Against the Storm

I don't remember seeing this one mentioned.

It's a survival city builder like frostpunk with industry and resource management. You have three different species of woodland creatures, with their own unique needs a and abilities. It is rogue-lite as well.

Rums excellent on the steam deck and would highly recommend.

Trackmania

Classic game, runs well on the deck, fun couch-multiplayer too, although I wish they would fine tune a few things.

As of today, your local "progressive" libs are ready to hear that the Democrats are going to take them nowhere but loserville. If they care about protecting vulnerable populations like they say they do (most are genuine), then it's time to get serious about other options. We have 4 years to draw something up and it starts today.

Surely they already know you as something of a politics nerd if you post here. They are probably looking to you for an indication if you weren't too smug about "I'm not voting cause it doesn't matter" for the last 6 weeks (not advised). The existing socialist parties are somewhere between problematic and just too much for your well-meaning friends to sign up for (are you even a member yourself, liberal?).

One way to kick things off is to demonstrate some Democratic Centralism.

• Find 2 people you have very few fundamental disagreements with. Especially if they can be like "yeah, socialism, lets make our community more like Sweden".
• "We are now the socialist party of [Libtown, USA], consisting of three members, somebody design us a T-shirt or something".
• Then you start working through it. Write down a few bylaws, but be clear about your commitment to your comrades. "I'll vote for Kamala Harris 100x if that's what the party decides democratically, but also I really, really, don't think we should do that".
• This is all a great opportunity to educate, discuss politics, study/teach theory, and build bonds with political allies.
• Hopefully you get past being a 4 person book club and do some volunteering with your growing squad of 10 members.
• The endgame is that your mini-party will eventually be mature enough to vote to merge or have an official relationship with an actual substantial political party. Could be a merger with PSL or something, could be a merger with the dozen folks doing the same thing over in [Libville], the next town over.

This is organizing, this is praxis. It starts off as some nerd shit over a round of drinks, but it's at least an attempt to wield a bit of political power while also bringing more people into the fold. Your position is strong right now.

• Cars bad
• I try and avoid playing in to the "china-boo" tendency that immerses hexbear, but they kinda keep winning.
• follow up with more features (yeah the first video wasn't done, it has a drone hangar lol): https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTLq6fXt7/

Inb4 whining about TikTok in general, nobody cares

• @cloudcloutclaud - thorough content about the current LGBT scene in the PRC, culturally and legally. People often ask questions and struggle sesh about this, this is the person you want to be hearing from instead of the Anglos digging up secondhand info here (not that it's all that bad).

• @circusfaery33 - a true poster who would fit right in here. Shreds the libs about how voting for Biden doesn't matter. Consistent, high effort, thorough responses to even troll comments. We love to see it.

On brand, but I guess SpaceX has no path to profitability (go figure), so Starlink has to launch thousands of microsatellites every year cause their orbit is so low that they burn up like right away

I didn't really have high expectations for them of course but they are way below the bar of what even Tesla brings to the table.
