I always love when anti-trans extremists try to insist that β€œwe don’t want to force genital inspections in bathrooms”

Okay so how do you want to enforce Your creepy obsession with keeping trans women out of women’s bathrooms? Is it with magic anti-penis fields?

Crushed Legs. Gunshot Wounds to the Head. Shackled: Israel Returns Mutilated Palestinian Bodies Where is the outrage, the coverage even, of the mutilated Palestinian bodies, with crushed legs and gunshot wounds to the head, that the Israelis finally released as part of this 'ceasefire' deal?

I Cannot Unsee the Photos of the Tortured Palestinian Hostages Returned by Israel

Bethesda is still trying to shill "paid mods". Micro-DLC for which they off-load the work onto just random people stupid enough to engage with them, while Bethesda scoops off money.

They still desperately want to enclose that commons that is the modding community for the last 10 years.

This is a good reminder that --as handy as they can be-- you need to be *very* careful about which moderation lists you sub to.

A creator of a list could suddenly turn it into something else entirely, and most of its subscribers would never know.

A limestone(?) ground with grooves all through. To the left the road has been eroded about 2 metres from the surface forming a tunnel and there are horizontal lines on its walls.

The name Bakiribu waridza derives from Kariri words: bakiribΓΊ (β€œcomb”) and waridzΓ‘ (β€œmouth”), referring to the animal’s comb-like dentition. The name also honors the Indigenous peoples native to the Araripe region, Brazil.

If the democratic party in the US does something, wins minor elections & then immediately stops doing what won them that election in a manner that directly profits their opposition in an obvious way - they're not beating the allegations of being a controlled opposition in a 1 party regime.

1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

#Abstimmungsschablone Secret ballot is fundamental to (direct) democracy. Yet until now the 377000 visually impaired people in Switzerland had to disclose their vote every single time.

In the upcoming referendum, a newly developed stencil will allow them to cast a truly secret vote for the 1st time

For some reason the media is not mentioning that the reason GTA6 is being delayed is they fired 40 staff over threats of unionization and now the rest of their staff are revolting

another shower thought: people who like winter are in a sense amusing, cause romanticism towards winter is a function of being distanced from what used to make people fear it: the cold, starvation, hungry animals, disease, darkness, people turning on each other etc

If you see the same wooden tower so often in the games & films you consume, the image in the average person's mind of what "a wooden tower" looks like when imagining the concept is influenced by that.

shower thought of today: If you have an asset store for media creation, and that store contains a limited selection of assets for how something looks such as a tower made of wood, and this asset gets used significantly more than other variations of "a wooden tower", it helps conceptual reproduction

- "And that was the worst part of it all
I still feel the air in the empty walls
I guess that's the way it always was
To tell you the truth though it’s been enough

But believe me friend that I’ll be moving on" -

Even though it's technically not farming I would argue fishing-, mining- etc horror games all fall under the umbrella of farming-horror.

It's menial labour, you collect large quantities of common goods, there's a monetary ingame system usually allowing for customization and/or upgrades etc.
