Pretty wild that the academy in S/V gives the player about a week's worth of whatever they do and then tosses them out into the literal wilderness to find their 'treasure'.

People I'm legit asking nicely to start adding alt-text or add it when sharing images. My feed is FULL of pictures with no alt-text and I'm going to start muting people again at this point.

Gods, I REALLY want to enjoy Pokemon Scarlet. There is a lot of good stuff in here, and having the game run properly on the Switch 2 is getting me to play again, but...

WHY ARE ALL THE "FRIENDS" ACTUALLY ASSHOLES FORCING YOU INTO SHITTY THINGS?!

Most media are glossing over Israel soon releasing 1,700 Palestinians it abducted and held without charge--in other words, hostages they kidnapped. And they're not releasing all of them.

About a month ago, the Trump administration got rid of the de minimis exemption, whereby packages valued under $800 could slide in without import duties. Now there's a backlog as the government can't process all of this paperwork, leading to UPS just destroying packages

Business Insider headline reads: UPS is telling customers that their packages coming to the US are marked for destruction.

We’ve reported extensively on how the FDA allowed foreign drugmakers to send generic medications to the U.S. from factories with filthy labs and contaminated equipment.

This month, we’re digging deeper and could use your help. THREAD/

It's almost as if the TikTok ban was solely to put it in the hands of U.S. nazis to brainwash the next era of Hitler Youth.

Micah @rincewind.run · 1d

boy the tiktok ban has really turned out to be one of the most singularly stupid things ever passed, huh? as if these people needed more help controlling the entire information environment

what a shitshow

Scott Horton @robertscotthorton.bsky.social · 2d

Trump said he deserved a cut for brokering the TikTok deal, and at once there was agreement that his son Baron would have a top executive slot... though he hasn't asked for it, and has no apparent qualifications to hold it. This is how Trump 2.0 works. www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025...

People saw the news about the CDC and were like, "OMG public health has been destroyed!" Have you been sleepwalking for the last four years? The US does not have a functioning public health system, because it was sacrificed for capital. We're a hotbed of COVID, measles, and a host of other diseases.

Friendly reminder that it's a-ok to [REDACTED] any ICE agents you see, saves a lot of trouble down the lien for innocents.

ICE left David, a 17-year-old boy, stranded on the side of Interstate 20 after pulling over his immigrant father, Hector, in Mississippi.

David began running in the scorching sun after the car and watched as it disappeared from sight—soon headed to a Louisiana ICE prison.

Here's their story.

I still feel like Pokemon Arceus is the best Pokemon game of my life. What games in the series can you play that allows you to, when failing to catch a pokemon, chuck A FREAKING PINECONE AT AT THEIR FACE?!
Honestly the entire game is a dream 'mon game for me. Beat it once, trying for a full dex now

For confirmation. lol Wall-E is our adventure bag, and the clutch is mine! Both last year's birthday gifts.

Picture of a Wall-E -Little garbage cube creator robot from Pixar's "Wall-E" film, mostly yellow with grabby gripper hands and treads for wheels, goggle binocular like eyes and sun visors that work akin to eyebrows-. Wall-E is holding onto the boot plant from the movie. His wheels are sidepockets, protruding directly from the side of the backpack.

Picture of a clutch purse, zipper style, with a young Carl and Ellie floating into the sky on their favorite seats attached to balloons, holding hands and smiling.

Well the line each month was already long since we started going during Biden's term, early last year, and it continues to get longer and longer each month. Fucking embarrassing living in this shithole country.

We have a local program -I think it is a Midwest program- called "Ruby's Pantry. We go each month for helping remove some cost of groceries -$25 per share, up to three, or pay what you can for one share-. Almost always get potatoes, freezer goods, canned good, cereals, ready to make soups, etc. >

WATCH: ProPublica obtained records from the Department of Agriculture that detail the 94 million pounds of food, down to the number of eggs, that never reached food banks because of the Trump administration’s cuts to The Emergency Food Assistance Program.

Now rewatching Wall-E (2008). Via the Criterion Collection release. By director Andrew Stanton.

Maybe Iger should see some of the films by the studios he manages and actually learn something, you know? It's never happening, but Wall-E is the complete antithesis to the corporation, Disney.

Wall-E 4K Criterion Collection release showing Wall-E, the robotic main character of the film, amongst a bunch of trash on a polluted Earth in the distant but not too far off future.

IT DOES NOT MATTER IF YOUR MEDICAL EMERGENCY IS DUE TO DRUG ADDICTION. IT'S A MEDICAL EMERGENCY YOU FUCKING GHOULS.

This is part and parcel of what's keeping us from having universal health care: they really believe that some ppl deserve medical care and some don't.

People like Trump have been in seats of power in the States since it's inception, it only seems radical like this now because it was a slow creep to fascism from fascism lite.
