This is a real video from the official White House account on a war that is currently killing people. I don’t know how the US is going to come back from this.
The post was β€œJUSTICE THE AMERICAN WAY. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ πŸ”₯”

The Most Chilling Detail in the U.S. Attack on an Iranian Naval Ship The Iranian warship was taking part in an international exercise with many other countriesβ€”including the United States.

This is a chilling crime. A shame on our country. The Iranian ship was unarmed. The US knew this. The sailors were murdered by our navy, and the survivors were left to die at sea.

obviously, it slayed me that they misused the term 'negative feedback loop' over and over, at least 3 times.

THE 2028 GLOBAL INTELLIGENCE CRISIS A Thought Exercise in Financial History, from the Future

not sure if this is a real account (@citrini.bsky.social), but...
i enjoyed this scenario modelling, just for the thoughtfulness, regardless of how accurate it will turn out to be.

Cairn's Beautiful Search for a Mountaineer's Purpose A conversation with The Game Bakers about life's unanswerable questions, making the sublime Cairn, and crafting a video game with supplΓ©ment d’Òme.

Cairn is one of the most remarkable games of the past 10 years, let alone 2026. It was a delight to chat with The Game Bakers about their sublime climbing game, and how, in an increasingly crowded market, they stick by a simple philosophy: "We make games like we cook" remapradio.com/articles/cai/

I speak with Harvey Smith and Ricardo Bare about the creation of Deus Ex: Invisible War. ("I get a lot of interview requests for Deus Ex 1. I don't get them for Invisible War.")

Also, an article I've been wanting to write for a long time: how speedruns and speedrunners actually work, in detail.

all eyes are on the horrible attacks on our society & democracy - pepper sprayed little girls, beaten workers, people murdered in the streets - which is as it should be. but the destruction of country at the hands of this regime is hitting SO MANY different areas at once. med, sci, edu, enviro, etc.

One more thing: Plemons does Shatner in a way that is uncanny. Not because it's an imitation, but because it isn't, exactly. Close enough to evoke, but never really crossing over into comedy or absurdity. Almost at that point, but just shy; almost subliminal, like a Shatner from another universe.

It warms my heart that Black Mirror is to a generation of future creatives what the Twilight Zone was to many of us.

Like certain episodes of the Twilight Zone, this does such a good job of showing why no limited, flawed being should have absolute power, especially a partially mature nerd.
