As if people don't remember what football and its (mostly) white fans did to Black athletes just taking a knee during NFL games?! What is the plan to support these athletes if they make this move?

Seven ICE agents surrounded four workers without a warrant or legal authority. The workers called a local sanctuary hotline, advocates came running. ICE left empty-handed. Hit ❤️ if you love seeing everyday people stand up & win. Read the incredible story here: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/thirty-six...

Michelle Obama warned everyone. Kamala Harris warned everyone. Hillary Clinton warned everyone.

Mina the Hollower finally launches later this month. gameinformer.com/2026/05/06/m...

Its threads like this that show why Karen is one of the best follows across social, regardless of platform and topic. Glad we got to share some time together on the mats. Come train! I have a Gi waiting for you 🫵🏿

Trump is temporary. The damage he’s doing is permanent.

The supreme court betrayed Black voters, they betrayed America, and they betrayed our democracy.” - Barack Obama

Chelsea Green announced that she has undergone a heart procedure during her time away from the WWE ring.

Americans are capable of understanding complex issues. That is not the problem. The problem is that Democrats are TALKING about important issues but none of that yapping leads to ACTION. That is the true issue here.

Our latest entry in the Backlog Bandits series. Here are the video games that are up next on our list....when we have time to get to them: invertedcontrol.substack.com/p/backlog-ba... #VideoGames #Gaming

I need wrestling fans to understand how bonkers it is that WWE is asking talent to take pay cuts when the talent still get a minuscule fraction of revenue compared to other major sports

Mariachi Legends is hitting #Xbox GamePass this year?! Big news. Can't wait to play that game. Didn't realize it was coming so soon.

The fact that The New Day are being talked about on video game podcasts after news of their #WWE departure lets you know exactly how important this trio has been to the business.

My hair has reached the point where it is so long it is randomly wet and I’m like….WTF…”WHY IS MY HAIR WET?!”

Republicans will stop at nothing to seize and retain power forever. The only way to defeat them is to beat them at their own game.

Clarence Thomas is where he is because he was afforded all the benefits given to POC that he is and has been taking away from the rest of us. Ginni was a major player in planning n executing 1/6. I loathe them both w a vengeance I cannot fully describe.

Louisiana Republicans have eliminated a city clerk position in New Orleans days before a Black man was set to take office. “It’s a sad thing to see the state government repeating what happened to Black public officials during Reconstruction,” said Calvin Duncan, who was set to take office Monday.

Seeing The New Day leave #WWE isn't as shocking as I thought it would be. And, it's yet another reason why I'm at peace no longer watching that company.

New Day rocks.

Wow. Really says something.

My Threads feed is full of Black folks absolutely gutted and despairing over today’s Voting Rights Act ruling. I love Bluesky for so much, but today is one of those historical moments where it is stark that we really live in two different Americas.

So are we going to see the No Kings marchers rapid response organize against the VRA act ruling this weekend or….?

And it's EXCEPTIONALLY hard not to be pissed at the other minorities who sided with and voted for these bigots thinking they'd only hurt Black people and being foolish enough to think they are safe from the backlash to come.

It's really hard to not be pissed at white people playing in our faces as the civil rights some of our parents and grandparents fought for are being ripped away every damn day.

I know BlackSky exists and *had* to be created because Bluesky remains overwhelmingly white, with seemingly no concrete plans to diversify. Yes, non-Black Bluesky users are despairing over VRA. My point was that Black people do not have the numbers here like they do on other platforms.

All the LIV golfers should have to sit out PGA events for two years.

Gambling will eventually kill US sports.

Nine Sols is a game I discovered cause of BS too and even though it’s hard as fuck, I love it.

There are a LOT of great smaller titles on this list. Several that we're looking forward to. Especially Alabaster Dawn: www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vFf... #Gaming #VideoGames #IndieGames

The young man was just peacefully protesting at the DC Hilton Saturday night. Just like that group of patriots on Jan 6th. I'm not sure what the fuss is all about. 🥱

Pearl Abyss awarding its staff bonuses that equate to a $2.5 million payout is a big deal and should be lauded from the heavens. Especially in today’s gaming climate. #CrimsonDesert #VideoGames #Gaming

Barret at @kindafunnyvids.bsky.social Dropped an interesting video that you wouldn't expect to see from games industry media today. Another reason why that outlet is among the best going right now: www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jfl... #Gaming #VideoGames #Politics #Culture

People of Note is a fun title from Annapurna Interactive that is packed with interesting gameplay elements and musical puns: invertedcontrol.substack.com/p/people-of-... #VideoGames #PeopleOfNote #AnnapurnaInteractive #VideoGameReviews #Gaming

Mouse PI for Hire (80) and Replaced (79) have some strong reviews. Love to see new games and IPs getting positive attention. #VideoGames #Gaming #Replaced #MousePIforHire

Dead as Disco looks like a mix of Hi-Fi Rush, Sifu, and Furi. It looks amazing. Can't wait for this to drop.

Space Racer rides in BLASTING and Thrall doesn't FLINCH #Invincible

This version of Tech Jacket and Allen should have their own spin off series lol. #Invincible

#Invincible has been a great watch this season. Interesting changes from the comic. Enough to make we want to go back and re-read the entire thing.

Sade, Luther Vandross, and WuTang getting into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!? Today is a good day to blast some music!

Artificial Intelligence is one of the biggest topics in gaming. While some want it to go away, Capitalism demands its presence and it is not leaving anytime soon: invertedcontrol.substack.com/p/artificial... #VideoGames #AI #Gaming

I don’t understand how anyone can look at their gaming library & say there’s nothing good to play. I’m at a point in my life where there’s absolutely never ending choices for old & new games alike & I absolutely adore the fuck out of it here. I have so many new games to play.
