The amount of work the collective teams have done on this incredible collab is immense and I’m so proud of John’s role leading it all! CRUSHED IT 👊🏻

Alright nerdy PC video editor friendos, I need some help. Premiere is frequently locking up on me making it hard to work. I think it’s time for a GPU and RAM upgrade. I’ve got a Ryzen 9 3900X CPU, but which GPU should I get and how much RAM? I’m deep diving into PC subreddits and recs are all over.

It was a nail biter last night but so happy the Vikings pulled out a win!! JJ unsurprisingly showed that yes, he’s a rookie, but hopefully will get more confident each game. Sorry not sorry Bears 😂🐻🚫🏈 #SKOL

Fire season is ramping up here in California but the Watch Duty app really makes it seem like the whole West Coast is ablaze 🔥😰 (of course it’s not, the U.S. is just geographically very large)

Trump’s unnecessary and totally political deployment of the military is costing taxpayers $134 million. Even LA’s formerly Republican District Attorney said today local law enforcement resources were adequate to meet the needs of the protests.

Let me be crystal clear: I was very close to the protests happening in DTLA: they are *NOT* riots. There were some agitators yes, but the aftermath of a Lakers/Kings championship is more destructive than this. (But it will surely escalate if more troops get involved.)

"On June 14, Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday. A spectacle meant to look like strength. But real power isn’t staged in Washington. It rises up everywhere else..."

I travelled freely yesterday all over the city for Summer Game Fest stuff and didn’t even see a second of the “violence requiring intervention.” It’s…just a normal weekend mostly?
Weird to see how it’s being portrayed.

These fascist dipshits keep claiming there is all kinds of violence in Los Angeles right now. At this very moment, even!
Weirdly, every single local channel is running regular programming, instead of this BREAKING NEWS EVENT.
It's like ... it's like the dipshits are lying, or something. Weird.

If you're not excited about a single game announced and shown at Summer Games Fest, I think you may want to step away from games and rediscover why you started playing in the first place.

The largest audience pop of the show (at least near me) so far is this Scott Pilgrim EX trailer! #summergamefest Going to make a confession: never been into it. Not mad at it, just indifferent. Were you into it?

Pacing of the show so far is great! Lots of really different games with some fun surprises. I think it was super smart to scale back the number of people on stage in service of momentum. #summergamefest
