@ckunzelman.bsky.social My friends and I went camping earlier this month (Red Top Mountain) and played Glassy Eye orally around the campfire. We enjoyed the game. Thanks. 🙂

EXCLUSIVE: So far it's been unclear what proof Rockstar Games has to justify its firing of 34 union members, who it claims were leaking "confidential information in a public forum".

PMG has now seen some of the messages which contributed to this decision being made.

Going on 4 years with mine, and feeling good about it
Worth noting that as phones have gotten more expensive — flagship phones are all $800+ these days — carriers have kept monthly payments down by stretching out the term. The standard option now is 36-month financing (used to be 24), so why *wouldn't* you hold on to a phone for at least 3 years?
www.cnbc.com/2025/11/23/h... "please, buy new phone. the economy is dying" is an incredible gaslight

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

"They have a degree in underwater basket-weaving" is meant to be a statement that someone lacks useful, marketable skills.

The phrase *may* originate from a 1956 article on traditional Inuit/Yupik weaving technique where bark remains submerged between stages of weaving, to keep strips pliable.

I vaguely knew about this time capsule room in #Atlanta, but this treatment was all I needed to understand it. Fantastic work as usual, @natedimeo.bsky.social.

Why do we bash 'deathtrap' fortresses full of swinging blades, man-serpents, and giant rolling balls; but we never question if the chosen hero simply had bad vibes? Or is just unpleasant to be around?

I checked several times and never saw anything, sadly. It felt too cold to hang out, which feels silly compared to the splendor of the natural world.

I have said many times that working on Tested was like documenting a twisted game of wack-a-mole where the same bad ideas pop up over and over with new little costumes on. And here we are again www.theguardian.com/sport/2025/n...

Meetup's UX update also includes bonus pay screens, and this one doesn't even have a working ❌ to click! Amazing work.

In a few years I can't wait to be forced to find another platform after this one is hollowed out.

I'm so disappointed in 8 Democrats' betrayal for nearly nothing in return. I am surprised it wasn't one of mine. Which makes me wonder what those other 8 fear so much that my senators in a deep red state did not.

Could just be a skill issue. #gapol

Waiting for a very delayed flight to Atlanta & the pilot (Scott!) has become everyone's best friend, hanging out amongst the people. He's let us know that Atlanta is only allowing 30 flights an hour, when it's usually 120.

Obviously frustrating but also enjoying how much Scott is relishing this.

I was at a drone metal show when the NYC election was called and briefly felt like I'd left my body. Mamdani is my age, another immigrant, someone who actually likes New York, a person that feels familiar and attuned to the greatness + promise of our city. Folks turning out for him is so hopeful!
