They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.
Torture Techniques from CIA Black Sites Were Used at Alligator Alcatraz
Amnesty International, interviewing migrant detainees, identifies use of the confinement box. There can be no denying it is a torture prison

Twins but it’s Shaq and Kevin Hart.

Accidentally fucked up the order of payment of some bills, so I’m in desperate need of commissions 🙃 So maybe for the holidays: consider getting something nice for yourself or your loved ones, and help a broke artist keep her WiFi on💰
Comms are OPEN, and I could REALLY use the support 🌈 Please retweet, share and help a freelance artist survive!!! (Check out the thread below for more art 💖)

Love that my toddler is into The Muppet Show. I never watched the old episodes, so I’m thrilled to share this together.

you think you need to leave intelligent, thoughtful comments? lmao no

“loved it!” is all you need to say. blurt that out on Steam, YouTube, Amazon for whatever game, book, or video caught your fancy

The algorithm is all consuming but you can help cool people by just commenting “👍🏼”’ so do it
PRO TIP

If you have YouTubers you like and follow and watch their videos a lot

leave innane/positive comments on their videos. The algo is all fucked up for YT creators and a lot of videos get sent to the void for whatever reason.

I hate doing it, but I've been trying to do it.

Please don't let the fear of not doing something well stop you from trying it for the first time. Write a messy story. Paint a crappy flower. Whittle the worst wooden bear of all time.

The best gift you can give yourself is to have fun and grow.

Cool thread about Arco
Short spoiler free story about my experience with Arco.

Back before bsky took off, I saw a post on Twitter from a game dev asking for advice because their game is reviewing extremely highly but it's not reflecting on sales. I wanna help but I gotta try it first. So I make a note to check it out. 1/

Post your favorite "Lord of the Rings" character. Wrong answers only.

Loved it when he stopped the Balrog.

As a kid I used to help my aunt set up her Hallmark Christmas village, so naturally mine is now made of Legos.

Die Hard is as much a Christmas movie as Jingle Bell Rock is a rock song.

Watching Coco with my daughter and I sing Remember Me during the scene where the song’s truth is revealed, and she says “go away papa” 🙃

Combat instructor in the Marines, I was training in the desert and I asked the tankers if I could sit inside their M1A2 Abrams.
When I looked through the gunner’s seat, I immediately recognized the reticle from Battlefield 2.
I realized someone is making this accurate.
Now I work on Gears of War.

Builds, builds, builds.

Can you play my builds?
Can you play development builds?
Do you play my demo builds?
If you did, then maybe we could chill
I don't think you do
So, you and me are through
