@brian_armstrong @LeaderJohnThune Why should we do anything to further @coinbase ‘s interests when your company is still bringing in visa workers as cheap labor instead of hiring Americans?

This is why people stopped going to malls and now just buy everything they need on Amazon.

Many states could have been saved from invasion if every liberal transplant that came there got relentlessly bullied and ridiculed by every person they encountered when they first showed up.

@KIRSoccer @ClayTravis @EnesFreedom @WNBA That’s pretty bigoted that you’re denying his identity and requiring surgery to conform to patriarchal, cis-normative standards. You are a small minded bigot. Do better.

Nearly 40% of children in New York State are foreign-born or the children of migrants. Of that group, about 85% are migrants from the third world. The education debate (like so many others) often disguises the real debate.

After two former first round NBA draft picks declared for @wnba draft, the WNBA’s commissioner says the league will be meeting to review what a woman is for purposes of league eligibility. These meetings need to be streamed live. That’s must see TV. https://t.co/wEdwVa05Up

I don't want to go to my polling place on Election Day and see women in burkas.

That's not American and it never will be American.

@espn Stop the transphobia @WNBA

Let @EnesFreedom play!

[Altus @AltusSpero]

@EnesFreedom @WNBA Only transphobes oppose Enes’s inclusion in the @WNBA !

[Enes Kanter FREEDOM @EnesFreedom]

After careful consideration and reviewing the current eligibility guidelines,
I’m officially declaring myself a @WNBA prospect.

If simply declaring who you are is all that’s required, then I meet every single requirement necessary to compete in the WNBA.

My team and I have carefully examined the WNBA’s eligibility criteria and governing framework surrounding self-identification and inclusion. Based on the current guidelines, I can and am officially declaring my eligibility for the upcoming WNBA draft in April 2027.

I know my presence on the court will stir up strong opinions.
I am definitely not here to mock, make fun of, or disrespect any community or personal choices.
I’m simply asking that the current rules be applied equally to everyone — the rules that represent the very values many WNBA players and coaches have publicly advocated for.
My team and I are prepared to ensure these guidelines are applied equally, consistently, and without exception, and I look forward to the #WNBA honoring its stated principles.

See you at training camp.

To clarify, “in effect” means the termination is now in effect and not held up by court order. Here is an updated chart.

Blizzard was a game developer that was so popular that they used to have their own annual ComicCon style convention where fans from all over the world would come to meet the developers of their favorite games and learn what new stuff was coming.

Then, an unhappy faction who didn’t like the “frat house” atmosphere made a bunch of largely false allegations at the height of #MeToo. Lawyers were brought in to investigate, and they found email chains discussing the “Cosby Suite,” which was the hospitality suite at the convention hotel that Blizzard developers named for its carpets that looked like a Bill Cosby sweater.

These emails were from years before Cosby’s sexual assault conviction, but they were considered damning at the time and it was insinuated in the media that the men on the email chain were committing rape in the “Cosby Suite,” entirely because of the name.

Everyone on the email chain — men who had worked at Blizzard for decades and built the Warcraft, Diablo and StarCraft franchises — were fired in disgrace over this.

Alex Afrasiabi had his name stripped out of World of Warcraft. An Overwatch character named after veteran Blizzard developer Jesse McCree was renamed in the game. These guys did absolutely nothing wrong except joke with their friends in emails they never expected to be exposed as part of a witch hunt.

In the wake of the mass firings of veterans game designers, the entire culture of Blizzard changed as an institution, and the games changed too — for the worse. “World of Warcraft” became a cozy fantasy coffee shop game. “Overwatch” became a gay pride game. Nobody would go to a convention these days to celebrate these games or the people who now work on them.

The false sexual assault allegations were a pretense for a crowd of disgruntled nonbinary weirdos to seize the greatest game studio in the United States, but without the people they purged and replaced, they could not uphold Blizzard’s once legendary standard of quality and the studio collapsed into irrelevance.

When you see gamers celebrating mass layoffs at game studios, it is because things like this happened across the gaming industry. The hobby was conquered and transformed by people who believed gaming needed to change. But they changed it into something nobody wants to pay for, and now they’re all losing their jobs.

It costs us ~ $40K a year, K-12 to educate a single one of their anchor babies

Seems like a great deal

With some very minor exceptions, the data center buildout is happening in red states (historically some purple but on a go forward basis, red).

The data center question is entirely a red on red issue. It’s impossible to build in blues and power is expensive, hence no one is even planning to build there

🚨this is why the left is poisoning the well on datacenters 🚨

They have nothing at stake. Nothing to gain, nothing to lose. They will run the Greta / fracking playbook on DCs.

The right must avoid being useful idiots for the left and China at all costs.

By all means, debate the merit of the DC buildout. But don’t fall into the slopulist trap of being against them “because everyone is” or because the left manufactures consent via the press and NGOs.

The left is not participating in the DC buildout; they should not have a seat at the table. Assume that they will try to play spoiler to ruin what is a massive reindustrialization opportunity in Americas heartland, creating skilled jobs that have been missing for so long. It’s entirely rational for the left to ruin this for red America. Don’t let them.
