YouTube, Netflix, HBO, whatever platform does this: stop trying to launch another movie or show before I’m done with the current thing. I like fully experiencing the last scene, and hey, even seeing the credits and such. Stop it. Bad streamer, no!

The way that political operatives ventriloquize working class people like my family drives me absolutely apeshit. They are as weird and diverse as any other population. But instead we get “elite is when trans, working class is when pickup truck.” It sucks shit and it makes me angry.

conservative evangelicalism is the direct theological offspring of slaveholder christianity and it contains all of its pathologies, part infinity

I don’t mean the cowardly 102 Dalmatians they made. I mean a real sequel based on The Starlight Barking.

It is interesting to me* how this total military, geopolitical, & economic omnishambles is not being covered in the press with remotely the same fierce EPIC DISASTROUS FAILURE urgency that Joe Biden’s not 100% surgically clean withdrawal from 🇦🇫 was covered 🤔 [*It is not remotely interesting to me]

About time a prominent and respected YouTube content creator puts this wife beating degenerate in his place.

I am sure this total omnishambles of incompetence will be covered in the national media as a presidency-destroying scandal in <exactly> the same way that Joe Biden’s not surgically precise implementation of Donald Trump’s incompetently unplanned timetable for withdrawing from Afghanistan was.

Re supposed end of the Target boycott: it’s 100% bullshit. See statement below from an *actual* leader of the initial DEI boycott. Even if true (to repeat, it’s not!), it’s not up to any small group. Target has fixed nothing + compounded its DEI sins with ICE complicity. People are done with it!

can't be emphasised enough that no matter how empty Valve's defense of lootboxes sounds, the lawsuit is also a trojan horse to censor violence in games so it's not a good idea to side with it lol

Clint Eastwood has made some of his best films in the last decade or so and he turns 95 at the end of May, Tarantino’s self-imposed limitation on keeping it to ten films and burning through half a decade of his life deliberating how to “end” his career is a bit ridiculous

Nancy 2/22/26… 🪱WOIMS🪱

Me showing my future kids and/or nephews and nieces old adventure games and obscure animated films from Europe.

Because big game publishers and investors think that games are competing with Tiktok and Onlyfans and FanDuels instead of just producing art that can be consumed and built upon. The allure of infinite growth risks collapsing the whole thing. WE'VE SEEN THIS BEFORE!

Not a single day goes by that I'm not driven to the brink of howling madness by: A: Videogames being at their most diverse, creative and overwhelmingly numerous as ever. B: The gaming press being utterly gutted by vulture capitalists, leaving fewer people than ever to try and understand it all.

MAGA's rhetoric of western civilizational emergency is so weird. They look at ICE arresting grandmothers and they see the ancient Greeks defeating the Persians or the Franks stopping the Islamic invaders in 732. Everyone else sees ICE arresting grandmothers. newrepublic.com/article/2076...

It would be really nice if people, especially Dem electeds, would take a stand for us, because right now, we're rapidly heading towards a country where the government forces everybody to "appreciate their biological sex". Even if you're not trans yourself, is that a society you want to live in?

the first furry to create a porn friendly bank and payment processor will become the richest person on the entire planet

Dying restaurant chain needs to die faster.

as much as we like to write and/or read this story every few weeks, this guy is Bought And Paid For. the key part here is "many trump supporters feel" - he has the government on the podcast constantly. he does his best to avoid talking about anything that involves criticizing the government

This is definitely the slogan for me. Protecting Perverts Protects You. Whatever weird thing you are into, no matter what it is, a lot of people out there think you’re a pervert. Even if you hide it, even if it’s completely innocuous. Protect Perverts, or they will come for you too.

people will think anything on bluesky. "he's got thousands of followers! he must have good posts." no they aren't. that isn't true.

I'll go further. ALL MONEY SHOULD HAVE ANIMALS ON IT, NOT PEOPLE. Replace everyone with an animal. Fuck off, Queen Mother. Tough shit, Lincoln. It's hedgehogs and ducks now.

see the thing about writing the Silicon Valley villains of Neverland's End is that the real ones are so much worse in so many ways

The Mayor's Office wants a more affordable New York for game developers (and everyone else) aftermath.site/nyc-mayors-off...

The more censorious our society becomes, the more I respect John Waters and what he was doing with his films. "Oh, you call us degenerates? I'll SHOW you degeneracy!"

Go all the way back too, drag Dubya to court.

I think the only way the Democratic president breaks the cycle is by actually holding the Republicans accountable. So that is going to be THE thing I optimize my vote on: which Democrat promises the most aggressive show trials in US history of these traitors.

we remain firmly on track for 'republican president leaves the country an omnishambles, next democratic president is punished for not cleaning it up fast enough'

It shouldn't fall to trans people to explain to cis people why creating laws that effectively amount to "If you have or ever had a penis, you must behave this way; If you have, or ever had a vagina, you must behave this other way" is horrifically dangerous for everyone's rights.

GREAT NEWS!!!!! 😭❤️❤️❤️❤️

keep being struck by how 4kids injected all this hypercompetitive stuff into pokémon — "gotta catch em all", "i am destined to be the best guy at this that ever existed" — when the actual character of ash is much more like "haha birds are really cool"

I don’t think people who can’t accurately describe anatomy should be allowed to ban furry artists from posting certain kinds of anatomy.

Where are all those "Hillary was right about everything" people from the other day? This your fucking queen?

as someone who monitors right wing media, its under discussed right now but i can tell you conservatives are absolutely terrified of the way talarico is using religious messaging against them

again, if you put this into a work of fictional satire about the Presidency, people would think you're laying it on a little too thick and yet

Happy Mario Day specifically to dynamite T4T couple Birdetta and Wart Super Mario Collection (1993, Japan)

They've just removed most of this segment about the types of anthros that are allowed, but this wasn't some fluke. Those rules were carefully typed. It's just waiting in the wings now. The puritan payment processors still hold the reins and they can do whatever they like. Don't get too comfortable.

Happy 10th anniversary to this photo of some auld fella playing Demons Souls at an Arbys imgur.com/gallery/old-...

I ran Finnegans Wake through this AI and it hung itself.

I'm sorry but "we went too far in fighting racism" is not a take I consider serious from absolutely anyone who considers themselves on the left so long as mass incarceration, the eviction crisis, the school to prison pipeline, educational segregation, lead water pipes, and the economic draft exist.

I dont think internet "safety" people actually recognize what all the internet censorship and de-anonymization of the internet actually will mean until it directly affects them. They are actually as stupid as pro-ICE people who didnt understand what mass deportations look like until . . .

This is important if you don't want visa or MasterCard to tell you how to spend your money.

i’d like for some people to grapple with the fact that “the most important election of our lifetime,” if you actually mean it, implies that the governance period following it is also the most important governance period of our lifetime, and adjust their demands/expectations/behaviors accordingly

i genuinely cannot process how debased our ruling class is. these guys will walk around all day in shoes that don't fit rather than tell their boss he's wrong. this whole thing where they pretend a stupid evil guy with brain damage is qualified to run every aspect of everyone's life is unacceptable

I know calling reps is very nerve racking. You're not sure what's the right thing to say, and tbh having a script thrown at me makes things just as nerve racking. I called today, and I figured I'd write up a transcript of how my call went down. Hopefully it helps demystify the process

I never thought I'd see anything dumber than "female-presenting nipples," but "human-like knee orientation" from the new Subscribestar content policy fucking beats it.
