Loading screens are boring 🥱 A fun little optimisation we're thinking about - we can strategically load assets while the user is menuing, if we can predict where they're going next. Frustration with waiting for loading is partly due to the fact that the user can't do anything while it's happening.

Germany's "Staatsräson" could have been to never let something like the holocaust happen again - to ANYONE. Instead they decided it should mean unconditional support for one state, even if it means history repeating itself with a new victim.

"Don't worry, my dog is friendly" - means nothing to someone with a phobia - is too late when you've already let them off the lead to run at strangers - doesn't make the saliva that's now on my hands sanitary We don't know your dog, or you. Just keep it on a lead and under control.

I don't really get why people were shocked by JK Rowling being crap after reading that her idea of a prison run by the good guys in her books for 13-year-olds involved using 24-hour psychological torture on the prisoners for the purpose of... Driving them to insanity I guess?

Supermarkets who, during Ramadan, put out special displays entirely consisting of dates sourced from the apartheid state of Israel - do you have no shame? We check them and we see you.

It's very obvious that the leader of "the only democracy in the middle east" will extend the conflict in Gaza as long as possible, to avoid having to hold an election which would likely oust him from power. The irony of one person being in power as long as him in a "democracy"

A personal reflection: While in a very bad mood: because you feel really bad, it also feels as if it should be very hard to get out of that mood. Otherwise, maybe it wasn't "valid" or "justified" to be so upset. So you push yourself to stay in that mood, despite knowing it's harming you.
