Here is mine.

Voter turnout was low in 2024 compared to 2020. I made a conjecture as to why that'd be the case when the stakes were so damn high. But fuck me for trying to point that out.

You don't need to convince me that Trump is much worse.

I am surprised that Symphony of the Night isn't on there.

Started a campaign in XCOM 2, using the Long War of the Chosen mod, along with Mod Jam. XCOM is one of those games I've revisited regularly over the years, and mods help keep it fresh. Found out the person who made Mod Jam is taking a break and someone else made a replacement already - TedJam. Maybe I'll play another campaign after this one using TedJam instead.

Fair enough. However, they should release the footage regardless. Especially since 4 people got shot, 2 of which were bystanders, and that this was over a cheap fare. Cops are pretty untrustworthy.

Oh? Would getting shot in the head protesing in Israel be more productive? I donno about you, but I work my ass off and would love to take some time at the end of the day with a game or movie. Unfortunately, I'm not rich enough to stop a genocide half a world away.

Probably because there was no knife in the footage.

So Israel deployed snipers using lethal ammunition to target protesters with excessive force. In this case, a US citizen. For some reason, this event reminds me of the Boston Massacre. Protesting the slaughter means you get slaughtered too.

I'm guessing we've abandoned all pretext of a red line that Israel can cross and they're free to do whatever, and the whole situation just feels like we've decided that we're on the side of evil because we keep supporting this. Might as well start putting skulls on our caps.

I have a similar story, except the people I asked about it convinced me it might be a scam. I bought some later, but it wasn't the lifechanging amount it could've been.

Looking at other sources, it looks like they're shipping them to other counties. Now they're homeless somewhere else. How heartwarming.
