National media should really be covering the fact thay every major school, museum, and arts institution in the Twin Cities, and hundreds of local businesses are closed tomorrow to protest federal occupation.

Nothing like this at this scale has happened anywhere in America anytime in living memory.

Congress passed the Taft-Hartley Act in 1947 (over Truman's veto) to make general strikes so incredibly difficult to organize that there hasn't been one since.

That there is a general strike happening in a major US city on such short notice is nothing short of a miracle.

I've seen people talking about Trump's Board of Peace, but what they miss is that they are misspelling it, according to his letter it isn't the Board of Peace it is that he is Bored With Peace

My wife & I started our Hop-Along Cassidy marathon tonight after hearing @bobchipman.bsky.social break down the franchise. Now, I’m hardly a fan of Westerns, but yeah, I really can see myself watching 65 more of these (especially w/ Robert Mitchum to look forward to).

Its funny how the Republicans are always able to gum things up when they're in the minority but Democrats are always utterly powerless no matter how many seats they have.

We are watching one of the wildest things a nation-state has ever done: A superpower is committing suicide because the GOP Congress is too cowardly to stand up to the Mad King.

This is one of the wildest moments in all of geopolitics ever.

Combining film criticism, biography, history, and cultural commentary to tell a story that pulls you in and leaves you both thoughtful and moved, the obvious precedent is Kael’s Raising Kane, and @bobchipman.bsky.social ’s essay stands up remarkably well to the comparison.

Losing my mind at the Dems with their billionaire backers and powerful friends who have come up with the brilliant strategy that the party should adopt the policy positions of the avg MAGA voter — apparently ignoring that independents and swing voters even exist. Is this what $40 million gets you??

Donald Trump is furious people are calling him Pedophile Protector.

DO NOT CALL him Pedophile Protector.
Definately do NOT RT/like posts calling him Pedophile Protector.

As I somewhat expected 🤷‍♂️ The Algorithm does NOT love a video essay about 100 year-old cowboy movies that doesn't frontload the present-day relativity 🙄 So if anyone wants to help this one find its way to the sources, outlets, forums etc that will boost it we'd be grateful

Interesting you say that. When I was travelling through Europe for Magic events I met a Russian Magic Judge and she said something very similar regarding how Russia was not oppressive at all and was completely misrepresented... Or you both may be brainwashed.

That Trump contacted major oil companies and his political donors about the attack on Venezuela and has not met with Congress is a matter of fact.

This is Trump's world of pure corruption for personal gain, and screw the people of the United States, much less the people of Venezuela on display.

I notice a large number of Americans, probably Dems but you never know, saying we can't treat all Americans the same, THEY didn't vote for Trump... whenever it is a woman I shake my head real hard. There is a reason "Not all men" is a bullshit line. We have to assume all Americans are dangerous.

2025 is dead, welcome 2026, long may you reign (or at least for a year). What is your goal for gaming in 2026? My own is to write at least 1 new one shot adventure per month, to keep exiting stories coming at my table.

"HAZBIN HOTEL" is a fun explicit case study in a "new media project for young people" still hitting a bullseye with established critics via subtle, almost imperceptible sleights of hand like: "Our coolest recurring dude is an older guy who explicitly hates new media and dunks on everyone else"

2025 is almost behind us, and although a lot of the year was a struggle, and a lot of my life got rough, it also saw a new door open towards the end of the year that put me in what I think is a really good position for seeing a really great 2026. First time since 2019 things are looking up.
