Weโ€™re done waiting around. Itโ€™s time to take our power back.

On January 20th, an ICE agent detained a 5-year-old elementary school student, named Liam Conejo Ramos.

Itโ€™s vile. Itโ€™s disgusting.

Abolishing and prosecuting ICE must be the moderate position. I question the humanity of any Democrat who states otherwise.

Weโ€™ve fully embraced this in our houseโ€”if the kids can read it, they can read it.

when the tides of power shift - and they will - there need to be tribunals to hold to account every person who was involved in this regime. accept nothing less.

And how can we put pressure on our politicians to start seriously considering this step?

โ€œWhen people try to sell you on the idea that the future is already settled, itโ€™s because it is deeply unsettled,โ€ Cottom said in a recent panel at the Urban Consulate in Detroit. โ€œI think that, yโ€™know this promise of an artificial intelligence future, is really just a collective anxiety that very wealthy, powerful people have about how well theyโ€™re gonna be able to control us.โ€

โ€œIf they can get us to accept that the future is already settled โ€” AI is already here, the end is already here โ€” then we will create that for them,โ€ Cottom continued. โ€œMy most daring idea is to refuse,โ€ she said to applause.

As the backlash to generative Al in video games continues to pick up steam heading into 2026, it'll be fascinating to see what is considered "made with generative Al." Can a dev team say thev're not using Al if thev're writing desian docs with Copilot or using chatGPT to make schedules and budgets?

It's very easy:

Just don't. The idea that Copilot or ChatGPT are suddenly essential tools is just buying into the corporate ad blitz.

Games were made just fine (well, relatively) up through...what, 2023? 2024? They didn't suddenly become VITAL for budgets or design docs in the last 2-3 years.

Made the last-minute decision to skip work tonight and wrap more presents while watching our very favorite #Christmas movie, #thegreenknight

I showed my kids a bunch of my favorite sci-fi movies and now Iโ€™m rewarded with surprises like this. #lego #arrival

Hot take I guess but if I find out you used chatgpt to "research" for your book I'm not reading it either.

A heartfelt message for family members who have been totally fucking radio silent about MAGA persecution of trans youthโ€”never once checked in on our kidโ€”wanting to connect for Christmas:

Wow, itโ€™s almost like people donโ€™t want to live in state that threatens them, their friends, and their family. Who could have ever imagined?

Trans Youth Emergency Project Offers Families Guidance To Help Keep Getting Care After New Trump Anti-Trans Rule The organization tells EITM that they are prepared to scale up for further shutdown of care, and can offer most families places to continue getting care.

A new federal rule would ban gender affirming care at virtually every hospital system in the country.

Now, an organization says they've prepared, have private clinics and financial aid ready for families that need them.

Thank you. You are my trans daughterโ€™s favorite authorโ€”sheโ€™s too young for social media, but I read this to her. It means a lot to be able to share a message like this from someone she admires.

I thought my kids were punking me but no, there is indeed a D&D TV channel with D&D cooking shows.

Dog-Man was fineโ€”I enjoyed seeing it because M is a huge Dog-Man fan and it was fun to watch her watch it. Itโ€™s not something I would watch on my own.

I loved Phantom Thread. Itโ€™s probably my favorite of the PT Anderson films Iโ€™ve seen so far.

I donโ€™t! I actually donโ€™t even know what that is, but Iโ€™ll check it out. I keep lists of all the movies Iโ€™ve watched categorized by year.

Since this Iโ€™ve rewatched all the LOTR movies and seen Dog-Man, We Live in Time, Kinds of Kindness, and Phantom Thread.

It's good that there's a 25% tarriff on imported coffee now. This will incentivize people to purchase American coffee, grown in the New Jersey coffee forests
