the things that _actually_ improve people's lives — investing in education, science, infrastructure, healthcare, renewable energy, the arts, freedom of movement, etc — are all left-coded projects advanced by sensible people without angry rhetoric. the centrists keep getting in the way though!

I'm disgusted by supposed friends and allies still actively participating on the former Twitter. I get it, we all established a community there (fuck I had over 80K followers, it helped make my career what it is today). But what else does the owner have to do to get you stop supporting him?

I’m just going to say that AOC is the acting leader of the Democratic Party until someone proves otherwise. At least insofar as she is responding to the moment with leadership.

There's no longer any upside to Twitter over Bluesky. Twitter's engagement is terrible, it downranks external links, and you're subjected to straight nazi shit if you write even the most banal post. Why are we subjecting ourselves to this?

It's a cruel joke that the first email I got on my birthday was from the AARP with a membership offer. 😭

After letting Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's story cook for a bit, I revisited it this past weekend. I am now at the point that every story thread has clicked and it's a masterpiece. It's easily game of the year. Especially for story driven content. It's not close. Will be theory crafting it for awhile

Netflix is dropping the ball so hard tonight. This might be the worst stability ever for a live broadcast. They are definitely not ready for live content.
