Getting real worried a protestor will have to die on camera before everyone catches on.

I was quite surprised by the pacing. Really makes you lose track of time

As you fight ICE in your neighborhoods, always look for potentially positive outcomes to counterbalance your anger and despair. For me this continues to be meeting more neighbors, talking to more neighbors, and finding that others close by have also been fighting in ways I was unaware of.

What’s the word where you’re from that, when pronounced exactly as it looks, identifies a tourist immediately?

Hi! I was laid off from Firaxis this morning. I wrote leaders and civs for Civilization VII (NDA for now) and Deadpool and Storm for Marvel's Midnight Suns. I also wrote the award-nominated Hindsight.

I'm available for full time, remote work starting ASAP. DMs are open:

You were fine. I would get mountains of interactions like these.

The recruiting scene is such a wasteland now. It's mostly just chatGPT replies.

Ima say something
I know a game where you can mow down the Klan has been in my wishlist for a while.
And I'm sad that a project with promise has been canceled
That said, idk if Ubi is who'd id trust with that.

If you are willing to throw away entire groups of people to protect your insular strategy that will only protect you instead of protecting everyone then I don’t want your leaders and I sure as hell don’t want to be associated with you.

I hate to say it but the majority of the country is not going to die on the hill of trans rights. We can’t protect ANY groups if we can’t win a national election, so purity tests only serve to make specific groups feel triumphant. That’s not “erasing” them; it’s long-horizon strategy.

It’s been quite amazing to watch people call on CPD (of all entities) to fight on behalf of the oppressed. There is a reason why we don’t see police leading revolutions. They are a function of the state and will give deference to the feds, as required by law. youtube.com/shorts/WDHFe...

Can local police arrest ICE?

Would arresting a governor and/or mayor be the rubicon-crossing moment? Or we thinking that would also get normalized?

This is why, despite frustrations, I do think that Johnson (especially) and Pritzker are genuinely showing courage.

what makes #blacksky so unique and non-shitty is that it is 100% FUNDED BY COMMUNITY DONATIONS!

a $7/month is super helpful, but if you can afford to give more: THAT'S GREAT 👍

I hear and see your concerns. Over the weekend, a couple users hosted on Blacksky's PDS were banned from the Bluesky app and thus the Bluesky API servers. This was a weakness of our system I've been aware of and hoped we had more time to address before any kind of public incident. 1/11

Not to fall into "exceptionalism" tropes, but institutions running like they have been in the past was --like it or not-- an exceptional feature among other nations of the world.

Does knowing this makes kinda us more normal ameliorate things?

Not sure where people get the idea that government has to be competent in any shape or form for enough of society to continue functioning, but society can definitely continue.
