TIL that Dungeon in French is Donjon 😂

Check out Aaron and my conversation on his podcast!

New podcast episode! I spoke with @homecrust.bsky.social, a game designer, writer, and narrative designer with a ridiculous variety of experience writing and designing for indie, mobile, and AAA games. He is also a hobbyist blacksmith! We talked about that too! www.makegamesdrinkcoffee.com

You can say "I'm going to Hell oh well" in a British accent and it sounds like you're saying "I'm going to L-O-L" in an American accent

"Nerds are weak!" Idk, I'm currently reading a book called AI For Games. It's 1,010 pages long, and every time I read it, I get a workout because it's so heavy

As much as I love Udemy courses, I can't help but pronounce it "You Dummy" in my head

Dudes will say they don't believe in multiple genders or pronouns and then call themselves an alpha male

Hi, my name is Broccoli Rabert but my friends call me Broccoli Rabe

There is a distinct disadvantage to having tinted windows and it's that people can't clearly see me giving them the bird

Yes, Trump and Co. will try to illegally keep power beyond 2028. We know this because we already saw them try in 2020-21. No, it’s not legal or Constitutional. Anyone even hinting otherwise is wrong. Regardless, we have more pressing problems than 2029. There, everything relevant said. Move on.

"Oh, you're looking for the giantslayer?" I ask with a smile. "Well, you've found him. I've laid with a lot of giants."

"You can't be that kid standing at the top of the waterslide, overthinking it. You have to go down the chute." - Tina Fey

I can’t remember who started this, but I find myself seeing everything now as “how western media would write about this if it were another country” “Trump regime instigates extrajudicial detention and deportation of anti-genocide dissidents despite human rights concerns”

tesla car vehicles will have more legal protections than trans people

Wow, egregious, just up there doing free marketing.

Epic idea

EXCLUSIVE: Sources tell WIRED that Elon Musk has wanted a government shutdown in part because it would potentially make it easier to eliminate the jobs of hundreds of thousands of federal workers.

I haven't seen a shred of evidence that Khalil supports Hamas. Meanwhile, we all have proof that a man was kidnapped by ICE, and for some reason the discourse focuses on whether the kidnapping victim ever said anything mean.

Musk, like Trump, doesn’t lie to be believed. He lies to be repeated, which creates belief. Why wouldn’t they when even the fact checks go out of the way to spread their lies first and foremost?

The US greatly outpaced the world economy under Biden and is lagging the world economy under Trump. The media lied to voters and told them that the opposite was true and would be true if they elected Trump. Trump crash economy, hail to the thief.

NEW: White House says the arrest and deportation of student activist & legal US resident, Mahmoud Khalil, is a blueprint for more. The final line here is chilling. The White House specifically says Khalil was not breaking the law. No evidence, no due process, no crime. He was just disappeared.

NEW — Per Homeland Security & State Department sources, the Trump administration is staking its entire case to deport Mahmoud Kahlil not on whether he broke a law, but on Secretary of State Marco Rubio “personally” deciding Khalil would “compromise” US foreign policy.

The Democrats already know those policies are popular. The reason they don't embrace them isn't some misguided mistake, it's because they're a center-right austerity party who are ideologically opposed to those policies. They keep veering right because that's what they actually support!

After Donald Trump and Elon Musk created an aviation crisis that has killed dozens so far, the Trump led FAA has gifted a federal contract to Musk’s company Starlink, worth billions. Former FAA officials also said that they were alarmed. #OpCanary #3E #EndOligarchy

Elon Musk received $38 billion in government contracts, loans, & tax credits. Your tax money built his wealth. #OpCanary #3E #EndOligarchy

No rare minerals for the US. France & the EU need to step up and protect Ukraine and its resources. The Kremlin is planning to loot those minerals alongside Trump & Musk, which they need so they can invade Poland and the Baltics next. That's the bottom line. Trump, Musk and Putin are the enemy.

Here's a list of DOGE staff, assembled and annotated by my colleagues at BI. Whatever you do, please don't share it. www.businessinsider.com/doge-staff-l...

Nailed it 🏆

Just got a tip from a guy at the FAA. You'll never believe who is still getting new government contracts while all the contracts at the Department of Education and USAID and other agencies are being nuked from orbit.

Edward Coristine, of Musk’s (DOGE), launched an image-sharing website in 2021 that featured custom web addresses that referenced the sale of child rape media, racial slurs, and rape. He swore he would protect the identities of users who used the site to share images. #3E #EndImpunity #OpDeathEaters

Trump has dismissed the director of the Office of Government Ethics. David Huitema, the former director, played a key role in vetting Trump administration appointees for conflicts of interest.

Can't believe the amount of heat we used to get for downloading an mp3 when every tech company is downloading the sum total of human expression to sell a scromited version back to us

Just saw a farmer say, "you don't have to admit you were wrong, you have to admit you were lied to, " and idk that seems like a good framing to call people in

Microsoft's own research confirms something that was already pretty obvious: relying on a text generating machine to come up with answers erodes critical thinking, and is a method favoured by those who never liked doing critical thinking in the first place advait.org/files/lee_20...

A few more notes from Indivisible: * Ask for the staffer's name * Don't bother with Representatives/Senators outside your district or state - they don't care about non-constituents * Call separately for each of your issues * Call only once about each issue as they'll only log you one * Go in person

Here is a script you can use for any issue. Find your reps' # at reps.fyi or 5calls.org. Every time you see a news story that horrifies you: call, or something else about it. It matters to say what you believe. You are setting a norm.

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Senate confirms Russell Vought as White House budget director, putting Project 2025 architect at helm of powerful office.

the correct response to Musk buying Twitter was always to abandon it and work to get every influential voice you could to do the same you cannot out-post someone who is willing to use every lever that exists to destroy your own influence and expand his own
