Kojima’s world building reveals a broad familiarity with global politics and his game are simultaneously packed with anti-authority/war/military-industry/police-state messages while being filled with imagery that in many ways glorifies military might and violence. I’ve always been of two minds about whether he has…

Kojima gets English Language adviser, realizes how he’s been sounding for the past 20 years, and his next game not only makes sense, but also contains characters with normal names.

Her even hinting at thinking about it and “keeping her options open” is as close to a condemnation of Warren and a lack of confidence in Biden that someone so political would risk (of course she hates Bernie, it’s almost not worth mentioning).

The shuttering of Splinter was a gawdamn travesty with a measurably negative impact on internet punditry. Fuck corporate for-profit news and fuck vulture capitalists.

The Catholics have a long and proud tradition of providing quality non-profit medical services, as dictated by the charitable mandates of their faith. Most people don’t even realize a given hospital is Catholic, but if women start to recognize that their lives are on the line they will begin to avoid these hospitals…

I still think the original was designed to piss off the internet as a marketing ploy, and that this was always the design they had planned. But I am admittedly prone to conspiratorial thinking.

Looking at the polls, the generational divide in the black community is even more stark than any other. Starting with younger Xers down to gen Z, respectability politics is dead. As you get younger, the recognition of intersectional civil rights for all oppressed groups spikes.

His tactic for winning black votes will specifically center around increasing black opportunity on the backs of other brown folk. He will attempt to convince the black community that immigrants are more at fault than white folk for the things holding them back. He’s all but spelled it out, there are even policy…

Buttigieg’s slogan: “Talk Big, Say Nothing”

Iowa is also where he’s spent almost all his money. State by state he’s not doing nearly as well anywhere else. It’s a small media market where a concentration of spending can “move the needle”.

Many people who identify as liberal or progressive are being tricked into supporting Pete. Warren and Bernie supporters need to declare a cease fire and smoke his ass as the slippery little sellout he is.

Bernie ans Warren voters need to forge a cease fire and turn their guns on Pete. He’s a smarmy, slippery little corporate weasel who should be laughed out of the room any time he tries to call himself a “progressive”.

Or maybe, just maybe she could say “I fucked up. I was wrong. I should not have done that.”. But what are the odds of that happening?

I’ve been vilified on a global scale as somebody akin to a genocidal villain and I’ll never be able to get a job again.

Yes, she is one of the two most boldly progressive candidates in the field and yet she is also the clearest consensus candidate. She has high favorable ratings across the party, and the lowest unfavorables. When asked “what candidates would you be excited to vote for”, Warren scores the highest. When looking at the…

They’re baselessly calling her a liar. They’re saying the “timetable is too long” by inferring the “10 year” figure she mentions several times is a transition period, when it’s actually the projected solvency for this first draft (she doesn’t specify the transition period in this release, but has previously said she…

A real apology is followed up by action. In this case, the action would start with not only lift every punishment they doled out over this but to provide recompense for any harm they inflicted as a result of those punishments such as lost wages or revenue.

Translation: “We’ve realized that the western market share is more valuable than the Chinese market, so we’re kinda sorry I guess.”

There are plenty of indies making great dungeon crawlers. I don’t need support Blizzard’s authoritarian bootlicking to play games like this.

I’ve been making sure to find and follow all my favorite G/O writers on Twitter so I can find out where they land.
