Remember this image every time someone tells you that protesters are "hurting their cause."
Those people are the red bars. In 40 years, we'll look back at them the same way.

Business rent is way too high on Mag (not Miracle) Mile so companies are just shuffling around. H&M moved two blocks down the road to save cash.
He's blaming "murder and crime" in one of the safest parts of the city because the real problem is "landlords." Almost like that's the whole gambit.

I remember back when I tried joining the official sponsored World of Darkness demo team. I played a game at the leader’s house.
He had a rule: “You play what’s in your pants.” Ironically, he said it was to prevent misogynist portrayals of women from men.
I think back on that regularly.

I just feel like if you say "system doesn't matter" and you're a game designer I don't know how I'm expected to ever take your games seriously.

A new report last week stated that the average age for a first time home owner is now 40. Life expectancy in the US in 2023 was 78.39 years.
A 50 year mortgage means no average person would own their homes ever. It turns homes into direct rentals from the bank even more than they already are.

I will not support the Republican bill that’s on the Senate floor because it fails to do anything of substance to fix America’s healthcare crisis.

CVS is best thought of as a kind of interactive museum exhibit where you can experience everything that has gone badly wrong with American capitalism.
You almost have to respect how CVS keeps frantically changing their systems like every other month and each time it gets progressively worse

Tesla's latest gambit: become a rental car company. As cars pile up in showrooms and storage lots, Elon is trying to rent his way out of a crisis. Good luck, bud. #teslatakedown #MuskMustFall electrek.co/2025/11/10/t...
Tesla can’t sell its cars anymore so it is renting them now

For those unaware, influencer Naomi Wu has basically been radio silent for two years because the Chinese police threatened her to silence her criticisms. There's a lot of evidence Elon was involved.
