NEW: What went wrong with Dragon Age: The Veilguard? Why was the writing so tonally inconsistent? Why did it feel so shallow? Why were there so few choices? Really, after ten years of turbulence, it was a miracle that anything came out at all. This is the story: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

I did not enjoy Veilguard at all; as someone who works in games the seams where it was stitched together and reconstituted from previous iterations were just too obvious and grating. But as this shows, it was a miracle the thing released at all, and the devs who got it to the finish line are heroes

Please… your donations are my last hope to survive. It seems they want to cut off my connection to the world. Death is chasing me, time is running out, and I have no strength left except in your merciful hearts. Donate to help me evacuate .. Save our life. 🙏🏽

I've seen more and more people using the term "chemical munitions," and I think that's great. We need to stop using the cute little names that they made up specifically to make the use of these things more palatable.

DO NOT TELL PEOPLE TO SIT DOWN AT A PROTEST. They do not need an excuse to attack you they’ll do it if they want to. When you sit down you lose the ability to run for safety and put your head in direct danger from clubs and projectiles. People got terminal Brian injuries like this in 2020.

When you look at Trump's cratering immigration numbers, remember what Zohran Mamdani was already doing three months ago — while the rest of the Democratic party was still twiddling their thumbs on detaining student protestors and giving ICE more power:

all of us have done things in our youth we are not proud of but sometimes you also do things you are still very proud of and discovering that a classmate of mine from 3rd grade still thinks defense & defence are 2 diff words with diff meanings is in latter category, I did such good work that day

Sorry, but a rounding error number of people aren't going to get anything done without disruptions. With chaos, violence etc, absolutely, so long as it is directed, but just walking from point A to point B will do absolutely nothing

As someone said prior, the only reason Greta got released is because people were very loud about her specifically. There are still 8 other flotilla members detained, apparently without fresh water in bedbug infested prison. They all deserve to be fought for, too.

The idea that the progressive left used the internet to bully institutions into accepting unpopular, far-left positions is the exact opposite of what has actually happened. The alt-right used the internet for ideological capture and they are now in the White House bragging about it daily

As long as Trump has locked in at least 45% of the US population for anything he does he can divide and neutralise opposition for long enough to paralyse US state capacity and increase risks of civil conflict before mid-terms

It’s so much worse this time. It might not be clear if you don’t live in LA, but the supposed “riots” are tiny. They’re nothing like George Floyd in 2020. Protests are happening in a few blocks downtown and as resistance to specific ICE raids. This is 100% pretense for fascist subjugation.

It never fully existed, but the post war international order is completely dead. Not only is bombing hospitals and planned starvation fair game, so is targeting journalists, aid workers, and aid seekers. “War” has lost all boundaries. Might makes right.
