If my followers have been inspired by the fierce resistance the Twin Cities has put up to ICE, you should make it a point to take a trip here (April through October 😬), enjoy the wonderful things MN has to offer and support our small businesses. It continues to be a really tough time for them.

The headlines may have gotten distracted, but the violence, brutality, and lack of accountability have persisted within our community. Minnesota is still under occupation.
This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

Very much looking forward to Replaced after spending time with it.
Join @kylehilliard.com and @marcusstewart7.bsky.social for a look at Replaced, which takes tonal inspiration from games like Limbo and Inside, and combat inspiration from the Batman: Arkham games.

We're looking forward to its release in March. www.youtube.com/watch?v=niPU...

There’s a sentiment among some locals that eyes on Minnesota are waning. The situation has NOT changed here.

Local resistance is tired, but of course never giving up. Please stay plugged into the news of the Minneapolis ICE occupation and donate where able.

We need endurance in this moment.

A reference to a video posted on MinnMax in congress… weird stuff.
THANEDAR: What did your ICE agent mean when he said, 'you raise your voice, I erase your voice' in the video all of us have seen?

LYONS: I'm not aware of that video. I can't comment

Nirvanna The Band The Show The Movie – for anyone who has already seen it... how R-rated is it? I don't want to research it too much because I want to protect its surprises, but if excessive profanity is all that's making it an R, then I want to see it with my kiddo.

Reviewed Romeo is a Dead Man and only accidentally called it Romeo Must Die about 60% of the time.

Also, I liked it.
I was left wanting more from the love story, but I was eager to keep playing to make Romeo stronger, see where I was going next, and learn more about the colorful cast of characters.

Before the charity stream began, content creators from @minnmax.com and @giantbomb.bsky.social weren't sure what number to aim for — maybe $30,000 or $50,000.

Within 15 minutes, they raised $58,000 for local food pantry VEAP. Within an hour, $100,000.

Here it is: A piece I've been working on since September. I spoke with a ton of folks from across the many eras of Fallout – from Tim Cain and Todd Howard to Jonathan Nolan and Walton Goggins – to tell the definitive oral history of Fallout bsky.app/profile/game...
Fallout has gone from a small side project to a worldwide phenomenon. We spoke with many of the people behind the various eras of the franchise to tell the story of the series in their own words.

I’m going to buy both of those Resident Evil amiibo. But I’m not going to be happy about it.
I keep buying these things for some reason. It’s an illness. I haven’t scanned one in a game since Breath of the Wild’s launch month.

Based in Minnesota, @minnmax.com usually covers games, but lately its creators have had to dip their toes into talking about what ICE is doing to their neighbors as well. At this point, they don't really have a choice. @yozetty.bsky.social explains:
