Due to a recent bout of scurvy* I've been fighting off, we weren't able to record on Sunday as we usually do, but we plan to record tomorrow - so there's still time to let us know how 2025 was for you in gaming! *It's not actually scurvy

Harry Potter fan in 2026: yes the author is a Nazi with ties to Jeffrey Epstein but I don't see any of that when I buy my annual wand at the Wizarding World in Florida

No new pictures. Where are you mentally

Far-right Americans want you to believe that having nice things is impossible, and that serving billionaires is the only thing you can do. This is a lie. The rest of the world has solved many problems Republicans pretend are impossible.

I've seen an uptick in people streaming minecraft lately & i just want to remind folks that its one of the games listed on the BDS list to boycott for palestine. And though you may not be giving them $ by playing if you own it, you may be encouraging sales from your community with your influence 🇵🇸

This shit hits like a sledgehammer right now. It's not even remotely an exaggeration.

Hear me out...

pizzagate and qanon were not onto something, they were orchestrated by pedophiles to make accusing people of pedophilia make you look insane so that they could continue doing pedophile shit. fucking christ

Me trying to entertain myself while the horrors persist

"A secret network of rich child traffickers wanted to avoid accountability for their sex crimes, so they stoked baseless hatred against innocent minorities" simultaneously sounds like an outlandish conspiracy theory and the most obvious possible thing in the world.

Like holy shit "Jeffrey Epstein is the reason /pol/ exists" is a maximally insane statement, but at the same time it also makes the last fifteen years make so much more sense.

Still can't believe the latest Epstein Files release just casually confirmed the anti-SJW movement was planned by pedophiles. "The entire reactionary anti-woke backlash was masterminded by child traffickers" is the kinda shit I'd say as hyperbolic agitprop, but it was true the whole time.

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

A lot of people predicted, based on his past actions & stated beliefs, that Trump would go full Hitler if nobody stopped him. We were called hysterical and told to calm down.

my grandmother, an Auschwitz survivor, was Anne Frank’s neighbor in Amsterdam, and Oma thinks this comparison is perfectly apt

There's a video out there of ice lynching a man. Don't watch it. It will not help you or others to traumatize yourself. Spend the time you would have spent watching it/wanting to vomit and scream making a donation to somewhere in Minnesota, or if you can't, researching where you can help locally.

Profiles in no-courage Dem Reps who voted to fund DHS/ICE 🩸 Henry Cuellar (Texas) 🩸 Tom Suozzi (New York) 🩸 Vicente Gonzalez (Texas) 🩸 Laura Gillen (New York) 🩸 Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (Washington) 🩸 Jared Golden (Maine) 🩸 Don Davis (North Carolina)

For me, I've found donating to organizations and mutual aid groups or to people who just need some extra money to get by is a real sanity-saver in these times of feeling helpless but full of rage.

As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.

ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

in trying to understand what makes ICE and CBP so dangerous right now, it is tempting to imagine some new lack of training or experience or professionalism—and not grapple with the truth that a white nationalist movement has put more power and force behind their existing mission

Every representative who voted yes voted for more brutalization of our neighbors, more kidnapping of our children, more trampling of our rights, and more murder from this government.

The kiosk demo of Mario Kart DS contained "Flesh Trucks" due to a spelling error. While the error was fixed in the final version, looking at the preview image for GCN Mushroom Bridge very closely shows that the truck still has an L. As such, the memory of the Flesh Truck remains.

Danish and Greenland ministers just left the White House. It did not go well. I have a long discussion here of Trump's attempt to get Greenland and why it could lead to World War III. (Gifted.) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

REALLY? The AI model that is generating exploitative, abusive images of women and children, is getting integrated into the military?
