Trans people have been warning y'all for years that they were perfecting tactics on us to use on everyone else. The reporter of this piece, Christina Jewett, contributed to that too. She helped fuel the moral panic over puberty blockers in trans youth. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/05/h...

You have absolutely no business complaining about the future increase in price of games or the death of physical games media if you buy GTA VI. The writing is on the wall for the future the industry is heading towards and your complaining won't mean shit if you still financially contribute to it.

the international right wing and US capital have an iron monopoly on the entire planet's information technology & data flow, and are directly using this everywhere for their purposes, and neither leftists nor liberals have an answer to this because they are wedded to cellular localism.

You know a pet peeve of mine? I keep seeing think pieces and videos, even from progressives, about how at some point AI will achieve sentience and be worthy of moral consideration. We can't even give every human on this planet moral consideration.

Seeing this just fills me with absolute despair at the climate situation. We are still at peak emissions. We haven't even begun decreasing emissions and even if we did, the warming that's baked from past emissions will last for centuries. We're cooked.

trying my best to stay out of rape discourse because the past few years have already been very hard & it seems like 60% of people are cool with a world with a little rape in it but whoever this was invented “manic pixie rape girl in the lives of the men they helped improve” & that sucks. it sucks.
I don't mean to downplay sexual assault but l also have known a lot of good people who had to learn healthy boundaries by violating someone else's and never forgetting the experience

GOP ads right now are all about attacking trans people. Over, and over, and over. I was a gay teen in 2004 watching the Bush campaign try to win on attacking gay marriage, but the resort to this hate drive in campaign ads feels so dialed up now. I can’t imagine being an lgbt kid watching tv today.

Chicagoland friends, I have a favor to ask. I have a pro bono client, a Black woman, who is currently facing charges for allegedly pointing a gun at her abusive ex - who admitted to raping her. I would love if there could be a show of support for her at her next few court dates.

#StopKillingGames is proud to announce that we are working with Senator John Kane of the Pennsylvania State Senate, on the Protect Our Games (POG) Act in Pennsylvania
Protect Our Games Act memo announcement by John Kane of the Pennsylvania State Senate, describing: video game manufacturers would be required to give customers at least 60 days' notice before ending access to the game or changing its features.

Additionally, the companies would also be required to provide customers with at least one of the following options:

The ability to use the video game offline
A patch to continue using the game online independent of the company's online gaming services
A refund in an amount equal to the highest price of the digital game offered by the digital game operator within the 12 months before the digital game operator ceases providing services for the ordinary use of the digital game. The refund amount cannot fall below 25% of the initial sale price of the game
Additionally, the bill would include exemptions for subscription-based services where access to games lasts only for the duration of the subscription.

If enacted, the bill would be enforced by the Pennsylvania Attorney General and the district attorneys.

One of the things to come from GamerGate was the gamification of torturing real, live women...hounding them out of their homes, making them look over their shoulders for years. It was treated as a joke, nbd, the work of a few bad apples--as all terrorism against women is--& that failure leads here.
