If you’re right wing and you can’t admit liberals (not communists) are way better at art and design and boutique coffee shops and restaurants, you’re not living in reality.
If you’re left wing and you can’t admit conservatives are way better at running cities and businesses and police departments, you’re not living in reality.
You step inside a beautiful coffee shop in the PNW and think “man, these liberals are great at this stuff…conservatives should take notes.” Then the moment you step outside and trip over a homeless drug zombie shooting up fentanyl on the sidewalk, you think “man these liberals are terrible at this stuff…they should really take notes from conservatives”
Communists make disgusting anti-beauty art, but classical liberals aren’t like that. Put the libs in charge of the coffee shops, put the conservatives in charge of city hall. This is how you get a city that is beautiful, clean, and functional.
If you can’t accept that, you need to check your tribalism. We are never getting rid of each other, so figure out how we strike a balance or else the communists swoop in and take everything from us while we quarrel over stupid bullshit…which is exactly what’s happening now.

Tonight’s outcome isn’t about placing faith in Democrats or socialist principles; it’s about holding Republicans accountable for betraying their promises.
All Republicans had to do was:
1. put Americans First
2. not start another war
3. prosecute sex traffickers

Same question as below. I also looked into who these “narrative consultants” are, and I just can’t wrap my head around why anyone would hire someone, whose only writing credit is “additional writing” on a pixel art mix of Tower Defense and Techno Synthwave, with a plot that revolves around "defending your town from the living embodiment of greed" as a “story consultant” on a 300 million dollar budget game. Especially, when the person also gives lectures claiming that “To prove that the space where whiteness doesn’t have to exist is where some of the best stories are told,” or where they mention that they’re here to “burn the games industry to the ground,” and who also thinks, that “Tarantino’s work does need to be critiqued out of existence.” Another consultant has a degree in marketing, and another one's only original work consists of three amateur short stories. How on earth is it possible, that you don’t need to have proper education, experience, or any track record worth mentioning, to work at a company which advises people a thousand times more talented and experienced, on how to do their jobs on triple A titles with budgets in the hundreds of millions of dollars? It's like asking a janitor to perform brain surgery on someone. And I dont need to mention, that most games where they did the consulting turned out to be commercial disasters. WHY? What is the logic behind this?

The physical version of Final Fantasy 7 Revelation will still require a download. Director Naoki Hamaguchi says putting the entire game on the disc would have meant compromising its quality.
Hamaguchi explained that each platform has limits on physical media capacity, saying:
“Compromising the quality of the final chapter in order to achieve a fully on-disc release would ultimately not be in the best interest of many fans.”
He also acknowledged that the decision won’t please everyone, but added:
“There is real value in being able to offer a physical edition at all.”
This is some bullshit, they can just launch it on two or three discs if necessary. Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Rebirth shipped on two discs with the full games included.

PlayStation thought the game was called physical and had to back out
As confirmed earlier through our official channels, in mid-June of this year, we unexpectedly received notice from PlayStation Studios that they would cancel the PHYSINT project. PHYSINT is an important project both to me personally and to KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS. Determined to keep the project alive, we have spent the last three months searching tirelessly for a new partner. In the course of seeking advice and pursuing negotiations with people across many fields, we found in XBOX a partner with whom we share a common vision for the future, and we have decided to team up with them once again. Please rest assured that development of PHYSINT, our genre-defining action-espionage title, is ongoing and will continue moving forward.

Bad news, Nexus Mods has acquired SteamDB, one of the most useful tools for tracking Steam games
SteamDB creator xPaw is stepping back after years of running the site largely on his own, he said the growing workload eventually led to burnout, and he wanted to find a team he could trust to take the project forward.
The bigger plan is to connect SteamDB’s game version and update data with Nexus Mods.

There is no such thing as “cis” women.
There is no such thing as trans women.
There is no such thing as trans men.
There are women. There are men.
And there infinite ways of expressing those 2 realities.
That’s what your personality is, not your gender.
Hope that helps.

I’m a gay man and I’m done staying silent.
I survived bullying, the coming-out wars, and actual hate for who I am.
What I won’t accept is importing millions from cultures where they throw us off rooftops, hang us, or jail us for life.
Pride flags in Tehran? Laughable. Open borders + unchecked migration from places that treat gays like vermin isn’t “compassion” — it’s suicide for everything we fought for.
Protect Western values or watch them disappear. Gay rights aren’t compatible with mass immigration from the most anti-gay societies on Earth.
Change my mind.

The Epstein Class is trying to OUTLAW the free internet!
As a result, PV will NO LONGER ISSUE ENDORSEMENTS to any candidates who won’t take a stand on these issues below:
Overview:
The bi-partisan elite, both in congress and through their corrosive market influences, are currently engaging in a campaign to restrict our internet freedoms. To put it simply, they are trying to privatize the Patriot Act and in doing so, exert more control over what is allowed to be discussed and who is allowed to participate in those discussions. We’ve gone from calls to regulate social media as a public utility to calls to abolish the democratic elements of social media entirely. In the last week alone we have seen several social media platforms comply in advance by cracking down on your free speech and mandating you upload your face and ID to ICE. We have to fight back to save the internet!
Battlefronts:
* The Effort to Repeal Section 230
* KOSA and other ID age verification laws around the world
* Platforms partnering with vendors like Persona to scrape Age Verification data to give to DHS/ICE and advertisers
* State Laws requiring ID to view porn websites
* Banning End-to-End encryption
Impact:
Section 230 of the 1996 Communications Decency Act protects online platforms from criminal and/or civil liability for all user generated content that does not violate federal law. Its repeal, as currently being championed by individuals like @SenatorDurbin, @amyklobuchar, and many others, would immediately lead to all social media sites mass banning users and mass removing any content of their platform that they deem as risky. It would make social media have to act like Cable TV where all aired content would need to be vetted for legal liability. Calls to boycott Israel would be labeled as anti semitism and thus likely blocked outright.
KOSA (Kids Online Safety Act) and other age verification laws passed by various states, the UK, Australia, and Brazil would require everyone to upload their government ID to each website that contains anything the government or market deems to be 18+. This includes the obvious, but more insidiously it also refers to political speech. All those posts about ICE murdering American citizens would count. Accountability for any atrocity would become impossible. Worst of all, platforms are pre-capitulating to these laws against their interests as we have seen Discord recently attempt to do. Apple also announced it is going to require ID to download 18+ applications through the App Store. California today announced a new law that would require age verification at the operating system level.
West Virginia is suing Apple over end-to-end encryption. They claim this is to protect children but in reality it's to make it so the surveillance capabilities only the NSA could pull off would be possible by even your local police department.
This sounds too extreme or hyperbolic to be true, but it is!

Alabama just signed a law that gives convicted child sex offenders the death penalty.
Florida was the first state to do this.
Tennessee, Idaho, Arkansas, and Oklahoma followed suit.
Should all 50 states have the same law?

Please contact these senators to confirm that you want voter ID required in elections in America
Howcome retweeted
Dear Democrats,
Since you've made it crystal clear that requiring an ID to exercise a CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT is "disenfranchisement" and "the new Jim Crow," I have a proposal.
The Second Amendment is a constitutional right. Voting is a constitutional right. You claim requiring ID to vote suppresses people from exercising their right. Okay. Then requiring ID to purchase a firearm suppresses people from exercising THEIR right. Same logic. Same constitution. Same argument.
So here's my challenge to every Republican in Congress: introduce a bill TOMORROW that eliminates ALL identification requirements for purchasing firearms. No background checks. No ID. No waiting periods. Nothing. If Democrats truly believe that ID requirements prevent citizens from exercising constitutional rights, they'll HAVE to support it. Right?
...right?
Watch how fast they twist themselves into pretzels. "Well, THAT'S different because—" No. Stop. It's not different. You don't get to argue that an ID requirement is an unconstitutional burden on ONE right but a perfectly reasonable safeguard for ANOTHER. That's not how the Constitution works. Either ID requirements disenfranchise people or they don't. Pick one.
And let's be honest about what's really happening here. The party that created Jim Crow literacy tests, had a former KKK RECRUITER in Robert Byrd filibuster the Civil Rights Act for 14 hours, and segregated federal offices under Woodrow Wilson is now telling me that Black Americans can't figure out how to get a free government ID. India scans fingerprints for 1.4 BILLION voters. But apparently Americans are too helpless to show the same card they used to buy Sudafed on the way to the polls.
The SAVE Act passed the House requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote. Democrats fought it tooth and nail. Why? What POSSIBLE reason would you oppose verifying that voters are citizens unless you NEED non-citizens on the rolls?
Quinn's Law #2: "If you want to know what liberals are up to, pay attention to what they accuse conservatives of doing." They scream "voter suppression" while fighting every measure to secure elections. They're not protecting rights. They're protecting a system they can manipulate.
So I'm dead serious. Put the bill on the floor. No ID for gun purchases. Call their bluff. Make them explain why an ID requirement is tyranny at the ballot box but common sense at the gun store. I'll bring the popcorn.
But what do I know? I'm just a guy who thinks constitutional rights should be treated equally — not selectively — depending on which ones the left finds politically convenient.
