When MST3K met PlayStation in '98. While digging through some demo discs, it was a pleasant surprise to see Mike and the gang pop up to introduce PlayStation Underground's Best of Year One magazine disc.
I saw a video of a man with his head blown off by Israel in Gaza today a few hours ago.
You probably won't hear about it on your news.
Just another Israeli war crime during a 'ceasefire'
Another murdered Palestinian
Israel is an evil racist terrorist state committing genocide & ethnic cleansing.
South African judge Navi Pillay - who headed a UN commission that last year found Israel was committing a genocide in Gaza - has just been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
The Nobel committee hailed her as "one of the most respected international jurists of our time."
I am angry tonight.
Because tonight ICE shot a New Yorker. They shot a New Yorker while his five year old child was in the car.
ICE makes this city less safe.
We want them out. Now.

the "adapt or die" people failed to consider the secret third option of forming a neoluddite community where I'm selling my latest video game on usb sticks in a little lemonade stand
Thousands of Cornell students have taken over the main plaza on campus to demand the Cornell 7 be held accountable for their crimes.
21% of undergraduate women are raped or sexual assaulted during their time on campus.
It’s easy to see why the AI companies wanted to hide this from the public. The statements are some of the most damning indictments of the ways LLMs were trained, how they work, and the immediate threat they pose to human labor. @jasonkoebler.bsky.social reports.

I feel that mostly due to the Macklemore event, a lot more celebrities will be vocal about their support of ending genocide. Some will be genuine but most will do it as it the trendy thing to do and they won't lose followers. So that great news. I don't care if they are not genuine, their money is.
I didn't like Lanterns that much. It felt like a superhero show for people that dont like super hero shows. There's like 3 episodes left, so I'm hoping it gets better. So far though...meh.
NEW: Macklemore says he is donating the entire $1 million in net earnings from Ed Sheeran’s tour to six organizations supporting Palestinians and is challenging Patriots owner Robert Kraft to match it.
Hey, we asked first! I wrote this in the LA Times in 2002.
"In truth, it is time for California to become a member of the European Union... California is far more politically and culturally similar to members of the EU than to many other parts of the U.S."

What 9/11 showed is that Osama bin Laden understood the US would tilt into madness after an attack. And we did everything possible to prove him right. We dishonored the dead, made our country crueler, and started wars that killed up to a million people. That should also be what we remember.
99% of the planet’s population knows exactly how to stop this.
1% of the planet’s population is trying to tell us there’s nothing we can do.
I call bullshit.
Postal workers are on the front line of the fight for democracy. They are telling their own bosses to stop attacking vote-by-mail. Will you join us sending a message to @ambermcreynolds.bsky.social & the USPS Governors, who have the power to stop this? usmailnotforsale.org/take-action?...
For years, New Yorkers have demanded access to City records about the lasting health impacts of the horrific September 11th attacks. For years, they have been denied and ignored.
That ends today.

I appreciate that Dolly Parton refused to participate in "dress respectability" and, by her own account, modeled her aesthetic after a town "tramp," who she thought was beautiful. She separated aesthetics from character and understood "classiness" to be about how you treat people, not how you dress.
Mark Ruffalo has the biggest cojones and the biggest heart in Hollywood. Him being called antisemitic is a distraction from just how powerful and critical his post was.
Hanging?
We need to call this what it is: LYNCHING. Ten Black Americans in less than two years.
Every one of these deaths deserves answers, transparency, and scrutiny. No one should look at these images and expect Black Americans to shrug this off, especially in light of our history.
No food, no power, no gas. And some are without access to potable water.
For over a week.
Why isn’t it national news?
Today is day 9.
The estimates are that power could be out for up to two weeks: placing a date of full restoration around the 25th.
Playing Lantern of the laughless saint on steam. My character jumped over a wall to get out of town, could not scale wall to get back up. Ran up a tower avoiding enemies and jumped to a cliff. Unable to jump off of cliff because my health was too low and died. Had to start new character. 10/10.
Libraries make us a harder target for authoritarianism. Equal access to info, ideas, and space that doesn’t require a purchase to belong.
Also: using the library means money stays in your community instead of streaming out to Amazon. 📚
What’s checked out on your card right now?
CBS and Bari Weiss may have created their own biggest competitor. Reports say journalists fired from 60 Minutes are planning to reunite with former exec. producer Bill Owens working bring on Scott Pelley, and other former correspondents/producers. This is how you do it.
NEW: Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear is demanding in a new letter that Mitch McConnell "directly and verbally address the people of Kentucky and provide proof of your capacity to serve, or resign."
GRAHAM: “We’ve done it — I almost cried. We’ve been pushing this for years… Trump loves blowing stuff up.”
WSJ releases a new doc showing dead Republican Senator Lindsey Graham laughing that he helped Bibi convince Trump to attack Iran and get us into another deadly costly war
