I think it is important that Greg Bovino, personally, is prosecuted for what he has done and continues to do in service of all of this
Bovino shamelessly lies: "This looks like a situation where an individual wanted to do maximum damage and massacre law enforcement"

ICE just executed another person in the street in Minneapolis. They already had him subdued and beaten.
No need to seek out the video. It’s bad.
Watching closely to see if any of our leaders here do anything but express dismay. And that does not include siccing “our” police on protesters!

Leave it to America to invent an even worse type of cops. Abolish ICE and salt the earth where it stood.

Yep. It's the correct term. That it makes people uncomfortable is more reason to use accurate language.
Concentration Camp: a prison or other facility used for the internment of political prisoners or politically targeted demographics, such as members of national or ethnic minority groups, on the grounds of national security, or for exploitation or punishment.

I'm very much of the Sam Vimes school of thought towards law. There's nothing inherently noble about "the common people," but since they don't have money or power, the law should protect them from the rich & powerful. Because the law should be there to help balance things.

YouTube doesn't exist for bad-faith film and game reviews. It exists for things like the 1981 clip of the Micro Machines guy doing Ya Got Trouble from The Music Man really fast.

this is one of my favorite climactic moments in the series because it's such a perfect distillation of Granny Weatherwax as a character
she sees through the bullshit, for good and for ill, and she forces you to see through it too
that is her curse and that is her superpower

constant lies
ICE spokesperson Marcos Charles: "My officers stayed with the child. They cared for him. Took him to get something to eat from a drive-thru restaurant and spent hours ensuring he was taken care of. Again, my officers did that, not his father ... his family refused to open the door and take him back"

Not being pieces of shit who kidnap 5 year olds and traumatize them seems like a good place to first step.
Q: A school district alleges ICE agents detained a 5 year old after preschool. Are you proud of how you're conducting this immigration crackdown?
JD VANCE: The 5 year old was not arrested. His dad was an illegal alien. So the story is that ICE detained a 5 year old -- what are they supposed to do?

Okay, so Xbox, as its own unique brand, is pretty much officially dead now. Why, it's almost as if GamePass IS actually unsustainable like a few people(Emily included) said years ago and going all-in on a/i & massive layoffs was a terrible idea, too.

This. Whether making games, films, books, music, shows, or whatever other kind of art in potentia, you shouldn't try to "give people what they want." Do your idea, and hope you are giving people what they didn't know they wanted.
Cannot agree more with this. It's easy to lose what made a game, or any piece of art or media, special and resonant when you start leaning on what fans WANT.
99% of the time, fans don't know what they want, except for the thing they already have. That stifles creativity.

Even if gen a/i didn't have the massive ethical, moral, and environmental issues, even if it worked well and actually saved money, gen a/i in game development would still be self-defeating because it makes the price of hardware skyrocket, thus making gaming itself far more expensive.
