I love it when Steam unceremoniously bans a game you’ve been working on and gives you no explanation as to why or any recourse. It’s just super awesome :^)

The tasteless, classless, orange clown is destroying our capital.

Oops All Positionals

Even as a critic who has tried to write about MJ’s legacy with nuance and grace, I appreciate the clarity the director of Leaving Neverland brings to the table

aaaaaaaa its so cute

HEY Do you want to save PORN from being kicked off this platform?? Go tell them your grievances then! Bluesky is built off the backs of queers, furries, POC, and sex workers alike WE were the first to join the site back when it was invite only, and WE should have a say in whether we belong!

See you all at the Correspondents’ Dinner!

NEW from me: the FTC appears to be gearing up to focus on penalizing gender-affirming care for minors—and those who speak in favor of it. @wired.com www.wired.com/story/the-fe...

Togo Mito finally fully announced his new game! x.com/MadaLabo/sta... ci-en.dlsite.com/creator/8637...

this headline is such a great example of “racecraft.” musk isn’t passively posting about “race,” he is actively writing psychotically racist agitprop www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

its incredible how like every idea I've seen people have for FFXIV sounds like the worst thing ever that would almost instantly kill the game

This is a real thing a real person said. Astonishing how much contempt people hold in their hearts. Soul-poisoning.

Personally, I think the new postal trucks look cute, which imo is a more relevant aesthetic goal for this particular vehicle than looking ~cool~ (read: masculine and violent)

the new postal truck is an extreme example, but the fundamental tradeoff between car exterior aesthetics and outward visibility is a very direct one... the black pill here is that a nonzero (though hard to calculate/estimate) number of Americans have literally died in the name of cars looking cool

I like how the actual fromsoft fans are complaining about Marika wearing shoes in the set leaks while the tourist chuds are trying to start shit about black extras

Alex Jones yesterday, April 22nd of 2026, is once again saying the Sandy Hook massacre was a false flag done by "professional shooters." It is imperative we take over that studio as soon as possible.

I’m so tired of people who pretend to care about combating misinformation, harassment of creators, and protecting freedom of expression particularly in the context of BL getting all high and mighty about boycotting the Nakamura-kun anime over censorship.

The Ribbon Hero might be the wake up call that gets people to notice the emerging talent at OUTLINE, like Takopi did for Enishiya. Exciting team (Yuki Igarashi leading! Mochizuki Kei + Yonema designs! Issei Arakaki adapting them! Cedric Herole concept artist!) with a fresh reimagination of Tezuka

The current season of THE BOYS is hitting way too close to home for me

This man, and this whole streamer/influencer industry, are a malignancy on our entire society.

Nothing he can say to them will be as degrading and disgraceful as their own decision to be there in the first place.

Zhang Shan won the gold medal for the mixed skeet shooting event in the 1992 Olympics. The International Shooting Union *immediately* banned women from competing against men.

Reporter: What do you make of Republicans saying that Virginia— AOC: Wah wah wah. We have asked Republicans for 10 years to ban partisan gerrymandering. And for 10 years, Republicans have said no. What they’re just mad at is that they have been accustomed to a Democratic Party that rolls over.

Somehow a daily experience

🚨 BREAKING: Governor Ron DeSantis has signed one of the most extreme and dangerously vague anti-diversity laws in the country (HB1001 / SB1134)—a direct attack on local communities that celebrate and support LGBTQ people and other diverse groups.

News! Christopher Franke has just released a ton of Babylon 5 soundtracks on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, Amazon Music, Pandora and others: six large volumes and smaller, six episodic soundtracks. Available yea unto this very moment.

Man, every song they pick for the Nakamura-kun EDs has been great

Scott was running for reelection

But it's true that you can't look at OP/ED and expect a similar vibe to the series they're attached to, because most time it'll be by someone else with interests of their own. And given where we're at, those interests are sometimes not artistic but "how do we capture eyeballs attached to a wallet"

Don't think you should demonize this approach either, it has led to very memorable sequences in recent times after all. I especially like how, in an era of narrowing the creative width of anime, these special sequences help sneak in more idiosyncratic indie artists - as long as they're flashy enough

I'm not saying this based on vibes. Exceptions always existed, but it was assumed that the series director or another core member of the team would be in charge of the opening and ending. They'd be fancier, sure, but inherently representative. The shift over the last 20 years alone is nuts

Funny that it's dancing in anime OP/ED that is causing big arguments about cynically aiming for online virality. For one, because people are bringing up Akanebanashi where it genuinely belongs to the story, but also because the deliberate bait is actually unrelated, high-profile outsider artists

Hate it here!!!!!!! x.com/i/status/204...

Support for impeaching Trump is at 55%, according to a new Strength In Numbers/ @Verasight.io poll, with 37% of adults opposed. Crucially 1 in 5 of Trump’s own voters support impeachment. Read and share: www.gelliottmorris.com/p/2026-04-22...

If we could get this version of Hakeem Jeffries 50% of the time, we'd be in good shape. He’s a solid caucus manager, but he spends most of his time filibustering subpar zingers, besides his occasional gestures toward legal sedevacantism. Coin flip ratio would be much better. Sweep the leg, Jeffries

The Tifa rumors for Street Fighter 6 are killing me because I remember Tifa was rumored for Tekken 8 for months and then a big breasted dark haired Final Fantasy character was finally announced and it was Clive

I would submit that a gerrymander by politicians saying fuck the voters and one by voters saying fuck the politicians are two wholly different animals

I dreamt I was a poor jester:

Breaking News: President Trump is said to be in talks to send Afghans who helped the U.S. war effort to the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Yet again I remind everyone (as Elizabeth does in her very next tweet) that "foreigners are corrupting our pure blood with weakness & disease" is Fascism 101. Not some variant, not some metaphorically similar thing, not some echo -- the thing itself.

Stolen from some dude on Threads... Alan Dershowitz: I didn’t leave the Democratic Party. The Democratic Party turned 18

Democrats should get louder in championing clean energy’s affordability and resilience from global shocks, according to some of the party’s leading voices on the climate. From our friends at @theguardian.com:

My hot take about the Pragmata girl is that she has unsettling medieval painting of a baby vibes
