Dogshit racists like this repeating eugenicist nazi slop should stop participating in society, I think. Wish the smoking gun coming out his mouth wasn't metaphorical
Ken says he cares on a personal level about trans rights more than anything else, but when asked to unsubscribe from NYT games because it's funding the ongoing efforts of the publication to lay the rhetorical framework for trans genocide, he snarkily put them on blast to his large following.
Ken Jennings@kenjennings.bsky.social · 3d agoFor the record: NOPE. Honestly, I don’t think there’s an issue today I care about on a personal level more deeply than trans rights. And it’s rough out there right now. Bigots on one side of the political aisle and too many cowards on the other. ⬇️
YES YES YES TURN THE PAST INTO AN UNREADABLE BULLSHIT SMEAR TURN THE FUTURE INTO A DEADLY WASTELAND COST OF LIVING KEEPS GOING UP VALUE OF LIFE KEEPS GOING DOWN THE TRUE GOAL OF HUMAN EXISTENCE IS TOTAL SELF-ANNIHILATION ALIENS WILL PICK OVER OUR BONES AND CONCLUDE IT WAS ALL A HOAX

Personally if I was in a room with the world's most powerful rapist and was getting an award for my work critical of his historical friendship with the world's most famous pedophile, I wouldn't want to shake his hand.
Dan Diamond@ddiamond.bsky.social · 2w agoRemarkable camera angle of President Trump as he listens to Wall Street Journal reporters receiving an award for their investigation into Trump’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein — which they pursued despite Trump’s threats and lawsuit.
Currently playing through UTAKATA, which seems to be a solo megawad from a japanese doom fan. About halfway through now and it's been great - Lots of cute gags, some well-realized environments with interesting combat. This screenshot from the end of a level called "Red Liquid Factory"
"Close Pine Gap" Mural in Gadigal / Sydney calling for the closure the US spy base in central Australia. Activists from around the continent converged on the facility in recent days to demand the site be returned to it's traditional owners, the indigenous Arrernte people.
Dean of Doom is a great series covering a wide array of impressive Doom levels since the original release all the way up to modern productions, and covering Sunder is a big ask. If you're not aware of just how incredible some community-made levels are in Doom, check this video out.

Democrat about a demon who spent his career desperately swiping at the levers of power in the hopes of killing thousands of innocent people overseas: "Thought we did not often agree, Senator Graham was never disagreeable." Graham recently advocated to "flatten" Gaza like the US did to Hiroshima.
Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.gov · 3w agoWhat I’ll remember most about Senator Graham was his sense of humor and how he deployed it to move his policy positions forward. Though we did not often agree, Senator Graham was never disagreeable.
I read that Bonnie Tyler has passed. While "Total Eclipse of the Heart" is a great song, I'll always remember "Holding Out for a Hero", which slaps. I know it's used in Shrek 2 but will always associate it with tearing up at the climax of Short Circuit 2 where Johnny 5 chases down the bad guy

Representative democracy codifies the damaging association of policy positions with individual avatars. You can't vote for a policy, you have to vote for someone who promises that they will look out for your interests. This is a feature desirable to those who would deprive the public of public goods
Recent media thoughts: - Dragonball Xenoverse 2 is pretty fun, but *really* suffers from having six menus between you and the fighting. Every loading screen has a one second fade-in, every menu is a list of sub-menus. Give me a DB game focused on earlier stuff in the style of MGR:Revengeance pls
If you aren't at minimum suspicious of men who profess to believe in the principles of an 'inalienable right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness' while they actively own slaves and call for genocidal imperialism, you may lack skill in the art of critical reasoning.

Since apparently this isn't making it beyond UK news yet, Rockstar petitioned a British court to section an 18 year old autistic kid under the mental health act for hacking their server and leaking a short GTA 6 clip a couple of years ago. No trial, no term of sentence, just locked up in hospital.
Lapsus$: GTA 6 hacker handed indefinite hospital order
Judge says hacker remains a high risk through his skills and motivation to carry out cyber-crime.

Winter@kernowshark.bsky.social · last mo.Locking up an autistic kid in a mental hospital for life for leaking a clip of a game is bullshit. Guess I'm never playing a Rockstar game again.

I dunno dude I kind of feel like if I worked at the same job as someone making this kind of dumbfuck idiot shit-for-brains dunderhead clownshow headass glue-eating take every week I'd be updating my linkedin out of embarrassment. Writers should be disciplining their field a lot harder, with hammers
Tom Nichols@radiofreetom.bsky.social · last mo.If the message from some of you here is "it's okay to be Stalinists because our opponents are Nazis," be ready for the possibility that - given that choice - people will choose Nazis.
Welcome to relax enjoy SCROLL BREAK. Please feel cool vibe of laid back Doom Cacodemon. I hope this pause brings you large satisfy.
The demo for Val'ty was cute and fun and also extremely strange, but this moment got me.
MOLE was excellent. Shares DNA with Mouthwashing, THRESHOLD, and Mike Klubnika's work such as s.p.l.i.t Chilling subterranean horror, absolutely worth your time if any of these titles interested you. Bonus points for all the interactive machinery, levers, switches etc.
