okay here’s the one about planescape
Over the years, I have taken some commissions to write about various video games. One of those was to write about Planescape: Torment, and…

New article time!
This one's about Planescape: Torment. I was commissioned to cover it, so I have. I was... disappointed to find I didn't really like the game. I tried not to be too mean, but I really, really disliked this game's treatment off women.

I keep emphasizing this point because I am worried that some US citizens who are doing rapid response may have the false belief that it is illegal for ICE/Border Patrol to arrest them, and out of this incorrect belief respond in ways that make it *more likely* they get arrested or brutalized.
Flatly wrong. No, it is not true that ICE only has jurisdiction over immigration issues and can’t arrest citizens. Immigration officers have authority to criminally arrest anyone for any “offense against the United States” (interfering with a federal officer would count) and any felony they witness.
I'm hearing a lot of talk that they did not have legal authority to compel a U.S. citizen to exit her car, what's your take on that?

I can’t get over all the journalists and centrist pundits who sneered that “Twitter isn’t real life” when it was full of weird leftists but now insist it’s a vital window into the public mood when the entire site is Nazis, illegal porn, bots, and Belarusians calling themselves “Iowa MAGA Farm Guy”
thinking about how long leftists were blamed for making twitter inhospitable for MPs who are refusing point blank to leave now it's full of nazis and child porn

i'm not saying you shouldn't have urgeny
i'm saying have the urgency to learn how to be in community so that when we hit them, we strike as one
because burning out or flaming out just means isolated atomic individuals screaming at each other about urgency and very little actually gets done

I don't know who needs to hear this, but cops are not allowed to shoot people just because you didn't do what they said.
That is called murder when they do that.
Some cops are working hard to convince people otherwise.

I played the demo for Queen's Domain during my lunch break. It's absolutely gorgeous. If you are craving for a King's Field-like game, then this one should be at the top of your list.

It's strange that when people place their handpicked stooges based on how much they'll bend the knee, you end up getting inauthentic phonies. Never could have guessed that.
The rollout of Tony Dokoupil's rebooted "CBS Evening News" is not going over well inside the network. It's a "total disaster," as one insider put it. Or a "total shit show," as another told me.

The only way ice could possibly be allowed to continue to exist is if every single person there was tried and banned from law enforcement, and everyone currently there was fired, and their only job was making sure objects ship through customs quickly and safely

Any one of us could be shot or kidnapped because an ICE agent doesn’t like the look of us. Are you prepared to be murdered in cold blood while “news” sources repeat the claim you were “weaponizing your vehicle” trying to leave your driveway? They want you to accept that. They want to make it normal

Infighting isn’t activism. It’s a purely egoistic and self-enriching practice. Bringing people together is hard. Dividing them is lazy and self indulgent.
Beware people who always seem to be looking for the next person to mock or criticize while never lifting a finger to work.

Using imagery online of the shooting by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, we’ve created an animated sequence which highlights the approximate positioning of officers and vehicles at the scene. The red dot represents the agent who fired the shots. Yellow dots are other agents who arrived at the scene.

I'd say this is depressing but most of my Bellingcat investigations were about things that happened in the U.S.
