Hi everyone. Chris, Jairaj, and I wanted to let you know that we've heard and have been listening to all the views being expressed about how Substack should think about the presence of fringe voices on the platform (and particularly, in this case, Nazi views).
liust want to make it clear that we don't like Nazis either-we wish no-one held those views. But some people do hold those and other extreme views.
Given that, we don't think that censorship (including through demonetizing publications) makes the problem go away- in fact, it makes it worse.
NEW: Substack founders finally respond to Substackers Against Nazis. They say Nazis publishing and earning money on their platform is fine with them.

Every photo from Minneapolis looks like this. Cops decked out with guns and full tac gear facing off against people in bathrobes, parkas, and sweatpants armed only with whistles and cell phones.
Yet every verified MAGA chode on X dutifully calls it a riot or violent insurrection.

Hey Tony Barnes, word on the street is you made a game or two?
Indeed, I have! I've also worked on some tools and programming languages used to make many games, too!
Let's pick 28 of them and post one per day, shall we?

Government Loses Hard Drives It Was Supposed to Put ICE Detention Center Footage On
A Kafkaesque saga in which the government has failed to produce critical video footage has reached new levels of absurdity.
Court battle over surveillance footage at the Broadview ICE detention center reaches new levels of kafkaesque absurdity: The DOJ claimed it *couldn't afford* hard drives to put video footage on. Plaintiffs bought THE US GOVERNMENT hard drives. ICE "lost" them.

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paulβan hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

Made this on a stream yesterday!
Challenged myself to make portraits like these every day a few years ago. This took me 2 hours, so I'll need to speed it up, I guess!
(I'm posting it again because I changed the text I previously had.)

I just sit in my office all day thinking about weird combos that can be made into power-ups for my games. I was watching Winter Soldier when I thought of a Robo Arm power-up.
