So Link and Zelda have been cast for the live action Legend of Zelda movie.

Now how long do I have to wait before I see Bautista is cast as Ganondorf

Truth, an ethical requirement for all lawyers, is a now fireable offense.
The DOJ lawyer who made the mistake of answering the court's questions about Abrego-Garcia candidly (eg yes he was mistakenly deported, a fact the Administration already has acknowledged), which got him put on administrative leave, has now been fired, ending his 15-year DOJ career..

So Trump can get the Tate bros out of a Romanian prison.

But can't get Garcia out of a El Salvador prison...he paid to have him kept in?

Considering how many people enjoy the Persona franchise...and dating Sims.

"Thousand Arms" not having a re-release, remaster, or sequal is really a huge missed opportunity for Atlus.

i think shutting the government down is preferably to nullifying article i of the constitution
The weeks of performative “resistance” from those in my party were limited to undignified antics.

Voting to shut the government down will punish millions or risk a recession.

I disagree with many points in the CR, but I will never vote to shut our government down.

Elon Musk said DOGE made a mistake by cutting USAID’s Ebola prevention but it had been “restored.”

That’s not true, current and former officials told me and @johnphudson.bsky.social.

“There have been no efforts to ‘turn on’” Ebola prevention, said Nidhi Bouri, who oversaw team until January.
Musk claims DOGE ‘restored’ Ebola prevention effort. Officials disagree.
USAID’s initiatives to fight Ebola and other diseases have been gutted, current and former agency officials said.

these are segregationists.
“The Maryland National Guard must decline events which celebrates individuals based all or in part on immutable characteristics,” the memo said.

Douglass was an abolitionist, suffragist, orator and author. That’s what we celebrate him. Let’s be clear: This bars celebrating him because he was Black.

REPORTER: Will it take an act of Congress to do away with USAID?

How is this not the biggest scandal in America right now? Isn’t this unprecedented??
Maybe Dems in the Senate should take a break from voting to confirm Trump nominees & condemn the guy who said he wanted Pelosi ‘hanged’ on Jan 6th, & also condemn the guy who just released him from prison! Sheesh.
Trump gives top stormtrooper Stewart Rhodes a seat on stage at his speech, in case you thought he was done with January 6
