I can't believe the old cold war fears of a Russian invasion of Sweden are actually coming true. Thanks, America. Fucking hell.

Apparently Rule 34 art of said goblin outnumber art of all the rest of the cast combined. Not a review per se, but... at least the playerbase seem to share your enthusiasm?

They're letting Trump get away with murder here. I expected nothing but am still disappointed. He's basically running with a hot mic while Kamala has to wait for her turn. Unbelievable.

Unsurprisingly he's also bulldozing the hosts in typical fashion. They at least seem to occasionally try some pushback against him, but they seem woefully incapable of actually controlling him.

Look I don't want to sound like a downer and I'm happy for Charles and all, but it's hard not to have severe frustration at McLaren as your main takeaway from this race. They're being complete idiots and I simply don't understand it. Piastri should not be attacking Norris on lap one, he should protect him. Team orders suck, but you have to be ruthless if you want to be champion. But maybe they just don't care about winning?

I'm at least happy Albon got two good points, even though it was thanks to Magnusson's bone-headed penalty as Haas successfully undercut him. Shame Alonso missed out on a point by 19 hundreds, but AM just don't have the pace right now so can't complain.

I mean he's already insulted veterans so much that I struggle to see this making any difference. Remember when he called fallen soldiers "losers"^[1] and that he "prefers his war heroes that don't get captured"?^[2]

He will simply tell the companies they have to lower the prices, and they will say "no way" and he will say "way".

Problem solved.

At least they're smart about this stuff. Let's hope they also have something worthwhile to show, because I imagine the Gen Z:ers won't exactly be ecstatic about turning on a TikTok stream and seeing Hillary's smug sneer.

Not just nepotism, but also possibly inciting family drama along with it (at least that's what happened last time, in 2020). Plus all the shit with union busting and Uber.

I hate everything about this tbh.

I'm personally not too keen on the playersexual approach, though this article does provide some interesting viewpoints from creators of a couple of games written that way. Still, this admission from one of those creators

“What ends up happening is it feels not only like everyone is a little bit pansexual, but also nobody even sees gender, which is not real. That’s not an authentic way to build the world. 

...and this from David Gaider

“We didn’t like how [playersexual] made the characters feel like they existed in service of the player; like they were there in the game to be a toy. [...] We felt like that wasn’t why those characters existed. That wasn’t the kind of game we were making. These characters were characters first, and they had their own stories, and the player could interact with them, but it wasn’t always about the player.”

pretty much summarize my feelings on the matter. And yes, I did feel this way about BG3 too.

This one hit hard, he was truly iconic. I haven't played Max Payne 1 or 2 for decades but I still remember his performance vividly. I wonder what will happen now with both Alan Wake 2 DLCs and the Max Payne remake on the horizon.

Why not both? Imagine a cage in the courtroom and Elon and Zuck delivering testimonies between the rounds.
