Zohran picked 「卓蘭」("excellent orchid") for his first name and「夸梅」("brilliant plum") for his middle name.
The orchid and the plum are among "The Four Noble Ones" in traditional Chinese art, the former symbolizing an indifference to fame and fortune, the latter an indomitable, incorruptible spirit.

This is a little performative for most Protestants and it is Extremely Not for most Catholics.
Some clergy are begging to be allowed closer to the detention center to perform communion.
"You are preventing our religious freedom," someone in the crowd shouts.

I couldn't stop thinking about the Star Wars talk in the episode and having Forever Young play over Anakin attacking the Younglings. Eventually I want to do a full montage. So thanks @gameonysus.bsky.social, @robzacny.bsky.social, and @cado.bsky.social for not letting this leave my mind :D

Ireland just released a report showing the huge success of the unconditional basic income it provided to artists. Each $1 spent led to society gaining $1.39. Artists' earned incomes went up more than their side job incomes fell. And they were happier and used less welfare

Cargo bikes are super convenient. Often, way more convenient than driving. 🧵
1) I usually spend virtually no time looking for a parking spot and get to park closer to my destination than when driving.

“The best type of e-bike for replacing car trips is the cargo bike. Cargo bikes are rewiring cities to adapt their infrastructure for more human-centric transportation. And they’re also really fun to ride. Plus: bike bus!” Via @theverge.com

I re-read Letter from a Birmingham Jail the other day and I was struck by just how stunningly brilliant it was not just in writing but strategic thinking.
Like, not news, it's a modern classic for a reason.
It's just a remarkably clear vision of a strategy to achieve change.

the funny thing about the constant misappropriation of MLK is that the guy left a massive body of writing specifically aimed at explaining his views of those of the movement he represented to the broad public. it is extremely easy to know what the guy thought on a variety of subjects and yet

There are so many things that are annoying when it comes to broader audience perception of criticism but one of the biggest is that (for the most part) you only get accused of not knowing what you’re talking about when you have something negative to say about a game.

It's come to our attention that this was a very insensitive comparison to make so we'd like to take this time to apologize to Sheev Palpatine, his family, the Sith, the Galactic Empire and any Star Wars fans we may have offended.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Emperor Palpatine was a human being with a family, and it would be rude to celebrate his demise. Shame on the rebellion.

Every podcast has a “primary” host who knows how to do the intro and stuff and when they’re busy the other co-hosts have figure that shit out and it’s like watching 12 year olds without babysitters just barely manage to make mac and cheese.

Okay. Time for a thread about the Accelerationist propaganda mod for Hearts of Iron 4 and why it's bad that I don't see anyone in the field really talking about how video games and the networks around them are working to radicalize young men at an alarming rate. It urgently needs to be addressed /1

I've given up on photoshopping and/or locating images. Imagine a picture of Magneto, in standard dress. It is labelled MAGNETO. Then there is a picture of Magneto with a ripped up uniform covered in grime, probably from the 1990s. It is labelled MAGMESSO. There's a footnote about pronunciation.

People saying Trump is dying or possibly dead, but I for one would urge caution, because it is quite possible a second healtbar will appear as he enters his second phase and a gargantuan centipede will burst forth from his torso, so be careful of his new sweep attacks and toxic buildup from bites.
