A Black man named Keith Porter was shot and killed by an ICE officer on New Year’s Eve.

Marimar Martinez was shot five times by an ICE officer in Chicago who went on to brag about leaving seven holes in her body.

This is not new but it is expanding.
Your reminder that what happened to Renee Nicole Good is something that happens regularly in America. This is not new, but it is an expanded version of militarized people targeting Black people in particular.

From ICE detention to murder with impunity, we've been doing it. Now it's broadened.

In the mid-1960s jazz began to move into more expansive territory as artists like Herbie Hancock broadened their approach to harmony, rhythm & compositional forms. Stream our “Post-Bop” playlist featuring the sublime title track of the pianist’s 1965 album “Maiden Voyage”: bluenote.lnk.to/PostBop

every time I see an A-list actor in an ad for some slot machine phone game, I think about how Bill Murray's character in Lost in Translation doing advertisements is framed as basically the highest form of humiliation an actor could go through.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

I do not care that you are not “surprised.” Please. You have no idea how tiresome it is when you post that something horrible, fascist, authoritarian is “not surprising.” Nothing is “surprising” anymore. But a lot of it is horrible and frightening. Let’s deal with it together.

This rules for a lot of reasons, but especially because it dispels the myths that A.) old games were never political and B.) games like this are just stories, they aren't "about" anything. Should serve as a reminder to anyone writing about games why we should be close reading 'em.
OH MY FUCKING GOOOODDDDDDDDD

Seeing White people lash out at Black people today for various reasons because they're upset with this country and think Black people should be doing more.

They did, and yet, the majority of White people *chose this*. Stop expecting Black folks to fix something that White folks created. Grow up.

According to Half-Life writer Marc Laidlaw and Arkane co-founder Raphael Colantonio, the immensely talented Bulgarian art director Viktor Antonov died recently. 😭 He was only 52.

He worked with Valve and Arkane on HL 2 and Dishonored, but also on the animated movies Renaissance & The Prodigies.

Teaching unwhitewashed history is not DEI. Stocking a Black-owned brands THAT PEOPLE BUY is not DEI. Recruiting HBCU grads is not DEI. Addressing racial disparities is NOT DEI. Treating LGBTQIA people like PEOPLE is NOT DEI

Trump isn’t dismantling DEI

He is reconstructing a WHITER supremacy
DEI Is the New Black
The demonization of anyone who is not white, straight and male is a tradition as old as America.

If anybody ever comes out to you directly, especially before they've technically done it publicly, never take that shit for granted. Somebody is telling you that they care about you and trust you enough that they wanted to involve you in something so important.

maybe the single most damaging thing the internet ever did was expose rich assholes to what everyone else actually thought of them, because every last one of them lost their fucking minds and is determined to burn the world to the ground in order to stop us making fun of them
All of these fucking rich guys bitch and bitch and bitch, what else is American society supposed to give you? It’s given you everything! Is it that you don’t want everyone to think you’re embarrassing dorks? That’s not our problem
