Russia…

The joke is that they are avoiding the movie. The only place to not see the movie is outside.

Classic capitalist trap. AI is a service that was never meant to be profitable. AI is bringing tech bros into socialism.

Conspiracy brain says this was deliberately done to make any evidence inadmissible and key evidence gathered without a warrant would result in an acquittal with an unlikely second trial for fear of double jeopardy.

He promised not to if the movie was Certified Fresh. Hence the call.

Only if the hate and terror behind Trump is out too. Otherwise it’s like changing from dirty underwear into more dirty underwear. No one wants to deal with that shit.

Literally any ham fisted conspiracy idea is true. Big money has control over your life and there is nothing anyone can do. Legally…

Art of the deal

This is way better than Robo Taxi convoys of 2 chase cars following one driverless vehicle. A fraction of the footprint and manpower cost of Musk’s venture.

Hakeem Jeffries should write him a very sternly worded letter. It will convince him to change

Russia then Israel. The US isn’t currently killing people en masse so starting with them seems more personal preference than objective decision.

Some crazy whataboutism. Both are bad. Why are you making it a contest?

Russian history is a timeline of the worst execution of a terrible system for running an expansive wilderness built out of fear by greed.

Russia doesn’t deserve to be remembered. It doesn’t deserve a language. The people should not continue as “Russian”. They can be split up and diversified across smaller states that can reinvigorate suppressed local cultures. “Russian” is basically short hand for Asian Imperialism and it’s far outlived any usefulness for the people.

To some, Japan is the scary island.

problem with Epic is that they were with the wrong assumption

A lot of Epic was based on very cynical assumptions about who play games and why. Epic and Tim Sweeney see “gamers” as a monotype who spend money like water and have no loyalty to a brand or marketplace. It must be a shock to give away so much stuff and not buy and favor with the community.

Shareholders don’t understand that we have a few games we cherish and spend years playing. Epic never understood it’s audience and still seems to be missing the point.

Removing Russia as a culture and nation would improve the world drastically overnight.

I loved Civ from 1 through 6. Even 6 was fine after a while. But 7 was just… hollow. Like it knows how to look like Civ but it isn’t Civ. It’s a marketing tool to grab money from players through DLC and subscription passes.

Let’s see how changing the gameplay entirely fixes the personality of 7. I’m hopeful if only to return to a beloved series but am so tired of the hyper marketing of 2K, Take Two, and how disrespectful it is to the people who have already paid to play their game.

Pena uses his social networks to echo the stories of migrants as well as voices critical of Brazil’s leftwing president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, and those supportive of its recently jailed former far-right president Jair Bolsonaro, who is an ally of Trump.

The US’s estimated 2 million-strong Brazilian community has been badly affected by Trump’s anti-migrant offensive, with the number of deported Brazilians hitting a record high of 2,785 last year, compared with 1,640 in 2024.

Well, it is the story of migrants.

In a previous video, Pena reportedly urged Brazilians to stay calm and not “despair” after reports that ICE agents were rounding up migrants, including Brazilians. “But they’re all crooks. The lot of them,” he falsely claimed of the migrants being seized.

On Saturday, Pena was himself reportedly detained and sent to the Delaney Hall detention facility in Newark, New Jersey. One friend told the local newspaper the Brazilian Times that Pena had been taken into custody after missing a court hearing.

True journalism is not reporting the pulse but the movement of the heart. He’s so close to the source because he’s the problem.

Man, the disintegration of Trump’s base is fascinating to watch. The DOJ just gave up censoring things and released a shit load of unredacted files. Yes, there is CSAM but importantly the files are wide open and showing everything. And boy does it look really bad for a lot of people who were all wrapped up with Epstein.
