I just found out about this it makes me so happy because Sennua is one of the most heart-rending performances in video game history.
I started this game before I got locked up and it resonated with me for obvious reasons. I just now 8 years later finished it. Breathtaking. #Hellblade #mentalhealth

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.
The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.
But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

It took me months, about 495 rides, recovering from a shattered right foot and hacking a folding scooter, but I finally own a Nintendo Switch 2 using points obtained from Citi Bike. Afterwards, it left me questioning the very nature of work. For @aftermath.site.

Fucking subbed.

Honestly, growing up & well into adulthood I rejected #Marx as an idealist whose conclusion begat his arguments. I believe that the national debt, income inequality, & our climate are existential concerns. But the farther we fall into our #latestagecapitalism death spiral the more sense he makes.

If we really are a #Christian nation like they (incorrectly) assert, we ought to act like it.
