GDC is coming up, which means it’s almost time for #WhatAGameDevLooksLike! Every year this lights up my socials and it’s such a lovely and celebratory time full of belonging and joy. And every year I keep getting reminded of how much we need it as things in the industry get worse lol

"we're running out of patriot interceptor missiles. also, were running out of crab legs at the buffet"

a large part of the Art of War is Sun Tzu pinching the bridge of his nose and explaining slowly "look. when you have an army. you have to make sure they have food"

we are weeks away from 'Trump attempts to make horse a Senator' and the only thing stopping him is that he is too much of a sociopath to form an attachment to animals

Continuity of Operations Planning (COOP) A Continuity of Operations Plan is a collection of resources, actions, procedures and information that is developed, tested and kept ready in the event of a disruption of operations.

It's also a sign of how fucking hallow tech is as an industry that these chodes haven't heard of a C.O.O.P. plan (emergency management 101) and exists at the level of even tiny ass city councils in the US

Representative Frost was fabulous in this interview.

John Oliver (on right) gestures with his hands as he speaks. On left, a ProPublica headline from December 15, 2025 reads: “Trump Officials Celebrated With Cake After Slashing Aid. Then People Died of Cholera.” An article excerpt below says: "... turning rows red, yellow or green every few seconds, never asking a single question.”

1/ On yesterday’s @lastweektonight.com about USAID, John Oliver cited several of our investigations.

First up was our reporting about how DOGE operatives had arbitrarily cut aid programs, in some cases by literally clicking through a spreadsheet: propub.li/4cCsSKP

Defund ICE.

"The conversion that ICE is attempting, from warehouse to human storage, is not a renovation so much as a statement about what this administration believes immigrants are."

Line chart showing urea fertilizer prices per gallon rising from about $390 on January 2 to over $550 by March 5. The price increases gradually until late February, when it jumps sharply.

Painting depicting the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse riding across a dark sky. From left to right: a pale skeletal figure on a pale horse holding scales, a warrior on a black horse with a sword, a muscular rider on a reddish-brown horse wielding a sword, and a crowned figure on a white horse drawing a bow. Below them lie fallen bodies on a barren landscape. The dramatic scene shows stormy clouds and a small rainbow in the background. 1887 painting by Russian artist Viktor Vasnetsov. The painting depicts the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse described in the Book of Revelation. The Lamb of God is visible at the top.

POTUS has done war, death, and pestilence. He's going for a 4/4 on horseman of the apocalypse and shooting to cause famine too, what with the #war in #iran, distressed farmers dealing with #tarriffs and gutting #USAID with #doge

They are murdering civilians on the high seas.

They are murdering civilians in 🇮🇷.

They are murdering civilians in concentration camps.

They are murdering civilians on the streets of 🇺🇸 cities.

These are not problems that can be fixed with new laws or more court orders.

Y'all Got Anymore of…" is an expression typically used on discussion forums to request for additional information on a particular topic of interest, or more generally, to indicate one's intense craving for something. Originally quoted by the drug-fiending character Tyrone Biggums in Chappelle's Show, the phrase is often iterated as a reaction image or image macro format based on a still shot of Dave Chappelle's character and the phrasal template "Y'all any more of them / X?”

He had a great video before this invoking Leeeeeroy Jeeenkins re: the small handful of ships choosing a "damn the torpedos full speed ahead" approach to the strait

This video helps one understand

1 - whats going on in #Hormuz because of the #war in #Iran

2 - why the Trump admin's proposed solutions of insuring and escorting ships is unlikely to fix the issue

⛽ Fuel - this is easy to understand. 20% of global oil is not moving.

🌽 Food - less obvious. Fertilizer is made with fossil fuel components. Almost half the world's fertilizer comes from this region.

💹 Finance - basically inflationary risks, which is bad on its own but has downstream effects
