Also apparently there was a kiss between two of the underage characters that the underage (at the time) actress wasn't told about until it happened which the directors did as a "funny prank" on her.

yamagami had a coherent ideology or at least reason, i.e. "my mother was exploited and died in poverty via a cult, I wish to destroy the leader of this cult and if not that then it's biggest enabler". He succeeded due to this very clear, very direct understanding of the target and goal as well as likely the inherent challenge of creating the doohicky due to the gun laws in Japan.

Ngl they have all been totally not "good guys" given them being neocon wonks and weird ass distorted chuds in their ideology. Contrast with yamagami who had a clear vision of why and who he wished to do an adventure-time on that he was successful even in a country with strict gun laws.

Hot take is that these presidential assassin fail sons are a result of American chauvinism inherent in gun culture and the ease of access in guns leading to a over estimation in one's own skills in actually hitting a specific target.

Latest Pathfinder, though chunky rules wise given it's origin, has been doing a good job taking the 2nd place of best known RPG especially after the whole WoTC going after third party content creators and pissing all over the community. There's also a new boom in indie TTRPGs which is nice.

Looks like they might break it again

True, I'd also add Cybertrucks as well as the rich middle income techbro graft

They really are, I love how after this and other shit like Theranos that all it takes is a somewhat socially competent smart sounding white person to rip them off for millions

"We achieved the impossible. Hail to the working class!" Always a line that brings chills when you finally get to the end of the DLC and choose the good ending.

Honestly looks kinda interesting and happy to see Disco Elysium inspiring more iso rpg styles outside of standard DnD CRPGs

Honestly will be pretty happy if this means Capcom is gonna revive the series, gotta say the new VA for Frank doesn't hit right though.

Like for real, gamers okay with aliens being Gods and Leonardo Da Vinci being an assassin but God forbid they make a historic Black dude in Japan being slightly cooler than he was

Pretty good Helldivers rap with some great lyrics, that'll likely fall on deaf gamers ears but sans-shrug

Another good intro to leftism by SecondThought, good to share for those you know just now figuring out liberals are just another flavor of western fascism and chauvinism.

deeper-sadness honestly sad, one of the few good troops to realize how fucked the system is and then did the utmost sacrifice in protesting the system

Don't know how many peeps here have seen the latest season of True Detective called "Night Country", but so far I've really enjoyed it. However strolling over to lovely reddit-logo has a lot of blubbering manchildren upset about the new season which just so happens to have two female leads, focuses upon abuses of Native Alaskans and women in general (domestic abuse, murder, etc), and also has native empowerment over exploitation as a theme. Well I just watched the final episode and I fuckin' loved it, so here's kinda a short tldr of it marked as a spoiler as I encourage y'all to see the show first if you haven't (it's an anthology so really only Seasons 1, 3 and this one are worth it).

spoilerAlright so the season began with a murder/suicide of a bunch of research scientists digging up ice cores to find microbes for eternal life or whatever (they had been found naked dead on the ice), however while checking the crime scene a human tongue is found and connected with the murder of a Alaskan Native woman several years ago by the name of Annie K (a woman that protested the activities of the local mining corp that was poisoning the town leading to stillbirths and other horrible stuff). Annie was a central figure to the town's native population being one of the younger upcoming midwives and spiritualist (don't know the proper term). She had been found stabbed and dumped over by the mine and her murder buried by the police and local politicians in cooperation with the mine to avoid public backlash.

Welp turns out she was murdered by the Tsalal scientists when she found out they were the ones responsible for the pollution in a bid to thaw the permafrost and ice to get to harder to reach ice core samples. This would later be found out by the local circle of Native Women who performed a lot of the menial labor in town (maids and so had access to a lot of areas such as the police station, the mining office and the Tsalal station), so in revenge the women staged a faked suicide on to the ice, forcing the men at gunpoint to strip and wander into a blizzard for the sins they committed (all the men were responsible for stabbing Annie K to death Agustus Ceasar style when she tried sneaking into Tsalal many years ago to find info on the pollution). Anyway the season ends with the current cop duo covering for the Native women and letting the murder go unsolved as well as resolving issues of mother hood and sisterhood (similar to how season 1 was about the lacking of fathers and brothers/comrades as a secondary theme).

So yeah gonna be a lot of wojak-nooo in response to the show being turned into "Woke Detective". Anyway it's a pretty good season and is worth a try even though it does drag sometimes (but is thankfully only 6 episodes something I think was wisely chosen by the show lead).

Honestly surprised it took so long for a mainstream attempt at a zoo horror game, setting is ripe with it as well as the possible themes. Zoochosis for instance is actually the mental breakdown and psychosis zoo animals can suffer under from long term confinement without proper enrichment at zoos.

Ahh wonderful, time for so many future children to be born horribly disfigured via contaminated drinking water. Also don't forget all the booming cancer rates!
