Incredible view tonight in Minneapolis.
A game that people are still playing only because of user mods, and the “update” consisted mostly of menu change that broke all the mods and crashes the game when you open it. Bethesda strikes again!

This is genuinely funny coming from a guy whose entire life is an endless stream of bitching and moaning while he leads the party of divorced dads who are mad their families hate them

I am… so glad we decided to travel by train for Thanksgiving instead of plane. The 24 hour ride will probably end up being faster then getting rebooked and stranded six times or whatever

Blacklisting Jewish Hollywood to prove you’re not antisemitic
Under new head of Paramount David Ellison, the studio has drawn up a list of actors who opposed the Gaza genocide and will not allow them to appear in its films and TV shows.
Does this sound familiar?
Also, "Ellison is reportedly aiming to take over Warner Bros. next."

Paramount Has Blacklist for Stars Deemed “Overtly Antisemitic” — World of Reel
It sure looks like the likes of Javier Bardem, Joaquin Phoenix, Emma Stone, and Mark Ruffalo won’t be making movies for Paramount in the foreseeable future.

hey is this a good strategy for ensuring the military take your side in the coup? just wondering
NEW: The US Army website for its bases in Bavaria, Germany told its soldiers and employees that it might need to obtain free food from the German government during the US government shutdown.
The Army later altered publication to remove a list of food banks, but we have the original text here:

Lindsey Boylan was the first whistleblower to come forward with sexual misconduct allegations against Andrew Cuomo.
Her accusations & those of 12 others were corroborated by the NY AG (and later by DOJ.) Cuomo resigned.
Now he has lost again, and this picture is as unabashed a joy as you'll see.

Soren Stevenson has won the city council race in the 8th ward of Minneapolis on a police accountability platform that is staunchly critical of incumbent Mayor Jacob Frey. That’s a seat vacated by a Frey ally who typically sided with the establishment wing of the council.

You don’t need the passive voice here tbh, you can just say what happened—the MPD shot him in the face while he was peacefully protesting.
He lost by *38* votes in the last election, really glad to see him win it tonight!

This is technically not a travel, because he takes about 2.5 steps after the gather and they let you do that. It SHOULD be a carry before the gather, but the NBA lets players cheat the rule by palming the ball as long as their hand isn’t underneath it. So it’s a legal play. But it’s also hideous.
