I’ve been having a pretty great time with Arc Raiders. It’s not perfect and kinda feels early access in terms of systems and progression, but the core is solid. The AI voices thing is just such an unnecessary self own, there’s almost no voices and the ones in there are bad canned lines
For Arc Raiders to ride the wave of human sociability all the way to the bank, while also being so contemptuous of the thing that makes us social animals in its own workflow demonstrates a lack of artistic integrity that I find impossible to ignore.

Yeah, I'm sorry, but you do not keep the government shut for more than a month and then NOT get a deal on the main item you have been messaging on without completely shifting the blame dynamic.
Major concession from Democrats here is enhanced ACA funds aren’t extended. Preserving them was Dems’ central demand in this fight. They secured a promise of a vote (which Thune has been offering for weeks), but that could still fail. Even if it passes, Johnson has made no promise of a House vote.
Tentative Senate deal to end shutdown, multiple sources tell me & @frankthorp.bsky.social:
—CR through Jan 30
—Approps minibus
—Fully funds SNAP
—Reverses Trump’s shutdown RIFs
—Promise of Senate vote on ACA subsidies by Dec second week (details/outcome uncertain)
—Led by King/Shaheen/Hassan

Predator Badlands was badass. Just a fun time at the movies. I guess I sorta understand the “it’s for kids” (I took my 7 year old) but the movie has more decapitations than any movie in history I’m guessing. It’s still pretty hardcore for what it is. So many creative fight scenes. Loved it

i think we can justifiably slice this thinner. trans issues are of very low salience to the voters democrats need to win on their right flank, and of very high salience to the voters democrats need to win on their left flank
Spanberger’s GOP foe spent 57% of her ad budget on anti-trans attacks. Spanberger focused on the economy. You see what won. trib.al/fkMmsR4
The simple truth told time and time again in the polls: The public doesn’t care about trans issues. Voters care deeply about the economy, inflation, & prices.

up and down the ballot virginia republicans ran on full-throated gutter transphobia and got their clocks cleaned last night
I think the American right is in fact correct about several things and it would be wise to concede that.

TRANS RIGHTS ARE A WINNING POLITICAL ISSUE
Every single centrist claiming we must all compromise our bodily autonomy for their personal comfort is a traitor to American democracy & rational human decency.
They have no place in a modern Democratic Party, toss them out. Total liberation for all.

Mamdani going so hard for trans right and winning is some juicy proof that every dem that abandoned us didn’t do it for politically advantageous reasons. They did it because they’re transphobes and they will lose for it

See I got a bunch of shit on here a few days ago for suggesting it was a firework and not a “bomb”.
Two men are accused of setting off a large commercial firework inside a Harvard Medical School laboratory and causing an explosion that damaged part of the building, federal prosecutors announced.
Two Massachusetts Men Charged in Explosion at Harvard Medical School
The predawn blast at a Harvard lab caused minor damage and led to the arrest of Logan David Patterson, 18, and Dominick Frank Cardoza, 20.
