The Stanley Parable: completed!
The Stanley Parable is an odd narrative game, where you are effectively given instructions by the narrator. As an office worker, you suddenly realise that everyone else has disappeared, and it feels that the point of the game is to understand why. If it were a traditional game, that would be the case. The game is most fun, or rather funny, when not following instructions.

Bollocks.
"The BBC committed a "serious breach" of broadcasting rules by failing to disclose that the narrator of a documentary about Gaza was the son of a Hamas official, UK media regulator Ofcom has ruled."

Aurora alert just woke me up. The fog is too thick here, but if you have a clear few of the sky, it might be worth to have a look outside.

Here’s a link to a sales pitch/demo of a sling, one of the oldest weapons known to us bipedal apes, slightly newer than just throwing rocks. There’s a link to a web site at the end. I have to say, the accent of the demonstrator/narrator is, I will say interesting. Remove the spaces in the following url if you’re curious.

If this toot violates any moderator’s sense of propriety then please remove it.

Good Morning #Canada
I bet you thought that I forgot about this unfinished series, but I was just waiting for a slow historical news day. Iqaluit is our newest provincial/territorial capital, as Nunavut was officially separated from the Northwest Territories to become the largest and northernmost territory of Canada on April 1, 1999. No fooling. Iqaluit, which means "place of many fish," has a long history as an Inuit hunting and fishing ground. In 1880 the British Government transfers the Arctic archipelago to the Canadian government which begins a century of colonization efforts to protect Canada's sovereignty in the area, with a bit of resource extraction that prompted settlements in Nunavut. Officially named "Frobisher Bay" In 1942 as a military airfield during WWII, the town reverted to its Inuit name in 1987.
