They added a toggle at some point when creating a sim so you could be a male who could get pregnant, if you wanted a sim to be a trans man, for example.

At least I think that’s vanilla. I have so many mods its hard to remember anymore.

Men could get pregnant in Sims 4 for awhile, I think. I guess the bug is it that neighborhood stories aren’t working and checking if someone is in a relationship and has the ‘can be pregnant’ tag.

Well knot that shocked.

My take is that Borderlands 1 was boring, Borderlands 2 had decent game play but was held up by excellent writing and characterization and every Borderlands game since has been trying to recapture the magic of the second game but just feels hollow. They aren’t terrible, but they aren’t amazing either.

There is a lot more yikes in the article than I was expecting.

Golly, I can’t understand why younger generations aren’t having more kids.

You may be confusing democratic socialism and social democracy. They are similar in their short-term goals, but democratic socialist have fundamental economic reform as their long-term goal, while social democrats just want to curtail the social problems of capitalism.

We need like a hundred more Mamdanis and AOCs.

This is why 62% of Democrats say they need new leaders. The neoliberals (and their billionaire backers) are afraid of losing power while the ground-level party is already shifting. I’m not convinced that splitting off the progressives will be productive in our current electoral system. By the time the Democrats die off the fascists will have abolished elections. Instead I envision an outcome similar to the political realignment the GOP just finished, where a growing progressive caucus gains enough traction in primaries to force concessions from the party leadership until the neoliberals are all but pushed out entirely.

Yep, he is a Democratic Socialist which is actual socialism, unlike Social Democrats who are still capitalists.

So we revealed the limits of our precision strike capabilities to our adversaries all over the world and didn’t even achieve our mission objective? Nice move, Trump. Maybe you could reveal more of our sub locations while you’re at it.

Hopefully this heralds the realignment of the Democrats back towards a pro-worker party. Neoliberalism has failed this country for 35 years.

Quomo is a comically bad candidate and Mamdani is a very good one so I don’t think we can expect results like this in every primary. If progressives can keep finding highly qualified people I think we have a chance.

No carrier has cell service at my house but maybe they will add a sat phone.

My ACL says my TV can’t talk to the internet.

This already sort of happened in Texas where the state claimed that cities like Houston had “failed school systems” then appointed right wing toadies to run the district. In several schools they eliminated libraries, replacing them with Discipline Centers. They also make life hell for teachers or just fire them outright and replace them with unqualified ideologues.

The Republicans will definitely use that same process to deprive state and local governments of their autonomy.

Alt National Park Service is not credible, they are basically a left-targeting qanon. The organizers of the protest say they had 5 million people in attendance.

It was a hilarious piece pointing out the right problem (aging out of touch and feckless leadership not representing the people) while claiming that progressives are the real enemy they need to be standing against. Just peak NYT op-ed material. So we can see what the billionaires are worried about.

It was the first protest I’ve ever attended.

It won’t be the last.

The question is whether the California National Guard will follow Trump’s orders or Newsom’s orders in a situation where a court has ruled that Newsom is who they currently work for.

They claim he didn’t identify himself, but the video shows he clearly states “I am Senator Alex Padilla and I have questions for Ms. Noem”
