AOC on Noem's lies: "They are asking you to give up your belief in your own senses and instead hand over your belief to anything they say ... look at it for yourself and what you will see is an innocent man being executed in the street."

TikTok is now under US ownership and their new ToS reads like a guide to giving fascists everything they need to put you on a list.

They’re collecting information about immigration status, citizenship, sexual orientation, whether you’re trans or non binary and physical or mental disabilities.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

We were supposed to stay here until March 15th, paying $400 a month so we could save up and move into a new place. That was based on a verbal agreement with our landlord.

He’s now changed his mind, and according to him, we suddenly owe $3,900 and have until the 31st to pay it.

We are building and financing a corrupt detention/industrial complex. It’s human trafficking, and it has to end.

Brooklyn, 1980. A kind young man from Japan offers Mario to adapt his life's story into video games. The old man's only request is that his wife gets to be a Princess, as she should be.

just a reminder that we aren’t even seeing the worst of what is happening in Minneapolis from someone detailed at the Whipple Federal Building yesterday

Eyewitness account:
Good morning,
My name is Brandon Siguenza, and l am a US citizen from Minneapolis. Yesterday, while doing legal observation, ICE stopped their cars to harass my friend and me. They sprayed pepper spray into the vent of our vehicle. We held our hands in the air and told them we were not obstructing, that the car was in park and they were free to drive forward and away. There was no active immigration raid. They returned to their cars, and drove forward a bit, then decided to stop again. They surrounded us, smashed the windows of our car, opened the doors (they were unlocked), ripped my friend and I out of the car and arrested us on charges of obstruction.
I was put in an unmarked SUV, separated from my friend.
As I was put in the back seat an ICE agent tore the whistle off my neck and said "I'll be taking this, I might need it later." My phone was knocked out of my hand while being arrested. As we drove away I asked the driver and the passenger if they wouldn't mind buckling my seatbelt, as they were driving erratically. I was ignored. I asked them if I could have the handcuffs loosened, as I was losing circulation, and was told no. At one point the passenger realized his own driver's license was in the backseat next to mine, and tried to surreptitiously grab it without me seeing it.
We were taken to the Whipple federal building, where I saw dozens of brown people being processed in an unheated garage. I was frisked, told of my charges, and saw buses and vans being prepped. I later learned that these were being filled with detainees and driven to the airport for deportation. As we were led in, I noticed that the building was very busy. I got the impression that one of the 2 agents bringing me around was being trained. At multiple points throughout my stay, government agents were unable to open doors, not sure where they were meant to be going, and overall confused and overwhelmed. They couldn't figure out how to use the building phones, or complai…

I think, personally, we should inject every 🧊 agent with molten lead. The morally sound thing to do, really.

Started playing the outer wilds today, here's my thoughts on how I already know what this game will mean to me.

A notes app open, saying the following: You ever take a look at a game and think "huh, this looks pretty interesting, I should give it a shot!"? And you take a chance, spend your well earned money on it and give it a go. That game starts out very nice and chill, and as you continue, the lore keeps diving deeper. Your perspective on the game changes overtime but you retain a central and core message? In the end, it impacts you deeply. Makes you feel things you thought you'd never feel again. Comfort, fear, sadness, joy, and a sense of love? This game is like that. Its deeply profound and impactful, yet quirky and content as itself. A beautiful, spitting image of what an interactive art form can be. This is that. My favorite game. Outer Wilds is worth it. Worth every penny you poured into being able to play. Play this game, right now.

Hey! I'm gonna start a tradition for myself (feel free to join in) where at the end of every year I do a sort of lookover of all my progress and achievements of my art! To start the thread, here are my favorite pieces from start of the year, mid, to end!
