Why I’m launching a feminist video games website in 2026
I’ve been a games journalist since 2007, but still there isn’t much video games coverage that feels like it’s specifically for people like me. So I’m creating a home for it: Mothership

Feds who blinded a young protester by shooting a less-lethal projectile at close range in Santa Ana shot a second man in the face that night, Britain Rodriguez, 31, blinding him too.

With arms linked and snow falling, Minneapolis ICE protesters dance as ICE agents retreat back. "Nah nah nah, hey hey hey, goodbye!" WATCH ⬇️
This story is so fascinating because something pretty similar happened to me. Not getting contacted to issue a correction for a story I hadn't written, but once I had to contact Muck Rack once for aggregating stories I hadn't written, but had my name on them.
Ian emailed me to let me know a bunch of people sent donations to his site so thank you to people that did that.

I literally worked the cash register at my mid-Missouri college dining hall job Election Night in 2016. Things are bad now, but I would not ever go back.
I’m sorry y’all. I won’t be posting photos of me from 2016. That’s just not my ministry.
For anyone who doesn't see the vision! Even the best of the best has done it! 😤
Okay, it has happened. My resume is now hot pink, and I really feel like this was the right decision. 😌
Folks should know what kind of reporter they're getting with me!

I know nothing about football, but my aunt, who is a big fan of the Bears, has been cycling between screaming joyfully and cussing at the TV in the other room, and y'all seem happy on here, so I'm going to assume they won.
She smiles at the man who shoots her and says she isn't mad at him. Clearly initiates the effort to leave when the aggressive agents arrive.
The question now (not that this was in question) isn't who's telling the truth. It's when DHS had this video and knew that what they were saying was a lie.
🚨 NEW VIDEO 👇🏽This puts an end to all the lies. Horrific.
They were having a calm exchange seconds before he murdered Renee Good, and she was barely moving and clearly avoiding him.
Stop the lies.

a major american city is being forced to close schools because armed government agents are raiding and pepper spraying and terrorizing children and teachers for social media content
Absolutely ridiculous, but unsurprising, comments from Jesse Waters. How do either of those two things justify her being shot and killed by an ICE agent? In and of themselves?
Jesse Watters highlights that Renee Nicole Good, the woman killed by ICE, had "pronouns in her bio" and "leaves behind a lesbian partner and a child from a previous marriage"

what this should make clear to everyone in this country is that it does not matter who you are, there's no "it could never happen to me"
you can be a white woman who drives around with stuffed animals in her car, and they will still kill you in cold blood and call you a domestic terrorist
