I'm finding Donkey Kong Bannanza more underrated though

My son is loving the free Roam mode and going around hitting all the P switches. But for me the game menu is structured to downplay all of that functionality in a big way and make it just look like any other Mario kart game.

Because less than 50% of people support that idea

Guys, it's a really good time to just log off for a bit, pull out a Nintendo and just dive into some retro games you haven't played in years and escape from the global affairs that aren't going great and you have very little influence over.

Trumpโ€™s actions in Venezuela set a dangerous precedent. Acting without legitimacy weakens our credibility, divides us at home, and plays right into the hands of Putin and Xi. Clip with @briefingwithpsaki.bsky.social

Good call. I think a big problem is the progressives have been loud and disdainful towards liberals and liberals have bitten their tongues. Speaking up for common sense is all you can do. Ideally on a social media site that won't boost the most hysterical takes for clicks

So depressing to fill half your list with Nintendo switch 2 re-releases of existing games

So pretty much every nation now needs to get nuclear weapons asap?

To be fair Trump is no less a random BS generator as grok so it's equally silly to report anything he says as more substantive or real than a grok statement.

Come on. That's clearly the Nintendo platform's game of the year.

I am with my best friend and her partnerโ€”who I love.

Watching bad TV.

Drinking a martini.

After having eaten a good dinner.

And there is joy.

Find your joy.

It doesnโ€™t have to be big.
Just real. โค๏ธ

You should believe the result. There are more than 1 million official and polling workers and robust systems in counting and certifying votes, and you had a democratic President and senate in place at the time of the election.

Such a bad time to have a Republican in charge in the US. A make or break era for AI and regulation.

When an audition changed cinema forever.
YouTube video by Via Cinema When an audition changed cinema forever.

Have you watched this? My YouTube algorithms plated it up for me two days ago and I was stunned... Just contemplating a Godfather 1 starting Sir Lawrence Olivier as Vito and Robert Redford as Michael Corleone! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿคฏ

Deep down he knows this. Which is why he's so angry at Europe, Canada and other allies

Agreed. Such a shame we can't be arguing in the media about specific measures which might contribute to reducing the potential for harm from anti-Semitism, instead of this dumb black and white, reductive "Royal Commission yes/no?" discourse

I genuinely don't think a single person at the pub would even agree with that view. I'd guess less than 40% support

Horrific reminder of the criticality of building essential safety measures and material selection for interiors. It's hard to fathom a fire started by a candle causing this many deaths but there will surely be deficiencies in key areas that massively escalated the level of loss of life ๐Ÿ˜ข

Bluesky definitely has a very politically lopsided user base. But at least they're actual human users, unlike on Twitter

Nothing to see here. All totally logical and defensible for sure ๐Ÿคข
