headline: Ambitious Fallout: Nuevo Mexico mod cancelled to prioritise developer's mental health and "face reality" "Continuing forward simply isn't sustainable."

r/falloutnewvegas u/Warm_Charge_5964 @woke8yearold 15h The creator of a big Fallout: New Vegas mod called Nuevo Mexico is being deported to Mexico because he was reported to ICE by other Bethesda fans Tamriel Rebuilt Community Watchdog @TR_Watchdog Hi! Just felt obligated to say that the reasons listed are complete bullshit - its actually because we put in an ICE tip on the project lead, and he's being sent back to Mexico Tamriel Rebuilt Community Watchdog @TR Watchdog. Jan 29 Replying to @TR_Watchdog And it didn't take long for our diligence to bear fruit. 1/27/2025, in the #dev-misc channel, José sent a flurry of messages. Show more

fascist gamers got so mad at a guy who was working on a Fallout: New Vegas mod that they called ICE on him. suspect we'll see more of this kind of thing in the future. what a nightmare.

I like how elegantly you’ve called out that greg abbott is part of this new maga/pro-trump party. The issue is not democrat versus republican, it’s fascist-maga versus… everyone else?

It’s a philosophical question I guess, but who are “we” in contrast? Are we all truly democrats, or anti-fascists?

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are leaning on each other, nuzzling their heads together with their eyes closed. Green: Remember when we first started talking, and you had no picture of yourself on your profile? Blue: Yeah? Green: You were so nice, I didn't care what you'd look like. You being beautiful was just a bonus. Blue opens his eyes to look at Green, as Green listens attentively. Blue: On our first few dates I wasn't sure if you were male or female. I just thought you're funny and cute. Green pulls away enough to look Blue in the eye with astonishment, and Blue meets his gaze unbothered. Green: You didn't know, and you never asked me? Blue: Didn't really matter to me. I would have liked you either way.

I meant to write “public-facing websites,” my bad!

So, what are our alternate systems for sharing information about women’s health and the impact of new laws on women’s bodies? Do we have a Google Sheets document going around?

But I think that assuming that because the data has been purged from public-facing data means that we are facing an all-powerful enemy, assumes that trump and elon have way more brains and strategic thinking than they do.

I realize that the answer is supposed to be that people are not supposed to be able to share information in a fascist government to prevent voters from organizing against the people in charge.

Question: if more laws about abortion are being passed and the CDC is purging published data about people’s health, how will we know how many women are dying because of bans?

Four panels, Simpsons cartoon. 1, 2: Teacher says, “Put your garbage in a garbage can, people. I can’t stress that enough.” 3: Marge mutters, “This is so humiliating.” 4: Homer takes notes, “Garbage in garbage can. Makes sense.”

Some days I am Marge, some days I am Homer 🤷‍♀️

With climate change inevitable, more on-the-ground disaster workers will be needed. Could a model like California’s, training and using incarcerated people to fight climate disasters, be scaled nation-wide as the modern Civilian Conservation Corps?

I never thought it was that complicated 🤷‍♀️

Add the optional step: “apologize if you did an oopsy!”

Preschool-level rules are too complicated for some people

A simple guide to avoiding cancellation:

1) Keep your hands to yourself. Fans & colleagues aren't there for your sexual gratification.

2) No, really. Keep your hands to yourself.

3) Don't say hateful shit.

4) Avoid thinking hateful shit. It's not hard.

5) That's it. Hands. Hateful shit. Really.

If so, are we dropping any pretense that putting Trump and Musk in the president’s office is intertwining Twitter with the federal government, and creating the dumbest monopoly?

I just received an Amber alert with a link. Since the alert was labeled “Child Abduction,” I immediately clicked the link and was brought to X. I have never had Twitter or X, and there is no option to read the alert without an account. Is an X account required to receive Amber alerts? #amberalert

This was an amazing book, I think this was my introduction to “emotional truth” contrasted with “literal truth.” Thank you for the reminder!
