In Chaos Theory North Korea's aggression is entirely the result of Japanese fascists who want to remilitarize hacking their missile systems with the help of an American military contractor who wants to start a regional war for profit, so maybe they should re-read their source material.

The recent Game Freak hack leaked a bunch of story ideas for Pokeverse mythology, and some of them (like the Typhlosion one) are sus as hell.

Currently debating between going to bed early and getting a midnight burrito. Seems like I encounter this dilemma every night.

Over my adult life I've watched tickets for major acts go from under a hundred to over a thousand dollars. I used to have friends who would go to concerts every other week and see whoever was in town, but now the only people you can see at a reasonable price are local indie bands, and frankly that scene just doesn't appeal to most people. The music industry is like a sheep farmer who decided to kill and skin his sheep for leather and is now surprised that the wool isn't growing back.

AFAIK there's no game mechanic differences between Steam and Free, it's just the graphical/menu overhaul.

cried for a week straight

They're still crying about it!

Trump is playing the hits I see.

Same thing with how normalized a bunch of therapy speak has become, but of course that has the additional wrinkle of everyone misusing it because they're not licensed therapists.

After reading through a bunch of the Game Freak leaks, I am now 100% convinced that the Vaporeon copypasta came from a Game Freak dev.

This video is pretty cool, I love the throughline of ancient empires founding cities as centers of imperial administration, those cities being abandoned after the empire collapses because they're pretty useless, and then finding a new purpose as emperors hundreds of years later dug them up to "prove" their claims to the throne. And all of this is thousands of years ago, far enough that we only know about the old empire's cities because of the archeological work of the slightly-less-ancient civilization!

Dunkelzahn (circa 13,000 BC – August 9, 2057) was a Western Great Dragon. He was the 7th President of the UCAS elected, during the UCAS Special Presidential Election of 2057, but was assassinated on the night of his inauguration, later believed to be a self-sacrifice ritual to prevent the Horrors from crossing over into the Sixth World early. The policy led by his successor Kyle Haeffner can still be considered as marked by Dunkelzahn's ambitions to fight racism, exclusion and poverty and renew UCAS international relations.

the bit about fighting racism, exclusion and poverty made me actually laugh out loud when I read it. Even in the cyberpunk future with elves and orcs libs talk like libs I guess.

This is why the industries expansion works the way it does, with the state completely owning and operating the industries in question. The devs realized that even in virtual worlds Dengism is the only sane path.
