The next recession is going to make Occupy look like the Senate Democratic caucus.

"Well, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em! 😩" -- The Democrats

Read every word & share with everyone you know. This is real life here in Chicago. Americans need to know this grotesque reality & stand with us.

seems to me that those democrats inclined not to fight perceive themselves as living through a somewhat ordinary cycle of presidential overreach and backlash and not something much more significant and dangerous

The stream is over! We ran a little long tonight, but we beat the bird Pope, did some side quests, and pushed the story forward. Things went off the rails! We then raided Desolatereality who's currently playing footage of his morning hike.

Chuck Schumer Helps Pull Democrats Back From Brink Of Courage

Chuck Schumer Helps Pull Democrats Back From Brink Of Courage

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.

Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

Not that he didn’t already know, but now Trump knows for sure he can roll the Dems every time and there’s no need to negotiate for anything

Imagine caving to a guy with an approval rating near a record-low point, who just soundly lost an election, and just got booed mere hours ago.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

Game cover art from Laika: Aged Through Blood. An anthropomorphic coyote rides on a motorcycle with her young son clinging to her back. A red cape flows behind her like blood, and the skull of a bird threatens to sallow her and her son whole. Above the bird skull are various anthropomorphic bird soldiers holding heavy guns, in formal military dress, and with tanks.

I'm playing through Laika: Aged Through Blood. It features coyote mom on motorcycle action. I'm finally taking the fight to the fascist birds!

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.

If they really cave to this loser...

Wow, Republican turnout really is in the pits.

Heads up for folx playing Arc Raiders: Embark has openly stated (in an interview with GamesRadar+), that the game uses the same AI voice tech as The Finals, and the CEO has talked about using AI to generate 3D models from YouTube rips.

If you're anti-AI you should not be playing Arc Raiders!

DC Live! Laika: Aged Through Blood, Part 10 Livestream at 8 ET – Damage Control Blog Tonight I take out the bird pope in Laika: Aged Through Blood. If I'm already destroying a religious temple, I might as well finish off its leader.

Tonight I'll be livestreaming more Laika: Aged Through Blood for @damagecontrolblog.bsky.social on Twitch. I'll become the ultimate heretic by taking out the bird pope, Melva VIII. Join me at 8 ET for a round of blasphemy and motorcycle action!

Square Enix and the Machine Uprising – Damage Control Blog The announcements of their AI pursuits and layoffs could not have had worse timing.

ICYMI I wrote about how Square Enix's announcement of AI investments and their layoffs couldn't have been better timed, in a sign of things to come, for a @damagecontrolblog.bsky.social post. www.dcgameblog.com/2025/11/squa...

Yeah, I think if the next one isn't R and goes out of its way not to be, the skeptics might have a point.

Oh, I know. I'm just taking a shot at all the people who speculated that Disney forced this to be PG-13.

‘Predator: Badlands’ Sets Franchise Record With $40 Million Debut, Snapping Box Office Cold Streak "Predator: Badlands" is this weekend's apex predator at the box office.

I wonder if anyone's fretting about Predator: Badlands' success potentially leading to Disney/20th Century Studios green lighting more PG-13 Predator movies. variety.com/2025/film/bo... (I also just remembered that Prey skipped theaters.)

no amount of state propaganda will ever convince me this man is my enemy

Fedora man unmasked: Meet the teen behind the Louvre mystery photo Fifteen-year-old Pedro Elias Garzon Delvaux has become an internet sensation after an Associated Press photo captured him outside the Louvre on the day of a crown jewels heist.

Loving today's news that the mysterious "fedora man" outside the Louvre heist was actually a 15-year-old museum visitor who dresses like a 1940s French detective all the time, just because. apnews.com/article/louv...

So the oldest person ever to become president keeps falling asleep in his office during public events and there’s no big public discussion on how this is a coverup or how republicans are lying to us about how this government is running?

With a “WOW!,” President Trump posts a claim about DOGE and “royalties linked to Obamacare” that originated on a satirical website. That site’s own About section reads: “Everything on this website is fiction… If you believe that it is real, you should have your head examined.”

Joyce Carol Oates @Joyce... 17h O So curious that such a wealthy man never posts anything that indicates that he enjoys or is even aware of what virtually everyone appreciates— scenes from nature, pet dog or cat, praise for a movie, music, a book (but doubt that he reads); pride in a friend's or relative's accomplishment; condolences for someone who has died; pleasure in sports, acclaim for a favorite team; references to history. In fact he seems totally uneducated, uncultured. The poorest persons on Twitter may have access to more beauty & meaning in life than the "most wealthy person in the world."

Elon Musk ' @elonmusk X.com Oates is a liar and delights in being mean. Not a good human.

lol she got his ass and he knows it

This is like saying "we're replacing banks with DraftKings", any journalists treating it seriously and not screaming their heads off about how totally deranged it is should be sent to the gulag

YouTube video by Charalanahzard I probably shouldn't post this

Here’s my breakdown of EA’s pending sale… to Saudi Arabia… and why this is much, much bigger than video games. I’m late to this from a ‘news’ perspective obviously, but it’s because I worked on this video for about a month.

I thought some images of Chun-Li in Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves were photoshopped, until I realized they were real. The thighs from some angles would make even Daigo Ikeno blush.
