BREAKING: Mexican President Sheinbaum argues that if cartels are deemed terrorist orgs, then the suppliers of weapons—over 74% of which come FROM the U.S.—should ALSO face accountability for enabling terrorism. As a result, Mexico is expanding its lawsuit targeting U.S gun manufacturers. 🇲🇽

That should be the populist left line. People hate billionaires and railing against them is immensely popular.

He's right. Reminds me of a Gene Wolfe short story, "How the Whip Came Back," about a UN vote to restore slavery, and its links to forced prison labor and robotics. The robots are not human-like--not practical to build that way. But the twisted desire to control human-like beings does not go away.

I feel so sick. Enough with the lies, enough with the games. They know exactly what they're doing. This is a neo-Nazi movement. Proudly so. The only reason they've kept it coded up until now was to take advantage of those who didn't want to believe it. No more looking away. Face up to what it is.

If you told me "an extremely senile Trump was re elected after being convicted of a felony but the real president is Elon Musk, who's a Nazi now, and he's employing his drug dealer and nazi child pornographers to tear down the entire US government" in 2020 I'd have thought you were on crack

I’m not sure the world has seen a genuine supervillain until 2025. Of course there’ve been countless monsters: hitler, Stalin, pol pot. But a real life figure who fits the Gotham/Metropolis model. Plutocrat bigwig who is actually deeply evil & wants to run the world for cartoonishly stupid reasons.

"When reporters called this out, the DOGE team made a fascinating choice. Instead of fixing their error, they actually removed the correct document from their website and replaced it with the old, incorrect one. They are now deliberately posting false information to support the narrative."

The geniuses at the Democratic Party settling on “maybe we were too woke” rather than “a cabal of billionaire pedophile Nazis are stealing your money and taking a sledgehammer to your future” is astonishing. Just one of those things

The latest game I directed "Dreams of Another" is announced for PS5/PS VR2! I began creating the concept from scratch, with art and sound, and took on new challenge of crafting the entire story, weaving in my doubts and struggles into the dialogue for all characters and objects.

Our cultural rot is partially rooted in that critics cannot write about and champion what they find interesting primarily; they must keep up with a corporate mandated "zeitgeist". It's fine. Soon it'll be AI critics positively reviewing AI movies, and everyone will be happy, wallowing in slop.

You cannot determine whether you saved or cost money based solely on one side of the ledger. Example: I saved my household $2K by not paying the mortgage.

This piece by @quinnslobodian.com is the best analysis of DOGE out there. Quinn is spot on that what we are seeing with Trump/Musk/DOGE right now is "the convergence of three strains of politics that have never simultaneously been this proximate to power." www.nybooks.com/online/2025/...
