Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

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.

White. Hot. Rage.

Transphobia is a cancer of the heart and mind.

It is a useless fear, based on ignorance and cruelty.

Trans people are not responsible for a single one of the problems we face.

Do the world a favor and grow the fuck up.

A whole system of government built on the cowardice of its elected officials must have sounded good on paper to somebody.

Let me tell y'all about guys like Newsom, because we learned the hard way in Dallas.

Eric Johnson was a respected Democratic state rep when he was elected mayor in 2019. This made sense, as Dallas is deep blue. Johnson's tenure began normally.

But then he started hanging out with Republicans. 🧵

If you support Gavin Newsom as a future presidential candidate, I would respectfully ask you to spend just 15 minutes today doing some research. Randomly pick issues you think a Democrat should have the right answer for and look up what Newsom has said. I guarantee you that your support won't last.

Live your life in a way that will not inspire your kids to reveal to God and everyone how much of a garbage piece of shit you are.

Looking forward to another crop of estranged parents crying about how their kids dont speak to them in a couple years or so.

From a good friend in Minneapolis: "Target is allowing ICE to stage in their parking lots, use their restrooms, and abduct people from inside their stores - so if you weren’t boycotting already, now is the time." They were staging in Chicago as well.

Like, I get that Grok creating nudes from someone's pictures of their kids is absolutely repulsive but there were steps to get there and you were cool with every single one. So think about that for a while, sugar buns. Quietly.

Kimimi is an amazing follow if you like, and are interested in videogames.
Chinese and Taiwanese RPGs have been experimenting in various ways with reaction-based additions to turn-based battles for ~decades~ at this point.

And it's OK if you don't know that! But ~maybe~ we could just assume that the genre doesn't begin and end with games English speakers have heard of :)

Good old Symphony of the Night, a Christmas tradition.

Something has always bugged me though:

Anyone know the story on the life gauge? It looks like they wanted to do a clock face or something, but then decided to just slap a plain text number on it and call it a day. It doesn't really fit.

THE LAST UNICORN (1982) remains one of the most perfect films ever made.

There is no other animated film like it...before or since.

A mature and subversive fairy tale, melancholy and beautiful...a film about life, death, hope and regret.

Sad and beautiful.

You all are sleeping on one of the best turn-based tactical RPGs of 2025 and one of the best Cyberpunk games in recent memory. It's also getting an insane amount of post launch support and free content updates.

This is one of my top games of 2025, and its cheap too.
Our Steam Winter Sale discount (deepest since full launch) is live now: store.steampowered.com/app/1021210/...

If you know fans of XCOM, Shadowrun, Invisible, Inc, or any in-depth tactics games, repost🔁 & help an indie out!

We've become the highest-rated tactical RPG released on Steam this year. 🙌
