Lot of his work is inspired by his childhood during the war, hence all the soldier helmets used everywhere and ruinous buildings. How his life ended is just so sad.

I mean, yeah? From what I've seen of Mark he seems super nice to anyone and supports everyone. The vid of the kid (fan) that won't let go of hugging him cracks me up, Mark just calmly interviewing all the while, unphased 😂.

The rich get interest while the poor get debt. Tale as old as time tbh

I think, but don't hold me to it, they're talking on how since China isn't exactly democratic, things get pushed through a lot quicker, like climate policies. I wouldn't say it's China's intention to look like the "green superpower", just that it gives a better geopolitical look to China. Just to make clear, I don't support China, and likely never will without some national revolution and major reform (cough cough, fuck the CCP), only giving my thoughts.

Dude, you're name is joking about native American genocide, stfu

Didn't know much on the UK post slave ban. Gives me some hope we'll turn a 180 again somehow with our current problems

Not sure about engines, but when you "break in" a horse that doesn't seem like much of a "rest" for the horse. More so indoctrination or submissive tactics.

Rap snitches MF DOOM, for those wondering.

I've gone through (I think) the whole Culture series of Banks. Weirdly enough, they got recommended to me by a barber when I was ~15yrs. Sweet guy, he had no tv & read a shit tonne. I love the philosophical and/or societal talking points overarching each of Banks book most, I'm awful at recalling the actual stories. There's identity crisis in Consider Phlebas, purpose in Player of Games, excession in the aptly named Excession, the list goes on really. Plus hyper sci-fi, so a bunch of wobbly physics and warfare situations going on. If you can't tell, I love these books lol

Ironically that probably ousts out their minimal value harder. Not a good look forcing your "underlings" if productivity was good prior, and subsequently falls flat.

Way too much logic with this approach for a game publisher/company to follow. Gotta milk every IP for all its worth, seperatley, to get the biggest cash cow's out of the nothing burgers served.
