For @remapradio.bsky.social, a story about a group of Chinese game developers who came to me with a unique pitch: if you write about us, it might help us stay in the country. What is home? My piece on the current intersection of immigration policy and video games: remapradio.com/articles/the...

They benefit from the antisemitism and racism, because the infighting is a distraction and gives them strength.

In this interview Schumer says he agrees with Trump’s decision to pull $400 million from Columbia. A university in his own state. And he’s unconcerned about the unlawful arrest of Mahmoud Khalil, one of his constituents.
He is a traitor who needs to resign.

I get really irked when I see people post “indies will save us” or “the laid off devs should go indie” THERE IS NO MONEY publishers are cancelling contracts, angel investors/venture capital don’t want small returns. I think they mean hobbyists with a day job working doubletime & that is a rough ask

I’m calling about NYU Langone’s reported cancellation of gender-affirming care appointments for trans patients under 19.

It's fucking pathetic, sad and enraging to see no one in the government stand up and fight for the trans citizens of America.
‼️ The State Department has REMOVED TQIA+ on their page of recommendations for queer travelers. This page yesterday said "LGBTQIA+" and now just says "LGB".
The federal government is trying to erase trans people from existence.
