RFK Jr.’s new drive to get us off anti-depressants brings home the vast number of death’s he’s already been personally responsible for, and the sheer amount of suffering. I believe that he alone, even among the crew he’s a part of, will be remembered as something other than, worse than, a villain.
The best tribute to Dolly Parton is that she regularly and repeatedly refused to have anything to do with Piers Morgan
What horseshit. She embraced gay people at the height of the AIDS crisis, embraced trans people at the height of the war against them, supported Black communities and artists, and wrote the most pro-worker's rights feminist pop song of all time. Neutral my ass
CNN@cnn.com · yesterday"At a time when no American celebrity seems immune from the country’s many divisions, Dolly Parton was a crossover icon who stayed neutral in the culture wars while still speaking her mind," writes Zachary B. Wolf. | Analysis
Geoff is a spineless, soulless creep who has always been a tool to push nasty shit. We've seen similar pushes by the industry to normalize loot boxes, microtransactions, preorder DLC, battle passes, temporary content, and more. And Geoff has been there for all of them.
FYI the HUGE number of AI slop at GamesCom's opening night live is not a sign that the industry has normalized AI. It's a ploy to make you believe that. These games are all by the same 3 or 4 publishers. This is a concerted effort to make consumers accept AI.
Some people might not be aware, but it is entirely possible that without Dolly Parton we wouldn’t have had a COVID vaccine. She partly funded Moderna’s research and gave the largest individual contribution to make it all happen. Just gives you an idea of the kind of person she was.
Republicans have spent the last year trying to defund Dolly Parton
The Republican stance on trans surgeries generally shakes out to be “we are all obligated to remain in the body that God gave us, unless your parents want to snip some stuff off down there real quick when you’re a baby”

Did you know Linda McMahon spent years allegedly covering up a pedophile ring in her workplace while letting them keep doing their thing because the primary perpetrators were her friends?
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 4d agoEducation Secretary Linda McMahon: "This state will probably blow your mind. It did mine. Do you know one in 10 children before they finish high school will be sexually molested in school?"
I am so thoroughly grateful for the support with votes and sharing during the semifinals, and I'm excited to open a chapter with Andamiro. I'm looking forward to playing ELEVATE with everyone else once it is added. Congrats to all of the winners!
I guess it's kind of hard to view the dismissal of one grublike phrenologist as a major hit to free speech after major American universities have in the past year banned the use of words and eliminated entire departments in the hopes of pleasing the senile president
RTA in Japan, a Japanese speedrunning event similar to AGDQ etc. has a list of situations that result in disqualification Among these are rules like no sexual content or adults only rated games but then a blanket ban for any Harry Potter games Source rtain.jp/submission-g... Alt text within image

No matter who you are, if your body is injured or sick or wearing down, you should be able to get care. I cannot say it enough that this is only an American problem
The word "affair" was never uttered, and yet apparently every single conservative talking head in the world heard it anyway, so what does that tell you?
Looks like the WH put out the bat signal in the influencer groupchat because hit dogs are hollerin'. Ossoff's "travel with Natalie" is causing a nuclear-level MAGA meltdown and a lot of inference is happening from just 3 words, so Trump's camp seems to be telling on him. Yikes.
I would like to go on record stating that I think all art should be 100x hornier. maybe 200x
"Turn-based" shouldn't be a dirty term, but you must provide the context that in the last 3+ decades, western games journalism and developers have smeared and dismissed "turned-based" games and imprinted this on an older western audience.
Hayes Madsen@solfleet.bsky.social · last wk.Hey I wrote a whole feature about this, and I’d say the devs making turn-based games largely don’t agree gameinformer.com/feature/2026...
Any post-Trump reform has to start with the courts. Every single tool the courts have used to expand Presidential power under Trump? Tools that can be used to obliterated his legacy? Those same judges will suddenly find them unconstitutional when a Democrat starts using them.
does any one wanna bounce on it for investigative journalism purposes
