ok listen. i know no big platform is actually "safe" atm. Bluesky is run by shitheads, this place sucks too.

that being said, i need to fucking implore you, Twitter's unsafety is on a whole other level. there's "not safe" and then there's the actual wolf's den.

Long story short, an actual Nazi doxxing ring. Enough people reported them that they went away for like 12 hours and then Elon personally brought them back. The site is dead. If you’re still on there, go lock your account right now

A group of far right assholes have showed up to protest at David Douglas high school after students allegedly pushed back at a formation of a turning point chapter. School is out & they are outnumbered by predominantly Black & Brown students roasting the fuck out of them.

calling the most normie lib protest against trump a “hate rally against america” and calling participants “antifa, marxists, etc” will not work as intended at all lol

Johnson: "We call it the Hate America Rally that will happen Saturday. Let's see who shows up for that. I bet you you'll see Hamas supporters, I bet you'll see antifa types, I bet you'll see Marxists on full display, people who don't want to stand and defend the foundational truths of this republic"

i’m consistently stunned that so many people are sticking with trump despite literally only bad things happening and getting worse under him but then i remember that most of his supporters have this cope that good things will eventually come, when? no idea. but that’s enough for them

if this isn’t the prime example of it, but it proves i think definitively that the purchase of twitter was an ideological move by musk, and not a financial one. he wants the nazi dox squads on there because it helps the cause elon musk believes in

It's not like anyone gets to live forever but for better or for worse Itagaki was larger than life.

At 58, this is even more shocking and out of nowhere.

RIP.

Will never forget that one time he said playtesters were complaining about NG2 being too hard, so he just made the game harder.

Absolutely shocked.

Former Team Ninja boss Tomonobu Itagaki has passed away, as confirmed by his Facebook and personal friends. "Words of departure - my life's light is about to run out." www.facebook.com/tomonobu.ita...

Itagaki's farewell post, which I will not be translating in full because I don't want to do it an injustice. It says it was posted by someone close to him.

Itagaki's final photo of himself, sitting in a restaurant, looking off into the distance.

Some props I've made so far for B.U.G.B.I.T.E

The game is set 400 years in the future after several civilizations have risen and experienced different catastrophic events, and humans now live burrowed into the mountains of trash from those civilizations, hence the cobbled-together look.

It's unsurprising but so funny that the lesson they're taking here is "Tron" is the problem, and not that everyone fucking hates Jared Leto

A new report suggests that the disastrous opening weekend for the Jared-Leto-starring sequel may lead to Disney pulling the plug on the Grid once and for all.

important note from libcrusher:

Reactivating temporarily to send a warning.
Since I got doxxed, it appears the same doxxing ring has targeted several other users. I learned that they were banned this week, only for Elon to, apparently, personally unban them. I feel obliged to warn everyone about my experience.

It wasn't just my personal information that got published. Someone, somewhere, got my passwords too. For my banking accounts, brokerage accounts, venmo, etc.
Most of which had different and unique passwords. All these attempts started the day i got doxxed, and have sporadically continued since.

If you know anyone who's been doxxed by this group, you need to have them change all their passwords on every website immediately. Ensure 2FA and any other security measures are in place everywhere.
And, wherever possible, document and report it. Frankly, if you're a lefty of any note, do it now too

If anyone was also a victim of this or knows someone who was, there are ways to reach me. I wish I could go into more details right now. But until that time comes, protect yourself.

I will be deactivating in 20 minutes.
Hopefully, that's enough time for the warning to get out.

It's extremely funny that Kendrick wrote a whole verse addressed to Drake's secret daughter, we all waited for receipts for that, they never came, but everyone was still cool with it because we all figured "yeah, statistically speaking, Drake probably has a daughter he's neglecting somewhere."
