Man fuck ALL these 80 year old racist politicians

If you are a person who told everyone they were overreacting in 2016, and you have since realized you were wrong, I think you have a valuable role to play right now:

Talk to people who aren't convinced things are *that bad* about why you were wrong and what you wish you had done differently.

“Don’t want to lose SNAP? Tell the Dems to reopen the government!”

SNAP assistance gets cut in the big beautiful bill too.

Healthcare is slashed as well.

They’re withholding food for 40 million Americans to try and force the Dems to sign off on cutting food AND healthcare!

It is simultaneously frustrating and exasperating the number of calls I get from poor white people who are angry that they are the victims of the policies they support when they're used against racialized people and immigrants.

@DHSgov: "end of the dark age, beginning of the golden age." with a black box saying: "This media has been disabled in response to a report by the copyright owner."

The Department of Homeland Security shared a fash-wave-style video of police in Portland arresting and hitting protesters with teargas yesterday along to a remix of MGMT's "Little Dark Age." It looks like the band hit them with a copyright claim, as this is what viewers get as of this afternoon.

Your regular reminder that we desperately need to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics.

It is among the worst Supreme Court decisions in history.

It corrupts our political system every day.

High potentioal breaks a ratings record.

Look what happenes when a TV show releases every year, with more than 8 episodes a season.

Americans want to watch charismatic people solve moderately difficult problems on a weekly basis. That’s it. And a group of fomo execs and techbros who don’t watch TV drove one of the most profitable industries in the US off a cliff rather than accept that.

It’s evident that the GOP is keeping the government shut down indefinitely to try and force Americans into a broken submission.
We will not break. We will persevere.

It feels so weird to remember a time when sports betting was widely considered to be a scumbag activity

Almost every major news story this week is about how the entire economy is now gambling, scams, bribes and theft.

Priorities.

Medicare for All - "That's socialism!"

Social Security - "That's socialism!"

Debt free education - "That's socialism!"

Universal childcare - "That's socialism!"

Billions for Argentina, ICE, refurbishing Trump's Qatar jet, and tax cuts for the rich...

"That's just how it is."

He's still running for Mayor right? Why would I care how he polls nationally when he's not running for Congress or the Presidency?

Dear Twitch, I never want to receive an in app notification that my watch streak is about to about to end.

I also never want to receive a notification that Justin Bieber is live. I do not care when random rich people stream on Twitch. tysm.

Q: How long does it take to build a new data center? A: Approximately one closed-door city council vote.

"Nielsen data and multiple university studies show that during live games, gambling promotions now appear every one to two minutes."

"America is living through the fastest normalization of addiction infrastructure in commercial history, and the institutions that should be covering it have been bought into silence."

Donald Trump is building a $300 million luxury ballroom and sending $40 BILLION to Argentina.

But when the cost of groceries, health care, utilities — just about everything — is skyrocketing, America's seniors only get another $56 a month.

That's not enough in Trump's economy.

I want to see all new anti-trust laws if/when we come out on the backside of this shit show. Break everything the fuck up.

😕🇺🇸

every passing day, rightwingers are inventing new and unexpected ways to signal to the world they may be the dumbest iteration of humans so far

This works for everything except Nintendo games cause Nintendo executives would rather commit seppuku than have their first-party games go on sale on a regular basis. Fire Emblem Three Houses is still 60 bucks!

I can't possibly imagine having the gall to tell black Creole people from Louisiana to "just move away" from a state like that.

It's so insulting on so many levels.

Is it really easier to mass migrate million, than to ask white people to just be tolerant and empathetic? Or mind their own business?

but the cutesy cozy airport security simulator in avoiding this is far more in line with how modern border regimes and fascist politics get sold to people. the people look happy. the world is colourful. it's just a game. it's nostalgic and cozy. harry potter & marvel films

so interesting to me. papers please is immersed in the visual language of what everyone in our culture is already primed to associate with grim dystopia. you look at it and go "oh yeah, this game is about how being a border agent is fucked, the banality of evil!"

someone finally did it. a game about rote bureaucracy and policing that is much more dystopian than papers please

currently 290/300 for the second month of pushing for partner plus~ going to be checking out power wash sim 2 with lexi today if that is okay with you.
