Slowly just assembling a full-body scan one organ at a time!

Oh, and to be clear: I think the hardback kinda REPLACES the slip-case, if that makes sense? No need for a slip-case at all if the cover itself gives the decent structural integrity with a nicer reading experience to boot! Don't get me wrong - the slipcase is nice, but a proper hardback is better!

Hardbacks are for life; paperbacks are just for christmas 😎

Ngl I first backed the special edition BECAUSE I thought it'd be hardback for some reason 😅 But yeah, super important (for me, at least)! Paperbacks are great for lightweight throwing into bags and lending to folks; hardbacks are for when you want to give something pride of place on your shelves!

Just you wait until you do hardback editions - you'll have barely pressed "publish" before it gets fully-funded! 👀

Clearly, blinking LED cat ears are the only solution 🤔

Using £1 overnight megabus tickets instead of hostels when I was homeless is finally paying dividends 😎

Let's go further - it's hardly learning after all - it used to be called Big Data Processing, which is just profoundly unsexy 😂

Such a noisy photo - I can hear the music from here!

Every time my grandad was questioned about one of his scars / injuries he'd say "aah, it was a rhino from the rhododendrons", so thank you for continuing the tradition of keeping these flowers vaguely somehow threatening in my brain 🫡

Police are incapable of shame and self-reflection. Police will NEVER be swayed by protests, slogans, chants, signs. Effectice tactics involve adding complexity, time, and resources to their planning & operational rhythm. Classic insurgency tactics against a superior force. Classic for a reason.

...wait, IS THAT HOL FROM RED DWARF?! So strange seeing'em in something else - though I need a lie-down after that video clip 💀

Ahh, I said "next" not "soon", haha - I'm in no rush; if we get something before 2030 then I'll be happy!

There were some out there, but they're all either broken by later patches or no-longer work at all, alas! With EU5 being released soon, I'm hoping that Stellaris 2 will be next and I can hop back in then, haha

Oh man, I used to love this game, but the text is too small at 4k resolution, and their UI-scaling feature just makes text blurry, so I haven't been able to play it since I got this new monitor! 😭

It entered-and-exited my wishlist in such quick succession once I saw just how badly M&KB was supported 😭
comment in response to post
Can you add alt text? I wanna know what these are! haha 🙏😭
comment in response to post
This was my first thought, too 😅

If it helps give some additional perspective: what was a nightmare of vulnerability for you, was, I suspect, just "oh cool, they're doing a kickstarter!" for all of us already hyped about this game, haha

Cancelled my subscription, deleted my account, and uninstalled. They can go to hell - I'll just use a different app 👎

Set the ombudsman on their ass! 🗡️

I mean, if the game removes its dodgy AI-generated portraits etc then I'm up for this; otherwise the irony of a game about a workers republic using gen-AI is just too much irony for me to handle!
