we need to start a religious crusade against the idea of balancing single player games

TUNNEL HEIST THIS IS (NOT) A DRILL

Edgeworth, come on. Be serious here.

two new phone backgrounds. the gold and purple is meant to be inspired by Carcosa #pixelart

cannot help but read this in the voice of brennan lee mulligan

NFT are dead because none of you actually bought or tried to use them. LEARN FROM THAT.

if u study history and sociology or by God, you look at twitter, you can kinda start to see the entire population of America as a 300 year old neural network that’s simulating a dumb guy looking down the barrel of his gun while he cleans it.

This could go straight onto one of my reading lists on the politics of memory and the misremembering of British history in the two decades after the Great War.

It's one thing to know intellectually that the experience of the rise of authoritarianism is living your normal life until one day it's your door being kicked down it's another to see the president ask for more prison camps and see everyone doing the same discourses Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Politics hasn't been this simple in a long time: do you think it's good for one man to exercise unchecked, arbitrary power or not. Those are the two available ideologies right now

lol at Matt Yglesias forgetting to switch to his sock puppet account

Some designs from "The Ghost In The Shell" anime series by Science Saru (2026).

Nick Frost is officially playing the new Hagrid In other news, Nick Frost is officially dead to me

If America were still a normal place, this would be the endpoint of his presidency. Instead, everyone will have moved on by Wednesday.

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind. An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one." The other said, "Take him anyway." So they did.

i support any action that leads to the people in this video being put in front of an international criminal tribunal

the republican party must be outlawed from existing in the united states. we cannot live in a civil society with people as inhumanly evil as this

That monster's name? Bandai

Socrates solved this problem centuries ago. Instead of debunking or debating, ask increasingly more in-depth questions "Oh? Where did you read that? What vaccines do this? Why? Do they all do this? Since when? What else modifies DNA like this? Can I make a vaccine that turns me into Captain America?

i mean it's one five-minute task, michael. how long could it take to get started on it, ten days?

when will she be back from the war

We watched people standing in line for 8-10 hours to vote in Georgia, so they made it illegal to give them water. They called in bomb threats to majority Black polling places. They did everything they could to suppress the vote. And then folks are out here like, "well Georgia voted for this lol"

More in No, Other People: New poll: “America would be better off if more people worked in manufacturing.” • 80% of Americans agree • 20% disagree “I would be better off if I worked in a factory.” • 25% of Americans agree • 73% disagree • 2% currently work in a factory

Kinda hard to see a free and fair 2028 election where she doesn’t win by a lot.

The bipartisan belief that America would be a better place if *other people* worked in a factory. www.ft.com/content/8459...

happy ten year anniversary to this post

What if there was an opposition party that just said "If you give us a majority in congress we'll remove these freaks and criminals from power"

Assassin design for J.E.Lynn

A funny thing about Matty spending so much tima hanging out with the "anti-cancel culture" crowd is that he has a very Lenninist approach to politics: There should be a party line, people should follow it, and you shouldn't pursue politically incorrect lines of research, even if they're true.

every time you watch a video about egypt the talk about how the nile floods brought water and fertile silt to the valley, and that is true, but the Aswan High Dam stopped the floods and turned the silt machine off

Imagine interviewing a guy about some shitty unbuilt dam in Colorado and he just eloquently lays out the whole of US history in this snappy little quote. King shit.

One of the sources of rot running through our political, intellectual, and media institutions is the total triumph of the idea that democracy means outsourcing your morality and point of view to a fuzzily incoherent view of what's popular. Total rejection of the idea of morality as personal virtue.

BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year. Americans are pissed — and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.

I always knew conceptually how my family was sent to their death in the Holocaust by friends and countrymen capitulating. But watching it happen in real time so quickly, so easily, with twisted justification and hand waving is putting a whole new spin on understanding the horror they must have felt.

Every time someone asks why Gen X is so Trumpy, I remember our formative years, which were Reagan and “greed is good” and people claiming that AIDS was sent by God to kill gay people. Truly a curse.
