So... for anyone curious: This is me.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Q: There's a report that FEMA is telling states to prepare to handle disasters on their own. Any reaction? OSSOFF: So the Trump administration is telling folks across the country to prepare to fend for themselves while taxpayer dollars are sent to back Don Jr & Eric's mining interest in Kazakhstan?

For the first few weeks of development, we have been going strong on creating a good framework for the gameplay of our game! This includes making a merging system, to have allies or enemies merge together and fight on your side. We have been going strong, so stay tuned for more to come!

Superpower Suicide

Real human artists getting accused of being AI may actually be the most dystopian element of the problem of AI generated art.

For nearly two years, I've been investigating a pattern of ominous legal letters sent to journalists by defamation counsel representing Bobby Kotick. That investigation is finally live. www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKwp...

Trump: "Please right your right hand. I pledge to the greatest president in the history of the United States. That loves us so much he can't even breath. That I will go out with my family, my friends, I'll do it any way - I don't care if I'm registered or not, I'm going to try to cheat like hell..."

I also want to add that every single time ICE has physically hurt me, they have grabbed me by my chest. Most of my femme friends have said the same. I will not be surprised if / when we find out about twisted sexual assaults conducted by ICE agents with these gloves.

Show this to any MAGA turds you still know.

IT IS NEVER A DRAG QUEEN. (but it *is* almost always a white male citizen)

Remember this when the most evil, incompetent POTUS ever finally shuffles off the mortal coil, and the world rejoices like the Zion dance party from the Matrix.

If it looks like an Amazon delivery and drives like an Amazon delivery, then it's an Amazon delivery, right? Not according to Amazon. Big companies like Amazon have built a vast network of subcontractors who deliver their packages while shielding them from accountability.

EVERYTHING this man does is to divert the focus from the EPSTEIN Files. E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G.

This is how you know we need a wealth tax

By tomorrow it will be out of the news cycle and forgotten. A pedophile, convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, money launderer is president of the United States….

Well, President Klansman doesn't like to acknowledge slavery so I guess that's not included. And Native-Americans suffered quite a bit. Lincoln and Kennedy were shot in the head. But, sure, nobody has endured more than him.

Can someone explain how Axios could publish this and not note that DOJ has lost 18 of these cases and not won a single one? 0-18 is smart brevity.

All of these statements: TRUE

This song is still an absolute banger. Thinking about this series, it makes me sad to contemplate how badly the MMO genre has regressed and failed to deliver on its promise from 20 years ago :(. www.youtube.com/watch?v=urNy...

Banger

Remember who we are working for.

I'm getting so fucking sick of these evil greedy corporations making insane profits and still laying people off. This literally needs to be made illegal and I'm not exaggerating in the slightest.

This would be hilarious if he wasn't basically running even to win.

The corruption is so bad they don't even care if it kills you.

Yes. It really is. Nature is amazing and science beautifully allows us to experience it fully.

Huge win for consumers.

If only.....

Last week for 80 Level, we published an exclusive interview with Cliff Bleszinski. Today, we've got a deep dive into sandbox game design with MMO pioneer Raph Koster. For those who don't know, Koster was lead designer on Ultima Online and creative director on SWG! ▶️ 80.lv/articles/int...

I try not to overdo this bit but ... my man is begging for it. Let's go.

This is election interference.

Trump's stupid argument is essentially this: "In 2020 when I was in charge of everything, our elections were tampered with, and then in 2024 when Biden was in charge of everything, our elections were free and fair. Now I'm in charge again and the midterms will be invalid, UNLESS we pass a new law."

And yet they just announced layoffs. Some friends of mine on this team got hit. This is so frustrating to watch. 😥

This guy says immigrants are a huge threat because he found out about 2 murders committed by immigrants. I point out that in 2025 American citizens killed 13000+ American citizens. He says that is ridiculous because we shouldn’t import criminals… Ignoring the facts.

Anthropic is accusing other companies of--get this--unfairly copying their work. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/06/t...

If you are a billionaire who can have an amazing wedding anywhere on the planet, choosing a place that negatively impacts millions is outrageously selfish.

"AI will replace coders." This piece of genius code pumped out by Fable 5 today. Thank god for that forward function declaration, eh?

IMHO, the Supreme Court is a *bigger* problem than Trump, and it should be the primary target for reform. Trump and Congress would both be very different under a law-abiding SCOTUS, which would have stopped government action clearly animated by racism and racially gerrymandered districts.

This Book Was So Prophetic. It Should Be The New Bible.

Universal programs are indeed the way to go — combined with taxes.
