Just in case you don't understand how the Trump administration views the law, spray painting a Tesla is terrorism, but when a right-wing Nazi sympathizer at Florida State commits a mass shooting, that is not terrorism. Maybe Trump will invite this guy to Thanksgiving dinner or State of the Union.

Republicans who insist they "aren't Trumpers" could actually do something if they are so against this agenda, but most don't. They are going to distance themselves politically from tariffs, without actually doing anything to stop them, which they have the most power to do. Take power, avoid blame.

These tariffs will really stick it to countries like Zimbabwe and Mongolia that have been taking advantage of the US economy for years to become economic powerhouses. Maybe one day we will be as rich as them. They are rich, right?

As Cory Booker filibusters for 18 hours, some on the left just are looking for things to criticize him for because he's a lib. Maybe shut the fuck up and let the man cook. This is like if LeBron dunked from the free throw line and a fan was like "why weren't you as good the rest of the game?"

the constitution says you must be 35 to be eligible to serve as president. now, let’s say a presidential nominee was born on february 29, 1972, a leap year. and let’s say they were running in 2024. now, technically, they would only be 13. you could say they were ineligible. but that’s stupid! (1)

Recently I've wondered if Bezos will push back against Trump. When he interfered with WaPo, he talked about "free markets" being a value. Amazon relies on globalism and free trade. Tariffs seem to hurt them a lot, right? And if you are dodging taxes anyway, who cares about tax cuts?

In Yakuza: Like a Dragon, Ichiban Kasuga is a man that doesn't know his father and helps sex workers, homeless people and minorities against the will of a state that consider them sinners. In that sense, that makes it the best adaptation of the New Testament. In this essay I will

Rick Wilson nails it here:

(1/3) Thesis: Elon Musk is Dio Brando. In the beginning of JoJo, Dio shows up at the Joestar estate looking for a fight and to take everything over. He uses underhanded tactics and manipulation to try and turn everyone against Jonathan Joestar. He bullies Jonathan and assaults his girlfriend.

Things that happen in Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii that nobody questions. 1. A boy walking around in public with a baby tiger 2. That same boy being accompanied by a one-eyed Yakuza man who stabs people. 3. A stereotypical pirate ship just pulls up on shore in Honolulu and it's cool.

As I was reading about the consolidation of egg producers, and how production has only dropped 15% while prices have risen 255%, while at the same time one of the biggest producers had a 500% increase in income, I decided to make a meme.

You should get Virtua Fighter 5 REVO...it's $16! Believe it or not, Nintendo, companies can release improved version of old games that are actually improved and not charge $60 *cough* Donkey Kong Country Returns *cough*

Yo, I'm on this app now for reasons that are probably obvious. It's kinda depressing migrating to different platforms because of, you know, the rise of fascism and corporate oligarchy, but at least when I signed on here I got to see a post from Hideo Kojima being Hideo Kojima, so that was good.
