I read something awhile back about a project to make a community run internet via mesh network. In tuscon, I think

ACAB includes the Zootopia rabbit

Even less white space

Trotsky’s take on the peasantry was wrong af though

Ok, so I was in the UK a couple years ago, and while I have some pretty stark disagreements with our Trot friends, it was the trot orgs who were most adamantly pro-trans.

Most UK ML parties are still on the “being queer is bourgeois decadence” thing, in 2025.

JKR will be the Lenin of CPGB-ML before anything else

You’re missing “Arguing on Facebook” followed by, “Still Arguing on Facebook, after Zucc replaces all your friends with robots”

A Muslim man who just became mayor of NYC and was attacked by his political opponents for “being friends with hasan piker who said America deserved 9/11”, definitely knows what he’s doing with this tweet lmao

Honestly? The kids cartoons are kind of a beacon of good storytelling in Star Wars, nowadays.

Obviously they’re for children, and some arcs are boring filler, so YMMV, but they’re also able to tell these smaller, off the beaten path, stories that you don’t get elsewhere.

I said this in another comment that Star War’s big problem has been that It’s very in love with itself. It’s a self-referential fever dream that feels more like a child smashing their toys together, than a real show.

So ironically, the shows for children don’t have that problem quite so much. For instance, there’s an episode of The Bad Batch where a bunch of miners rise up and kill their boss. That shit rules! That’s a fun story that happens to take place in the Star Wars universe, and isn’t concerned with the fact that it’s Star Wars

I really liked Andor, but that’s because it was trying to be a political spy thriller first, and a star wars show second.

Most Disney Star Wars is really in love with the fact that its Star Wars, to the point that it feels like a child smashing their toys together, than an actual show or movie

Remember when Covid happened, and suddenly every normie was using Zoom, instead of existing, well-established platforms?

This is good UI design, and the fact that Steam hardware is making Linux more common and usable is also very cool.

But Idk, people were rightfully dragging Gabe Newell over his insane fucking yacht.

Appreciating some neat tech stuff, and hating capitalism aren’t mutually exclusive

All leftists are my comrades!

Except for those damn Trostskyists!

Who am I?

I find that a lot of straight liberals will practically foam at the mouth to identify a Bad removed that they can be homophobic towards.

Remember all of those homoerotic images of Trump and Putin that libs loved to be openly disgusted by?

Is that supposed to be Hibari-kun?

TIL Fred Durst has opinions on geopolitics

an entirely new language

Esperanto gang, rise up!

Ok but those Call of Duty games for the DS were always so interesting to me. The attempt to take such a bombastic console experience and squeeze it onto a handheld often produced janky results, but it was a charming kind of jank

I was on a forum, back in the day, focused on weird, or otherwise niche DS ports, and those games were easily the most popular.

They even had tournaments with the Developers, which was neat

Wouldn’t a better joke be Tito? Nationalism was explicitly banned in Yugoslavia, whereas various left-wing nationalisms were cultivated in the USSR. Differing positions on the national question were part of what led to the Yugo-Soviet split

Will there be white Monster Energy’s and deep dish pizza?
