No, but I did get a sudden urge to play Knights of the Old Republic.

This is the current head of Israel:

Mr Benjamin Netanyahu, born on 21 October 1949, Prime Minister of Israel at the time of the relevant conduct.

Arrest warrant issued on 21 November 2024

Allegedly responsible for the war crimes of starvation as a method of warfare and of intentionally directing an attack against the civilian population; and the crimes against humanity of murder, persecution, and other inhumane acts from at least 8 October 2023 until at least 20 May 2024.

Starving children is not defending yourself.

“Weak, submissive, pathetic” like the traditional misogynistic view of women? The one that gets applied to men to suggest they are being feminine as an insult?

Skyward Sword is basically the only game in the series with actual hints of those two being in love.

I would argue that Breath of the Wild strongly hints at a loving relationship developing.

I must admit that its been too long since I played Skyward Sword to usefully compare the two though.

The more I hear about Nauru, the more it feels like a made-up place. Most of the wealth of the nation came from mining bird poo for phosphates.

Yikes. That made me think of the “let Jesus fuck you” scene from The Exorcist. So thanks for that horrifying idea.

This is the reason I treat Reddit as read only nowadays, just in case.

That said, here is not perfect. I have been banned from four communities on ttrpg.network for, from what I can tell, liking a plausible-looking post that turned out to be a bot.

Spending 6 months of your life in prison is not insignificant. Incarceration is a serious punishment.

Personally, I like games where you start as a relative nobody and have to claw your way to success. I enjoy how in Kenshi you start having the snot beaten out of you by absolutely everything, but can eventually have the skills and equipment to be taking out whole factions.

You are right about the lack of support though. I think the intention is to play to fail and learn from mistakes, but it’s a harsh lesson when you wander into a new area only to be knocked out and imprisoned by cannibals. I don’t have the fortitude to keep failing, so end up just using the wiki at times.

Or an uninhabited island that becomes full of cannibals.

Don’t forget being able to treat women like property!

Please define social media for me, because it seems like everyone’s take on it is “a website where you interact with others”, which is way too broad and I would say that applies to the entire internet then, which is a slippery slope.

That is effectively the definition from my understanding. Lemmy, Reddit, and similar boards are social media because the content is primarily user-generated.

It probably feels like the entire internet because it’s where many of us are spending most of our time.

The perception that it’s primarily powerful men is a distortion from the Epstein files. Those are the ones that can traffic victims maybe, but more often sexual assaults on children are by people known to the victim, like family or friends of family.

The FBI calls in its crack paranormal investigation team. The team consists of four plucky detectives and their dog. The dog is not forensically trained in any useful way, but is more of an emotional support animal for one of the team that struggles with addiction. It also talks to a limited extent.

The team investigates a haunting; revealing in a twist ending that it was the janitor in a costume all along.

This is mine too. It’s a cute, fun movie. Yes completely over-the-top stupid, but that’s part of the enjoyment. I think a reason I liked it when everyone else seemed to hate it was that I didn’t have a Nintendo as a kid, so I wasn’t saddled with an expectation of what Mario should be.

Autism as a diagnosis is relatively new, but people would have always had traits that would be thought of as nowadays as autistic. As an example, Rube Waddell was a professional baseballer in 1897 who was so fascinated by firetrucks that he would run off the field mid-game to chase them.

Mine is similar. A barrister once told me that you should be nervous before an important event like an interview or court appearance. If you aren’t, all it means is that you aren’t taking it seriously.

Do you mean no as in yeah nah, or nah yeah?
