We banned a guy on the Steam forums for repeatedly saying there were “too many women” in our game

So he flipped his positive review to negative

Still totally worth it

Independent C-SPAN caller to Rep. Mark Alford: "You're taking credit for $50b that you just gave to the hospital industry. That's after you took away $150b. You don't take credit for just giving back a little bit of money after taking away so much. So quit lying. It just makes you look horrible."

How do I explain to offline people that my favorite Japanese mascot said "we can only be liberated from queer oppression if we are truly seen as human" and then started wielding fireworks like a rocket launcher on the side of a mountain without sounding like I've totally lost it?

Chiitan has a dream.
I hope that one day the term LGBT will become a thing of the past.
I will continue to spread my message until we live in a world where everyone can love freely and is free from persecution and discrimination.
Until then, let's all support each other🤍

It is pretty galling that the Supreme Court spent four years telling Biden "you can't do that without Congress" then allowed Trump to seize a once-unthinkable amount of power from Congress within nine months and concentrate law-making authority almost entirely in the executive branch.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

I am really interested in what remaining Trump-voting supporters I have left think about their tax dollars that they were apparently very concerned about being wasted, now going to heavily advertising for ICE recruitment during pro wrestling shows. That's a good use of tax money??

NN: Dems say you won't swear in Grijalva bc you don't want her vote on Epstein

JOHNSON: No. It's scheduling

NN: But there have been Rs sworn in during pro forma sessions

MJ: Only reason was bc they flew in their family

NN: So if she flies in her family you'd do it?

MJ: Again, it's a distraction

My gosh. After the US bombed multiple boats in the middle of the ocean, murdering people on grounds that they were allegedly "carrying drugs," the US Attorney General says "Just like we did with cartels, we're going to take the same approach, President Trump, with Antifa."

Ubisoft canceled an 'Assassin's Creed' game set after the Civil War

• Featured a Black Assassin who was formerly a slave

• Would fight the emerging Ku Klux Klan

• Leadership canceled it — concerned with US political climate & Yasuke backlash

I can’t believe I have to say this, but historically, masked men who kidnap families in the middle of the night are usually not the good guys.

Remember the shit Eddie got for missing his finish on Big Bill? This is thrice as egregious but nobody will say a thing about it.. (mostly because nobody is watching TNA anyways)

My legitimate reaction when I saw the long legged singlet

#AEWDynamite

A screenshot from the movie The Mummy Returns. Three men, with a hat or head dressing on, button up shirts and the man on the left is holding a gun while the man in the back is pointed at the man on the right who is holding a poorly photoshopped image of the wrestler PAC who is wearing long legged black singlet with the words THIS PAC IS CURSED overlayed

I was really hoping I’d get to see them wrestle each other at WrestleDream since I’ll be there and I haven’t seen a Takeshita match in person yet, but this is a good second option.
