- Reposted by Smeefus Smonkuscan't say which i find more appalling, remnick handing him a "fair enough" on the left and right being equally antisemitic or saying there was "no immigration policy" under dems. either way, super embarrassing for remnick to get steamrolled this hard by the right's pre-eminent midwit

- Reposted by Smeefus SmonkusWe've only been aware of Trump's racism since a 1973 article about his real estate company refusing the rent apartments to black people, the first ever mention of his name in the NYT. That's why his Obama meme comes as a total shock. Who knew?

- Reposted by Smeefus SmonkusI am certain that whenever someone posts about “gatekeeping art” or whatever, they’re talking about posting drawings online for clicks. They never mean arranging rocks in the back yard. They never mean whistling to yourself and finding a tune that makes you happy. They never mean napkin doodles.

- Reposted by Smeefus SmonkusOn a similar note, as Mamdani continues to notch W after W you’re going to start seeing opinion pieces about how this could never work in any city other than New York, etc., etc. Do not engage!

- Reposted by Smeefus SmonkusJust gonna say since we're already talking about unionizing game writers: hey, maybe let us localizers in on those talks, too, because it's pretty fucking rough out there, even in AAA. I'd probably have three times as many credits if we were unionized and I'm one of the lucky ones with any at all.

- Reposted by Smeefus SmonkusWe've normalized it all. We normalized kiddie rape with the Epstein Files. No one is being punished. We're normalizing the Gestapo and concentration camps. We talk about bodycams for murderers and less money for kid prisons. We re-elected the guy who did J6. 2009 is happening with crypto now.

Media coverage should be instead focusing on why TPUSA keeps platforming people who are supposedly at odds with their values. This is a story about the constellation of conservative media and what it says vs. what it does.
