We don’t spend enough time discussing how the entire MAGA movement is kept afloat by the constant threats of stochastic terrorism orchestrated by the president of the United States.
Congress, the courts, much of the media … all kept in line by the mob boss and his army of anonymous goons.
“I’m 84 years old. Threats against my life expectancy are kind of hollow. I don’t have much time anyway. I’m more concerned that our democracy is at risk because of the trends against the rule of law.” www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol...

I think a lot about this. I'd never played Deus Ex before until recently, and it's in some ways depressing as hell to see this masterwork that's functionally never going to be replicated? Mostly because nobody is able to work at the fidelity necessary for it who can still get the necessary funding?
When I left 2K Marin in 2013 and went indie, this statement (from a Rock Paper Shotgun guest piece about Deus Ex written by my friend and former colleague JP LeBreton) was seared into my mind.

You're never going to believe this but fellow humans are a powerful way to discuss emotions and detoxify ourselves from the increasingly toxic AI riddled internet, and they'll even tell you if you are being an ass. Try friends today.

I want 2026 to be the year where we collectively stop rewarding negativity. Stop bringing others down to bring yourself up. Stop bringing attention to genuinely awful people. Stop ignoring people bringing positive changes to the world. We need more kindness and empathy. I’m dead serious

Most of all, drop that "we're fucked" mindset. Time to leave that doomerism bullshit behind and focus on doing good.

Gender affirming care for trans people is safe, effective, and has a lower regret rate (4%) than almost any major medical procedure. It saves lives. These are facts. The right's talking-points are recycled "they are coming for your children!" scare tactics well over fifty years old at this point.
