Product and brand guy for games. Child of the console wars. Way too many brain cells dedicated to gaming. Bad ideas are all my own.
My track record that I've yet to see a single person predicting that AI will inevitably become ubiquitous who didn't have life changing amounts of money riding on the rest of us behaving as if that were true remains unbroken.

Every time this utter moron opens her mouth in public my Columbia degree gets a little less valuable.
The new editor of CBS News thinks that Alan Dershowitz and Dana Loesch debating the 2nd Amendment is “news.”

So, pour one out tonight for the actual journalists at CBS who have to listen to this drivel in the am news meeting

(She also says Dersh is “charismatic,” but that’s the lesser horror)

And I'd like a pony and for Secretary Real World to go fuck himself. Don't think either of us is getting what we want though.

I don't doubt gender had a role in this, but it's also a matter of who normalized who. Every Republican and media outlet has been tarring Mamdani as a crazy socialist, meeting with Trump normalized him, Whitmer meet him as a respected big state Gov, her presence normalized Trump.
it’s also totally unfair that whitmer got flamed for this, which is mostly about gender and only tangentially about optics management. but i don’t blame mamdani for playing his advantage, that’s his job.
mamdani understood what his assignment was, which was to protect funding to the city of new york.

So, from LinkedIn I see Crystal Dynamics has had yet another round of layoffs, and at this point I, sadly, think it's inevitable that the next Tomb Raider will flop, potentially to a studio-killing degree.

There's a very real possibility that RFK Jr ends up a mass murderer by the time this is done.

The craziest thing is at most he'll be the second biggest mass murderer in the administration, because Musk killing USAID will have a bodycount an order of magnitude higher.
CDC has overhauled its website to assert that “the claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim”

@repkimschrier.bsky.social WTF are you doing on this list? This isn't why we sent you to Congress.
These 20 House Democrats just joined Republicans in voting to fully repeal DC's police reform laws.

Wiping off the books critical laws on use of force, transparency, and preventing violent cops from getting rehired.

They think that they should have more say over DC police than the people of DC.

I'm not sure if I've ever had a year before where I haven't played a single GOTY nominee.

What's weirder is, there's only one of these I really WANT to play (Claire Obscure), despite this year having 2-3 games I desperately want to play and perhaps my favorite release of the last 5 years.
The Game Awards GOTY nominees leaked:

-Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
-Death Stranding 2: On the Beach
-Donkey Kong Bananza
-Hades II
-Hollow Knight: Silksong
-Kingdom Come: Deliverance II

One of the things I hate most about the theft-ridden LLM garbage is how much it has intentionally blurred the line between the bullshit machines and legitimately useful automation and ML techniques that aren't based on large scale IP theft.
"Surely there's a middle ground here?" The CEO of Helldivers 2 studio Arrowhead says people "jump to extreme takes" when debating generative AI, and that there needs to be more nuance in the discussion.

I think this is one of the most important things that establishment Dems need to wrap their heads around. The next D president will need to jail a LOT of Republicans because there's a LOT of Republican crime and they're going to have to have a thick skin when Rs cry political protection
Trump will not just be four years of bad management. The culture of these organizations will be fucked for a long time. The pressure to retaliate and clean house will be strong, and no-one wants to work in a war zone.

States need to start to start charging these gestapo fuckers with crimes. Maybe their fed status gets them off, but the effort needs to be made if for no other reason than to force them into court to make the argument.
"Call the cops! He took my wallet and my keys!”

SALEM, OR — Trump’s lawless ICE goons threaten U.S. citizen with AR-15, steal her car keys & wallet, leave her stranded in the middle of the road. (They then gave them to the police as though they found them🤔)

There's a Gianmarco Soresi bit about how you can't talk about how pedophilia is not ephebophilia without sounding like a pedo, and it's funny. But I also think we should investigate the people, like Kelly, making that argument on spec as potential pedophiles, b/c you're gonna get some hits.
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

I'm not kidding, every D politician needs to start treating and speaking about the NYT as a illegitimate news org dedicated to Trump. Any reporting done by them or questions from them should get a response that accuses them of making things up to help Trump, because that's their documented history.

Seriously, the Epstein shit should not only take down Trump but the NYT as well.
Fall 2017: Then-NYT reporter literally warning Epstein that someone is "digging around again."

The word this lady is looking for is 'money', not math. People will put up with many things of you have money.

Trust me, I'm better at math than like 99% of the planet (with the degrees to prove it) and no one gives a shit.

Here's my thing: I'm absolutely cool with the primary-ing some (many? all?) of the D senate caucus. But, what I'm not cool with is spending the time between now and actually running said primary opponent concentrating fire on the current Senate Dems when we could be hitting Republicans
This is so offensive I don’t even know where to start.

“Vote blue no matter who and also shut the fuck up when those people betray you.”

Nope.

We will primary every senator who doesn’t call for Schumer to step down in the next 24 hours.

You work for us.
The sooner we get past internal recriminations and back to fighting united, the better off we all are — the likelier our victory next November.

Ok, I officially have no idea what the affirmative care for keeping Patullo is, just absolutely refusing to call any of the things that this offense is good at.
November 11, 2025 at 2:09 AM
The Democratic party should ensure there are consequences for the 8 senators who just shivved us. Whether that's the local parties pressuring the safe seats to resign and be replaced, or Schumer banning them from caucus meetings/organizations, but something.
November 10, 2025 at 10:50 AM
Look, I'm not a Schumer fan, and if I still lived in NY I would absolutely be primary-curious, but if you're blaming him more than the 8 assholes who crossed the aisle, the entire R house and senate and the nazi squatting in the White House, you giving a pass to the worst offenders.

It is genuinely really fucking weird to think that Elder Millennials and a few young Gen Xers are basically the only people who got vaccinated from internet bullshit. Boomers were too old to learn, and Gen Z/A got the high octane optimized bullshit at too young an age.
Idk. Growing up on early aughts mmo culture you just assumed everything was a lie. Idk if ive ever trusted anything on the internet
So fun that I can’t believe anything I see on the internet is real anymore. What a great future. Good job rich guys.
November 9, 2025 at 7:02 AM
It's wild watching the hyper rich run down the idea of empathy and morality. Like I really didn't think you guys want the non-rich to start thinking about more direct less kind ways to solve their problems.

Like watching Marie Antoinette bitch that Robespierre was too much of a softie.

I've yet to see a single person making claims like this who didn't have a life changing amount of money riding on the general population believing that AGI is real and inevitable.
