Buttigieg polled an impressive 0% with Black voters. Zero. Percent. Do you know how kind and friendly Black voters are? Everyone gets like 3%, just for showing up! You have to work to go down from there! It's 2025, And I still run into people that don't know why Black voters don't like Buttigieg.

i don't have any easy answers to this, i just think it's really humiliating how much people who make games have this default expectation that they have to totally subjugate themselves to joe gamer and the whims of the market and act so blessed and grateful to be there the whole time

So saddened by the news that we have lost Alice Wong. It was an honor to know her and learn from her. May the lessons she shared continue to guide us for years to come.

Had a realization: Guillermo Del Toro is a better version of Tim Burton.

One way I have found to mourn someone is to set up a monthly sustaining donation to a mutual aid effort they cared about. If you can join me in honoring Alice Wong, @sfdirewolf.bsky.social with a sustaining donation today, please do. Thank you Alice, and I will not let the bastards grind me down.

“You’re not breathing” is a precursor to “Ocean waves,” and they mean the same thing: Fight, but take care of yourself, because the struggle is long, and if you let it destroy you, they win.

I looked at an MGS book with my partner and it has resulted in me playing MGS1 again, mostly to take environmental pics....

As @raeoflion.bsky.social and I wrote in this article featuring Rae's video: A report from the California Health Care Foundation found that 10 percent cut to HCBS programs would lead to $1 billion more in Medicaid spending in the state... due to the greater overall costs of institutionalization.

I cannot wait for Metroid Prime 5

The webpage for our upcoming book has the cover on it now which is enough of a milestone for me to write another post about the book we have coming out soon. www.politybooks.com/bookdetail?b...

reading this prose is like being suffocated with a pillow

If John Cassavetes was alive, he would have been an episode or two of The Sopranos.

Growing up in a time when “selling out” was the most shameful thing you could do and then being forced to live through the 2020s feels like being kicked in the head by a horse every day

Tree Fork

These emails really do highlight why rich folk are so impressed by ChatGPT.

Some old #Fallout fanart of some friends OCs. I was doing a card thing for like a week or two and then... never again.

Turns out A Serious Man is set in the same world as Burn After Reading.

Baldur’s Gate 2 is hitting me more than Baldur’s Gate. Maybe it is good to not follow the DnD model of level progression.

PSA: Thrasher (co-created by Brian Gibson from Lightning Bolt/Thumper) is now out on Steam instead of being trapped on the Quest and Vision Pro. Highly recommend it if you like either OSU!, Jeff Minter, Saliva nightmares, or those cat toys that are a fluffy thing on a stick. Also it is 9 dollars.

This is the correct point.

Tactics games based on a popular TTRPG.

If you don’t get it yet.

new horror story about men, women, animals and appetites please read and repost medium.com/@leighalexan...

we would all be better off if we all ignored the ny times or at least regarded it to be as truthful as the national enquirer

it is pretty darkly funny seeing posts like URGENT!!!! it is SUNDAY EVENING you must PUT DOWN YOUR DINNER and call your senator IMMEDIATELY to politely request they not press the big button marked "fuck you". this will not actually stop them from pressing the fuck you button. functioning democracy

Happy Circulatory System Walking Through the Kitchen Day! Don’t forget to smash your clocks!

If you’ve historically been a “vote blue no matter who” type, it’d be cool if you could use this moment to understand why vilifying leftists who actually do think it matters is basically a psyop you accidentally fell for. This is why people warn you about guys like Newsom.

The Democratic redline for months has been funding Obamacare. Rs want the Ds to bail them out? Fine, fund the ACA. But *that's not in the CR*. I feel like for years I've been yelled at for calling the ACA not good enough. Now the Democrats are just…giving up the ACA, so their planes aren't delayed?

Me whenever I play Baldur’s Gate: youtu.be/PDCZLsGLKaQ?...

Possession, Dogville, I Am Cuba, Beau Travail, and Army of Shadow. They all represent one way or another what I would like to experience in films.

JCO on Musk.

Bloodborne and Satoshi Kon’s Opus has so much common with Grant Morrison’s Animal Man. There is something about how he does Meta Fiction in Animal Man that works for me where sometimes it doesn’t work in other fiction.

Martin Scorsese and his daughter Francesca read Letterboxd reviews and guessed which Scorsese movie they were about.

I think if any financially successful lefty group or individual isn't using their money to feed people, there's no need to take them seriously.

Just turned on the Criterion stream just in time to catch the beginning of WEEKEND, and man, there should be more movies like WEEKEND.

Dick Cheney's big pumper has failed him for the last time

It’s truly tragic how many of these US war criminals like Cheney never face justice and die in their peacefully in their homes in their 80s and 90s. I want to be happy he is dead but I am not. The million people he killed didnt get the luxury to die how he did.

The lack of a "anti-Fox News" is not a story of market failure. Media plutocrats have chosen to leave money on the table because they don't want to support challenges to plutocracy.

ok sure. you hate andrew cuomo because he’s an unlikable slimy creepazoid with an adversarial relationship to the people he would govern…..but what if i told you a bunch of other slimy creeps with identical worldviews said to vote for him. does that change your mind

MANILA — An important piece of Filipino history missing for almost 90 years and thought to be lost forever was just found in Belgium. “Diwata ng Karagatan” is now the oldest surviving Filipino film! 🎞️🎞️ www.abs-cbn.com/entertainmen...

I am so upset. Last week Time Magazine solicited a piece from me on Zohran Mamdani & anti-Muslim hate. I pitched a framing re the dehumanization of Muslims & how Mamdani’s inclusive, socialist campaign in its content resists that. They agreed. I wrote the piece. 1/
