Lines up with my experience. I got infinitely more interviews when I had zero video game experience like 6-7 years ago. Infinitely is literal. I've had zero video game interviews in like 18 months.

They should all be doing this. They should all be telling you what they are fighting for.

Shutting down the government sucks. But that means they should be happy to tell you why it happened and that they're fighting because the party in power is a death cult.

This is not a fight about tax credits.

This is a fight over your ability to go to a pharmacy and afford your insulin.

We have the chance to protect the health care of millions of Americans. We need to take it.

Chuck Schumer, in an hour from now: The president plans to flood the streets with military personnel to oppress innocent people, but what he should be flooding the streets with is tax credits for the middle class!

a Slack conversation between Ben, David, and Levi talking about which Final Fantasy games are the ones where friends were made along the way. Between the three of them they pretty much name every game. There is text added that says 5 more subscriptions before you get a whole issue of this plus politics

Watching a video about the Civil Rights Movement and the Freedom Summer and it noted how names of Black people trying to exercise their rights would be published in lists to institutionally punish them. Today’s methods of surveillance and political punishment have roots and not just in McCarthyism.
