A dirty truth about games: most of the time leadership is why a project fails or is cancelled, and even worse: those people go and start their own studios get investments because investors don't question the bro code, and the cycle continues.

Sometimes second chances aren't great

ron howard voiceover: the members of the group did not, in fact, interpret the meme as a threat against their local high school

www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

Larry Bushart Jr., 61, a former police officer, posted a meme of President Donald Trump in the Perry County community group page as members of the page were organizing a vigil to honor Kirk.

In response, Bushart posted a meme of Trump that featured a photo of the president with a quote he gave just one day after a 2024 mass shooting at Perry High School in Iowa

“‘We have to get over it.’ – Donald Trump, on the Perry High School mass shooting one day after,” the text on the meme read.

However, members of the group interpreted Bushart’s post as a threat against their local high school, which is also called Perry County High School.

Collectors! Store owners! Hoarders! Help us out! @gamehistoryorg.bsky.social is looking to source copies of this 1985 NES pack-in poster for fundraising reasons, and we need them asap. We already cleaned out eBay. Note that they need to be the ones that say copyright 1985, as pictured! Can pay!

No creativity or ingenuity in thinking of ways of how to fight Trump but infinitely amounts of creativity and ingenuity when it's time to brainstorm reasons why it's actually smart to do nothing.

Greg Sargent @gregsargent.bsky.social · 12h

A good example of Dems not adapting to MAGA war mindset is that they keep telling reporters they can't engage on Trump's military occupations because it's a "trap" to entice them into a losing debate about crime. That concedes too much up front and plays by old rules.

i am not sure there are any mainstream tv news celebrities who don't plainly qualify. wherever the line between collaborator and fascist lies, they've pretty much got to be past it.

honestly i didn't check your account and just assumed you were a trans person intentionally transmedposting, which is why i was brusque. it's understandable to be unfamiliar with the nuance here, seriously.

Corinne Green @ket.bsky.social · 11h

oh yeah it's totally fine, don't worry! as mentioned in the piece it's complicated because of the legal and medical systems, and as mentioned in the piece there absolutely are trans people you can find who claim that framework for various reasons. it's no big deal <3

For some reason it's easier for people to assume the guy slamming his dick in a car door is failing at entering the car, and not *wildly* succeeding at his goal of slamming his dick in a car door.

It's interesting how easy it is for people to look at someone *wildly* succeeding at a horrific goal, and continue acting as if they are failing at a very different goal which they have repeatedly and loudly declared they do not have.

london coroner's report on the suicide of 17yo leia sampson-grimbly last year following uk labour's formal ban on trans healthcare

tw: www.judiciary.uk/prevention-o...

CORONER’S CONCERNS

During the course of the inquest the evidence revealed matters giving rise to concern. In my opinion there is a risk that future deaths could occur unless action is taken. In the circumstances it is my statutory duty to report to you.

The MATTERS OF CONCERN are as follows. – Waiting lists are far too long for first appointment at a Gender Dysphoria clinic.
6 ACTION SHOULD BE TAKEN

In my opinion action should be taken to prevent future deaths and I believe you [AND/OR your organisation] have the power to take such action
