@11bitstudios.bsky.social Any chance of having Frostkit made available to Australians? We’re geolocked out of it, even though it was advertised in Australia as being available.

“Hey, remember that scene in Andor when the senator from Gorman got dragged away by stormtroopers for speaking out against what the Empire was doing on his planet?
It just popped in my mind. No reason, I guess.”

1. No-one has any idea what the tariff on America’s two largest trading partners is (bsky.app/profile/cmca...) 2. The existence of the tariffs on countries like Australia is a flagrant treaty violation and proof America cannot be trusted to keep its word; it’ll take a generation to fix. At least.

And right on cue... Elon is talking about gutting the Fed. Clearly aimed at them for being independent and for discussing the massive impending economic crash. Galaxy brain thinking: "there's no recession if the numbers that show we're in one don't exist anymore!"
A screenshot of Elon Musk’s tweet quoting another user’s post saying “End the Fed.” The image includes text from the Federal Reserve’s website stating that the Board employs more than 500 researchers (with over 400 PhD economists). Below that is a bar chart titled “This is how the Fed workers vote,” attributed to The Atlas Society, showing political contributions over several presidential election years (2000 through 2024). The chart is split by Republicans (in red) and Democrats (in blue), with the donations notably favoring Democrats in more recent cycles (especially in 2020 and 2024).

The Atlanta Fed just updated their GDP tracker and it showed an even worse drop in GDP for the 1st quarter of -2.8%, down from +3% at the start of the Trump administration. The closest precedent to this was the economic crisis at the start of COVID.
A line chart titled “Evolution of Atlanta Fed GDPNow real GDP estimate for 2025: Q1 (Quarterly percent change, SAAR).” The horizontal axis is labeled “Date of forecast,” spanning late December through early March. The vertical axis, ranging from −3% to 4%, shows projected real GDP growth rates. A green line (the Atlanta Fed GDPNow estimate) starts around 2% in late December, rises to near 3.5% by late January, and then drops to roughly −3% by early March. A shaded blue band (the Blue Chip consensus) hovers around 2% to 2.5% throughout most of the period, with a lighter outline indicating the top 10 and bottom 10 average forecasts slightly above and below that band. The chart’s sources are Blue Chip Economic Indicators and Blue Chip Financial Forecasts.

In Australia that tweet would be enough for the Senator to be held in contempt of court, which would result in him being removed from office under s44(ii). Unless he grovelled to the court’s satisfaction, that is. Just functional state things.
