On the hardware side, PS5 saw the most extensive discounting. So, it got a big sales lift.

Wouldn't take much more away from the week than that, tbh.

Spotify is helping ICE recruit more agents to: 1) infringe our rights 2) terrorize our communities 3) disappear legal residents 4) smash into cars & private homes 5) tackle & detain lawmakers indivisible.org/cancel-spotify

Spotify Wrapped is usually a fun way to reflect on what you’ve listened to over the year and share your tastes with friends.

But it hits different when it’s paired with propaganda for Trump’s deportation machine.

My little treat last month was a Game Informer subscription. Just checking my mail box every day.

Argue with a wall about Michelle Yeoh’s casting. I thought she did great, just like everyone else in the cast.

Wicked is great. A better movie, in terms of its story and pacing, than a show, in fact.

I’ll happily watch them both back to back soon.

Not to brag but I have two therapists now.

The author John Green found an audience of millions making YouTube videos with his brother, Hank. As more people aspire to become influencers, Green warns that internet fame may make it feel as if everyone knows and loves you, “but in fact, no one knows you.” www.nytimes.com/2025/11/22/m...

Just replayed Mario Odyssey. Man what a game. The minute this fucking realistic dragon out of Fire Emblem drops into the frame is just incredible.

Whoa: A federal court just barred Texas from using its new congressional map, drawn by the GOP to target Dems.

"Substantial evidence shows that Texas racially gerrymandered the 2025 Map."

Court says the old map must be used in 2026. Appeals are certain. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Holy accuracy

With Cornyn MIA & still not voting, votes can still be changed. An effective leader would be burning up phone lines trying to flip one of the Dems who voted yes to kill this deal.

So, what’s Schumer doing right now?

Let me return to the feel good moment of the night.

Supreme Court issues emergency order to block full SNAP food aid payments The Supreme Court has granted the Trump administration’s emergency appeal to temporarily block a court order to fully fund SNAP food aid payments amid the government shutdown.

It’s important to note this was a procedural action, not a ruling on the merits of the underlying case. Justice Jackson wasn’t siding with the Trump administration; she was making sure the legal process unfolded correctly and fairly.

Mamdani: "We can respond to oligarchy and authoritarianism with the strength it fears, not the appeasement it craves. After all, if anyone can show a nation betrayed by Donald Trump how to defeat him, it is the city that gave rise to him."

Someone find this party and start playing Not Like Us outside of it
