Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens. Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”

Everyone trying to work out why video games aren’t selling anymore — “Too many games? Prices are too low? Marketing is hard?” — when the answer this time around is actually simple: The world got fucked and no-one has any money People are struggling to pay bills and rent, let alone buy your game

I think that these house and Senate investigations should be public, with names redacted obviously. Why are they allowed to hide things?

I probably should’ve asked this sooner, but is the new president Donald Trump the same as the old one, or is he a different guy with the same name?
