Update: Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a nearly blind Rohingya refugee, came to America seeking safety. Border Patrol left him alone in the cold outside a closed coffee shop. He was found dead five days later. His death has been ruled a homicide.

Amanda Nelson has recapped the mind boggling successes that.... wait.... sorry... failures, Trump's mind-boggling failures for the week.
Our country did better when he could still putz around a golf course.
Oh & Epstein isn't going away, no matter what he blows up or tears down.
750,000 deaths in Africa alone, all thanks to Elon taking a chainsaw to USAID. Why do we keep going? Because there need to be consequences for the harm, for one. #TeslaTakedown
(around photos of Jeff Bezos and an Amazon employee) Jeff Bezos made $90 billion in profit... because of their hard work. Amazon's profits went UP 45%, but its taxes went DOWN 87%. Thanks to Trump's "Big Ugly Bill," Amazon paid just $1.2 billion in taxes (down from $9 billion last year). Hardworking Americans are struggling, while Republicans hand massive tax breaks to the Epstein class.
This movie was low-key fire 😁

“NO KINGS.” Three panels in punky bright colors with some grungy textures. The first panel shows a chessboard with all pieces except the kings. In the second, a hand of playing cards forms a royal flush but the king's card is blank. The third panel shows the board game box of The King Is Dead.
New comic! No kings, please.

🚨 THIS JUST IN: With over 100 protests still to come, we can already estimate that at least 8 million people participated in No Kings protests today.
That makes No Kings 3 the largest single day of protest in American history. #NoKings
Not wanting a king in America is one of the most foundational, patriotic, and non-partisan ideals in this country.
This is not about left versus right. It’s about whether we want to be ruled by a king or dictator, and we do not. ❌👑

The mess and roughness and uncertainty at the beginning stages of developing a game MAKE the game. I figure out where I want to go by personally making that first draft. Doing is learning. By not doing the early stages yourself, you never learn from them. That's one of the many problems with gen AI.

“If there is not a No Kings protest within 30 minutes or so of where you live, you should probably be organizing your own — both to make the point on March 28, but also to start organizing your own community for what comes next.” - Ezra

Haha yeah I've realized that I'm really good at language acquisition (at least when it comes to domain terminology), and I can learn to "talk the talk" quickly. It definitely increases perception of competence. Real competence can definitely coexist, but something to think about.
We are ✨less than $2000 from goal,✨ gang.
It’s down to the wire! We can absolutely do this in the four days we have left a fund, but we need your help!
Please throw in to help Sleeping Wizards over the finish line!

We are LESS THAN $60 AWAY from $16,000!! The goal for Sleeping Wizards is WITHIN REACH!

Please read and share. The “grassroots” support for the SAVE America Act is a lie. The campaign pushing this bill is being run by Cleta Mitchell and Scott Presler, two of the most notorious election deniers in the country.
Haha same, their wizardry is far beyond my mortal skills 😅
Ahhh that's awesome!! I love it 🤩
"What the hell did I get myself into" is a common facial expression in this industry 😅
