I don’t know how people could say that programming and art are completely different disciplines when both workflows involve going ‘This will never work, I’m a failure’, changing one thing, then thinking you might be the smartest person alive

Here's Lula celebrating tonight with Erika Hilton, a transgender politician who led the drive to end the six-day work week in Brazil. Erika showed workers solidarity, they showed her solidarity back. Solidarity is how fascism loses.

“Democrats have to join Republicans in saying awful things about trans people to win in red and purple states” Citation?

Anti-trans Democrats are spreading poison when we can least afford it, during elections in this ongoing fascist takeover. As a strategy, it’s a recipe for failure. As a moral stand, it’s reprehensible. PS I’m the father of young trans woman and I’ll never forgive anyone who makes her life harder.

There's a lot of ways you can imagine why a Dem would do that shit and frankly all of them are locked in that January 2025 chickenshit mindset, absolutely no vision for where the country is at. "Leave my gay ass friends alone" is such a powerful message and all of them are scared of it.

@gabrielzucman.bsky.social: So let met get that straight: paying a wealth tax is impossible (“billionaires have no liquidity”, “it would be taxing unrealized gains”, “their wealth is virtual”) but one man paying half a billion to influence elections is possible. Did I understand well?

One of the most insightful comments about game development came from a former boss. He said “Making a game is like starting a band. You can’t throw money at a new studio with random AAA veterans and expect it to crank out a hit.” 🧵

One time in college I had used the restroom and a woman came out of a stall, we made eye contact, I glanced back at the urinals and shrugged. We washed our hands. Nobody died.

I have straight up never met a trans woman whose approach to bathrooms was "I will only feel like a real woman if I can piss in the women's bathroom." I've met a lot whose approach is "I avoid public bathrooms because using any of them is dangerous to me, I would like to feel safer."

I have been meaning to write about this for a month or so now but it breaks my heart. AI has infected every hobby. Everything is noise. It's hurting existing communities and trudging through the slop is exhausting.

Ramaswamy has produced an attack ad weaponizing the rape of his opponent, Amy Acton, when she was 12 years old. It features Acton’s mother, who abandoned Acton after she was raped by her step-father, fleeing the state with her husband. Here is the corporate money helping fund that ad.

Going to give my own takeaway on the demise of Bioware, which still makes me very sad. The TLDR: Bioware was not killed suddenly by a private equity acquisition. It was slowly strangled by idiots who didn't understand what made Bioware great - some at EA but also some inside of Bioware leadership

You will notice how "purity tests" only go one way. You want support for Palestinians? Purity test. You want support for Israel? Just a normal policy without which I simply can not support her. You owe anyone blue your vote, I am allowed to choose.

I had a friendship end in high school because my friend believed he had seen the hollow moon (alien military base) through remote viewing.

Chuck Schumer — one of the most powerful Democrats in the country — has not issued statements to the press or through his social media channels about the administration’s attack on Ilhan Omar, which critics have described as a five alarm fire for the state of democracy in the U.S.

If you would try to win by abandoning trans people (or any targeted group) you can save this “we need to win” talk; there is no “we.” I am about solidarity, and you have chosen anti-solidarity. You are not any “we” I recognize. You are the enemy I’m trying to defeat. Beating you is how my “we” wins.
