A warm, softly lit, and cluttered living room with a maximalist, bohemian aesthetic. In the upper right foreground, an ornate, pink tiered-cake decoration hangs upside down like a chandelier, adorned with white frosting-like details and dangling red crystals. The background is filled with warm orange and pink draped fabrics. To the left, a vintage-style sign features the year "1896" and the words "Réouverture Cabaret." In the blurred lower background, there are various decorative items, including a carved pumpkin, a shelf of books, and colorful floral curtains. The image is taken at a tilted angle, enhancing the whimsical, dreamlike atmosphere.

Every person that voted to block should be investigated and their shit searched.

An image featuring a wide-angle photograph of the United States House of Representatives in session. The chamber is filled with members of Congress seated in semi-circular rows facing a central podium where a speaker stands. In the upper right corner, a "77 WABC" logo is visible.

Below the photograph, there is large, bold text on a dark background that reads: "HOUSE VOTES 357-65 TO BLOCK RELEASE OF CONGRESSIONAL SEXUAL MISCONDUCT". The numbers "357-65" and the words "SEXUAL MISCONDUCT" are highlighted in red.

It’s almost like you can’t have sexual predators voting on whether or not we oust sexual predators 🤷‍♀️

Weird.

In 2019, I created #WhatAGameDevLooksLike after I was stopped by security 3(!!) times while picking up my speaker badge. I’m a small Asian woman with pink hair, and I guess I didn’t visually meet their expectations of a speaker.

Ironically, I was at GDC to speak about inclusive studio cultures. 🫠

This is exactly what it sounds like: a plan to implement tapering and discontinuation of HRT for any trans person in prison, regardless of how long they've been on it or what surgeries they've had.

This is medical torture, and will kill people.

Nope. But on that note, I don’t tend to speak for other people that I don’t have the right to speak for, but that’s just me.

Nope. Didn’t say we were. Weird how people assume empathetic means laying down

it’s a really shitty time to be an empathetic person with insane levels of pattern recognition and an insatiable sense of justice.

be well, y’all ✌️

In part, yes. The other major part was still under Israeli direction

Consider yourself lucky then that the maga algorithm never crossed yours. They’ve been getting the propaganda for awhile

Side-by-side image of Will Ferrell and Chad Smith sitting on a talk show set, both wearing backward blue baseball caps and black leather jackets, with nearly identical serious expressions. The background shows a nighttime city skyline from The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon set. Overlaid text on the left image reads “2001 Iraq War propaganda,” and on the right image reads “2025 Iran War propaganda,” framing the two similar images as a comparison meme.

We need to be prepared that this psychopathic fuck will NOT do what literally every president has done before and abide by the two-term limitation. He will continue to declare war on the American people because that’s the only way he can stay out of prison.

No more heads buried in the sand.

A group of coworkers pose closely together at a work event called Owlcon, smiling and making peace signs. One person kneels in front holding up a drink, while others stand behind them in casual outfits. A person near the center holds a handwritten sign that reads “The Vanessas.” The setting appears to be an open indoor office or event space with name tags visible, giving the photo a celebratory, friendly team vibe.

In my 22 years working in games, I’ve never been this happy. Thank you. Thank you so much 🥹

Promotional graphic for The GameHers Awards featuring the text “2026 Nominee – Community Champions.” A woman with short light blue hair and round glasses smiles at the camera, wearing a plaid jacket over a black top, posed against a bright yellow background inside a rounded frame. The design has a purple gradient border. Below the photo is the link “bit.ly/tghnominate.” Sponsor logos along the bottom include Corsair for Business, Zenni, CapCut, Liquid I.V., and Trovatrip.
