Oh

Helena Real speaks candidly about Dungeon World 2 The co-designer of the sequel talks about its challenges and controversies.

Our 2026 Pledge Drive continues and so here's more of our work, now un-paywalled as a gift from our subscribers.

As the development for Dungeon World 2 continues, here's a deep, introspective conversation with one of the developers.

​A screenshot of a post from the account Acyn featuring a video of Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC). The text of the post quotes AOC speaking about the humanitarian crisis in Cuba, drawing parallels to Gaza. ​She describes a "new era of depravity" where innocent civilians are starved or deprived because their political regimes are found "objectionable." She emphasizes the need to defend human rights, mentioning the risk of hospitals running out of fuel and children being put in harm's way. The video thumbnail shows AOC walking through a hallway while being interviewed by a reporter holding a microphone. ​Would you like me to help you draft more QRTs based on these specific images or provide a deeper summary of the AOC video?

The United States is purposefully blockading Cuba from accessing fuel that powers everything from grocery stores to hospitals. People will die. Children will die. What's being done to the people of Cuba is monstrous.

The people in power were ok with it in Gaza and now they're doing it to Cuba.

Oh so was that him in the White House the other day?

A newborn's death likely linked to the mom drinking raw milk while pregnant Health officials in New Mexico have said a newborn baby died from a listeria infection likely linked to the child's mother drinking raw milk during pregnancy

Raw milk, brought to you by the same people trying to ban trans healthcare.

The nazis raided and burned the first gender clinic. The Reagan revolution closed down most of the gender clinics in the US and left coverage uninsurable for decades. We've been here before. We'll get through just as we always have. With strength and resilience in community. They can't eradicate us.

As ICE uses Palantir tech to find neighborhoods to raid and Flock cameras track people across the US, how can you protect yourself?

We want ICE abolished and their agents hauled before Nuremberg style tribunals. Anything less is a policy failure.

“Melania” Is a Forty-Million-Dollar Journey Into the Void The First Lady’s lavish new documentary portrays world events as B-roll between wardrobe changes.

The director of “Melania,” Brett Ratner, spent years in movie-biz exile amid multiple allegations of sexual harassment and assault. “For his comeback, he has summoned all the artistic ambition of a local Realtor who just got a drone,” Lauren Collins writes. newyorkermag.visitlink.me/tsTVZ9

This is going to end with them defending pedophilia, isn't it.

Feds Identify “Leader of Antifa” The list they're creating says so, anyway

🚨 Documents leaked to me reveal a federal watchlist of American protesters suspected of being Antifa - including its supposed leader.

One Department of Homeland Security document says a 29-year-old resident of Portland "is the leader of Antifa":

Preach

Security-by-default should be table stakes for any agent framework. The 'just add auth later' mindset is how we get credential leaks in production. Agents need guardrails baked in, not bolted on.

DHS Says Critical ICE Surveillance Footage From Abuse Case Was Actually Never Recorded, Doesn't Matter Court records reveal the incredibly sad state of ICE's evidence retention systems.

In its most recent filing, however, the government claims that the footage was never recorded in the first place and, furthermore, it would appreciate if the plaintiffs would stop asking for it because it would be of “marginal relevance” anyway.

This is a common thing with Vibe Coding. You prompt an agent to build something but it ignores any security efforts unless you explicitly request it.

Lazy and bad programmers are made worse with AI agents.

Musk to Epstein: ‘What Day/Night Will Be the Wildest Party on Your Island?’ New emails show Musk has been lying about his relationship with Epstein.

Wait, you mean to tell me the guy who built the largest CSAM generator ever wanted to party hard at Epstein's island?! You don't say!

Federal Agents Arrest Don Lemon Over Minnesota Church Protest

In this gift article, it states the magistrate judge rejected the evidence for Lemon, & then the appeals court refused to overrule her.

Arresting him after (repeated) judicial rejection reeks of Authoritarian Process Abuse, where intimidation replaces adjudication.

The Regime has no guardrails.

Looking at the mug shots Bondi posted of folks who allegedly impeded ICE officers... I'm reminded me of some of the iconic 1960s images of 'criminals' from counter sitins and freedom rides

The cruelty is big business

Mission accomplished.

even if you don't use said app, please take note:

"The SS should round up people at night instead of the street during the day" is a hell of a take.

This is why Walz won't actually defend his state. He doesn't want to stop what ICE is doing, he just wants better optics.

A screenshot of a post on X (formerly Twitter) by user Cam Higby (@camhigby), dated January 24, 2026. The post's text reads: "🚨🚨 MINNEAPOLIS SIGNAL INFILTRATED. I have infiltrated organizational signal groups all around Minneapolis with the sole intention of tracking down federal agents and impeding/assaulting/and obstructing them. BUCKLE UP ALL WILL BE REVEALED. Each area of the city has a signal or several signals. Let’s start with a screen recording of all members of the south side group to start." Below the text is a vertical video thumbnail showing a long list of members in a Signal group chat. The names include aliases and emojis such as "SJ (FLLAK)," "toni," "Pika," "sharkie," "Yoon-Hee," and others. A large translucent watermark with the name "Cam Higby" is layered over the list. The post shows 22.8M views.

Friendly reminder that any signal group chat that has people in it you don't know is potentially infiltrated and anything you say in there could be scraped and shared with anyone, including law enforcement.

Encryption does not stop people from leaking chats. See Atlantic signalgate.

DHS Says Critical ICE Surveillance Footage From Abuse Case Was Actually Never Recorded, Doesn't Matter Court records reveal the incredibly sad state of ICE's evidence retention systems.

NEW: Remember when we reported that a Chicago ICE facility accused of human rights abuses said they "lost" two weeks of surveillance footage? Turns out, they never actually recorded anything.

This is in response to a class action lawsuit where detainees say they were held in subhuman conditions.

The people in this administration are simply evil.

Republican Chris Madel announced he’s ending his run for Minnesota governor, saying he cannot support the national GOP’s “stated retribution on the citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so.”
