Donald Trump promised to free a major drug trafficker tonight. Think anyone in the media will bother to ask his bootlicker endorsers in the Fraternal Order of Police how they feel about this? Will the media even cover that Trump is promising to pardon a major drug and sex trafficker?

Girl with peanut allergy ‘thrown off flight by captain’ via @darnell (Flipboard) 📰 https://www.yahoo.com/news/girl-peanut-allergy-thrown-off-144929061.html

@darnell @darnell That is messed up. Although I do question why the family needed to prevent everyone from eating anything that could have nuts instead of simply wearing a mask. An N95 can easily block peanut dust. We are not talking about some type of microscopic virus. Regardless, the captain was out of line.

I think Activision has been just as consequential to gaming as Nintendo.

Perhaps more so, in fact. They popularized the notion of 3rd party publishing.

@atomicpoet I’m curious, are pinball machines and their arcade game predecessors considered by the gaming community as part of the video game lineage? Or does the gaming community view the history of video games as only going back to the dawn of the computer age?

@atomicpoet I realize this is probably a lot like asking if games are sports. But growing up with video arcades that included space invaders, asteroids, pac man, and pinball machines, they all seem to be connected to me. Video game consoles were just an evolution from PC gaming, which were an evolution from arcades.

@atomicpoet I guess I am asking as I don’t often see people who talk about retro gaming also talk about the pre-computer era.

Going after the libertarians is a sign that Trump’s shit is getting very messy.

@Green_Footballs The interesting thing is it gives permission for the media to cover the libertarian candidates just as much as they cover RFK. I doubt they will give them any oxygen, but it could end up undermining Trump.
