Reading a bit about indie videogame developer Santa Ragione and their latest game being blacklisted from Valve's Steam platform. I think there is a lot of valid and nuanced discussion to be had there; though I think people are painting this awfully simplistically in some ways.

BUT the internet comments in the vein of: "Games should be allowed to portray anything just like TV/Films/Books" kinda crack me up.

I'm like: "Tell me you haven't heard of queer writers unable to get their works published/produced, without telling me you haven't heard of queer writers unable to get their works published/produced."

@trashHeap Also American TV would never show either the original scene or the modified scene the developer described, so there’s that.




Putin aide Yuri Ushakov called the leaked chat with U.S. envoy Witkoff “very unusual,” blaming WhatsApp and hinting someone wanted it exposed. He claimed neither side wanted the leak, but compared it to the Flynn case, suggesting Witkoff might have enemies in D.C.

Funny how leaks always seem to happen when shady backdoor deals with Russia are on the table.

🇺🇸🇧🇾 The #Trump administration and #Belarus are discussing the possible release of at least 100 political prisoners by Minsk soon, Reuters reports, in an ongoing rapprochement between the U.S. and the Russian ally.

The Trump admin is negotiating with Belarus to release 100+ political prisoners as part of a broader US-Minsk thaw, Reuters reports. EU allies remain wary, fearing it rewards a Kremlin-aligned regime. Some U.S. sanctions may be eased in return. Talks are ongoing, led by special envoy John Coale.


Ukraine’s General Staff confirms hits on multiple military and defense‑industry targets deep inside Russia, including the VNIIR‑Progress plant in Chuvashia, which produces navigation systems and Kometa modules used in Shahed drones, Iskander‑M and Kalibr missiles.

Additional Ukrainian drones struck a command post of Russia’s 58th Army in Vasylivka, a Tor‑M1 in Mariupol, brigade‑level ammo depots in Ocheretyne and Kamianka, and a Russian personnel concentration on the Pokrovsk front.




Macron says France and EU partners will soon finalize a plan to use frozen Russian assets to fund Ukraine, offering financial security and pressure on Moscow. A UK-France-led group with U.S. and Turkey will also shape postwar security guarantees.


The EU is drafting a backup plan to support Ukraine if a deal to use Russia’s frozen assets stalls. A bridging loan via EU borrowing may keep Kyiv afloat in early 2026, with hopes Belgium will later back the €140B reparations loan. Talks continue ahead of the Dec. 18 summit.

U.S. Representative Ted Lieu has called Steve Witkoff an “actual traitor” following revelations of his backchannel dealings with Russian officials during Ukraine peace negotiations.

"Actual traitor. Steve Witkoff is supposed to work for the United States, not Russia," he said.



Putin’s aide Yuri Ushakov confirmed Russian and Ukrainian intel held sensitive talks in the UAE, including on POW swaps. He noted a “surprise guest” appeared: U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff, who met both sides. He claimed, it was arranged with Ukraine but not Moscow.

Yeah, Witkoff’s such a surprise for you, Yuri. Almost like you wrote the script together.

The wind blows in the sails of hope when you see that the large community that helped save Julian #Assange wants to keep fighting for a more humane future, with the primary goal of stopping #Israel's criminal #Genocide.

Italian citizens and people around the world also want #Hope, because it is true that hope is not a strategy for the future, but without hope there is no strategy for the future. And Power wants us passive, desperate and helpless.

Provo a non pensare ai miei problemi e vi pongo una questione stupida... Il mio laptop è morto, mi ha servito per ben otto anni, l'ho aggiustato con il nastro adesivo, ho messo distro di linux sempre più leggere, oramai però non ce la fa più.
Ho visto che adesso il Macbook Air con M4 costa davvero "poco", e la mia vecchiaia mi dice che sono davvero stanco di configurare PC, ma è così brutto se mi prendo il computer del "nemico" e pazienza l'opensource?

Mi piacerebbe provare un Mac che non ho mai avuto il piacere di provare. Anche il mio laptop Centrino, del 2008 non si avvia più regolarmente per un problema di alimentazione da rete. Usato in dualboot con Windows e Linux mi dispiace buttarlo, perché il monitor è ancora buono e gira bene con W10 e Linux. Prima provo a sostituire i condensatori elettrolitici. Se riesco a risolvere il problema, bene, altrimenti lo sostituirò con un minipc della serie Ryzen o un Mac mini M4.

🔭 Il James Webb Space Telescope, con la sua NIRCam, ha catturato un’immagine ad altissima risoluzione della Red Spider Nebula, una affascinante nebulosa planetaria.

Tali nebulose sono immensi involucri di gas emessi da una stella che si avvia alle fasi finali della sua evoluzione, “impollinando” il cosmo di materiale pazientemente processato al suo interno.

La cosa davvero interessante è che, per la prima volta, si vedono chiaramente i suoi lobi estesi, strutture chiuse e simili a bolle che raggiungono circa 3 anni luce di diametro.

Questi lobi, tracciati dalla luce delle molecole di idrogeno, si sono formati grazie al gas espulso dalla stella centrale nel corso di migliaia di anni. Una nuova finestra sull’evoluzione delle stelle di piccola e media massa, che (oltre ad essere le più longeve) sono quelle numericamente preponderanti nel nostro splendido universo.

Rep. Mike Quigley questioned whether U.S. security guarantees under Trump can be trusted, especially by European allies. “Why would anyone believe a president who let Putin blow through six deadlines? He makes promises and nothing happens, just like the Tomahawks. He slaps tariffs on allies and tells NATO they’re on their own. It all changes month to month.”

French authorities have arrested two men and one woman on suspicion of spying and promoting pro-Russian influence. The suspects are linked to the group SOS Donbass, which claims to be a humanitarian aid organization. However, France’s DGSI security agency suspects the group is a front for espionage and destabilization efforts.

This summer, Ukrainian interlocutors in Kyiv told me that they suspected Witkoff was deceiving not only Ukraine and Europeans, but also Trump himself. Well, they were right.

Ukraine’s Border Guard Service showed its helicopter pilots hunting down Shahed drones. One of them, Oleksii Doronenkov, has over 300 confirmed kills. Just two years ago, he hadn’t even trained as a pilot. Now, he flies night missions almost daily, tracking and destroying drones to protect civilians on the ground.

Ukrainian Special Operations Forces eliminated a Russian sabotage group in Pokrovsk. SSO operators set up an ambush along their route, killing four. Three were taken out as they tried to enter a high‑rise, and the fourth was spotted and eliminated while attempting to retreat and fire at a Ukrainian drone.




Ukraine will never accept recognition of occupied territories or amend its Constitution, these are red lines set by the Ukrainian people, said presidential adviser Oleksandr Bevz, who participated in the recent negotiations.

WSJ and Bloomberg confirm what’s now undeniable: Steve Witkoff helped Russia derail Ukraine’s access to Tomahawk missiles. He tipped off the Kremlin about Zelensky’s U.S. visit, giving Moscow time to arrange a call that convinced Trump to block the deal. Witkoff didn’t just misstep, he actively worked against Ukraine’s defense, in coordination with Putin’s regime.


The so-called peace negotiations between Ukraine and Russia will fail. It is inevitable. Putin‘s objective - the destruction of Ukraine (and the USA) - will never stop for as long he draws breath. He crossed the point of no return a long time ago.

The „negotiations“ only exist to delay and, eventually, to fall apart while trying to pin blame on Ukraine when President Zelenskyy rejects the destruction of his own homeland. Witkoff is just the vehicle to deliver that outcome.

■ Record number of drone strikes & interceptions (previous record on Oct 31)
■ Land-based equipment losses well above the 7-day average, mainly unarmored vehicles & artillery
■ New batch of visually confirmed losses drives the 30-day 🇷🇺/🇺🇦 ratio further down
■ Double-digit aerial attacks overnight, incl. two Iskander-M missiles; 10 locations hit, interception rate could be better
■ Increased strikes on both sides

If so many key figures, Rubio, JD Vance, Dmitriev, are aggressively denying the Bloomberg leak and calling it “fake news,” it raises serious questions. Such loud denials often signal that the leak hit a nerve or revealed something they hoped would stay behind closed doors. When power scrambles to discredit, there’s usually something worth examining.


Putin’s negotations leader Kirill Dmitriev responded to the Bloomberg leaks with a series of posts accusing “warmongers” and “war profiteers” of trying to sabotage the U.S.-led peace effort. He claims media attacks are driven by those who benefit from continued conflict, but insists truth and peace will prevail.


Ukraine supports most of the revised U.S. peace plan but firmly rejects three key demands: reducing the size of its armed forces, abandoning NATO membership, and making any territorial concessions, CNN reports. Gen. Hnatov clarified that Geneva talks only addressed Ukraine’s future peacetime army, not any demobilization.


Putin’s aide Yuri Ushakov reacted to the leaked calls with U.S. envoy Witkoff, saying “someone is leaking or eavesdropping” and accusing opponents of trying to sabotage U.S.-Russia contacts. He confirmed Witkoff is expected to visit Moscow next week as part of ongoing peace negotiations.


Trump responded to the leaked Witkoff-Ushakov call, calling such talks “standard” He said Witkoff’s job is to “sell this to Ukraine” and “sell Ukraine to Russia,” claiming that’s how dealmakers operate. Trump added that Russia’s big concession is “stopping the war and not taking more land.”


Bloomberg reveals Trump envoy Steve Witkoff advised top Putin aide Ushakov on how to pitch a Ukraine peace plan to Trump, including praising his Gaza deal. This laid the groundwork for the 28-point plan. Russia pushed for major concessions; Kyiv resisted, winning some changes after pressure from Rubio. Talks are still ongoing.
