It is idealism, but on the other hand… He also did lead a successful revolution and then successfully defended that revolution for decades from the full might of the US empire, so I certainly don't think it would be blind idealism in his case.

I might watch episode 1 of Seventeen Moments of Spring beforehand since I wasn't able to follow super close last week, if I have time. I'll do that at about 9:30 CET if I do.

2023 statement from the creator:

I regret the spelling errors found in the game. I am mildly dyslexic and suck at spelling. Back in 1988, I had no one to edit my writing. I also regret some of the more "cringe-worthy" humor that is inappropriate by today's standards. In some older video reviews as well as interviews, people have used the pronouns "she and her" when describing me. I am transgender and my preferred pronouns are "They, Them, and Their."

Also from the original info file:

About "Caper in the Castro" This game is a Gay and Lesbian based adventure mystery featuring graphics, text, animation and sound. Written with HyperCard® Version 1.2. (Earlier versions will not be compatible) It is the first Gay and Lesbian computer game to be published in the world, as far as we know.

In the game you assume the role of a lesbian private detective, Tracker McDyke, in search of a kidnapped drag queen, Tessy LaFemme. What you stumble onto is an even bigger and more hideous crime with a mystery that surrounds it. (Who is Dullagan Straightman? Who is the mysterious "L.L." that Straightman works for? What is the meaning of the cryptograph?)

The game has a built-in help/tutorial if you get stuck, the best advice is to try everything and anything during your adventure. You never know what might happen! The game is packed with inside humor, puns and lots of perplexing problems.

If Trump makes it to heaven I’m going to raise an army of the damned in hell and we’re going to invade heaven and kill god. Might do this regardless of where Trump ends up. I guess we’ll see.

Speaking from a hospital in Greece, Stav Ben-Shushan says he and his wife were at Bolivar Beach on the Athenian Riviera speaking to another Israeli couple when a man started filming them and chanting: “Free Palestine, fuck Israel, I am Hamas.”

I get the feeling this guy is making shit up, but that would be pretty hilarious if it really did happen.

So British politicians and people like JKR are spewing rhetoric that leads to actual hate crimes, but Bob Vylan is the one “inciting violence” I guess?

This is from a Guardian article about it:

The gunman is still at large, law enforcement said on Saturday, and the city of Brooklyn Park still on a shelter-in-place order. The shooter was impersonating a police officer, dressed in a uniform that would appear to be real to most people, police said.

“They did drive a vehicle that looked exactly like an SUV squad car,” Brooklyn Park’s police chief, Mark Bruley, said at a press conference. “It was equipped with lights, emergency lights, that looked exactly like a police vehicle, and yes, they were wearing a vest with taser, other equipment, a badge very similar to mine, that no question, if they were in this room, you would assume that they are a police officer.”

So they had actual law enforcement vehicle? This seems very sus. Less like a "lone wolf" and more like an organized hit.

EDIT: After hearing about the assassin's background, him just being a larper makes more sense but I'm still a little suspicious.

reminds me a little of a quote

[-] Carcharodonna@hexbear.net 102 points 6 months ago

Almost none of these articles or comments on the killing mention that his husband is a trans man, so this is a transphobic hate crime as well.

Or you could just go spray paint “MS-13” on a few walls and call it a day.

Holy shit, the trans content on this app is wholesome af. Tons of supportive Chinese users too. Really heartening to see this kind of international coming-together.

I’m so used to browsing trans TikToks and inevitably seeing transphobic shit posted by chuds in the comments, but I see only kind words here.

Very cool story, but also pretty sad how they were able to make the discovery:

For the study, the team examined 28 sharks that had died after being caught as by-catch in fishing nets. While there is some uncertainty in the age estimates, Nielsen stated that the most likely age for the oldest shark was about 390 years, with a 95 percent certainty range of 272 to 512 years.

Imagine surviving almost 400 years to die in a net just so that some hairless apes (humans) who are going to die relatively soon anyways can make more money that they don’t really need.
