take this with a big grain of salt because I could be misremembering but I remember reading a Pokémon translator saying he translated a line as "soft, loamy soil" to teach kids a new word and he was right. I did learn what loamy meant from Pokémon in fact
there is almost no feedback I will reflexively ignore as a game developer but “you shouldn’t name something X because people don’t know that word” is one of them. oh no! You might learn a new word! God forbid you take away a piece of knowledge from a game that’s not a brand of gun or some shit lol

Think about it another way, this operation required virtually everything in America’s advanced warfare toolkit, deployed over five months, to execute a 3 hour raid against a country whose military is held together with duct tape and revolutionary rhetoric
The surprise invasion of Venezuela isn't imperial expansion driven by the dictates of capitalism; it is somehow even sicker. The Trump administration is behaving like gambling addicts chasing clout in an attention economy. Venezuela is a fucking meme stock. www.theverge.com/policy/85807...
Snatching Maduro was all about the spectacle

another aside about DHS, not only was it badly designed by morons but its just fundamentally not a normal ~interior ministry~ its a Department for Fighting The Terrorists, basically institutional PTSD manifested into the organizational culture of two of the largest paramilitary agencies in the USG
DHS in general was a bad re-org.
Give TSA and the air marshals to DOT, customs and civil immigration to state, criminal immigration enforcement to justice, the natsec shit to Justice/DoD, etc.
Only border patrol is the one that doesn’t neatly fit into any already existing cabinet portfolio.

A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.

The woman killed by ICE today was a poet. She won the 2020 Academy of American Poets, University & College Poetry Prize at Old Dominion University.
(And this is Renee from confirmed socials- a photo of a different woman with red lipstick is going around, but that was a classmate.)

I am a simple person who thinks that telling the truth about things is important. I watched the video footage of this shooting, and the killing is casual and unhurried. DHS and aligned political actors are very ready to present a story of rushed, panicked violence, and it just is not true.
NEW: At least four videos show what really happened when ICE shot a woman in Minneapolis on Wednesday.
DHS has established itself as an agency that cannot be trusted to live in or present reality.

Raju: The Speaker and others have said that this driver was weaponizing her vehicle.
AOC: Their editorializing of this event to justify a public murder is disgusting. It is horrifying. Watch it for yourself and make that assessment for yourself on which of these leaders are lying to you.

The sheer number of videos of the shooting is horrific, but in the vein of what @prisonculture.bsky.social has been saying, it proves how many people cared enough to show up where ICE was and record them. It wasn't just one or two legal observers, and when Good was shot, they didn't abandon her.

This is heartbreaking, and also upsetting to see it amplified instantaneously when video shows her wife crying and talking about their kid at school. We have no idea what kind of family dynamics are at play and a same-sex partner is vulnerable to being muscled out of the story, so we should use care
