Yo guys. I know how the Jews could have stopped Hitler. Just - don't resist. If everyone had just done what the SS told them to do, they'd never have gotten their way! Problem solved! I'm really smart!

I'm sorry, this game's a gold mine.

Americans abroad

"Months of the Long Knives" These clowns can't even get the inner rivals purge right. You're supposed to set this up ahead of time, folks. Ever watched Star Wars?

Did Trump just congratulate Merz on his amazing election results? That's gotta be a prank, I'm sure.

#ThiefVR

We're lost.

Looks like Germany has reactionary facebook brainrot for minister of culture now. This is actually painful to read.

Okay, my bet for the Merz Oval Office Ambush: - "Germany doesn't contribute enough GDP to its military!" - "You're weak for bowing to the courts that shot down your border plan!" - Something about the AfD being shut out of committees Let's go!

Today on Caesar Flickerman: District 13 - did they deserve it?

savewot.com Not that I put much hope into petitions, least of all petitions appealing to corporations, but if anything, I just want to say how much I loved #wheeloftime and hate to see it canceled. It has writing and cinematography Rings of Power can only dream of. And the costumes!

I'm telling you, they create these Palantir guys in the punchable-face lab.

labour will never win over reform voters by being more racist while they're in power, the whole idea is to tell the lie "there are problems in society because the government isn't being racist enough" and that doesn't work when you are the government

Looks like Bluesky's on the right path, comrades.

First time playing Ace Attorney, and I gotta say, Bellboy is Life. But also, in the AA world, it seems like "Guilty until proven innocent" permeates every single trial. Adds to the drama, but also make me tear my hair out. Okay, Edgeworth, and there's no concrete proof I'm guilty, so what now?

Ich sprach neulich auf dem University Future Festival in Braunschweig über KI und Hypes. Hier ist die Aufzeichnung:

adding a teeny bit of subtle male choir "I'm working hard on the track I swear!" a minute later:

So have we just accepted that any statesperson entering the oval office might be subject to a spontaneous debate about right-wing lies, and instead of dwelling on that, we move on to rating who won that "debate"? There's too many "How did Ramaphosa do?" headlines.

Putting aside the plagiarism and awfully uninventive mechanics, what I'm most confused about with #Marathon is its artstyle. Like, I can see that it has one, but what exactly is it? "Placeholder Renderite"? Doesn't that genre live off cosmetics? What do those look like if that's the art pitch?

I don't know what's more fascinating: The irony that J. Hall's work has been warning of Putin's propaganda while swallowing it hook line and sinker, or the sheer spectacle of conservatives organically rediscovering concepts of "Jewish science" and "Cultural Bolshevism".

Thank you, Austria and JJ, for preventing the ultimate ethical disaster. I know it's not the artist's fault (haven't looked into her), but it's an utter shame for #ESC to ban rainbow flags and celebrate genocide, all under the banner of "United by Music". Also, the sauna song is kind of a banger.

#Eurovision is tonight, and here's a hilarious fun fact about it: Israel has started a massive offensive against civilian populations in Gaza with the explicit aim of conquering the entire territory and ethnically cleansing its population, and Eurovision has aggressively refused to give a shit.

Chancellor Merz calls the AfD a "political opponent", that he does not want to ban from elections. Opponents, however, act on equal terms. The AfD aims to uproot democracy itself and persecute political rivals. So all this tells me is that Merz agrees to those terms.
