As the parent of teenagers, I am generally thankful they only have an unhealthy obsession with Minecraft.

Who would have thought that betting would get so bad parents would be happy their kids are spending hours a day playing video games instead?

As long as you cave after April 3rd as long as he's the lone GOP senate candidate running in 2026, thus allowing the people of Oklahoma to choose between an actual human being and someone whose ineligible, I won't be too angry at you.

If you know your obscure political history you know that if all the cards are right, then upsets like this CAN happen. I'm looking at you Audie Bock beating Elihu Harris by 327 votes:

ABOUT N'KIYLA JASMINE THOMAS β€” Jasmine Thomas for Oklahoma N'Kiyla Jasmine Thomas is running for US Senate in the state of Oklahoma against MarkWayne Mullin. N'Kiyla believes in people over politics and community over corporations.

fun facts:
1) Markwayne is running for re-election. Filing deadline is APRIL 3RD.
2) If Markwayne is the GOP lone candidate, there is no mechanism to have another GOPer on the ballot in November.
3) Considering everything, I believe there's a legit chance the democrats can pick this up:

I’m not sure who is dumber: Kristi Noel for thinking Trump wouldn’t hang her out to dry, or Markwayne Mullin for thinking that Trump won’t hang him out to dry next?

Also note to Markwayne, watch how Noem is treated first by Trump, then the media, and lastly the courts, and then know you’re next.

An upcoming California law requires operating system providers to enforce basic mandatory age verification It's basic, and by the looks of it, near unenforceable.

As a parent, this is fucking stupid.

My kids don’t own a computer. They use my computer. So my computer says I’m adult and my kids can now use it as an adult.

Please leave parents in charge of protecting our kids from harmful content online.
Start requiring actual privacy laws to protect everyone.

A new California law says all operating systems, including Linux, need to have some form of ID verification (which they’re calling age verification) at account setup.

This makes absolutely ZERO sense if you have even the most basic understanding of technology

My Uncle started the Game Developers Conference in his living room and literally wrote the book on video game design.

He also told me that the only side effect to having prostate cancer was he couldn’t participate in multi partner orgies anymore.

I know two of my niblings got through to Eagle Scout, but the other two dropped out well before and no parents complained that they didn’t have to go through the process a third and or fourth time.

Friendly reminder: trusting the Boy Scouts to β€œdo the right thing” has never been a safe bet.

I genuinely roll my eyes when an adult treats earning Eagle Scout like it’s a moral credential.

Congrats, I guess, you spent 3–6 years inside an organization with a long history of exclusionary policies.

If Israel has a right to defend themselves. So does Iran.

This is why you use diplomacy and not bombs.

The only courage I see from American military are veterans protesting this shit.

The only active military I would support is one being court marshaled for refusing illegal orders.
