Had the night to myself so I fired up an indie game I’d heard good things about called Her Story - I was NOT prepared for the sheer brilliance and ingenuity of the storytelling and gameplay. Played it in one utterly enrapt sitting and could not recommend it more. Thank you, @mrsambarlow.bsky.social!

Having been forced to look at his face for the last hour on the massive TV in my company’s new office, my working theory is that Todd Blanche is a great white shark pretending to be human, probably in the interest of hastening our downfall.
A predator with cold, dead eyes.A great white shark.

Thinking this morning about how 25 years ago the spontaneous global reaction to 9-11 was an outpouring of empathy and solidarity with the USA, Including candlelight vigils in Tehran. That moment was utterly squandered by US leaders. www.newyorker.com/magazine/200...

This particular criminalization of parental poverty, used to disproportionately pathologize Black women and steal their children, is called Jane Crow. And it's proliferating because of deliberately cruel, punitive administrative policies like what's happening to SNAP and Medicaid.

After seeing the movie tonight I’ve decided to start referring to this old photo of mine as my OBSESSION portrait. 🫣 Never seen a movie do so much with just backlighting. #iykyk #obsessionmovie #backlighting #selfportrait

Where is the lie?
CHINA:

"The US is a war addict. Throughout its over 240-year history, it has been at war for all but 16 years.

The US has 800 overseas military bases in over 80 countries and regions.

The US is the main cause of international disorder, global turbulence, and regional instability."

I can't get over this number: in 2007, there were 360,000 newspaper jobs. Now, there are 80,000. "My local paper sucked!" Sure. What sucks even more? The void. "I get all my news from the Guardian!" No, the Guardian doesn't report on your town council, your school board, local cops.

IN. SUM: “Trump’s White House claimed NPR and PBS shouldn’t get federal money because they produce ‘woke propaganda.’ But both are reputable news sources, and the reality is Trump simply wants to shut them down because they don’t report on him in flattering ways.”

Now this is the kind of shit that I love. After reading @blacktopkid.bsky.social’s KING OF ASHES, I was wondering if its setting of Jefferson Run, VA is a real city. It isn’t, but I was validated to see that I’m not the only reader who was so entranced by the book that they had the same question.
