That is really all I have to say, but Astrobot is just one of the most delightful games I have played in years. Nothing deep or life-changing, just pure simple fun. Very much in the Nintendo school of design philosophy, but I enjoy it more than anything Nintendo has put out recently.

Looks visually great, fantastic music, and a lot of interesting mechanics that never overstay their welcome. They are still the only studio who has really leveraged all the PS5 haptics well too. My partner won't let me play it by myself because she just enjoys watching it that much.

Basically, if you have a PS5 I strongly recommend it.

But that loss will be mitigated by the remarkable thwarting of Mr. Putin’s original plan to take over Kyiv and destroy Ukraine as a nation.

What? That was never the stated objective. The whole three days to Kiev line didn't from Russia either. Russia never wanted to destroy Ukraine as a nation, though that may very well be the functional result thanks to NATO.

Imagine trying to spin "our opponent didn't destroy our capital!" as a victory when they weren't even trying to do that.

Dang, the Russian disinformation has corrupted the World Bank now too! They must be using their mind-scramble lasers.

On one hand, we have a well documented campaign of murdreing civilians and trying to drive them out of their territory permanently, with constant video and photographic evidence to back it up.

On the other hand, we have some questionable anecdotes and blurry satellite photos of some schools and governmental facilities in a country with over a billion people walking around with video cameras in their pockets.

Guess which one the US considers a clear genocide.

How much longer until we hit the "They are all nazis and we knew it from the beginning, that is why we didn't send troops" phase of cope?

If Russia isn't there, I don't see the point.

I suppose they could be checking with their owners if they would be allowed to surrender/negotiate with Russia. In which case the answer is probably no.

I think you made a wrong turn on lemmy.

But yes, won't somebody think of poor Amazon. They are really just hanging on by the skin of their teeth, aren't they.

Sounds like the Mediterranean Sea is a Hamas sympathizer, US is going to launch an anti-sea operation in the near future.

it is another stark reminder that the brave men and women who defend our great nation put their lives on the line each and every day to keep our country safe.

What, praytell, were they doing in the Mediterranean that had anything to do with keeping the US safe? I am going to go out on a limb and guess absolutely fuckall given that it is a minimum of 6,000 km from the US.

"We got the guy with nazi tattoos or the girl with SS patches. Which one do you want to use for your photo op?"

"Uh...got anything else?"

"Well, this guy over here has no questionable patches at all and doesn't actually have any tattoos!"

"Perfect! But uh...why is he doing a nazi salute..."

where leaders told me this month that a major decline in U.S. military assistance to Kyiv would embolden Beijing and weaken deterrence in Asia.

I don't think that is a common fear shared by the people, WSJ should have reported that Taiwanese leadership are worried. There is not a single mention of what the people of Taiwan want. I have many friends from uni there now, and that is not an express concern of any of them. More than anything they want to be left alone with things the way they are, not dragged into an armed conflict for American interests.

I am honestly surprised it took this long, I had just assumed he was already disappeared after they banned the communist party from existing.

and prevented any teaching about the positive aspects of Soviet history in schools.

Yet when I was a kid I was still being taught how positive slavery was in the US, and how people were actually better off as slaves than free. (That school thankfully is now a parking lot, which is all it deserves). Very happy to have left that country when I was young.

Post this in one of the other World News (they are all pretty equally liberal cesspools) and watch them go to town.

Either outright deny it, or spin it as how dedicated the people there are to restoring their homeland. Maybe suggest more countries adopt 60+ hour work weeks too.

She also noted in her blog post that, according to UN statistics, most Ukrainians who have left the country have settled in Russia.

Good news for them is that it's probably unlikely they would be forced to repatriate in that case because that sounds like absolute hell.

Of course, liberals will just throw down the "Russian Propaganda - Get Out of Argument Free" card and call it a day. By the time they have pressed their remaining citizens into slavery, liberals will have already moved onto the next Cause and won't care anymore.
