RIP to a games industry pioneer and legend, Rebecca Heineman (@burgerbecky.bsky.social) If your unfamiliar, look her up. Her career is like the story of videogames itself.

“What these pundits are nudging us to do, ever so politely, is accept that women, in the main, are accustomed to being a little degraded, a little underpaid and ignored and dampened in their ambitions, in ways that men are not and never will be.”
What Did Men Do to Deserve This?
Changes in the economy and in the culture seem to have hit them hard. Scott Galloway believes they need an “aspirational vision of masculinity.”

I think it’s time for everyone to sack off the other games they are playing and just play Blake Manor. I will also accept if you are saving it for Thanksgiving or other festive holidays

It’s been a year to the day we bought (and then didn’t, for reasons we still don’t fully know) InfoWars. We’re still trying. In the year since, we built The Onion into one of the biggest newspapers in the United States. I’m so proud of this place. I’m proud we do hard stuff. Thank you for caring.

Can relate
Women have had it. 2 out of 5 said they'd like to permanently move to another country.
That's four times as high as in 2014.
21 points higher than among young men.
Only 19% of men expressed a similar desire.

No other wealthy country has numbers like these

Record share of women want to leave U.S. for good — more than double that of men
That's four times as high as in 2014.

This clown.
“The decision has been widely criticized, w/ sources suggesting the cancellation was due to her gender and is now forcing her into retirement due to the Navy's ‘up or out’ policy. This officer was expected to become the first woman in the role and the first woman to command in Naval Special Warfare”
A female Navy officer was up for a historic title. Then Hegseth stepped in
There were just two women in the Navy Special Warfare combat crew as of the 2024 budget year

Read every word & share with everyone you know. This is real life here in Chicago. Americans need to know this grotesque reality & stand with us.
Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

In under 1600 words.

Vibrant autumnal foliage and agreeable weather are two reasons that October might be the best month of the year to be outside in New York City. A third is the people watching, which can offer endless style inspiration — particularly for putting on layers. See more street style here. nyti.ms/497zwH4

"Europeans recognize his vision about free public transit and universal childcare. We expect our governments to make these kinds of services accessible to all of us,” said Verbeek. “We pay higher taxes and get civilized societies in return."
Europeans recognize Zohran Mamdani’s supposedly radical policies as ‘normal’
Critics of New York City’s mayor-elect have said his pledges of free bus service and universal childcare are unrealistic, but in Europe it’s a given

This is my neighbor. As in, three houses down from me.
Literally just had a visit from the FBI over these drawings. I wasn’t home, but they talked to my ex-wife, said they were there because of my “social media drawings”.
This is a fascist government.
Drawing takes my mind off the news, and helps me envision are more just and beautiful world. Wish fulfillment, I know, but the good thing about wishing is that sometimes...it leads to action and reality.
This is pen and ink and then toned quick and dirty in photoshop.
