SCOOP: Schumer was more involved than reported with the attempted cave on the government shutdown. The Gang of 8 Senate Dems had his approval & he was getting daily updates. In Thursday's caucus meeting, the Gang claimed they had 10 votes to cave. The caucus went nuts, leading to the new proposal.

Iggy was an invaluable tester and contributed so much to the project. He was absolutely brilliant in the game and came up with so many original strategies we had never considered. Please help us spread the word and as we help find him a living kidney donor. 💙

the answer, for crossword heads, is “where’s the beef”

"Beneath its humdrum requests, every email said more or less the same thing: Can you explain how reading certain things can turn a person into a socialist—and, possibly, a terrorist-sympathizing antisemite?" lithub.com/maybe-dont-t...

I'm not the first person to notice this, but there are so many services that have been relatively stable for decades that are now having weird dumb problems and I'm certain it's because of CEOs trying to shoehorn in AI and it making stupid mistakes and breaking shit, and it sucks.

This makes me actively want to go to Target even less, both because this sounds like a dystopian nightmare for employees but also I hate being bothered at the store and turning every stocker and clerk into a Direct TV salesperson/brand representative eager to ask me how I'm doing sounds like hell

The most completely mundane replies being hid in my mentions without my consent or control is absolutely ridiculous and outrageous. @pfrazee.com y’all gotta give us back control of our own accounts this is out of hand. Literally hid a cat picture someone sent me.

Plaintiffs allege that lawyers still aren’t being given access to their clients inside the Broadview facility.

God. Here’s the status report Bovino filed in the Broadview ICE facility case. It’s worth reading. He’s like, “OK FINE we’re getting clocks and clean bedding, but we still don’t think everyone should be allowed a toothbrush.”

It does deeply tickle me that neoliberalism believes all of politics is keyfabe and you can't truly hold a conviction.

These people are monstrous. Everyone involved in this should be in jail.

Last year Future Class honorees spoke up about the program's purportedly poor support for the people it claimed to uplift. Encourage folks to go back and read their stories for more context on why The Game Awards' silence in 2025.

AI could end scarcity, end humanity - or boost trend growth by 0.2 percentage points

Read this thread. This is what @katmabu.bsky.social was protesting, and why she repeatedly says getting beaten up by ICE outside is nothing compared to the torture and crimes being committed inside Broadview. These thugs must be held to account.

Personally, I believe that institutions that purport to support or otherwise celebrate an industry have a responsibility to pursue material action that backs that support up. Here, we have an example of the most abject failure to uphold that responsibility, and it's frankly embarrassing. (1/5)

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk

Gobble Fantasy 2003 (Demo) (@dogsunderstand.bsky.social) "Gobble through a surreal maze-chase adventure packed with oddball characters and playful JRPG elements." Demo - Windows: warpdoor.com/2025/11/07/g...

Do we have a name for the mechanics pervasive to Risk of Rain/Megabonk/Vampire Survivors?

Can we stop pretending these awards aren't an embarrassing stain on the entire medium yet

It’s wild how optimistic Steve Bannon is about how Democrats will operate if they regain power

sorry guys i accidentally deleted the spreadsheet with the first drafts of homophobic potato chip brands and it turns out it was somehow load bearing to the entire driving system and the only guy who knows how to fix it got fired in the union busting so

I mean putting aside the fact that obviously no, they haven't, I'd question whether one even *can* meaningfully disconnect a nationalist ideology from bigotry. It's intellectually dishonest to suggest they aren't both extensions of the same philosophy and mindset, or that "America First" has no past

dropped it after they funded rogan and haven't regretted it since

[ROB ZOMBIE, ABOUT TO WRITE ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER MADE] you ever think about the car grandpa munster drives

Folks shouldn't skip on this one. It's an incredibly stylish 'light' 4X strategy game with a weird fantasy setting (no orcs or elves here), a Hitoshi Sakimoto soundtrack, and fast auto-battler style combat.

Here's a sneak peek at our new game: Fright Train! 🐶🚂 It's a TRAIN SURVIVAL HORROR game inspired by Resident Evil 4, set in Antarctica. WISHLIST down below! 👇 #survivalhorror | #indiegame

INCOMING CANON FIRE! A deep dive into the ABSOLUM, the latest from the Streets of Rage 4 team! I dig into how it evolves the arcade spirit of games like Capcom's Dungeons and Dragons beat-em-ups, its remix of fantasy tropes, and even its take on gender and identity. canonfire.net/post/7992333...

The fuckers got away with it. The company. The people who made the decisions. All of them. They got away with killing hundreds for the sake of a few cents per share of increased earnings. 🤬

NO PLAYERS ONLINE brings its mechanics to bear on mood with impressive seamlessness. Read @midfalutin.bsky.social's review.

The idea of resurrecting this franchise 30 years later is a shaky premise to begin with, but choosing to do so without Joe Dante's specific touch is a kiss of death.

No justice until there is a deluxe $40 Pee-Poo toy in the "for adult collectors" section at Target

Yume Nikki PS1. Demo out NOW! It contains two dream worlds to explore. You can run it on a real PlayStation 1. This is a fan game. I put a lot of love and care into it. I hope you enjoy it. #yumenikki #ps1 #psx #gamedev #homebrew

I played @enigmastud.io's TÖLT last night, and look: I acknowledge am extremely easy lay for Enigma's entire glitchy first person psychological horror metatextual style. But goddamn it it really is exactly my shit. Pump it into my veins. Cannot wait for the full game. enigma-studio.itch.io/tolt

Ozymandias calmly and indifferently explaining to Night Owl his entire years-long master plan instead of being in a control room pumping his fist and going “yes, fuck yes, we did it!” and obsessively watching the news to see if his strategy worked is the most unbelievable thing in Watchmen

Getting new details on this now: As the arrest unfolded, teachers pleaded with the agents telling them the teacher had a work permit. The agents went into multiple rooms looking for teachers while children were present. One teacher hid with a child in her care while the agents stormed the facility.

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

Good things are possible and we don’t have to settle.

You ever write a shitpost that involves an image that you're kind of on the fence about whether to bother with, then take the time to write out the entire alt text for the image, and by the time you're done you've completely cooled on an already lukewarm gag? Just me?

not an unreasonable interpretation a joker was in fact destroyed

been playing way too much Balatro lately because for half a second I thought the map was a torn up spectral card

The modern conservative movement is so spiteful and Nazi-adjacent that you could absolutely remove the New Yorker logo, replace it with "this is the future liberals want," and it would 100% read as effective unironic terrifying propaganda to them

I am full of schadenfreude at Cuomo et al eating shit tonight, but man, my social anxiety and rejection sensitive dysphoria is why I could never run for office Imagine standing in a room full of people there just for you and you have to get on stage and admit you're a huge loser I couldn't do it

Nothing says "Democrat" more than getting an entire evening full of examples showing people are rightly angry at the fascists and deciding that now is the time to fold and give them concessions

Was thinking about this when I realized COD is under BDS embargo, Fortnite is about to do a Harry Potter, and Battlefield's ownership is about to be fraught when EA sells Can't even enjoy as stupid brainrot number-go-up GAAS title without supporting some sort of atrocity these days.
