Despite the serious tone of this episode the game isn't (exclusively) gloomy though!

There is a message here for the British left-of-centre about both how to respond to the right and how to make the state take both their concerns seriously and, more importantly, their position. I will leave it at that.

going from "transgender ideology" to "look at the poor misguided white kid" without even taking a breath, unconscionable

An antisemite shot two kids in Colorado, at least one of whom is Jewish. The White House “fighting antisemitism” doesn’t care, because the shooter was a student radicalized online into far right beliefs, which the regime is cool with, rather than a student verbally criticizing Israeli govt policy.

Instead of having meaningless debates with people who only care about violence when a white person dies, you could instead learn something about cultural dynamics! We worked really hard on it! And for an unscripted presentation I think I did quite well lmao

Et je me crée d’un trait de plume Maître du Monde Homme illimité.

This “solo dev” and “only 3 devs” rhetoric is getting truly dangerously out of hand. Investors see this and think “I only have to pay 3 people” and the result is severely overworked and/or underpaid people and a subpar product. We need to stop treating outsourcers and contractors like ghosts.

As a flamenco dancer and a person who was born in Spain, I've spent a lot of my adult life learning about the Romani people, people who've been persecuted wherever they go, including in Hitler's Germany, but this is a story I did not know. www.youtube.com/shorts/ly-gQ...

The groups organizing the protest now estimate that at least 100,000 people joined the demonstration in The Hague. That would make it the largest protest in the Netherlands in 20 years. (Source: nos.nl/l/2567762) bsky.app/profile/jpos...

Coming to the Left Page this Summer 👀

vatican announces new pope:

Happy May Day

"Trauma Porn" should be a term reserved for TLC programming, cheap shock value network procedurals, things of that nature, but instead it's a phrase people start squealing as soon as art makes them feel any trace of discomfort.

Apropos of nothing, this is an episode I'm really happy with.

Please ignore the ASMR Waterboarding.
