trump got a lot of goodwill out of rightly shitting on bush (and therefore jeb) for the iraq war. but his big thing was "it was stupid not to take the oil!" -- he's so cooked now he thinks that was the real lesson. if you take the oil it will be good! hes got holes in his brain

The good news about an explicitly "Might Makes Right" foreign policy, where we do whatever we want to other countries because we can, is it will benefit us without causing blowback

sorry for having consistent values around things like, i dunno, not liking violence and aggression, respecting order and the rule of law, not being racist, etc
Some Democrats hate that their party is largely positioning itself in opposition to the operation that resulted in Maduro's capture.

"Everything Trump touches must be bad according to the base," one House Dem told @axios.com

Said another: "It looks weak." www.axios.com/2026/01/04/m...
"It looks weak": Some Democrats want their party to shut up and clap for Maduro's capture
"Everything Trump touches must be bad according to the base," fumed one House Democrat.

well I'm glad Joe Biden thought that standing by Israel no matter what was worth all this

At the very center of conservatism, the heart and soul of all reactionary movements, is misogyny. The control of women** is always the end goal. Racism, homophobia, etc are like out layers, misogyny is the core.

**of all ages, as we're finding out with the President's relationship to Epstein
He was of course a MAGA guy. The posts on his account that weren’t replies with AI porn of other women were barely literate Trump support.

The underlying point of the fake genAI nudes in his posts was not so that he could jerk off. One can do that quietly. His point was: “we can do this any time.”

Playing Void Stranger finally now that I got a couple of 1CC runs of ZeroRanger.

Game is a real brain-tickler. I'm not really a fan of puzzle games but this does take me back to playing Braid a billion years ago. Pretty sure Braid was the first game I ever got on Steam.

Seeing as its christmas and steam sale time I figured I should recommend some games I enjoyed this year, even though they are mostly of the old school shooty bang bang variety that nobody else likes. I've probably mentioned all these before so feel free to ignore this

Looking up your astrological sign exclusively so you can play Gradius

Been playing the Gradius Origins collection. Damn, these old games had the sauce.

And M2? They're the GODS of porting old shmups man. Anytime they work on something, it just becomes THE definitive way to play it. So nice to see the dynamic difficulty of Gradius in real time.

I REALLY liked ZeroRanger.

It's interesting how classic game design is now subversive, to the point of practically being postmodern. Mario used to have a timer that would kill the player when it ran out. Games would kill players for reasons besides "you missed the roll / parry timing."

We streamlined the game out of games.

The point of watching the game awards is to watch an industry that's bigger than hollywood make a desperate plea for prestige and legitimacy while simultaneously humiliating itself by being incredibly chintzy, tone deaf and - even by American standards - embarrassingly commercial.
