Brody King wearing an Abolish ICE shirt

There are no distractions. It's all bad. Systematically stripping trans people of their rights, guys in balaclavas shoving any brown person with a tattoo into a ummarked vans, ending healthcare for millions. It's all in service of fascism and technofeudalism. It's all one thing. That's the point.

transition care for trans people is life saving healthcare. the only regret with my transition is that i didn’t start when i was younger. fuck everyone who is cheering on the destruction legal trans healthcare, and fuck those indifferent to it

I have been waiting over a decade for siivagunner to be charted in video game journalism. I should have known it would have been Aftermath who finally did it. Phenomenal work from Chris here

no matter your politics it’s disrespectful to joke about someone’s health. don’t say kristi noem died from getting her ass stuck in a wooden barrel and floated off a waterfall and her head hit every tree branch on the way down and an eagle flew by and grabbed her hat. don’t say stuff like that

Brianna Wu on Why the Left Lost the Moon as a Tactical Battleground

cuomo is campaigning that he’s the only one seasoned enough and tough enough to stand up to trump and then when trump kidnaps the comptroller of the city he wants to lead, he can’t even be bothered to show up. don’t rank him.

disrespectful to those who have slipped on spaghetti IRL, like pinocchio valenti @bransonreese.bsky.social

Accidentally posting from my AltFDA account instead of my Unusual Whales account.

Today’s arrest of @bradlander.bsky.social is just one disturbing example of what ICE does every single day across the country. It’s not interested in law and order—this is about spreading fear. New York City will not stand for it.

kristi noem has the opportunity to do the funniest thing rn

"I'm happy to report I'm just fine. I lost a button. But I'm gonna sleep in my bed tonight, safe, with my family... At that elevator, I was separated from someone named Edgardo... Edgardo is in ICE detention and he's not going to sleep in his bed tonight."

And the person who turned up to support him with no notice is the Muslim dude who have cross endorsed each other and who the msm has been going into overtime to cast him as antisemitic

Is Cuomo going to show up or is it going to take him too long to get to Lower Manhattan from Westchester

they are cuffing members of the opposing party on a weekly basis now

I wish people would stop thinking being a game designer is some sort of binary where you are or aren't a game designer based on arbitrary facts and instead understood that game designer is a spectrum that start at making homebrew for your gaming group and ends with getting fired from a AAA studio

This is obviously ridiculous but it is kind of bleakly funny that this advice more or less has the same beats as advice about what to do if you encounter a bear in the woods, just in terms of the unknowability of the other party. "Make yourself appear larger and the cop will usually run away."

Cuomo’s car parked (illegally) outside union HQ. I asked a cop nearby if it was parked illegally. He said “yes.” Why? “Because it got two tickets already”

Now with more juice and more importantly in a doom metal themed game, music! Some of the animations sync up with the beat, and a lead guitar gets added dynamically when you’re doing well. #indiedev #godot #doommetal

i was still living in nyc when cynthia nixon primaried cuomo for governor and pundit class hissy fit over that seems downright quaint compared to the one they’re throwing over zohran’s mayoral bid now

but actually, fuck the new york times

It's pretty telling that the second part of the "Mamdani is a danger to Jewish new yorkers" pitch is always "so vote for sexual harasser shitbag Italian Catholic Andrew Cuomo" and not "so vote for Jewish Progressive Brad Lander"

Essay: WITHNAIL AND I - The Song Remains the Same Last night, I accidentally wrote a short essay about Richard E. Grant doing Hamlet in the rain, running out of road, my best friend Amy I lost after college, & Bruce Robinson's WITHNAIL AND I. I'd be honored if you gave it a read. bit.ly/4jNzKVy

You can pick at Mamdani's proposals because he has proposals; Cuomo is just like, I'm going to abolish the last 12 years

It’s so funny how every time one of these guys ruins their life doing violence for the fascist cause all their heroes are like “actually he’s a trans communist and a federal agent.”

the story today is of a profoundly low energy military parade being met with millions of americans in nationwide protests denouncing the dictatorial pretensions of the president

The assassination of members of the party who is not in power is the declaration of open season on the perceived electoral minority. It is fundamentally necessary to engage in all-out opposition party tactics. Things will not get better.

Just sold Robert F. Kennedy Jr. an ounce of the gamy-smelling green pellets I feed my turtle for $1200. "Can you throw in some of the juice?" he asked. It took me a minute to realize that he meant some of the water from the tank. I filled a shot glass with it and he tipped me $100 in cash.

DO I LOOK LIKE I KNOW WHAT A CHUG JUG IS?

We know what we have to do to save our city from Andrew Cuomo. We're cross endorsing 🤝 @bradlander.bsky.social
