One of the more worrying parallels between the US today and the Nazi‘s takeover of Germany in 1933 is the role of politicized armed units. Having a paramilitary ICE, staffed with loyalists, is very close to the role of SS and SA in early Nazi Germany. And don‘t be fooled by the versions of SS/SA 1/

Crap I'm on the way to the airport but silver.afi.com Literally on the border of DC. Think there's a bunch of DC local theaters which would love this.

Are you kidding me

I finally cleaned up my messy cablework

ADHD is like: I have to take my pill. I’m going to keep repeating it so I don’t forget before I get to the kitchen. Pill. Pill. Pill. Pill Nye the Science Guy. Science rules. Inertia is a property of matter. What’s Bill Nye up to these days? Or the guy who played Beakman? Why am I in the kitchen?

very amused that to some folks this meme is my greatest contribution to game design

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

The problem isn't autism. It's fear and hatred of autism. The problem isn't trans people. It's fear and hatred of trans people. The problem isn't immigration. It's fear and hatred of immigrants.

I want to take a nap in that grass

Cannot emphasize enough: join us, delicious friend. Here's my profile: www.fallenlondon.com/profile/luci... Send me a calling card as soon as you unlock social actions; if I'm in London proper I'll joyfully eat your menaces, drink too much coffee, and flatter you over mushroom steak.

Do any of the professors or journalists or teachers also get their jobs back or nah

Cyberpunk dystopia but make it lame, example [error: overflow]

I wish Charlie Kirk was still alive because then I wouldn't have to hear about him every goddamn day

ok that said:

there is no disputing this; I have said if many movies since, "it was good, but it was no Mad Max: Fury Road"

As Adams predicted - the nutrimat machine will conduct a detailed scan of the users neural pathways and pleasure centres but no one knows why it does this because it then invariably delivers a cup of something that’s almost but not quite entirely unlike tea

I hope some newspapers use a crop where you can easily read the sign.

An update on The Dinner

Hey play this game it's fun.

I promise I will stop talking about Neurocracy now* As one last hurrah, I would love to see the below post gain some traction. If you can, please boost it and I shall be forever in your debt! *🤞😏

OH DANG /RUNS TO MY COMPUTER

so at the front desk at work there are no ad blockers the internet is bad Like, I grew up in the 90s and early 2000s, and the internet *as a whole* now looks like the worst malware infested pop up ad crap from those days. Only. Worse, actually.

Today I walked the picket line with @teamsters.bsky.social Local 210 members on strike in the Bronx. When Perrigo picked this fight, it wasn't just with these workers — it's with all of us. Because New York is a union town.

Universal childcare is on the ballot this November — but you don't need to wait to take action. Sign the @ny4childcare.bsky.social petition below calling for full-day care for NYC two-year-olds.

Henceforth we'll have to walk. But by the fuckin gods, these boots were made for walkin.

I love this analytical take on video game categorization from Antoine Mayerowitz and Julie Belzanne: hushcrasher.substack.com/p/taxonomy-o... Instead of trying to vibe-intuit the definition of an "indie" game, the authors analyzed the data from the perspective of game size and credits length

The most liberating part of my ADHD diagnosis was realising that I didn't have to listen to all the 'good advice' that wasn't working for me. I can have my own way to do things, and if people comment on it I can just say "my brain is weird and this is what works for it so sod off."

(1/2) Good futurist writing is a mirror, and Neurocracy reflects conversations that are already relevant today. It's not about the evils of innately corrupt technology, but about surveillance capitalism, corporate and state power, and the use of data and disinformation to marginalise and disempower.

That man was a disgrace to the Kirk family name, I tell you what. Thank goodness they get turned around by the time Starfleet shows up.

The right wing wanted *so bad* for this guy to be a Transgender Immigrant Leftist Assassin (tm) to give them an excuse to go full hot war But nope! Own goal! Again!

I am teaching students in a game writing course this fall who have no memory of GG. I’m very, very careful in how I handle that history *because* the playbook that was first used in GG is still active & aimed at folks like me — not because I teach & study games, but because I’m a professor at all.

no thoughts whatsoever, just melinoe's back muscles
