(You should never refer to the clients as targets; you don’t want to get confused at the wrong moment.) (That’s a joke.)

As someone who learned to make video games by modding Fallout 4: this is downright tragic. If Nexus goes down, it’ll be a huge blow to one of the last few free avenues of learning to make and publish game stuff with open-source tools. Web3 my behated. My enemy.

Walking past the Aladdin Theater in SE Portland. Off night; no concert. Instead, there’s a man sitting in a camp chair, with a huge touchscreen monitor plugged into an outlet on the side of the building. The pair of breasts on the screen are HUGE and blurred as he enters a password to continue.

OMG I was logged out of Bluesky and didn't realize it and I was in Discover and look I have a lot to process right now you guys

Vehicular attack on protesters

Portland comics fans: Spotted near the Aladdin Theater.

This is well stated. Mike Lee will forever be associated in my mind with his unbelievably cruel and stupid tweets about the Hortman assassination. He is a disgrace to the Senate and Utah.

An Afghan man who worked as a translator for the U.S. military during the war was detained by ICE after showing up for a hearing inside of a federal courthouse in San Diego, his attorney says. He fears that if he returns to Afghanistan, he would be tortured or even killed, @nbcsandiego.com reports.

Imagine 5 million people leaving their homes just to let you know that you’re a despicable asshole

A hat for me

This was interesting! Basically, there's a 300 year period where the Federation/Starfleet has increasing evidence of the Borg and suspects something's out there in the Delta Quadrant, but don't have conclusive proof. 1/2

So here’s a thing I do: I know that I am fighting a losing battle, but I regularly pay good money to get my name scraped from data brokers. I use a variety of services. I hate that people can find addresses so easily. Public officials. Regular citizens. Me. It’s awful. It’s dangerous. It’s scary.

Sure would be cool if the Pentagon was run by somebody who isn’t a constantly lying piece of shit.

I think “prosecute every ICE employee” is the best deal those Nazi fucks should expect to get.

WE HAVE QUESTIONS… This is a kidnapping. No uniform, no badge, civilian car. Who are they? ICE? Sanctioned bounty hunters? Either way, they’re grabbing people without warrants. How often is this happening, and why aren’t more people talking about it? Congress?

this is a fantastic ruling but it's deeply depressing that the clearest-eyed condemnation of this administration's actions has come from the judges tasked with ruling on their legality and not the press ostensibly tasked with speaking truth to power

Happy 90th anniversary to the most iconic spread in Flash Gordon history. This takes place during the original Kira arc, brainwashed Heel Flash and all, a potent example of why this comic more or less kicked off the entire superhero genre

Heyyy remember when you could go a whole week without worrying what the president was gonna do next Good times

Do not buy books from Dark Owl Publishing! The owner and operator is Andrea Dawn, a known white supremacist, who is currently on threads talking about plowing cars into protesters.

good news: i’ve officially Made It! i’m a Real Professional Artist now! bad news: by that i mean i think i’ve been blatantly ripped off by a big company lmao. it’s not the SAME image but it’s uhhhh…. pretty fuckin similar. looking for someone with first-hand experience/advice!

This is one of the most irresponsible things a president has ever said.

i need to immediately raise about $600 to prevent a utility from being shut off. venmo magdalene-visaggio

My whole life, Republicans have thrown fits about everything Democrats do plus make up stuff Dems didn't actually do. And now they run everything. Perhaps one day Democrats will learn "constantly criticize your opponent" is a better strategy than "minimize, justify, and normalize their misdeeds."

i know a lot else is going on, but US folks PLEASE call your senators - they are actively set on trying to ban trans healthcare on Medicaid entirely which trans people like me who are on Medicaid actively depend on for life-saving healthcare

GET SALTMARSHED IDIOT 🧂

Total meltdown of the much-loathed, bankrupt Diamond Distributors. They've stopped paying publishers, and now are apparently holding hostage their books in the Diamond warehouse! "We all thought this was going to be a mess, but the size and scope of the mess has surpassed our wildest expectations."

Mike Lee is the way he is because there are zero consequences for being a lying sack of shit

He said it. Yes.

#PORTLAND: Friday June 28th go visit Rose City Comics @rosecitycomics.bsky.social for their #Pride2025 QUEER BOOK FAIR. Special guests: Anne Bean from Emerald Comics Distro and Ren Strapp @renstrapp.com Roe City Comics is at 3725 N. Mississippi Ave.

Snail for ren faire

Essential point in this exchange with @willsommer.bsky.social: Trump-Miller have to target noncriminals for deportation because it's the only way to get the numbers they need to try for "full-scale ethnic change." Terror is central to this. Will is very good here: newrepublic.com/article/1968...

if anything, geese deserve MORE teeth

Mamdani has one of the strongest pro-trans youth politicies I've seen from any politician this year. There are many reasons why NYT opposes Mamdani in favor of a credibly accused sexual harasser, but I have no doubt this is among them.

To overthrow tyranny we cannot only say what we don’t want. We have to scream for what we DO want. Whatever world you want to see, whatever goodness you believe in, let the world know. Don’t only say you hate ICE. Say that you love immigrants. Don’t only degrade MAGA. Uplift Trans people.. LOUDLY.

Posting this again because I’d like to encourage creators to please, PLEASE take control of your own destinies. karlkerschl.com/how-i-built-...

It has been four days since Kristi Noem, the head of the department of homeland security, said this in public. If meant literally, it describes the end of democracy in California. If not meant literally, would be nice for that to be clarified and for the troops to leave. bsky.app/profile/just...
