No version of Christianity that is faithful, orthodox & true can fit neatly into a Democrat or Republican box. Anyone who's trying to do that is giving up the best gift that we have, which is this word from outside that challenges the human assumptions and political boxes we’ve made. @kaitlynschiess

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”
That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Take off their masks. End their immunities. Limit their jurisdiction. Restrain their tactics. All of this can be done through legislation without inhibiting humane immigration enforcement. If it’s done correctly, legislative reform can lead to greater accountability across the whole of government.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Whenever I battle SBC trainers in #PokemonLegendsZA my brain can't resist thinking it's the Southern Baptist Convention.

You guys, so many Romance girlies are reading "On Tyranny" that they've broken the Goodreads recommendations algorithm. 10/10; no notes.

another way to say this: fascism isn't about rules people follow, it's about categories people are in
if you're in the right category nothing you do is bad
if you you're in the wrong category nothing you do is good
it's not about what you do, it's about who you are
if you're in the right category nothing you do is bad
if you you're in the wrong category nothing you do is good
it's not about what you do, it's about who you are
Dam been writing a book about this and she just TikToked it in 90 seconds.

I used #DKArtist mode in #DonkeyKongBananza to make a sculpture of Donkey Kong similar to his amiibo pose (sans Pauline) on the #NintendiSwitch2.

I finally did it. I got Hestu's Gift on the #NintenfoSwitch2 Edition of #BreathOfTheWild. I wouldn't have done it without the Zelda Notes app, but it was fun to find them all (with help) and then fulfill each of their puzzles/activities.

Props to #Target for taking steps to make this right. Following the delay in delivery for my #NintendoSwitch2 pre-order, they just issued me a deal for a free $50 eShop card.
For reference, I pre-ordered the Mario Kart World console bundle from Target, and it took 6 days after release to deliver.

something that stands out about this is just how cheap it is for us to have world-leading scientific capacity
we spent ~6.75 trillion last year, and the combined budgets for NIH, NSF and NASA are barely more than 1% of that
what an incredible waste to lose it all for a drop in the bucket

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd.
It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

Thinking about #NintendoSwitch2 Edition games:
For Zelda BOTW and TOTK, Nintendo says that the Switch 2 Edition games will load much faster, but what if you have the cartridge version of the Switch 1 game?
To address this, will they allow you to "install" the game to console/SD card storage?

Now that #NintendoSwitch2 has introduced a #GameShare feature to cast a second screen to another Switch 1 or 2 console, they OWE US a port of the Wii U's #NintendoLand game.
I want to play those asymmetric multiplayer games on my Switch 2.
I also want a real Wind Waker HD port, but who's counting.

I updated my Switch to the new firmware, and immediately turned off the new virtual game card feature in my account settings.
There are too many restrictions on sharing for me to be able to use the lending feature, since most of my family group isn't local.
