Such an excellent game. The writing is good too.

The dead need guidance. Filled with grief over their own death, they refuse to face their fate. They yearn to live on, and resent those still alive. You see, they envy the living. And in time, that envy turns to anger, even hate. Should these souls remain in Spira, they become fiends that prey on the living. Sad, isn’t it? The sending takes them to the Farplane, where they may rest in peace.

Simple stuff, almost boilerplate, but this bit really stuck with me for some reason.

Also, I’m a big turn-based combat fan, and this is one of the all-time greats

I think the shows themselves will change much less than the publicity around them. The wokeness of an e.g. Disney show has always existed more in the press releases than in the text itself.

Just write it in JavaScript then get Chat GPT to translate it into assembly

I loved this film. The pace never lets up!

It’s a pun

It varies depending on how my shitcoins are doing

I don’t think I listen to it that much but I do keep coming back to the union hall standards, and they definitely hit harder because the lyrics have meaning that never gets old. The feeling I get is almost religious, which makes sense as most of those songs were repurposed hymns!

Also noteworthy that RATM lyrics still sound as fresh as the day they were written, and ‘the rubble of what used to be a library/line up to the mind cemetery’ gives me chills every time

Definitely. I know it’s fashionable these days to be like “can I surprise you? despite being left wing, I dislike left wing music”, but who wouldn’t want to belt out Solidarity Forever or Bread and Roses with some comrades

I mean the flats around Nowa Huta look just like that, and they’re a pretty commonly cited example of ‘poor quality’ Soviet housing

Fuck yeah

This really pisses me off about Disney’s Robin Hood lol.

I hate these people so much

Am I the only one who parsed ‘summit’ as slang for ‘something’

Yeah I’m not a FALC bro at all, but we can actually have nice things — there’s so much low hanging fruit to go after before normal people even begin to feel the pinch.

Corbyn never had sufficient institutional power to do this, even if he’d had the stomach for it. And even if he’d had the stomach for it, few of his supporters would have

Under rationing in the UK, most people ate better

Edit, because I just realized this is kinda ambiguous — working class people under the rationing system ate more

I think they’d have weird foreheads but otherwise be like us

People get all squeamish when you say the word ‘rationing’, but rationing

I mean, I don’t know the specifics in this case, but there is definitely a general trend of liberals blaming global climate change for local environmental problems resulting from their own incompetence/neglect
