hard not to notice that as trump's polls crater and gop gets crushed in election after election, news orgs are not racing around hiring progressive commenters and boasting about how they're reaching out to real americans by following the will of the volk.

one of the best things about this whole nightmare has been watching a whole bunch of folks who have clearly never been seriously political in their lives standing up and going, no, absolutely the fuck not, we’re not letting this happen
ICE and MAGA really did bet the farm on all of Minneapolis’s white people going “oh yes, please take away our disgusting, evil non-white-foreigner neighbors, oh thank you so much.”
it’s beautiful that they’ve been proven incredibly wrong about that - may the rest of the country do the same.

I'm curious as to how much of Super Space Sheriff Gavan Infinity will take place between outer space and Earth. Either way, the trailers are hammering home the extent to which it's a spiritual successor to Gavan (and the older Metal Hero series) and Super Sentai. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dg3z...

Tonight is Slow Burn Saturday and it's time to set sail in SteamWorld Heist II. I'll need lots of Leeway as I investigate the source of the corrupted water.

Rolled the credits on Hades 2. Damn, that was great, to the point that I'm having trouble figuring out which title was better, between this and the first game. There's still plenty of post-game stuff, so I'll fool around with it for a bit longer.
I spent entirely too much time playing with different weapons in Hades 2, though that’s fine when there’s *so* much dialogue and is very enjoyable. Now that I have a reliable setup, I’ve had so many successful runs in a row that there’s a good chance I’ll have the story wrapped this weekend.

When I lecture to students about how the apparently thriving economy of the 1920s was really a house of cards just waiting to be knocked down, one of the points I stress is how much a small number of the very rich were essentially propping up consumer spending in unsustainable ways
The top 10% now account for nearly half of all consumer spending.

SteamWorld Heist II loves solo missions. We had two Rattler brothers versus one Sola. They were no match for this lone Steambot.

Every so often in SteamWorld Heist II, there's a solo mission. One member of Leeway's crew has to go it alone. Turns out the Rattler Brothers are no match for Sola. You go girl.

America has a housing shortage. Every single housing proposal you see that is not "build more housing" will have the primary effect of pushing up the prices of existing housing, and is therefore, in reality, a plan to enrich current homeowners. In conclusion, build more housing.
President Trump will issue a plan next week for letting Americans tap their 401(k)s for a down payment on a home, a senior White House official said Friday.

I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.
