I’ve put a potato in Volt and Valkyr. Volt is very fun all around. Valkyr being too angry to die is great. I really like the cc playstyle of Nyx, but I don’t have any more potatoes.
Last night I unlocked my first Prime, Gauss. And I’m excited to play him when he’s done cooking on Monday. :)

Hahaha. That’s amazing. :)

Tons of fun.

And, it’s not like i felt offended or menaced or anything. It’s just… really freaking weird.

I mean, I guess I respect the diversity of the player base, but, that’s some weird shit right?

So, I’ve been playing Warframe for a month and so far I have been randomly matched with “MrToxicWhiteGuy” “ChineseMan1” and “IBlackGuy.”
I played Destiny for over 1,000 hours and was never matched with a player named after their (alleged) race.
Am I missing a joke or something?

It’s a simple faith

Clarence Thomas Admits That He’s Coming for Our Rights In a little-covered speech, the Supreme Court justice explained how he thinks the court should reverse rulings conservatives don’t like.

A wonderfully cogent piece by @elienyc.bsky.social that does a great job explaining in plain English why Thomas' approach to jurisprudence isn't just casual partisan hackery but an existential threat to the foundations of how the SC is supposed to function. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Clarence Thomas announced that he doesn't care about precedent and is making it up as he goes along. He didn't say it *like that* of course, because then people would have noticed.
But I noticed, through the jargon, and explain it here in @thenation.

Right. ... Right :(.

I only wanted to watch the part highlighted but this was so good from the get go, I’m watching it all. Nice job

I'm in the sad place where every repair on my car costs more than the value of the car. :(

YouTube video by Roland S. Martin White preacher tears into right wing embrace of white Christian nationalism

This was well worth watching

Gamers have a bigger collective action problem than a herd of cats.

A YouTuber I really like, @joshstrifehayes.bsky.social, says something like "Everybody is one CGI trailer away from abandoning all principles."

FemShep will decide in the first 10 minutes that she's better off moving to Earth and having children, then the game will put up an ad to donate to TPUSA and restart

Electroinic Arts just got bought out by the Saudis and Jared Kushner's firm.

Mass Effect 4 is going to have heteronormative romances only and you're going to be working to bring "peace" to the galaxy by crushing dissent. :(

Yes. It would also be good if they did that last time or had any intention of doing it in the future.

I'm on the board of Demand Justice, so I'm not an objective source on this. But... I like this. :)

Oh there’s a real pearl near the beginning so definitely watch the rest 😁

I mean, the dude *started* with "I have no respect for you" so... my gloves were off before he finished his second sentence.

David From North Carolina and the Big FAFO

The whole thing is worth listening, but at 34.30... TAKES OFF. ✨

"at least half of this country votes for pain for others" fuuuuuuuucccccck

That was my favorite. :)

I think I did some good work here overall, but my guess is that most people are going to want to fast forward to the 34:30 mark to hear me and "David" from North Carolina.

You were doing the Lord’s work this morning! Was glad to hear the number of callers who thanked and praised you for your work—you deserve it!

Not sure there are enough blood pressure meds in this country for John from TX and the prick from NC who yelled at you to make it through their day. 😏

Anyway, I'm going to be on @cspanwj.bsky.social at 9:00 tomorrow to talk about the baseless Comey lawsuit, the weaponization of the DOJ.

Usually, I know the inane things the Republican callers will say, but this time, I'm kind of blind. Find out with me.

Still strong. I'm just getting into it and it's very "oh look, look at all this content that is not vaulted away so I can never see it again." :)

Watching "How the Mets died" videos is merging with the "How Destiny 2 died" videos and also "How the Justice Department died" videos... and it just really feels like I should just move to London, play Warframe, and root for Liverpool. Like, I'm sick of everything I like dying.
