this is what the Nelly Furtado song is about

Trump is adamant this is his highest priority and the only thing he cares about passing, I don't understand the strategic choice in tacking on some anti-trans stuff here. Why would you want to tie anything to your Hail Mary?

I know between Unreal Engine and Fortnite they have no reason to devote any money to it, but I can't believe Unreal Tournament completely died and nothing has really taken its place. I need team death match, capture the flag, bombing run, etc. without a hero shooter package or military flavor.

A writer friend of mine recently had to cancel his slot at a YA lit con because it's in a state he can't safely travel to. I'm upset that I can't safely travel to Texas right now but absent a broader BDS-style campaign I'm not gonna fault anyone for being in Austin, a very LGBTQ-friendly city.

College Republicans were all Nazis when I was in college too, now they’re in office.

The map design is very good, each sub area would be a top tier map on its own in a more traditional Halo type game and they are interconnected in creative ways. It would be nice if there was a little less ganking but even Arc Raiders was like that for a while.

Yup the artist said that they resolved it with her

Ken Paxton and his friends are terrified of trans masc children presenting androgynously because they want to fuck little girls

Ken Paxton thinks it's his God-given right to see your childrens' breasts

lol DEI is uh trans people kind of

The first episode of Gilmore Girls ends with Rory ordering chili cheese fries and coffee and that seems like a recipe for a massive post-credits shit.

I touched my eyes once after mincing ghost peppers and it burns so bad you can almost taste it

It’s a textbook white nationalist talking point of course, but I love the idea that it makes sense to put this pan-European ethnostate on an entirely different continent.

Who could have suspected the Irish might have political opinions

Of course you can avoid the conversation altogether by not being bigoted and teaching your children bigotry

The difficult conversation they want to avoid is explaining to your kids why this totally normal thing is actually evil, and the bad guys are right for hating the protagonist for it

If there were two strong left wing anti-MAGA candidates and one of them were named Brandon I think that could tip the scales in their favor

The Last Drive-In is ending which means I don’t have to hear otherwise progressive people explain why it’s ok to write for Taki’s Magazine as long as you also like to talk about scary movies in a bolo tie.

The iron cross is a big giveaway since a lot of people just associate it with a nondescript biker dude roughness and have never considered the huge crossover between the two.

lol I parked my car in Potrero when I lived in the Mission, before I had off-street parking

I moved away about 5 years back and had a private garage when I did own a car there so I’m not sure. When I moved to Oakland it took a full year for my residential parking permit to come through - at which point it had expired.

San Francisco has no free parking and the most convoluted parking restrictions in the world and I think parking in every city should be equally hellish. Something you’d only do if you had a really good reason to.

Same type of place I’m sure Hegseth went for his holy war chest piece

At some point the press decided we need to treat everyone who successfully founded a tech company in the internet era like a multidisciplinary genius.

People who don’t have tattoos don’t realize that you can deduce in seconds if a tattoo place is the kind that would give someone a Nazi tattoo, you can usually tell before you even open the door.

He bought a PhD to market his book and insists (or his fans insist) any criticism of him must be based on a semantic or contextual misunderstanding.

An anti-Catholic schism on the right seems like just what we need right now

Dubai is Vegas for fans of Joe Rogan

Which member of Trump’s cabinet is most likely to Bud Dwyer themselves? My money is on Pete Hegseth
