Our upcoming game HORSES was preemptively banned from Steam, with no path to appeal. The game will still launch next week on December 2nd and will be available on EGS, GOG, Humble, and Itch for $4.99. Here is a detailed FAQ covering what happened: horses.wtf/BannedFromSt...

Got one of the Snake Eater movies on in the background. Dogshit, and almost no action, there are a couple bozo gags like this Zucker-Abrams style segment of crawling through a vent

Today I passed a billboard w/ an ai-ass nativity scene beneath a giant cosmic Jesus and big text asking "Do You Love The Man As Much As The Baby?" and I choked on the coke zero I was drinking while driving and I stifled a cough and the bubbles foamed up through my nasal passages. I felt so present.

People were gaining a language, sense of history and set of conceptual tools that delegitimised both white supremacy *and the wider systems of capitalism and colonialism-imperialism* that it's bound up with.

The 2020 racial reckoning threatened the legitimacy of *the entire social order*.
"My mentor always tells me, 'Kim, dogs don’t bark at parked cars." They’re coming after critical race theory, 1619, intersectionality because these ideas mobilized people. They gave them the language to actually articulate what they were seeing with their own eyes," says Kimberlé Crenshaw.

I got so stoned at a Mets game once I compared the Jumbotron to the top screen of a Nintendo DS bc it had “a bunch of useful contextual information” and the field to the bottom screen bc “it’s where the game is actually played”

Elon: so at a party and you want to be very popular, go uhhhh, so that is to say, your web browser, and so you type into Bing “naughty jokes for happy men”, and then ahaha you can, really quite epic, read results of what that is displayed

Rogan: that’s what’s so amazing about jokes is, you say them

I’m usually giving counsel of despair so let me offer a hopeful note now: all this is the desperate thrashing of a dying generation, horrified to see up close the consequences of raising their children to believe violence and racism are wrong, and that people should treat each other decently.
This one really is useful because you won’t see a more clear demonstration of one of the most damaging political phenomena of the era: the reactionary professional mind rejecting unacceptable reality, only able to process and comprehend it via something close to conspiracy theory.
Former Obama speechwriter Sarah Hurwitz says Jewish students shouldn’t have smartphones until they finish high school — so they don’t see the “carnage” Israel and the U.S. have carried out in Gaza.

I've mentionedd before that once every human on the planet had a high-quality camera on them at all times we stopped seeing blurry pictures of Bigfoot and UFOs and started seeing lots and lots of police brutality

Well, what if it isn’t the public who have gone apeshit? What if it isn’t tens of millions of people all over the world, and it’s instead these tiny elite cliques of professionals who all know each other personally, refusing to accept the reality of the world they made? Doesn’t that seem more likely

Why are these uppity students demanding we move the statue of the slaver, why are people willing to vote against brutal austerity, why are the transgenders *at all*, on and on, and the only explanation is: Demons have infected the public via their mobile phones.

Why are all these rich and important men being accused of committing sexual crimes? It can’t be because rich, important men have always exploited their impunity to force themselves on employees, and social media makes it possible for victims to be heard. It must be Woke Indoctrination, or whatever.

Why is there all this mobile phone and bodycam footage of policemen murdering citizens all of a sudden? It can’t be that video is now ubiquitous and the cops were always violent and racist as a matter of course, it must be that malignant troublemakers are trying to start a race revolution.

Nota bene how “the wall of carnage” does not require the lady to update her assumptions, which are obviously true: if they weren’t, why would all the important people she knows believe the same thing? Insane, unacceptable. So it must be that the kids who are wrong.

I once knew a Federal bank examiner, and one time someone asked him why we had to KEEP inspecting banks over and over. He basically said every new batch of business school grads invents bank fraud from first principles.

The underlying cause of every bubble - debt masquerading as financial innovation - depends on not just short financial memory & speculative neophytism, but reinventing jargon of finance, like how each generation of kids has new ways to say same things.
