Good morning from Texas. #WinterStorm

Federal immigration agents just shot and killed another person in #Minneapolis, marking a horrific escalation in this administration’s mass crackdown. This isn't just "enforcement"—it’s state-sponsored violence turning our cities into combat zones. 🚨

The #FCC is weaponizing "equal time" rules to target late-night and daytime TV. Their goal? Make booking a Democrat so legally risky that networks just stop doing it. This is a direct attack on free speech disguised as bureaucratic "fairness." 🚨📺

I’ve been working on a new tool to help monitor immigration enforcement activity.

Introducing @icefinder.bsky.social 🤖

It is an automated, AI-powered news aggregator that tracks ICE & CBP operations, court rulings, and community alerts 24/7.

Here is a look under the hood at how it works. 🧵👇

You simply cannot make this up. Donald #Trump is now threatening our #NATO allies with a trade war—and potential military escalation—specifically because Norway didn’t give him the Nobel Peace Prize. We are being governed by a toddler with nuclear codes. 🚨🤯

#Trump just casually announced the US "captured" Nicolás #Maduro. Regardless of your view on the #Venezuelan leader, unilateral regime change announced via social media is absolutely terrifying. We are flying completely blind into a massive geopolitical crisis. 🚨

The infinite drop. 🧱

Just deployed "Tetromino" to the Lab. It’s a study in matrix manipulation—rotating 2D arrays and splicing rows without a game engine.

It’s 1981 again. 🦍

Just deployed "Jumpman" to the Lab!
Features: vector gravity, friction, and slope detection.

🏓 The grandfather of video game physics.

Rebuilding Pong sounds easy until you try to get the ball reflection angles just right. It’s the perfect "Hello World" for understanding collision detection and game loops.

🚀 Drifting through the void!

Recreated the vector-graphics classic Asteroids to get a handle on inertial physics in the browser.

👾 Resurrecting 1978.

I rebuilt Space Invaders to understand how we used to manage entities before object-oriented game engines existed. Simple, but hypnotic.

Just wrapped up my Pac-Man engine in vanilla JS.

Fully playable with sound and scoring.
No game engines, just code.

Trump’s fragile ego is now dismantling our national cultural institutions. His handpicked board just renamed the #KennedyCenter after him—likely violating federal law—causing a mass exodus of performers who refuse to normalize this farce. 🤡

#Trump just casually announced on a radio show that he ordered a military land strike inside #Venezuela. No Congressional approval. No evidence provided. No official #Pentagon confirmation. Just a President potentially starting a war (or hallucinating one) to impress a billionaire buddy. 🚨

Check out #VintageGameLab!

Initiative dedicated to rebuilding classic #arcade mechanics using HTML5 and JavaScript. Leveraging AI, I engineer custom physics, collision detection, and game loops to deconstruct the logic behind the classics.

Volodymyr #Zelenskyy is preparing for a face-to-face with Donald Trump. Why? Because he is forced to prepare for the horrifying reality that the guy who openly admires Putin might control US foreign policy again soon. It’s purely survival mode diplomacy.

Need a break from your family this #Christmas?
Take time out to play my new #IndieDev #WordGame, SCALE!

It's #Wordle meets #Anagrams. Each level adds a letter to the previous solution, creating a "ladder" of increasing difficulty.

🚨 Over 1,000 nonprofits just silently scrubbed words like "racism," "equity," and "marginalized" from their tax forms. Why? To appease the Trump administration's anti-DEI crusade. This isn't just a paperwork update; it is a mass capitulation of values. 🤐

#Trump just appointed a "special envoy" to annex #Greenland like it’s a distressed real estate asset. 🏝️👮‍♂️ This isn't diplomacy; it's a hostile takeover of a sovereign territory that has repeatedly said "NO." Imperialism is back in style at the White House. 🧵

The #Trump admin just banned 5 European officials from the US for the "crime" of... enforcing their own laws? 🌍🚫 Marco #Rubio calls it "fighting censorship." The rest of the world calls it an authoritarian tantrum to protect Big Tech profits. The hypocrisy is blinding. 🧵

Masks off at #CBS. New Editor-in-Chief #BariWeiss just proved why she was hired—not to lead journalism, but to strangle it. She personally killed a #60Minutes investigation into Trump’s deportation camps just hours before airtime. This is what media capture looks like. 🤐

Massive blow to the MAGA "invasion" rhetoric. #SCOTUS just shot down a desperate attempt by red states to force National Guard troops into Democratic #Illinois against Governor Pritzker’s will. They wanted to occupy a blue city as a political stunt. Not today. 🚫

The #DOJ attempt to hide the truth in the #Epstein files just failed spectacularly. 💻 People are using basic tech (like highlighting text) to undo #redactions, revealing cash payments to models and coordinated cover-ups. If they thought they could bury this to protect the elite, they were wrong. 🚨
December 23, 2025 at 7:51 PM
#JDVance just went full mask-off at #TPUSA, refusing to criticize neo-Nazis like Nick Fuentes while declaring America a "Christian nation." Other #MAGA speakers drew a line at literal fascists. Vance? He called rejecting bigotry a "purity test." This is the VP openly courting white supremacists.
