Yglesias gets this entirely backwards. Trump is still winning on immigration precisely because the Democrats and media allow him to frame the debate, agree with his basic points, and do nothing to communicate the terrible crimes being committed. If they push back, the numbers will change.

I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article

my favorite time of yeeeeearrr is heeeere if anyone needs a personal guide through tribulation mode, my services are available

“Trump is illegally disappearing people. He is proposing abducting Americans. He must be removed from power. He no longer has authority.” And honestly that’s the weak version of what Democrats should be saying.

Exclusive: Days before masked ICE agents detained Tufts University student Rumeysa Ozturk to deport her, the State Department determined that the Trump administration had not produced any evidence showing that she engaged in antisemitic activities.

people being in the streets means something. never let your cynicism convince you otherwise.

If you're scooping up students off the street for writing op-eds, you're secret police, and should be treated accordingly.

everything about this administration is exhausting, but i'm particularly tired of the gaslighting. sending war plans on a group chat (that includes a journalist!!!) via a third party app is BAD. it's WRONG. it's IDIOTIC. it's not any deeper than that. please fucking stop.

Just in case this isn’t abundantly clear: this is what the right has always done. They create punishing, highly underfunded systems so that they can argue that government is inherently inefficient.

Mahmoud Khalil should be at home with his pregnant wife. Instead, he's been illegally abducted & had his constitutional right to free speech & due process stripped. We're demanding his immediate release and we cannot allow this abuse of power to go unchecked. #FreeMahmoudKhalil

Musk and Trump could not possibly be sending a clearer signal that the Tesla protests are working than this pathetic stunt today.

you’re fired. wait you’re rehired. email us a list of things you’ve done today wait forget it you’re fired again. come back your job was important. you’re fired. or hired. come in to the office. wait the office has no computers go home. we are the department of government efficiency.

Monster Hunter Wilds' combat is the best it's ever been, but it's hard to see what the point of the "Wilds" part was when the only way you interact with the environment is by playing an on-rails herb shooter from the back of your free Uber ride to the monster

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

The attack on DEI shows why liberals should stop arguing about "strategic" use of language forever. DEI stands for three uncontroversial virtues that most every American accepts, and the right still turned it into a vile slur. It doesn't matter what you say - they will poison it because YOU said it.

All this bullshit immediately crumbles when it's presented to anyone who's not a sympathetic cohost on your podcast

okay but every fucking company that dropped anything remotely "DEI" so fast without any actual impetus to do so, preemptively for laws that were never going to be upheld because they weren't constitutional, needs to be fucking dragged into the street and stomped on forever

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million. How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65 Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?

i just think at this point it you don't see the direct path from gamergate to trumpism then you're purposely ignoring it

Found myself accidentally scrolling the linkedin feed for a minute and it felt exactly like this

About goddamn time, Ubisoft! Take a stand. Have some guts. Like to see it, finally. These bigots are not arguing in good faith and should not be given any consideration whatsoever. www.pcgamer.com/games/assass...

fantasy books used to have cool titles and now they're all called like "A Knife of Silver Knives" or "The Most Secret London" or "The Bonedaughter's Nemesis"

if I don't come back from my vacation, this is what happened

thrilled to finally dive into Caves of Qud with the 1.0 release! devastated to learn that it's pronounced like the thing a cow chews and not like the sound a dove makes. I've been saying it wrong for so long.....

disclaimer: you will unfortunately have to work with me as well

A friend told me he liked to see what he was buying from menus, so I added a little preview in the form of a tamagotchi-like! and Yes - there will be unlockable skins #gamedev #indiedev #solodev #indiegame

Very excited to finally be able to reveal this stuff. We're cooking, y'all 🏡

my partner this morning: "don't spiral while I'm at work" me: "I won't" also me:

finally a believable villain

I'm really enjoying FFVII Rebirth, but there's one thing I can't get over: All the minor NPCs look like extremely normal people and it makes the main cast look like they're cosplayers in their own video game

Heartbreaking: Your Favorite Character to Play in the Anime Action RPG is the Little Girl who is Actually a 400 Year Old Alchemist

I've decided that 2024 is the year of the Slime. I'm really into slimes now, as creatures. Starting up a new slime fandom. Anyway inaugural slime goes to this poring from Ragnarok Online. Excellent slime.

I never finish games but I just finished Darkest Dungeon 2 and it might be my dark-horse game of the year. Everything about it feels like it was made for me specifically. Gonna be hard to go back to other turn-based RPG combat systems after this for sure

if I were a sleeper agent, this would be my trigger phrase

okay Darkest Dungeon 2 is officially really good

I want Matthew Macfadyen to do Pride & Prejudice again but with his Tom Wambsgans voice. No other changes

Really vibing with Bioshock Bloodborne starring Pinocchéeo Chalamet
