Merriam-Webster got jokes. Nicely done. #GroundhogDay

I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.

"March for Billionaires" is the stupidest thing I've ever heard of. Clearly orchestrated by a group of edgy bois looking to be provocative. Here's an idea: Have the billionaires march for billionaires. We'll come watch.

One of the more interesting aspects of Critical Drinker's response, specifically to "You are Republican/MAGA: Star Trek was never yours" is he doesn't refute the implication that he is Republican/MAGA, whereas he used to claim he was "in the center." Glad he's at least abandoned that pretense.

Quite appropriate as we begin Black History Month. Let us be clear, despite the Regime's attempt to redact it, Black History is American history. Thanks.

It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall. But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

Back in Q3 2025, Paradox Interactive CEO Fred "Pester" Wester claimed that "those who have played [Bloodlines 2] were happy with what they'd seen..." & promised a huge deep dive at during their Q4 steram. They didn't do one. They talked about the write-down, blamed it on everything, then moved on.

The reason Schumer & Senate Dems negotiated a two-week stall is they're fine with ICE. They just don't like the pushback they're receiving for supporting the Laken Riley Act, funding ICE, & backing down last year during the shutdown. They figure in two weeks we'll have moved on. They're wrong.

I hope Hasan Piker stays on Youtube after the Twitch ban ends. I'd love to be done with Twitch once and for all.

Who is responsible for this retcon?

Ilhan Omar, badass as always.

Woke is back

If you have the misfortune to witness an ICE murder and get away, this is what you do. Get away. Get a lawyer. File a declaratory statement under oath, and then go to ground.

Alex Pretti died a hero.

ICE agents killed a man and are disappearing the witnesses.

Per this report ICE has detained several witnesses

Iceland at Davos

No one can be watching this Davos speech and reach any conclusion but that the President of the United States is mentally disturbed and that something is deeply wrong with him. This is both embarrassing and extremely dangerous.

Winter throat and allergies have been wrecking me the last two months. Still planning to celebrate my Bloodlines 21st anniversary on Friday! Nothing short of a sabbat incursion will stop me from reminding that the aughts were better and BL was even better then. ('90s > all ... just sadly no BL)

US protests condemn ICE killing of Renee Good and ‘a regime that is willing to kill its own citizens’

you either dress like a vtmb npc or you dont leave the house

FWIW I haven't played Bloodlines 2. The absolute last thing I would do is give Paradox Interactive $60 in gratitude for the 5 years of unnecessary pain they caused Bloodlines fans. Which says nothing of the whole toxic workplace scandal and all that. PI triggers my boycott reflex. Hard.

Julian Nubaby (2016-2025) I was honored to be your human. Thank for you for being my Nubaby. I will miss you so dearly. Give my love to Miles. Until I see you both again. Run free, kitty.

Julian Nubaby has given us almost nine months on a three-to-six month diagnosis. We've treasured those moments & not taken them for granted. Now staring down the barrel of making the humane call, my inner child has deftly bypassed various mental blocks to remind me how unfair it all is. He's right.

Whoa, people seem pretty upset about the Cracker Barrel logo change, me I think it's pretty cool 🦇

it's wild how the most basic ass Mr Roger's position is now considered too far for liberal discourse. No child should go hungry, and ensuring a child goes hungry is evil. That's not a political position, it's an entry level understanding of the world around you

I love this notion that VTMB perfectly captures the world of 2004, before things went all woke and gay. We aren't playing the same game. VTMB is gay af and woke for its time. And developed by a company founded by two leftists and a gay man (who may himself also be a leftists).

Throwing a sandwich at a cop: felony. Beating a cop unconscious with a flag pole: tourist behavior.

Happy birthday, Miles! You would've been 15 today. Julian is enjoying ice cream and treats on your behalf. We love you!

Be on the lookout for media describing Trump’s military invasion of D.C. as "controversial," "unorthodox," "unprecedented," and the like. Describing it as unusual rather than horrific glosses over the seriousness of the situation we are in.

Today, August 10, in 1988, the front page story of the New York Times is about 11-year-old hacker Dade “Zero Cool” Murphy, who brought down 1,507 computer systems, causing a 7-point drop in the New York Stock Exchange (Hackers, 1995) #HackThePlanet

@meggsomatic.tv Are we going to get a 21st anniversary VTM:B stream in a few months? Bloodlines will be old enough to drink. So a few friends, a little Don't Sue or 666 Proof? Could be fun, right?

You nasty, Hasan Piker But congrats on lifting the curse, I guess...and French kissing yourself...

Not a day goes by I don't miss the internet of the '90s. It was completely opt-in, a place you escaped to rather than being perpetually connected, and it was populated by people who knew a world without it. When I die, I hope that's where I go. Back to AIM, ICQ, Netscape and MUDs.

Another earthquake or am I losing my mind? #Astoria

Please consider giving to the Astoria Food Pantry, which serves immigrants in Queens, many of whom have been prevented from going to work because of fear of ICE raids. The line of those waiting for food was down the block when I passed by today. www.astoriafoodpantry.com/donate-money...

I hope Jesse Ventura is having a good day today, as a treat.

They think you're stupid.

America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home. Happy Independence Day. No Kings in America.

can we please not start quibbling about “is the word shylock antisemitic or is it just fine?” who are these people who’ve never heard it used as a slur?

Today, Palestinian photojournalist Ismail Abuhatab was killed along with 19 other Palestinians, most of them journalists, artists, and social media activists, in an Israeli airstrike on al-Baqa Cafe on the beach in western Gaza.

The absurd crackdown on Bob Vylan and Kneecap is only going to make them more popular with the majority around the world and bring focus to Israel's war crimes in Gaza and the horrific abuses by the IDF against Palestinians. Israel has lost the culture war, the narrative, and the moral ground.
