IDF accepts Gaza Health Ministry death toll of over 71,000 Palestinians killed in the war Although Many International Experts Have Accepted the Health Ministry's Data as Reliable, and Even Conservative Relative to the True Death Toll, Israel Had Refused to Accept the Health Ministry's Coun...

I cannot tell you how much doubt was consistently directed at the Gaza Health Ministry’s casualty numbers and how much pressure was put on news organizations to couch those numbers as unreliable.

Biden himself said they were fabricated!

Reckon I‘m not going more than a few timezones east or west for the foreseeable future.

Canada condemns Iran's retaliatory attacks Justin Li Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand said in a statement that Canada "strongly condemns the attacks of the Iranian regime against our partners in the Middle East." Anand further urged Canadians in Iran to shelter in place and said Ottawa will "provide all possible support to Canadians throughout the region." Canada currently has no diplomatic relations with Iran, nor does it have an embassy there.

The United States and Israel have the right to bomb and murder whoever they please.

The countries they attack have no right to fight back.

This is the exact double standard on international law Mark Carney was praised for calling out at Davos, but which he continues to participate in.

Joe Dante and Hideo Kojima are close seconds but no director was more right about the future of war than Barry Levinson with the 1992 box office flop Toys.

Of course Israel immediately just started bombing schools.

Pathetic

US AND ISRAEL ATTACK IRAN Multiple explosions heard in Tehran, elsewhere, as Israel launches attacks on Iran with US help.

The world's two rogue states, Israel and the USA, have started a war not against Iran but against the whole world. We stand with Iranians, with Humanity, against the notion that Israel and the US can bomb anyone their fancy takes them to bomb. www.aljazeera.com/news/liveblo...

“I wish the game industry would leave behind its obsession with tech that sees it keep making more bloated and less original games. But I also wish they would completely remake my favourite 11-year-old game that still works on current devices.”

Sorry but there’s absolutely no need to remake Bloodborne.

Genuinely took me a decade to realise how good bolt marrow is. Have a golden splinter gun for Eyes that I only drop for an auto crossbow now.

10 years, still improving.

Scoop: DNC officials working on secret report found Gaza stance cost Harris votes The DNC's research on what went wrong in 2024 has been under lock and key since party leaders decided to hide it from the public.

Center left parties everywhere would rather cut their own throats than tell the truth about Israel. It’s a puzzler www.axios.com/2026/02/22/d...

Anytime anyone talks about the show The Pitt I get confused because I think they are talking about the 2009 DLC for Bethesda’s Fallout 3, called The Pitt.

no worries! I tried 'brkeogh' instead of my name and that got me to the XIII one which thankfully linked to the XII one.

And a more specific 'why' is it is just really nice to read bad fiction before going to sleep

I certainly won't pretend it is 'good' but it's nice to commit to a big dumb IP and see it all fit together.

Yeah there's a LOT of guff and you learn to recognise and just scan over the bolter porn guff but every now and then a bit of the broader puzzle of how all the bits are moving around gets filled in and it's very satisfying.

I am currently reading #53 lol. (I started just pirating them around #20, I couldn't justify it any more)

On Appreciating Final Fantasy XIII I remember in the past how I felt the only correct response to “Are videogames ‘games’ or ‘stories’?” was “Yes”. That is, rejecting the false dichotomy of the question that implies videogames can o…

A suburb called ‘Miami’ wasn’t helping

i don’t care if an xbox executive is ‘a gamer’ but it’s important to say that being a ceo isn’t a real job and this isn’t a uniquely gamer reaction, it happens everywhere. it’s about the issue if that the person about to fire everyone at the sausage factory might at least know how sausages are made

Or just ‘Ian’ I guess that would also have worked

I got ‘Robert’ cause of my dad and I also got ‘Christopher’ for some catholic reason I never really understood. Sadly didn’t also get Ignatius so my full initials could be BRICK

You’re so good at this one
