Fifteen years ago, I got my dream job writing for MLSsoccer. Last week, that came to an end.

I'm off on my own, and it's time to build something new – with a little help from all of you.

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

That fraud scheme in Minnesota involving Somali Americans that Trump has trumpeted? FBI agents were pulled off the case to do routine immigration work, delaying the investigation, according to this revelatory oral history by Emily Bazelon and @rachelposer.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Here's what a hellworld producer is: a person who believes in one true methodology to structuring projects and insists on compressing that template onto the dev team regardless of efficacy or how the team feels about it.

When exactly did Congress authorize Border Patrol to start occupying American cities with brute force because the federal government deemed its officials guilty of "collusion and corruption"?

Also, if that's what he's looking for, I have some staggering news about his bosses in Washington.

Absolutely reprehensible that AG Bondi is offering ICE stand down in exchange for access to voting rolls. Outrageous and disgusting. It shows ICE is in Minneapolis is not for law enforcement purposes. Instead it’s a way to stir up shit in blue states and extort them.

Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti
Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti

β€œWe are heartbroken but also very angry.

Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact.

I do not throw around the β€˜hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. 

Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

He's directing traffic. He steps inbetween ICE and two women who are being harrassed by them (one of whom was shoved to the ground for no reason), raises his hands and turns away from them and says "Okay! Okay!" to indicate he isn't going to be aggressive, at which point they start with pepper spray

I'm still thinking about Twisted Pixel's engine splash screen that played whenever you booted up one of their games.
