One day in 1996, this poor guy suddenly got an upset stomach at work and needed to run to the bathroom, came back to his desk to find a knife in it, and then got sent off to Alaska. 29 years later, you’re damn right he gets a character poster now that he’s finally back!

How can this Clair Obscura: Expedition 33 game be a GOTY contender when I see Blue Prince puzzle shit every time I close my eyes

The reason why older generations burnt the shit out of their meat and boiled the shit out of their vegetables, was your kid died if you didn't. Medium rare steaks and roasted Brussels sprouts are a side effect of an intact food safety infrastructure

reporting on this has really got to get better about communicating the magnitude of the breach here. if you read the nyt article with minimal context, you would have no sense that this was watergate-level impeachable misconduct

See this flick properly on a big screen

I cannot believe the incredible run Game Pass is on right now. Indy, Citizen Sleeper 2, Avowed, South of Midnight, Blue Prince, and now Clair Obscura? There aren’t enough hours in the day.

What hell yeah what

Wait I thought tariffs were supposed to revitalize the American manufacturing industry, not break its legs

Jan Schakowsky, the incumbent in my race, will reportedly not seek re-election. So it seems like a good time to reintroduce myself — I’m Kat Abughazaleh and I’m running for Congress.

What strikes me as the strange idea is the notion that all fights for justice are preemptively responsible for any backlash they may engender, and should (naturally) pre-surrender. History would look very different under this view. Choose justice. The only way out is through. We fight on.

This is the same as the death penalty argument. Even if you think this is a just punishment when the government gets it right, all they have to do is get it wrong ONCE and each of us is complicit in disappearing people

To put a finer point on it. Trump’s contention isn’t just that he can deport people without them appearing before a judge, but that he can render them into a life sentence in a foreign dungeon with no process whatsoever.

Best moment in the film, give James Hong all the awards

And Jesus said “Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of Mine, you did for Me, but try to find a better ‘least of these brothers,’ the current least is a pretty bad poster child.”

Are these people stupid or purposefully obfuscating

fuck ice, man; brownshirt shit, disband that shit, we don't need it it does nothing but trample constitutional liberties

A very funny thing about my dad (who spent most of his life in sales with companies that made bedding material) is he hates this guy for pillow reasons. He has a rant about how bullshit these pillows are, says it's just floor scraps from leftover material, the shitty hot dog of pillows

Finding out the truth is, in fact, the very reason for providing people with due process.

"say what you like about her, but the Harry Potter books were a big part of my childhood" who gives a shit you're grown now

When Clive Barker was working on the MUMMY remake for Universal in the early '90s, he had a trans character in the script, and when the studio vetoed it, he basically said "I really can't stress how much I don't need to fucking make THE MUMMY" and left.

Clive Barker gets it. faroutmagazine.co.uk/hellraiser-c...

I’m going to pull my teeth out if the left tears itself apart over whether Pete or AOC would be a better candidate while Trump dismantles every single check on his power. Let’s have the debate while deep down adoring both of them as insanely smart, principled politicians that we are lucky to have.

MAGA doesn’t care about antisemitism. Pretending to care about it is just blaming Jews for MAGA’s own abuse of power.

Trump, convicted on multiple felonies, pardoned domestic terrorists and white nationalist gang members involved in Jan 6th. Republicans want immigrants with no criminal records locked up while their violent criminals walk free. That’s white supremacy, not public safety.

Hi, I’m autistic and I’m the mayor of my city.

Maybe I’m nuts but I also think terrorists should receive due process

If they had any evidence of either, they would not have needed to kidnap him, traffic him to a foreign prison, and do everything possible to deny him due process. There's no evidence he has committed any crime or has any affiliation with any gang. Literally none. Hence their actions.

Is Kilmar Abrego Garcia alive? Because the amount of resistance to addressing his being trafficked gives the distinct impression that either he is dead or what they have done to him is so unspeakable that they cannot afford for him to be freed, seen, or spoken with.

remember, stranger danger as a concept was introduced shortly after some 70s studies came out and determined nearly all child abuse was from adults close to the family. it was literally a nationwide "fuck no that can't be right"

there is this constant lurid fantasy that cis men will pretend to be trans women to gain covert access to girls and women because in this scenario we're imagining predators are not the fathers or grandfathers or teachers or priests or cops who are already granted that access. come the fuck on.

Deepest apologies that the world is horrid. In fun news, we released a new Movies with Mikey on YT! Watch me revisit one of my favorite films after 10 years www.youtube.com/watch?v=jA0A...

Psycho creep stuff. Would love for him to leave for Mars

Pretty much everything this guy does that isn’t currently a crime needs to become a crime

one of the most important moments in television

They're not fascists, they just think we're in a state of exception due to the pollution of the polity and citizen body by undesirable racial elements whose removal is of such paramount importance that it transcends the dictates of the law, justified by their embodiment of the Will of the People.

The US government full-on disappeared a man with the aid of a foreign power.

The Supreme Court ruled that the Trump admin must facilitate the return of SMART Union Local 100 apprentice Kilmar Abrego Garcia. They need to quit wasting time and bring our union brother home NOW!

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you. The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

All of these men are being illegally detained in a foreign gulag. They weren't deported. They were illegally imprisoned. This is the face of fascism. Look at it.

This is what it looks like to support real fucking science, as opposed to supporting wealth and the people who hold it. Thank you Seth Rogan.

Wait, actual factual action? Actual opposition from an opposition party?

You shouldn’t have to be a great dad or even a good one to avoid being black-bagged by the US government and sent to a gulag in another country

Fuck Donald Trump in his fat fucking ass

There’s been a lot to be upset about in the last few months. But as an American, this truly disgusts me. The USA’s closest ally now is a guy who calls himself the “coolest dictator” — this Oval Office meeting is like a huge F.U. to the judicial branch and the Supreme Court’s 9-0 decision

Do you know the difference between “$2 trillion” and “$150 billion”? About $2 trillion.
