Weather Report #6: New Fortress Energy Has More Problems, an Ominous Fishing Video Game, a Paranoid Political Thriller, and More heavyweather.media/weather-repo...

Big mad over on the other site because a mainstream news outlet is pushing my two week old scoop as new information

I don’t think most Americans realize how devastating Trump’s tariffs are on developing countries still trapped in paying of development debts (thanks to legacies of colonization). How this will impact the poorest of the world. F*ck you Trump et al. I hope you all rot in hell.

Yes there will be people who are not the exact type of lefty as you at a protest. a lot of it will be cringe perhaps. No it will not solve all of the real problems. Do it anyway. You will be glad you did.

The biggest thing we need to do is let people know that the protests are FUN. Yelling fuck the man is fun. You will meet fun people. We also need to make them more fun. Bring grills like the French. Bring instruments like it’s Mardi Gras. Give people a reason to spend their weekend in the streets.

Actually great to see people protesting the calamity en masse around the US

Happening now: a tremendous number of people are streaming into downtown Chicago for today's day of action. The rally/march hasn't started yet and Daley Plaza is already packed, with thousands more expected. Haven't seen a crowd this large in a while.

#HANDSOFF PROTEST feed!

Really apparent something massive is going to give in this country and I do not think anyone is ready for it.

"We owe each other everything actually" is exactly the reminder I think we all need right now.

Wrote about the Trump tariffs, how astronomically stupid it all is, possible effects on Puerto Rico, and what we - collectively - can do to get over this new calamity heavyweather.media/liberation-t...

Puerto Rico imports about 85% of the food we eat, and when you couple the new tariff scheme with the Jones Act, things are going to get expensive as shit in the archipelago. heavyweather.media/liberation-t...

this shit is horrifying www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Cut together some choice moments from a Capcom office tour VHS from 1996, including some wild looking arcade development cabinets

Everyone’s already said this, but it would be pretty hilarious if the Switch costing $900 is what makes Gamers turn on the Right (i’m doubtful but alas)

Nayib Bukele, the president of El Salvador, responded to news of the judge’s order by posting a GIF of a confused bunny on X.

For years, it’s been clear that the Trump admin was looking at human rights being ignored or outright eliminated in other countries as a an example of what they could do here if they came to power. The question is which country are they going to copy next.

hey um, the National Weather Service is getting screwed. apparently tons of websites are set to go dark tonight because of lack of funds. Weather forecasters are saying this is going to affect warnings and predictions *immediately*

After all the discourse over whether super-intelligent, ultra-powerful AI is coming, we now have a prime example of exactly how AI is massively disruptive, today: When it is used by lazy, reckless, and malicious people in power. Welcome to the age of AI-generated economic collapse, everyone

wokeness was keeping the economy afloat. wokeness kept planes in the air. wokeness kept us all safe

Here is the top comment on this article: “You are advising responsible honest people who have worked hard, saved all their lives… to scale down their retirement dreams because a one person has decided to destroy the US economy. Why not write an article about how to get rid of the real problem?”

I'm 18. The economy enters a once-in-a-century recession. A Republican president is responsible. I'm 29. There is once-in-a-century pandemic that leads to a once-in-century-recession. A Republican is responsible. I'm 35. Tarriffs trigger a once-in-a-century recession. A Republican is responsible.

Like many others, she searched her own name and discovered scads of degrading AI-generated abuse imagery. She's spent the last year finding and taking down the content. It's a look at the mind of a deepfake harasser, and a glimpse into the fallout their targets endure www.404media.co/deepfakes-ha...

2/3 of your discord friends just took a step off the ledge

Molly Conger is an incredible talent and deserves your vote. She has helped me numerous times with Better Offline for no other reason than that she is really nice and has brain worms too. One of the all time greats

NEW: NOAA operations slowed by mandate for Commerce Secretary to approve ALL contracts/contract extensions above $100,000. This nearly led to a significant deterioration of Nat'l Weather Service operations last night. www.axios.com/2025/04/01/n...
