what year is it

Not Code Veronica 🤢

My broken keyboard is now functional as I’ve constructed an improvised key to access the capital letters. It’s a make shift solution.

The UK banning trans women from breast cancer screening gives the game away, they want trans people dead. It's social murder.

paul mccartney: this is my most personal album yet, i will finally lay bare my feelings about the biggest moments in my life paul mccartney's album: ba da doo doo do oh yeah

I love how AMC trailers are now 1. Trailers 2. Ad for Amazon 3. More trailers 4. AMC ad telling you you’re at a movie 5. AMC ad reminding you that you’re at a movie 6. 5-sec cut of Nicole Kidman reminding you you’re at the movies 7. TURN OFF YOUR PHONE 8. Did you know you’re at the movies

This rules. Absolutely the funniest possible outcome. The president of the United States filling in as the headliner of a concert because Milli Vanilli canceled.

This app is ran by people like this

a VRA map that recognizes discrete and compact communities and creates districts accordingly? illegal race discrimination. packing every black person they can find i to a single district crossing the whole state? colorblindness and equal protection thank you sam alito

Ok this is a truly great tweet

I think people should be very, very careful when leaning ChatGPT or any bot for help navigating relationship issues or any other interpersonal conflict/crisis: futurism.com/chatgpt-marr... futurism.com/artificial-i...

Most folks don't realize how central events like J6 were to the Jim Crow state. Dozens of unprosecuted coups & massacres—actively encouraged by those in power—revived the fundamental logic of the pre-emancipation state: that Black Americans had "no rights which the white man was bound to respect."

incredibly based minnesota

Have we tried turning the South off and back on again?

The kids are alright.

AI is making everything worse, including the price of a Switch 2

finally found something to make me laugh and it's this I've watched this like 30 times in a row

Sharing, without comment, British newspapers’ depictions of the only Jewish person currently leading a UK political party . Times. Mail. Telegraph. Sun.

Prime with ads. Just how Kubrick intended.

it's so fucked up that 'roguelike' now means you get three random upgrades at the end of a level instead of "occasionally the game will generate a gnome with a wand of death and obliterate you (in the event that you havent already died accidentally falling down a set of stairs while overencumbered)"

People act like not using GenAI is sooo hard when it is the NEUTRAL, coward position. Being ANTI-AI is the mildest of effort. I don't patronize bars, restaurants, foodtrucks, escaperooms, ANYTHING that uses it and it's EASY. I do not hide disdain for it with strangers, friends, even my chat. GET GUD

We got Nethack 5.0.0 before we got GTA6.

A really good interview with Tim about what we plan for this thing to be.

when we mourn le guin, we mourn one of our greatest writers & thinkers. but we also mourn one of our all-time greatest haters

It's because it breaks people's sense of justice and the social contract. If the world's richest man on his way to being the first trillionaire can just causally kill millions of people with no repercussions, it means there's no absolutely no societal accountability. Instead, he's rewarded for it.

the quality of each star trek show is directly proportional to how often you see the characters engaging in hobbies

Anyone who dislikes Baldur's Gate II this much has to be my soulmate.

Two new illustrations from the upcoming expanded edition of my Alien: Isolation book, which is being published by @lostincult.co.uk later this year. Art by @cdsart.bsky.social

I read a lot of conservative media, and let me just say that this Washpost house editorial is one of the most shameful pieces of unsubstantiated, free-market claptrap that has been published all year, by anyone. Barely a mention of the thousands of deaths caused by US aid cutbacks.

It's impolite to call Musk a genocidal white nationalist because "civility" in American discourse functions not as a neutral procedural norm but as an asymmetric weapon to shield the powerful from accurate moral characterization while policing the tone of those who object.

The horse op-ed is an instant classic. I can't tell you how much joy this piece gives me. It should be taught in every introductory writing class in no small part because the horse arguments are so compelling. "I have noticed that human children get to eat cake. But I am bigger than the children."

NEW: Thomson Reuters, the media company which is also a data broker, has long provided personal data for ICE tools, according to documents obtained by 404 Media and sources. There are also indications its data is now part of the Palantir system ICE uses to find which neighborhoods to target.

Some game I worked on is on sale.

the most vile pieces of shit

Another World: 20th Anniversary Edition is currently going for less than 2€ / a little over 2$ in GOG. Pretty accessible for the best game ever made.

My favourite thing in this genre is the DVDs from the original Dead Rising, which until about a year ago were somehow completely undocumented online

After Almost 25 Years, An Unreleased Dreamcast Game Cancelled In The Wake Of 9/11 Has Just Been Brought Back Online.

Taiwanese boxer Lin Yu-Ting was demonized and harassed because JK Rowling claimed she was male. Her boxing career was disrupted for over a year. Now, she's been cleared to compete as female after further "sex eligibility reviews." This is going to happen again. www.reuters.com/sports/olymp...

Reminder that you are being lied to about trans people and our healthcare on an unfathomable scale
