Well, Anbernic sent me their VERY #Nintendo DSi-ish handheld to review a little while back. After an interesting first week (they had a desync issue where the top screen ended up running at 40 Hz while the bottom stayed at 60 Hz), they fixed the issue with an update.
I spent a LOT of time with this handheld, and honestly...I'm one of the (seemingly) few who loved it :)
If you wanna read my #gaming review on this one, you know the link to follow:

Hands-On With The Anbernic RG DS; The DSi Reimagined
I reviewed the RG DS; an updated take on the DS-style handheld. Is it everything we've been hoping to replace our aging DS handhelds?dash (The Bryant Review)

I wonder if European Volkswagen drivers in the 1940s drove around with a sign on their cars saying, "I bought this before Hitler invaded Poland".

The news that #X has suspended the #EU's advertising account on the platform after it issued a 120m EUR fine against X for breaking the #DSA is beyond hilarious.
And it might even be kind of good in the sense that politicians in Europe maybe finally realise how shitty it is to depend on such a lunatic for its public communications.

X axes European Commission’s ad account after €120M EU fine
Nikita Bier, X’s head of product, accused the EU executive of trying to amplify its own social media post about the fine on X by trying “to take advantage of an exploit in our Ad Composer.”Bjarke Smith-Meyer (POLITICO)

Kash Patel copied the contents of former/legitimate FBI Director James Comey's lawyer's computer to read their email and private legal documents. A judge has prevented the FBI from using the files and expressed the opinion they will be returned after Don's government makes its case, and that the seizure was unwarranted.
Don and Kash expect their crimes to be law, and the law to be criminalized.

The Trump admin🚨has effectively outsourced soaring disaster costs to ill-equipped states, profit-seeking insurers, & ultimately, helpless individuals. When the next hurricane hits,
these cuts will prove disastrous.
>1/3 of #FEMA staff🚨have been fired
& #KristiNoem has left the rest unable to do their jobs. Stancil argues that it's worse than negligence -it’s evidence for “the Trump admin’s disdain for human life itself.”

We've already experienced this in my community where we looked to FEMA for assistance after last July's deadly and horribly destructive flooding here, in this very Red region. Don just revoked our aid package evidently because we're Blue statewide, and that's how the regime nongoverns. (Our DC delegation is 2 Democratic Party members and an Independent.)
We're not proud to be among the first with this. Things will get much awfuller all around the country.

When I republish multi-panel, longer cartoons they receive less commentary & engagement than typical, single panel cartoons do even though their format allows them to tell bigger stories. Here's a sample.

These 4 are all from the brilliant @jensorensen.bsky.social
The effort to topple democracy in #Venezuela and plunder its state-developed petroleum has zero to do with drugs; there weren't drugs of any kind on 80% of the murdered sailors' boats; the only crimes here are going totally unpunished, and they are being committed by Pete Hegseth, Don Trump, Marco Rubio, Elliott Abrams' gang of pillaging nazi CIA thugs - and this Frank Bradley guy. #warCrimes and lying to our Congress. These crimes do not benefit any human being. These #warCriminals will all one day find themselves lined up against a big, beautiful wall.

I suspect I'll get some angry responses for this review. So many hated the RG DS with their reviews, though they were before Anbernic's update which fixed the worst of them. I just wonder how mine will be received, esp with loving it.
Let me know what you think!
