so let me get this straight porn is too unsafe to accept because it causes too many credit card disputes but we will hand credit card disputes over to an unaccountable magic box and charge you 30% for the privilege

hey guys isn't it weird how they're all saying this at the same time? ignore the fact that this is now happening with Tyler Cowen, an economist who sits at the center of a sprawling system of think tanks and policy "influencers" who have been laundered into DC with both Koch and SV VC money

"Forcing your ideology" is *definitely* not one of those red flag phrases, nope; we totally haven't seen this before from primarily right-wing run projects... Just more to be aware of from KPXC.

There's a round of GOTY discussion going around, and I realized that a lot of my favourite games this year have been absolute Sicko Picks. So here's a few games I've loved so far in 2025, starting with a mild one: Babushka's Glitch Dungeon. A scrunkly lil' puzzle-metroidvania with so many fun verbs

The most basic argument I can give you for ditching Spotify for *anything* is Spotify, uniquely, pays *nothing* for much of the music on the platform. Is there *any* improvement in paying for Spotify over pirating? You're a paper-thin moral slice away from buying music from a bootlegger. Why do it?

if you are the public defense investigator who just subpoenaed Sam Altman on stage know that i love you and think you are a wonder upon this earth.

"An advanced all-in-one type with excellent features." I absolutely love the compact design of this OASYS Word Processor from 1986, and can't but wonder if it has any capability to play games at all with liquid crystal display and whatever processing grunt power it has.

I'm in @thenation.com this morning on the repeated failure of transphobia as political strategy, efforts to scapegoat trans people for Democrats' own failures, and Zohran Mamdani's model of solidarity

The AP tracked down details of some of the people killed in President Trump's military strikes on drug smugglers he describes as narco-terrorists. They were, with one exception, not high-level criminals. One was a fisherman. One was a bus driver; another a taxi driver. apnews.com/article/trum...

my mental health improved dramatically when i realized how much queer discourse on social media was actually just panicked 15 year olds who just discovered they wanna kiss the wrong kid in class you wouldn't waste your life arguing with that kid in real space, so why would you do it on the internet

90% of the worst queer discourse is driven by people either in the closet or otherwise terrified about what committing to their authentic selves means for their lives, and while we should be patient and loving to these folks we need to stop taking them seriously

Something worth noting: Rockstar is leaning HEAVILY on the excuse that the unionising employees were "leaking private company information" They want people to assume this means game info or assets. But I will bet you CASH MONEY this translates to: 'they were comparing salaries and work contracts"

"They want everyone to know these thugs they’ve deployed to terrorize cities are battle-hardened and impervious to pain. But in court, they're such delicate flowers that if they are, say, lightly grazed by a sandwich, they are entitled to justice because of the horrific assault they have suffered."

The Clinton camp has been trying to gaslight people for years that they never said "Obama wasn't born in the US", only that he was "not at his center fundamentally American" and that Clinton should emphasize in every speech that she *was* born in America. www.politico.com/story/2008/0...

greeted by absolutely ~charming~ (/s) news in my e-mail this morning. anyone else try to launch an NSFW project on Kickstarter recently? myth of consensual sex, ffs. (good news is, they approved the project, sigh.)

My favorite comment on the FT story

Snapped from Famitsu July 4th 1986's issue, which features as an amazingly stylized Mario on the cover.

📖 Bytes of Game Ads 📺 What a cool 3D-effect double page ad for ASCII's Cosmo Genesis (Star Voyager), a pretty nifty space shooter of the kind I'm fond of, where you hop around a grid similar to Star Master or Solaris.
