Our investigation found 40+ cases in which federal immigration agents used chokeholds or other moves that can restrict someone’s breathing: https://propub.li/4rq51BV

We showed video clips from our reporting to Marc Brown, a law enforcement expert. This is what he said.

Why is it soooo hard to sell games I don’t play anymore or have never bothered to play 6 years later?? I had them all ready to go, got the quote and now I am apologizing to them as they go in the box 😂😂

I backed the 1st printing of this game and not only is the production GORGEOUS but it is a solid 2-player logic puzzle. The first edition already had lots of different play modes so I’m really curious to see what the Variance expansion adds!

From local govt to the US Senate, we must work to rein in Trump’s lawless and abusive ICE operations.

Glad to see County Executive Ball take action against their attempts to open massive detention centers in our communities.

In the wake of a violent immigration crackdown in Minneapolis, TikTok users reported they were unable to upload videos critical of ICE.

The controversy emerged days after TikTok’s U.S. operations were acquired by a consortium led by Oracle, which was co-founded by Trump loyalist Larry Ellison.
Social media as state media
Silicon Valley was once viewed as a tool for liberation. Now, from blocking apps to banning groups, it is helping the White House suppress dissent.

Watched the first episode of Season 10/The Final Season of Queer Eye... I am going to miss this show and everything is stands for. A show about celebrating people's humanity and embracing love of other humans.

Preview: The Night Hunter Game (Murder Mystery Party)
As part of a campaign with Come Round and University Games, I received a review copy of their Murder Mystery Party game - The Night Hunter in exchange for an honest review. This game is a great fit for fans of 'Mindhunter' or 'Hannibal' or gruesome true crime stories. After opening the first case file, I was immediately think about the Golden State Killer case from the 1970s and 1980s (which I know about from reading 'I'll be gone in the dark' back in 2020).

Need a new anime to watch after finishing ‘Frieren’ - suggestions please?
We have also watched and enjoyed:
Delicious in Dungeon
Dan Da Dan
Attack on Titan (mostly)
Trigun (new and old though I prefer new)

Just want good story, good characters and maybe only a few seasons (sorry One Piece fans)

Have now played 4 hours of 'Silent Hill f' and pretty sure the 'f' stands for "OMG WTFFFFFFFFFFFF" which I yelled many times while being attacked by the horrors.
January 11, 2026 at 10:08 PM
I thought I could play 'Silent Hill f' tonight but...NOPE. Once the sun goes down, it is just too intense. For an extra bonus, Tim randomly yelling at the Packers/Bears game made me jump in my seat so...maybe tomorrow afternoon I will go back in. Steam claimed I have played for an hour...

I attended my first UnPub Festival last year and it was a total blast! I played so many games in so many stages of creation, it really made me appreciate how much work goes into designing a board game. Playtesting is a very important part of the process and UnPub lets designers get their creation out into the world and have people they have never met play their game and give them honest feedback.
