forgot the most important of the genre

Just so you understand, this is as if you prepared for argument in front of a panel that included Cookie Monster, and Cookie Monster asked you a question about cookies, and you had not thought about cookies in advance.

I've taught through some horrible things, but looking at my students today and knowing that the president is currently sitting at the Supreme Court, trying to strip half of them of their citizenship actually makes me want to throw up. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/01/u...

should I buy the 10 lb 22,650 cal chocolate bunny

This whole theory is three guys in a trench coat standing on each others' shoulders so they look bigger

really can't be said enough that this case was decided by the same court that decided plessy v. ferguson. if they could have found a plausible rationale to limit birthright citizenship they would have done it. but there is none! the text is as clear as constitutional language can be.

Star Trek: The Next Generation, possibly the best television show ever, is not about spaceships shooting lasers at each other, it is about a man who represents the best of us trying to teach his robot son to be human while debating whether humans even deserve to exist with his best frenemy, God.

Man, The older I get the more this shit annoys me. Why would you want to waste the magical imagination of world-building just to make guys shoot other guys. Are you 4 and just figured out how to make gun sounds with your mouth or what

i love the internet because instead of watching the news i can learn about the horrors in joke format

The citation here is a real button.

protesting in this outfit is a real “heads I win, tails you lose” moment when it comes to the optics

I tell everyone I can about this and no one believes me at first.

Pretty huge No Kings protest in Honolulu I was just walking over here to see Iolani Palace before my flight 😂

Sandra Wong, the great granddaughter of Wong Kim Ark, is preparing to march at the #NoKings Rally in San Francisco. Today is the 128th Anniversary of the SCOTUS decision affirming birthright citizenship.

The Woodlands, Texas, which is one of the most Republican Counties in the state. This is outside the Woodlands Mall. Crowd was double what it was in October 25. #NOKINGS #TRUMP

Paused MAD MEN while Ted Chaough’s partner was in the hospital and the HBO Max interstitial ad made it look like his dying wish was for a Whopper.

“I wish a Switch 2 was significantly cheaper than a PS5 (or Xbox Series X)”

Can we talk?

If they don't ask the judge to give them a break, what are we even doing here?

In fairness it’s not like the consequences of having a mad king unilaterally take the country to war on a whim were so incredibly obvious that you could see it coming from the 18th and 19th centuries www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

He just… said it?

if you can reinterpret the 14th amendment to mean something other than what it obviously means it is stone cold proof that there is no legislative language, no matter how clear, that cannot be twisted into “2+2=5” at the behest of the corrupt partisan hacks who call themselves “justices”

This is my go-to piece of media for if I ever have to explain to a child what the 90s were like

Funny thing about American mass media is how woke content is broadly popular, routinely pays for itself, and sometimes goes blockbuster, whereas right-wing content is a narrow niche that rarely reaches breakeven, never goes blockbuster, and usually requires immense subsidies for it to exist at all.

Julius Caesar introduced a coin with his name, image, and the title DICT PERPETVO; dictator for life. It was created in February of 44 B.C. and stopped being minted in March of 44 B.C., for some reason.

oh my god is it a calf, please tell me its a calf

Dreams DO come true: my photo of the ICE teens spread so far divorced of context or credit that Snopes dot com had to write a whole story confirming that I didn't make it with AI. 🥲

I just resigned from NASA. It breaks my heart to leave, but I’ve become convinced the best path forward is to do the best science I can, and that can’t be here anymore. I’m still in love with the promise of those four magic letters. Ad astra per aspera, and remember: Earth is the only good planet.

Despicable Me (2010)

I don’t know if it’s my favorite but it comes to mind often: theonion.com/it-almost-we...

Seeing a lot of people posting about Sora being dead :/ wish people were more cautious about sharing Kingdom Hearts 4 leaks

Additional fun fact, from a guy who does this almost every night: the term "revenge bedtime procrastination" is a direct translation of a Chinese term (報復性熬夜) that likely came into use by people experiencing China's "996" working hour system (9am-9pm, 6 days/week).

👌🏻👌🏻 It’s a big, beautiful wooden horse. Perhaps the biggest wooden horse ever built, the most beautiful. People are saying with tears in their eyes “Mr. President, that’s the most beaut horse ever built.” There’s laughing coming from inside so you know, it’s very wonderful and so we’ll see. 👌🏻👌🏻

DEI this, DEI that, DEI is killing video games, blah blah blah: for woke week I spoke with a recent DEI manager at a AAA games company, to find out what leading a diversity team at such a huge studio actually involves, and what the challenges are:

Everyone on Bluesky is exactly the right age to get this.

Theater/opera person, here: this is likely due to "bleed," which is a phenomenon we're literally trained for. When acting (or in this case, role-playing) a character for a good while and there are intense situations (such as an RPG finale), the emotions of the character can literally become yours!

It’s stuff like this that occasionally makes LawSky start tweeting with the enthusiasm of SportsSky

One week to go until submissions close for the Southeast Asian Games Showcase! If you're a Southeast Asian developer/studio, based in the region or diaspora (ask your parents, you never know), make sure you apply! And yes, it's FREE 🙌 (invoking the ultimate Asian summon)

oh my god this is extremely funny

Making the Strait of Hormuz safe for energy shipments would be a remarkable accomplishment, one that the world has never seen since the beginning of the month.

If this had happened before GDC I imagine attendance could have looked very different.
