A distraught friend yesterday boiled it down perfectly: "If we won, we'd be celebrating how many of them would get healthcare, education, or student loans canceled. But they won, and they're celebrating how many of us they get to kill." Tells the whole story, doesn't it?

I can’t get over the generals, the fucking generals, the most right wing, old timey conservative Republican people on Earth — they ALL said, “Trump is a dangerous fascist. Do not vote for him.” And these dumbasses simply didn’t listen, didn’t care. And now we all have to pay.

We need a plan for when MAGA tries to close down urban polling places with bomb threats on Election Day.

32/ Here's the scary thing, that I think tells us a lot about America: the same independent/Democratic voters who casually say "WGAF" about a possible Trump-Loomer affair would call for Harris to end her campaign if she were having an analogous affair. We're that type of country.

62/ I’ve said this in other threads but want to repeat it: if Harris is the nominee you must be prepared for... The. Most. Openly. Racist. And Misogynistic. Presidential. Campaign. In American History. I can’t emphasize this enough: it’ll be wall-to-wall *vile* racism/misogyny.

41/ (9) Donald Trump runs best against women and minorities, because he’s an *expert* at finding ways to stoke racism and misogyny among white voters (and even some nonwhite voters) who do not *perceive* themselves to have latent racist and/or misogynistic views. This is a fact.

Donald Trump is basically giving Democrats the election on a silver platter, and some Democrats are complaining that the platter isn't silver enough.

The Nazis rose to power legally. Every mechanism they used to take complete control was within the laws of the Weimar Republic. Once they got total power they didn’t give it up until millions were dead at their hands and parts of Germany were flattened.
March 1933 The Enabling Act becomes law in Germany, giving the chief executive power enforce his own laws without checks and balances. The passing of the Act marked the formal transition from democratic republic to totalitarian dictatorship. 6 months later, it was a 1 party state

WHY HAS IT BEEN SUCH A LIGHT YEAR, GEOFF? WHAT’S HAPPENING TO ALL OF THE PEOPLE MAKING GAMES, GEOFF?
Geoff says the Summer Game Fest doesn’t have a “one more thing” game this year. According to him, it’s a light year for the industry. He hopes Nintendo will participate in Summer Game Fest someday.

This country has more force for student protesters than they did for Jan. 6 or white supremacists marching through campuses with Tiki torches.

Cis and trans women invite unfair, cruel levels of scrutiny and vitriol for simply expressing themselves across fandom spaces. It takes incredible courage to do so, and we should do our part to normalize continued inclusion. Sharing any space with actual bigots is unacceptable.

Recently, @IGN Management shocked us by laying off 3 of our union members in yet another company reorg. We are currently in emergency negotiations attempting to protect their livelihoods. Here’s where we sit, and how you can help:

What pisses me off about the Sweet Baby Inc and general anti-DEI outrage is that people are all "if you don't like it go and make your own things" until queers and POC actually make their own things and then suddenly it's straight white erasure
