I agree that my video game posts should get far more engagement.

Snowden St.@snowden.st

someone fucking around in a hobby forum and spending thousands of hours on silly video games likely did more for adjusting the political fabric than anyone quoting or replying to those shiny losers

Very funny that Jones is mad about a vote drop that decreased Lula's margin because he doesn't understand that in most of the rest of the world the right wing party is blue and the left wing party is red.

Lot of fear of people lying to polls. We don't have much evidence for it & don't need it to explain error. People uncomfortable sharing their choice are more likely to be in the now ~98% of people who don't respond than to take ~20 min survey to lie. Non-response much bigger deal

The stereotypical McCain-Romney Republican writes for The Bulwark, has come around on universal healthcare and higher taxes, and really really really wants to throw Trump and all his cronies in jail from now to the heat death of the universe.

I am starting to suspect that everything is gender.

It’s hard to decide what part of this story on Marissa Mayer’s new startup is most loathsome, but this “women need a wife or, in other words, a digital servant” construction makes me want to flip over an actual table www.nytimes.com/2026/10/25/s...

I really don't think the business side thought anything besides "space is cold. remember what the wrath of khan guy said?" and then assigned engineers to lolsob over their plans.

Shitposting aside, it cannot be overstated how much red tape Republicans added to the process of getting Medicaid and SNAP. Millions of people who literally qualify for these programs are being kicked off them, despite qualifying, because of all the red tape Grassley voted to add to them.

Unfortunately Republicans hv been even harder @ work raising costs+ making life harder for Americans They hv already increased gas prices and imposed tariffs and cut Medicaid and SNAP Grassley helped each step along the way
