I get off work in 2 and a half hours, and then I'm planning on losing my evening to the links in this thread. These studies sound like a great time.

This is the kind of free agent AEW needs to really prioritize. He fits into the scene there so well. Imagine War Dogs v Death Riders.

There’s an active fascist takeover going on. Let’s check in with the Democrats on the Senate Judiciary committee to see how they’re resisting it. Oh… oh I see. They’re trying to blow up Section 230 and open the floodgates for Trump to censor the Internet. Inspiring!

This video absolutely rules and so does Alanah. Love that she went beyond just “social media wars” and addresses the fact that time is the most valuable resource we have. Now more than ever, we need to be very careful and conscious of how we use use it.

SO COOL that Vox Media had two rounds of layoffs in the past three months and keeps cutting our budgets and yet somehow there's $20 million for one person

Tweet from Rob Bluey:
You might not agree with
@karaswisher
’s politics, but you can’t argue with her success.

Q: “What did Kara Swisher, Inc. bring in in 2024?

A: “Millions of dollars. For me, millions of dollars, many, many millions of dollars.”

This year she’s expecting a $20 million payout from Vox.

It's hard to express how much is going on here and what a big deal it is. We've been building toward this for over 8 years now, and we genuinely built a video game history research tool that is usable by anyone. We're democratizing game research through a free, no-bullshit, human-curated resource.
