I hate that I've now learned a new thing our tech overlords have bestowed on incredibly dumb people to toss into the discourse but here's some funny tweets about it

A reminder that you don't need to understand everything you see

We've gotten so many of these pieces where a liberal engages in a good-faith effort to understand Trump voters. Every time, they discover that there's no deeper sympathetic reason they hold their views. They're just misinformed and hateful. My own efforts have found this too.

I know this reinforces a narrative about condescending leftists calling all conservatives bigots but I'm sorry, every form of data — anecdotes, polling and public statements by conservatives — indicate that these are the main drivers. It's a doomed quest to keep looking for good underneath evil.

There is no more decorum. Do not aim high when they go low. Talk about them exactly how they deserve to be talked to. We had years of “civil” conversation and they upped their rhetoric. It didn’t work and it will never work.

this is what deadlock characters look like to me

"People are getting free food and they might not deserve it!" who gives a shit man literally one of the unambiguously good things about the 21st century is we have lots of excess food production and we have the capacity to have hunger be significantly less important in decision making.

There's something deeply disturbing about EBT/SNAP hate to me. Like just truly bone blanching shit.

“some people abuse SNAP” your soul is rotten

And I’m listening

just for musk, thiel, and sachs alone, no group of immigrants has done more damage to our institutions and cultural heritage than white south africans. a devilish people

We have so much food we're THROWING IT AWAY. Like, okay, I am actually pretty sympathetic towards veganism, as a philosophy, but one of the reasons why I have a hard time taking it seriously in personal life is walking down the meat isle of the grocery store: There's SO MUCH MEAT.

“what radicalized you” idk paying attention

Yes, they can be kind, generous, and loving - to the people they recognize as human, who they see as fellow human beings deserving of goodness. For the rest of us, they have only spite, hatred, cruelty, and an abiding joy in seeing our suffering.

this halloween... Something Printed This Way Comes FAXOWEEN: FRIDGE OR TREAT FRIDAY @ 8PM EST the infernal contraption returns. on this Faxoween, you godda help me! I GOT NO CANDY! so instead i will be greeting viewer-sent Trick'R'TreaterZ with sweetest treat of all: your FAXES

30 years later and still honestly chasing the high of the theoretical videogame i imagined in my child brain after seeing this commercial

They are also intentionally conflating machine-learning and generative AI slop to confuse and try to make GenAI seem necessary. Google Maps traffic stuff is machine learning, not GenAI, for example. Auto-correct is too. Don't let them make you lose the thread. GenAI slop is slop.

I agree with Miss Rachel “I want my taxes to pay for oatmeal cream pies. These are so good. Just not bombs”

how exactly am i supposed to buy a game knowing that the entire team has been laid off before it's even out

the problem with modern videogame rpgs is they don't have quests like the one in phantasy star, where you need to bribe a governor with cake, but the only cake shop in the entire solar system is on a different planet, at the bottom of a four-floor dungeon, behind a locked door.

Casual reminder as snap benefits are fucked but if you witness someone steal at the store no you didn't Be more like the kid from terminator with this dope ass mullet

this is the best movie i've ever seen

Remember: the only reason Garland was in a position to pull this was because Obama put him up for the Supreme Court as an asinine "see, the GOP won't even give a hearing to a Republican!" gesture and Biden then made him AG as a SICK BURN to the Republicans, a one-two of irresponsible smug bullshit

My absolute favorite thing about Rise of Skywalker is the character Ochi (who you won't recall because he's barely mentioned/featured but he ties the ENTIRE forward momentum of the plot together) This is someone's explanation of Ochi and what he did

It was an honor and pleasure to meet and interview @gengorohtagame.bsky.social this past weekend. I truly appreciated the opportunity and hope that you all enjoy this piece.

Every time I start feeling despair I am reminded that many, many people want to help, actually.

The people yearn for (democratic) socialism (this one will make you cry)

Just to recap: In the last few hours, Israel invaded the town of Blida, Lebanon, executed a municipal worker in his sleep, then left. This is what happens to a country that has a “ceasefire” with Israel.

MICROSOFT: We'll keep providing Windows 10 security & service updates but you gotta fork over 70USD for the first year, 140USD for the second year, and 210USD for the third year. You bitch. You fucking piece of shit MUSCLEFUR VTUBER: Open Powershell and hit three keys to do it completely free

lmao, the irony

Mexico Versus Nazis is a theme that’s really resonating with me of late

i desperately need the world to understand that y’shtola is not the mom of the scions. she is the wine aunt. the mom is urianger.

those of you who are afraid of aging, please understand that one of the huge blessings of middle age is arriving at this exact station

Again this is the exact opposite of what is happening. The power structure is delighted with him which is why he’s getting a friendly interview from yet another recent presidential staffer. His big fuckup was trying to do an oppo dump on PSA and assuming people wouldn’t be mad about Nazi shit

This case underscores how SCOTUS made it impossible to hold immigration cops accountable for the abuses you see in all those videos. A federal task force cop manufactured evidence to put an innocent woman behind bars for two years. Because of SCOTUS-conferred immunity, the case never got to a jury.

after all of this, i never want to see people compare xbox's downfall to sega's ever again. sega made games and cared about their creatives. Isao Okawa gave all his money to his staff just to make sure they kept going. everything microsoft has done in the past year has proven them scum of the earth.

oh no 😓

much fairly said about the japanese elric designs, but have you seen the french one with the eyeshadow

Unfortunately I don’t believe in using the word “zoomies,” but yes. Your dog is popping off.

Again, not the most important here, but I'm begging for a journalist to figure out how/why NPS put up a Confederate statue DURING A GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN. How is this "essential" when food stamps are not?

lol

i love the logic of “it we purposely misunderstand a cultural difference people will start to turn on zohran mamdani!”

Finished Bioshock 2 and goddamn does it make Bioshock Infinity look so much worse. And it was already real bad! Bioshock 2 rates as "an honestly kinda mid game that I still enjoyed." Definitely the best of the series.
