Mamdani is proving what we all suspected. The Democrats didn’t want him to win because they knew he’d succeed and show how it’s not just possible to fix things- it’s actually pretty fucking easy.

Every day Mamdani comes out and is like "hey guys, I turned off the orphan-crushing machine. Literally just had to flip a switch. Took less than 5 minutes." After decades of dem leadership pissing and moaning and fundraising about how complex an issue it is and how difficult the process is etc

piracy is the only option left. like there’s no legal way left to use the software you rely on because the company that owns it is hell bent on killing it.

this is your mission. our pedophile president needs you to wake up at 5 am and don 30 lbs of tactical gear you bought off amazon to sit in a chevy tahoe in the parking lot of the elementary school where you kidnapped a five year old kid to intimidate his teachers. good luck soldier

Adobe has spent over twenty years torturing and maiming Flash.

I AM FURIOUS. Adobe Animate remains an industry standard for TV animation. Star Trek: Lower Decks was made in Animate. Haunted Hotel was made in Animate. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic was made in Animate. And because you can't buy a permanent licence anymore, it'll just be gone.

the whole country is on fucking fire and Mamdani is just over there going down the checklist of shitty things no one should have allowed rich people to get away with, and honestly it gives me hope for a better world.

This is happening in my city as well. The city council and mayor voted to put up signs but the police aren't enforcing them. Told us to "document and send the info to the city". The burden of protecting citizens keeps falling on the citizens. Lots of folks asking what their tax dollars even do.

[upbeat zohran voice] I'm here at the Palace of Justice in Nuremberg, Germany, where 80 years ago some important progressive work started [smash cut] but hasn't ended. So here's what we're doing:

“All over my neighborhood we keep finding empty cars, the glass shattered into diamonds on the snow, the people missing. Tiny private automotive kristallnachts, everywhere and ongoing.”

Don’t worry guys, everything is very cool and normal at the Wegman’s parking lot!

Impeachment is the only Constitutional check Congress has against a lawless president and talking about it would be a good start to reasserting Congressional power in the future. Assuming of course Congress wants to do that

You do it to build public pressure on other members of Congress to support it, which is the first step of achieving it. Avoiding mention of it and helping maintain the veneer of normal government functioning (when in reality we're in crisis) does the opposite

This one is great and Grayson is not underselling it how it basically connects to every social issue of the 20th (and lol also 21st) century

Why do your organizing over Signal? So that you don't do your organizing on an app that hasn't been tested or reviewed, run by a guy who doesn't tell his users about data breaches and security problems. www.ibtimes.co.uk/stopice-hack...

Standing O for shirking the civic responsibility to prevent preventable disease. Just taking a sledgehammer to science, medicine, common sense, and good social governance.

A note from our editors:

1/ BREAKING: Government documents reviewed by ProPublica identify Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa, 43, and Customs and Border Protection officer Raymundo Gutierrez, 35, as the two who fired their weapons during the deadly encounter with Alex Pretti in Minneapolis.

Went to the glorious Art Shanty Projects out on a frozen lake in Minneapolis. One of my favorites was Disinteshanty, which invites you to build onto it or destroy it. It began as a fully enclosed structure but more people have chosen destruction.

4 federal agents pull over an elderly US citizen for the suspected crime of being brown, break her car window, throw her to the ground, then drive off after they find her US Passport in her purse. The Salem Police, when called, say there’s nothing they can do. www.salemreporter.com/2026/01/31/u...

They're still around every block planning to assault your neighbors. Families still cannot leave their homes to get groceries or work to pay their rent. There is no sign of change - don't let your guard down and keep supporting those in need.

Hijacked my ocean shoreline effects to make spatialized ocean sounds. There's an ocean "speaker" that follows the camera, staying just off-shore. I tweak its panning strength so it sounds like it has a rough direction, not coming from a single point. Sound on! 🔊 #GodotEngine #gamedev #indiedev

better than nothing I will believe CPD will do this when I see them do it and not before I will believe Eileen will actually do something about LEO abusive/illegal conduct when I see her office file charges and not before

Continuing my 5 year career plan of: Just be the only person left to do the job, as everyone else brain fucks themselves with gen AI, or repeated COVID infections, or whatever comes next.

So an odd thing here is that if you say "an unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume" your point is to communicate "it is not really Batman" but the problem is that the real Batman, within the fiction of the comic book "Batman", is also, literally, an unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume

Is The Tetris Company going to celebrate what should be "Tetris Month"? In February 2026, the four weeks are lined up perfectly as four lines - which is exactly what a Tetris is! The last time this happened was in 2015, and the next two times will be in 2037 and 2043. #Tetris

Just experienced the most intense tear gassing of my life by federal officers outside the ICE facility in Portland where marchers gathered. There was no fast exit as they indiscriminately threw loads of gas and flash bangs. Children were in the crowd screaming. @oregoncapitalchronicle.com

Not a huge deal (hopefully), but an important lesson to not automatically trust a website because it aligns with your ideology.
