The only way to play any #Doom game is when you die in game to start completely over. From the beginning. Why? Because you’re playing as Doom Guy. You don’t die. You decimate demons. Dying makes no sense. So best to start over in the off chance you die. ;-)

#KrankBerlin on Appletv+ is the best show I’ve seen in years. I’m absolutely enamored by the show, the cast, the writing. Everything.

What don’t people get?

All I wanna do is rush home and lounge about and be lazy with my dogs. Cuddling with them is just the most calming, amazing thing.

Another word for "regulation" is...

"consumer protection"
"environmental protection"

"Regulation" means your milk is safe. "Regulation" means toys that harm your babies are removed from the shelves. "Regulation" means chemical companies can't dump waste in your river.
my kingdom for an elected official who will stand up and defend the fact that the government employs people to test wastewater and send old people money and keep an eye on the bears in the park and make sue the people that scammed you

I’m thinking of pausing my spending on some things and moving that over to support media in this age of King Trump.

My list so far (and I can’t afford every good publication):

The guardian
404media
Maybe wired

What others?

Scoop: The databases powering DOGE.gov are insecure, and people outside the government have already pushed their own updates to the site to prove it:

If democrats and the DNC are leveraging everything to win the house and the senate as soon as they can I say we kick them all out and put people in who will fight. Otherwise what’s the point of their employment? What’re they even doing???

This is completely illegal. The reason it is being permitted is that the press refuses to say it is illegal, only describing it as contested.

The average Fox News viewer has no idea that Musk is tearing down a system that allowed this country to rule the world for the past 75 years. And when their standard of living slips dramatically in the next five years they still won’t understand because their TV will blame it on some poor scapegoat.
