They loved Marjorie Taylor Greene, now they hate her.
They loved Thomas Massie, now they hate him.
They loved Lauren Boebert, now they hate her.
They made fun of Biden for nodding off ("Sleepy Joe), now they ignore Trump outright falling asleep.
They put "I Did That" Biden stickers on high gas prices, now they ignore gas prices being even higher.
They bragged about Trump being the no wars President, now they support war.
They bashed Biden for sending money to Ukraine, now they ignore Trump sending money to both Ukraine and Israel.
They demanded the Epstein files, now they bash anyone asking for the Epstein files.
To be a MAGA is to be a slave.
Not physically, but mentally.
They stand for nothing.
We're up against people who stand for nothing.
And with the most misplaced confidence you've ever seen, they try to tell us whats-what.
We shouldn't even acknowledge these people.
The Trump supporters that remain are mentally too far gone.
I don't even want to argue with them anymore.

Too on point not to share. This is great, but too bad the Orange Felon’s enablers won’t let him see it.
This Australian's reply to #Trump's rant about “NATO not being there for America” is perfect.
"Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
'NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your f----- mouth."

WOW
A website is DOCUMENTING Israel’s crimes with GEOLOCATION, dates, categories of crimes, and footage of the incidents themselves.
One click and you can see EXACTLY what Israel did.
An enormous digital archive built for ACCOUNTABILITY.

Today, I decided to touch some grass for most of the day and figured, what the hell, lets see how many people are in protest of the "nothing burger" that was posted and see how many people were streaming Sea of Thieves.
To my surprise, some of the most "outraged" people, that were in "complete protest" are, in fact, streaming the game. I'm confused.
We are for once all united in protest, wanting some reform/change with how things are handled for the future and for certain people to be held accountable for the vile thing that happened in our beloved Sea of Thieves.
By streaming the game, you weaken the leverage of the collective group (the community) efforts allowing Rare to continue operations and ultimately undermine what this could of achieved.
Because you would rather have some good metrics for your Twitch, there is an increased likelihood that nothing will change. You are showing them (Rare), they have all the bargaining chips and power. That no matter what happens, you will still play/stream their game.
"But Mix? The Charity Efforts!?"
Choose to support whichever charity you believe in, but seriously, do it in a different game there are thousands to choose from.
Even if its just for one day. I think we can all avoid playing Sea of Thieves for a bit.
He may be banned, but this is not over.
Bruno was elevated to Boatswain because certain individuals brought his name up to the Community Management team for promotion in the first place.
He was then further endorsed by various Boatswains, Mods, and Community Managers. Some of whom KNEW about Bruno’s inappropriate jokes and behavior toward a minor, yet still gave their approval without even looking into whether @HeSlashThem was fit to represent the Sea of Thieves community.
@j0toro, @Taaaaamas, and @mopwielder were aware of these concerns, but chose to dismiss them as “drama” while defending the situation with statements like “people can learn and grow” or “we shouldn’t let bullies dictate which way we go”
Framing concerns about inappropriate behavior toward a minor simply as “drama” while labeling those raising concerns about it as “nasty voices” is concrete proof that these people helping lead a major community like #SeaOfThieves, lack the experience and professionalism needed for their roles.
Again, to be abundantly clear, this is not directed at every Mod, Boatswain, or CM. This is directed at those who happen to be these, but have repeatedly shown poor judgment, awful behavior, and forever damaged the image of Sea of Thieves in the process.
The boatswain system needs to go. Elevating regular players into this strange in-between role, where they act as representatives of the game (while having friendships with members of Rare’s team) creates this super confusing and unhealthy dynamic that allows players to be in positions they don't need to be in in the first place.
Not everyone who speaks against you is a bad person, and not everyone who stands beside you is a good one. People raise concerns because they genuinely care about the game and its community. Others go along with the status quo simply to stay close to Rare, maintain influence, or protect their position. That behavior needs to end. Immediately.
So, until the Community Managers and Mods involved step down from their roles at @RareLtd & @SeaOfThieves, I cannot view this community as the safe and welcoming space it once was.
Make your voices known. Unapologetically stand up to this behavior.
I've read the Epstein files.
What’s inside them is horror and evil beyond language.
Pedophilia, including newborns.
Gang rapes.
Cannibalism.
Ritual Satanic Abuse.
Kidnapping.
Human Trafficking.
Treating innocent children as sex toys, food, and cattle.
Code words like pizza.
Photographs of molds taken from real children’s body parts used as decorations.
Famous people.
Sick parties.
Auctions.
Major corporations involved.
Government leaders.
Law enforcement protecting them.
Investigations obstructed.
Evidence buried or destroyed.
Sweetheart deals granted.
Victims silenced or disappeared with threats, NDAs, settlements, and intimidation.
This was financed and laundered through shell companies and complex money trails.
It's international.
Multiple countries.
Multiple jurisdictions.
Not one island, but many.
Not one network, but dozens.
Recruitment pipelines where children were groomed, coerced, and forced to recruit other children.
Abuse discussed casually.
Suffering treated like logistics.
Blackmail.
Documentation used as leverage.
Powerful people insulated by proximity to politics, royalty, and intelligence-adjacent circles.
Out of thousands of children referenced, named, or implied, only around thirty are accounted for.
The rest are missing.
Erased.
Sick, evil people laughing and joking about what they’ve done.
Planning for similar future events.
This isn't conspiracy.
This is documentated, and it's still happening.
You have never seen evil like this before.
It makes combat look civilized.
What's in these files is so evil, so grotesque, so deliberate, so organized, that everyone involved must be held accountable.
Not some.
Not a few.
ALL of them.
Your politics do not matter here.
Democrats and Republicans are named.
Celebrities and CEOs are named.
Corporations are named.
Defending any of them over the safety of children is complicity.
We must stand together, united beyond party, fame, or wealth, to end this evil and protect every child.
WE ARE NOT ANGRY ENOUGH.
WARNING: If you read these files, you will never be the same.
We MUST demand justice, or it will keep happening.
David sits in his car. The engine is off, but he hasn't moved for ten minutes.
He is parked in the driveway of the house he pays for, staring at the front door. Inside, the lights are warm. He can see the silhouette of his wife, Sarah, moving in the kitchen. He can see his daughter watching TV. It looks like a perfect life.
But David isn't soaking it in. He is hyperventilating.
He grips the steering wheel until his knuckles turn white. He is taking these ten minutes to put the "mask" back on.
At work today, he lost a major client. The company is downsizing. He might not have a job in three months. The panic is a physical weight on his chest, crushing his lungs. He wants to walk inside, fall into Sarah’s arms, and say, "I’m scared. I don’t know if I can keep holding this up. I need you to tell me it’s going to be okay."
But he doesn't.
He remembers three years ago. His mother died. He broke down in front of Sarah. He cried. Really cried. He saw the look in her eyes shift. From comfort to fear.
The "Rock" had crumbled, and she didn't know how to look at him anymore. The attraction faded for months.
He learned his lesson: He is allowed to be sad, but he is not allowed to be helpless.
So, in the darkness of the driveway, David swallows the panic. He fixes his tie. He checks his reflection in the rearview mirror and practices the smile. The "I'm fine" smile.
He opens the car door and walks inside.
"Hey, honey! You're late," Sarah says, not looking up from her phone. "Did you remember to transfer the tuition fees? The school sent a reminder."
She didn't bother to ask how he is.
"Yeah, I did it," David says, kissing her cheek. She accepts the kiss, but she doesn't lean into it. That moment, he felt like he is just part of the furniture. A utility provider that keeps the lights on.
Later that night, in bed, David reaches out. He runs his hand down her arm, starving for a touch that isn't transactional. He just wants to feel desired. He wants to know he matters.
Sarah sighs. A heavy, annoyed sigh. "David, I'm exhausted. The kids were a nightmare today. Can we just sleep?"
He pulls his hand back immediately, humiliated. The "Beggar Dynamic" kicks in. He feels gross for even asking. He turns his back to her, staring at the wall.
Lying there, in the house he built, next to the woman he loves, David realizes the terrifying truth:
If he died tomorrow, they would miss him.
But if he went broke tomorrow, hmm...
He realizes he isn't loved unconditionally like his daughter or the dog. He is on a performance contract. As long as the payments clear, he is allowed to stay.
He closes his eyes. The panic returns. But he stays silent.
Because the only safe space he has left is inside his own head.
The official Starladder Budapest 2025 Major is going to be epic! 🔥
While we wait, I got inspired by the amazing MVM DOME arena and designed some concept stickers. What do you think? ✨

@S0nicbob I had a thought about the new custom servers:
If the "cinematic camera" could be a 4 person "crew" in the custom server list before launching, it would allow for a full 6 ship server and a group of casters for events and tournaments.
As it is right now for such events, taking from @CutlassCrusades, the casters and rowboaters crew on a galleon that parks at the hideout.
If they had the option to have the rowboaters on a sloop, and the casters and staff in the cinema camera "crew", it would allow for smoother casting and overall a much more entertaining experience for viewers.
Additionally, the cinema camera having an option to snap to all players individually on the server for critical moments in a fight would be an amazing feature to tack onto the idea above
Roblox DOES NOT care about predators on their site!
This is UNDENIABLE proof of it, and this should outrage everyone.

Shirah still remains one of the most unprofessional individuals I've ever had the displeasure of encountering. I cannot believe someone with the emotional intelligence of a teenager can have a job as a community manager without repercussions.

@SeaOfThieves
Can we please be transparent? In the new patch notes you say you have updated the reporting system to include movement exploits (i.e. Map tech and ladder launching), however at around 6m 20s in this video (https://t.co/6dZd8tROkQ) your team explicitly says that such exploits are NOT bannable. Which one is it? 🤷
i can't believe @SeaOfThieves official twitter would follow a twitter page for a discord alliance that charges for priority queue access on their alliance servers :( TOS breaches aren't mentioned in the pirate code I guess
