Un mundo mejor es probable. 🚩 No se me rajen, rojos. Escribo ciencia-ficción.

The abundance of indie games is a testament and, in itself, a concrete redeeming quality of humans. The fact that this is a "problem" is an indictment of a system that sets up markets where said abundance works against itself. It's part of a crisis of overproduction, capitalism 101.

Belated and won't tag so this won't go anywhere but: Mass Effect is only as fascist as the default US-American action sci-fi story. You are correct in identifying Hitler particles, but singling it out as fascist feels a bit extreme in its proper context of questionably-ironic 40k adaptations.

Mexican here: The purported motive of the Teotihuacán mass shooter ("this is a zone of gods, there shouldn't be tourists here") has no backing among our population. Mexicans are mostly indifferent to archaeological sites, or otherwise see them as a source of tourism revenue. 1/🧵

Hot take: Bsky's userbase problem and its leadership/moderation problem are the same problem. Noided take: this is because it makes the platform vulnerable to infiltration, false flags, and all manner of psy-ops. I won't engage in fed-jacketing anyone specific but we've seen the posts. Come on.

Still image of comedian Andy Daly in a scene from the TV show Comedy Bang! Bang! (which I highly recommend). He's a middle-aged White man with blue eyes and a polo shirt. His hair is short, blonde, and combed to the side. He's looking into the camera with a gently skeptical expression. Below him, in yellow, all-caps, italicized characters, is the caption: 555-COME-ON-NOW

Being serious for a moment What would cooking competition shows look like under socialism? This is one of those dumb irrelevant questions that become deeper and more telling the more you think about it...

Ok pero ya hablando en serio ¿Cómo serían los programas de competencias de cocina en el socialismo? Es una de estas preguntas simples que empiezan tontas e irrelevantes pero que, entre más lo piensas, más importa:

Re: Zohran and his disappointing prelim. budget: I'm from and in Mexico, so I'm sort of a one-rodeo veteran wrt progressive govts. Here's my two peso cents: 1- The only Q that will ever matter is whether the people can pressure Z more than the booj. The answer is built every day. Start rn, fr (1/2)

In a sick and twisted sense fit for our sick and twisted world, the silver lining of MAGA fascism is how it's extending empathy From US liberals who didn't care about ICE until it affected them To Europeans who were indifferent to supportive of imperialist war until the threat's pointed at them

As a Mexican, I deeply empathize with the worry, anger, fear, and frustration people from Europe (and everywhere, tbh) have been feeling about Trump's policies not just this month but nigh on a damn decade at this point. I also think this current discourse is all wrong. (1/Thread, gets corny)

My most woke opinion is copaganda TV shows have done unmeasurable damage to the cause of justice and worker's rights around the world, and should therefore at the very least be the object of incessant ridicule, if not banned outright. Look at their old episodes and enforce anti-hate speech law.

"my least woke opinion is---" That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania. Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.
