"And remember this: the [Zionist] need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear."

USA falling into chaos, Iran joining the long list of nations attacked by the Zionist warmongering doctrine, Palestinians are still living through a genocide and European playing with their thumbs. Support to all fighting against colonial/authoritarian oppressors around the world & free Palestine ✊

At Amsterdam airport on a LA-bound flight, I got a random check as always. This time, as soon as security opened my backpack, I got hit by the strongest weed smell I'd ever smelled. I've never used any drugs. It wasn't mine. Nervous, I glanced at the person behind me, and Snoop Dogg nodded back.

Dear Western media, Israel's attack has put the Middle East "on the brink of war" the same way Hitler's blitzkrieg in Poland brought Europe "to the brink of war". Which is to say, Israel attacked Iran unprovoked, after Iran already showing restraint the last few times Israel did this.

APWOT is generally some of the best games-related publications you can get. Absolutely worth it, incredible writing and art, and after being the coffee table book for some time, they're so pretty that they retire to a place of honour in my book cabinet for future reference.

I think a lot of games jargon is incredibly bad but I have to give it to whoever coined the new term for Clair Obscur-specific subgenre of the French-infused JRPG, the j'RPG. Incredible work.

I think the most powerful indictment of LinkedIn I have is that my most popular LinkedIn post is a post making fun of LinkedIn. www.linkedin.com/posts/ramiis...

Earlier I quote-tweeted an article about how Israel's first confirmed kill in its unprovoked large-scale attack against Iran was a child. The video of that article contained footage of the body. I have a policy of not posting footage of dead children to your feed, and I apologize for missing that.

This is the end-game - nothing created for people anymore, all fed into a platform that adds no value. Artists won't make art, they'll be paid to make "AI data". Writers won't write, they'll be paid to make "AI data". Every job will feed the model, and the model will be a primary expense to exist.

🌲Ed Sheeran explains to Louis Theroux that he dislikes private jets and prefers trains because "I like the environment, I like trees." We know that this type of messaging from celebrities is hugely impactful. We need far more of this from more stars. As posted by @nowthisimpact.bsky.social

First, Israel cut Gaza’s last internet cable—blacking out 2.3 million people. Then it bombed Iran with no UN approval, no imminent threat. As eyes shift to Iran, Israel will escalate its ethnic cleansing in Gaza—and create more regional instability.

You'd think at some point Israel would run out of ways to become more evil but to strike a nation's nuclear facilities because you fear they could build nuclear weapons despite openly holding illegal nuclear weapons yourself? That was likely the end of the nuclear treaty globally, right there.

It's wild how if you take the arc of Andor as a series, the Empire acts consistently less evil, less oppressive, and less violent than real-life Israel does - yet the various groups of resistance and opposition absolutely feel justified in their many forms of fighting the Empire.

Awful to hear the news of Air India 171. Too many souls lost, and it looks from the video clip of the crash that crew and passengers must've been aware things were not going well.

There is a type of person who always expresses that the "middle part" of a story was boring and dragged on, but the beginning and end were great. To them, I say: I have some important news about the end of the story.

A few years ago i launched a "Game Jam from the future", with the goal of making a game from the year 2091. It got very few entries. I still like the idea, so I wonder, if I launched it today, would there be more people participating?

I feel like there generally shouldn't be reporting on 'successful indies' that doesn't also mention the massive swaths of indies who can't run 'successful' studios because no one will give you money if you're not already successful

As a reminder, Israel also armed Hamas. Israel doesn't care who has guns as long as they can use it to massacre countless Palestinians every few years.
