Pubbed a couple of things today. But tomorrow I'll share the real Chris Hayner goods, as I write about theme parks and find a way to praise Disney cruises on @polygon.com.

I am so lucky I got to spend any time at all working with you.

Chris Hayner @haynerland.com · 1d

I love you guys and still haunt your slack.

Chris Hayner @haynerland.com · 1d

Yeah it kinda came out of nowhere.

Chris Hayner @haynerland.com · 1d

I guess I should say something?

I started at @polygon.com yesterday. Really love the team at @thegamerweb.bsky.social and will still obviously be bugging them in Slack (sorry, Jade), but excited to join this really rad group of people.

Despite what some, including at DHS, are claiming, this video isn’t from a year ago in Chicago. It was Friday in Hoffman Estates, in my district, a street I’ve walked myself. It appears to show a child being violently detained by ICE. It’s real, and I’m demanding accountability.

A single nuclear warhead, of unknown origin, is heading toward the U.S. mainland in Kathryn Bigelow's new Netflix film. It's an unnerving scenario — but it's also thrilling to watch. n.pr/48przga

The finding out part always stings.

Not quite what I expected on a Friday.

Thanks for such an excellent season of TV. (And dammit I love the Season 2 opening so much).

Chris Hayner @haynerland.com · 5d

I love Peacemaker Season 2's intro so much. It definitely tops Season 1 for me. Also, this season of the show, on the whole, is excellent.

I would’ve gotten into game of thrones much earlier if they got rid of dragons and made it funny.

Jason Blum says Hollywood should 'embrace AI' and viewers 'don't care if what they’re looking at is AI"

"it’s here to stay. It’s very important to use it ethically and legally, and for studios and guilds to protect the copyright of the artists"

The Voltaggio Boyz are my fav wrestlers.

Hey media. When a politician gives you a bullshit answer, your job to press further.

You don’t work for them. They work for you.

Believe me, people in editorial power think it's both weird and gross. But the alternative is everyone gets fired because there's no money to keep the lights on. Journalism isn't free, even though society seems to think it is.
