These trees were a gift from the Japanese and the oldest in DC

When Nats Park was built, the owners purchased cherry trees specifically bred to bloom early

Planted them in the outfield and cared for them lovingly

Like these trees have been cared for for years and years

They would early in time for Opening Day

When the entire city was covered in pink blooms

Thousands of Americans plan trips to DC to see them

And the monuments

And tour the WH entering through the majestic East Wing

On tours that were managed by the First Lady’s office

Trump doesn’t give a damn about history, heritage, tradition, relationships with foreign allies

If he did, he wouldn’t have unceremoniously torn down the East Wing

Is there ANYONE in DC who will stop this bullshit?

ANYONE

Zero dollars in funding and just 3 votes shy of advancing.

We really could win if people banded together and fought back.

@SubToOptimus USA USA USA!!!

[GOG.COM @GOGcom]

Even if a game vanishes from the GOG storefront, it never leaves your library.

Exactly as digital ownership ought to be.

[Optimus ⛩️ @SubToOptimus]

Disappointing news but not surprising.

You will own nothing and be happy.

[Rino🚀 @RinoTheBouncer]

Thank you for ruining the video game industry for us, and all the passion that we had🚀

It isn’t the economy
It isn’t BiG b0oBs or shaved hair
It isn’t “entitled gamers”

It is your own greed that will be your own undoing, and you will have zero sympathies from us over it.

Maybe the industry does indeed need new big players, because clearly you have zero respect for this craft or the players who made you🎤

[Swany @SwanyPlaysGames]

I’m getting pretty fed up with the gaming industry / tech / AI.

The world has been going to shit and it only keeps getting worse.

[Zeroslost @Idontexistalr]

This is so fucking disingenuous. This bill would make every website and app be forced to make it's users age verify, or face consequences. Not just porn websites.

Infact, nowadays most (if not all) porn websites already force you to age verify in America.

Also, most tech-titans are backing you people for the sake of surveillance. You're not tricking anyone with a working brain. You all want mass surveillance and censorship.

This isn't "for the kids".

If the government actually cared about kids, then the people involved with Epstein would be arrested.

[Angry Staffer @Angry_Staffer]

“If the Democrats win, Congress will do its job again” is a wild message from the current Speaker of the House

They are so afraid of you realizing there are politicians who can and actually want to make your life better and not just collect checks from lobbyists and corporations.

@SubToOptimus Does the digital coded “physical copy” have same rules of ownership compared to digital copies? Like same risk of losing permanent access to the game bc you have no physical disc?

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.

Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.

Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."

Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."

Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.

They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.

One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."

Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.

That's the metered intelligence business model.

And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.

Foreign lobbyists are openly bragging about infiltrating our country and removing voices of dissent against the Israeli government.

Imagine the news cycles if China openly bragged about infiltrating our elections and determining our foreign policy.

[Rep. Dan Goldman @RepDanGoldman]

The Supreme Court just ruled that a racial gerrymandering claim must include intentional discrimination.

Tennessee Republicans have immediately responded by stopping early voting in order to split apart the only majority black district in the state.

What more do you need to show intentional discrimination?

This is Jim Crow 2.0 and cannot stand.

[Chris Towler @blkprofcct]

The fact that almost EVERY former confederate state is moving to completely eliminate Black representatives almost immediately after the SCOTUS decision should be more than enough proof that voting rights still need protection and racism is far from gone in this country.

[Think Before You Sleep @TBYSTweet]

This should be illegal. The minute they decide that the net interface for these consoles is no longer worth funding, your games are useless.

Why would anyone care about the morality of piracy when media companies constantly try to take away ownership of the stuff you purchase?

[Optimus ⛩️ @SubToOptimus]

The company building a dystopian AI superweapon used to rape Americans' Constitutional rights and usher in our version of Chinese social credit is writing manifestos on the timeline about the "technological republic", if you've been sleepwalking through this whole ordeal.

[MaӾӾell @Maxxell]

This is absolutely intentional to push people to use dynamic heads, you are correct. What's funny too is that none of these accessories are actually compatible with the Roblox dynamic heads now, because the positioning of the head is off - they probably broke well over 100,000 accessories by screwing up the head position in ALL of their conversions.

"just use accessory adjustment"

Or Roblox staff could pay attention to what they're working on, there's a thought.

Regardless, the true reason of this change is to push people to use dynamic heads, and the true reason behind the forcing of dynamic heads is to harvest data from their facial tracking software. It always comes back to DATA, one way or the other.

Roblox just put a 40 robux barrier between "dynamic head" and "full face mask to hide dynamic head".

You will use the dynamic head and face tracking, and you will be happy.

A freeze and 100+ degrees within the same week. Texas, you are drunk.
