Kamala Harris's actual 2024 policies:

Tienduizenden arbeidsongeschikten krijgen een extra lage WIA-uitkering, tot ver onder het bestaansminimum. Door nieuwe bezuinigingen komen mensen straks sneller in die sobere uitkering terecht, terwijl deskundigen er juist vanaf willen. buff.ly/NmSktN4

watched a yt video essay about the objectification of women in modern media and biopics and they used the term "torture corn" instead of torture porn and i think for the sake of what you are talking about you should take the demonetization to use the appropriate language. words mean things.

The old test in moral philosophy ‘what if everyone did that?’ is coming back to haunt us. LLMs only work because the information they are sucking up was not generated by LLMs. But as they drive more and more real researchers out of business they are building layers and layers on their own quicksand.

Kemi is the ur-British politician. Super weird, out of touch, but somehow the most cooked in ultra online politics focused on an alternative timeline where the Tories weren’t the main ruling party for most of her life.

This is funny (and obviously kinda bait-y) because like lmao bring it on? Some of us went through KotakuInAction and all that. nothing phases me man, I'm a rock but most of all it just shows a fundamental misunderstanding of criticism. which I believe is a kind thing kotaku.com/games-critic...

Many of the male editors I worked with back in the day have gone on to make more stuff with each other, but almost never involving the women they worked with. It's still the same voices, who don't realise how much room they take up and refuse to share. We're just not part of the old boys' club.

yes ICE has a lot of money now. thats true. you know what else is true? democrats spent the last 2 decades building the infrastructure that allows ICE to spend that money as quickly and efficiently as possible

Holy shit. The Biden DOJ investigated Ilhan Omar???

Try a couple decades of shitty emails ranging from simple insults all the way up to death threats from idiot fanboys who can't handle you giving a game "only" 8/10 and see which one puts more calluses on your soul, dummy. You'd fold in six months or less.

The success of Baldur’s Gate 3 partially lays in the hands of critics, reviewers, content creators, and other folks who created the world’s most friendly cultural on-ramp for a vast public to engage with a fiddly, weird, mechanically hostile game. Have a little humility.

Just started doing new data analysis and I know I keep saying this, but: I really, really don't think people appreciate how much this moral panic was a deliberate and extremely expensive invention.

If you want to learn about the viciously racist history of Border Patrol, I recommend Kelly Lytle Hernandez's "Migra!" It's really fascinating because Hernandez looks at the class and race implications of border patrol and who joined. www.ucpress.edu/books/migra/...

DHS and DOJ were *already* monitoring all your big Signal chats, they have been doing it for years. All unvetted chats have feds in them. And it's safe to assume every 20th person in a vetted chat is a fed too. Don't let it stop you from organizing.

This is unconscionable. Evil. But it happened in May 2023, when Biden was president. So no, we don’t “reform immigration detention,” we destroy ICE, CBP, and DHS. We can’t reform this soul sickness.

a lot of Democratic officials have asked the protesters to be careful to not "give Trump what he wants" and I think it's fair to ask them to do likewise

okay man

i have an elegant solution to this whole 'video game review' problem

It is literally false that the Jews being hunted by Nazis were citizens, because the first step toward genocide was stripping them of citizenship and making them stateless. As Arendt reminds us, citizenship is a legal category created to facilitate a machinery of exclusion of the out-group.

Idk if I was in leadeeship at a studio that released a wildly successful and critically acclaimed RPG that made me insanely rich the last thing I'd do is whine or post on social media ever again but maybe I'm just built different.

i also think game critics should score

The ICE agent who murdered Renee Good was part of Trump’s ICE, Biden’s ICE, and Obama’s ICE.

Sesame Street is now offering tips for parents on post-trauma comfort because the federal government is physically and mentally abusing our country's children.

In other words, they need to know who they are so they can sick the government on them

Lads. You've invented Rumbelows.

every time i see another gestapo video it reaffirms my strongly held beleif that everything I'm not allowed to say should happen to ice agents should happen to ice agents, and if there was justice in the world it would

ICE kidnapped an Angolan asylum seeker and father of four after he visited his newborn child at the hospital

Need help making sure my account doesn’t go into the negatives when my credit payment processes on Wednesday & and in case I need to take more Lyfts to/from work Hoping I scoop one of these new jobs soon, if you can help but can’t do PayPal, lemme know www.paypal.com/paypalme/hak...

I'm sorry I can't stop thinking "all democrats know how to do is fund police, do means test and lie" on repeat now

"most men either neglect or despise women and either support or are bystanders for sexual assault and murder to the point where hegemonic manhood is inextricable from misogyny" is like just an elementary observation if you are a woman and some kind of existential personal attack if you are a man

when the siblings also got out

when trump rolled out the line about haitians eating people’s pets during the debate kamala just laughed it off. she didn’t defend them, didn’t stick up for them, didn’t say shit because her immigration platform was she was going to Really do border security. we were always going to wind up here

Murphy repeatedly bragged in public that "we followed Republicans' instructions to the letter" on drafting the far right immigration bill.

A lot more people should know about the bravery Marimar Martinez displayed in the midst of Chicago’s occupation and the murder of two observers in MSP. They tried to kill her, shooting her 5 times, and it’s a miracle she’s alive to push for transparency like this after being persecuted by the DOJ.

New: DHS now says that two weeks of missing surveillance footage from ICE's Broadview Detention center isn't "missing," it was never recorded in the first place and thus can't be produced in an abuse lawsuit. An utter shitshow: www.404media.co/dhs-says-cri...

You can conclude that these people simply do not understand how negotiating works - that you start by shooting for the moon and force them to talk you down to something like this, extracting pain for every concession - or that they just don't want more than this.

Yeah they're all Big Politics Geniuses, I'm just some idiot, but how about starting with "Zero out the budget and they all get prosecuted" and work your way down to stuff like this list and "OK we'll only cut their budget in half." ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Literally twelve days ago Gavin Newsom apologized to Ben Shapiro for saying that ICE was "state-sponsored terrorism" and now he's calling Bovino a Nazi? He's a power-hungry psychopath who doesn't actually believe in anything.

My report from Minneapolis, about the things you'll never see. newrepublic.com/article/2057...

Oh so NOW Trump wants to keep Epstein away from teenagers

Even if this was true (it is not), but even if it were true, is the demand in the streets to get pictures of the president frowning? Or is the righteous demand screaming inside your heart to dismantle and demolish the systems that made these shootings possible and inevitable.

"CBP stays at the border" might sound like a win, but keep in mind that this is what "the border" means to them www.aclumaine.org/know-your-ri...

Jake Tapper will be offended if you call these concentration camps.

So many people are volunteering to defend their community in Maine and they are going to need national support soon

I think a lot about Parmy Olson's observation that AI companies actively push everyone to talk about existential risk, because it distracts from more prosaic current day concerns like copyright theft, conditions for data workers, energy & water use, and their financial situation

It is funny how delusional Europeans are.

"Up to 380 people may have drowned attempting to cross the Mediterranean last week". The West's normalisation of the mass death of black Africans (because that is predominantly who these people are) will never be less than devastating.
