The hard turn of the liberal established media (NYT, Guardian) against trans existence is puzzling.
The whole anti-trans obsession that has bubbled up in recent years is weird. It almost feels like a concerted project but it’s too big, right?
I mean, there just aren’t that many trans people to be upset about. It’s easy to go for years without knowing that you’ve interacted with a trans person, mostly because it’s a non-issue for most folks. @…
Been playing Roots Devour (#Steam via CrossOver on #macOS
BE THE ELDRITCH HORROR YOU ALWAYS KNEW YOU WERE
It's pretty great, put in 8 hours so far.
The general gist of the game is strategic, puzzle-like reveal of map levels - capturing cards of creatures and humans, wrapping them in your blood sucking vines, and generally conquering all.
When you get stuck, spend some of the blood to open a card pack and get random helper tools, effects, and critters.
Sounds are superb and visuals are very 𝒜𝐸𝒮𝒯𝐻𝐸𝒯𝐼𝒞 - if you dig Cult of the Lamb or Darkest Dungeon, you'll probably enjoy it.
Only downside is that there's an occasional indicator that English is not the primary language of the game developers. Very rarely you can see untranslated Chinese text on-screen, one or two oddities (uncapitalized, punctuation slightly off). This is unfortunately probably why they're getting a little beat up in the Steam reviews.
Honestly, in my 8 hours so far, I've noticed it like 3? 4? times tops so far. The game is so very much my jam, it really hasn't bothered me.
Some people are also reviewing it as "too linear" - they definitely gave up way too early. There are SECRETS, side areas, choices you can make, intentionally difficult areas that will take some thinking to unlock, etc.
Currently 10% off right now, give it a shot!

This is just plain wrong. Blocking what amounts to a civil rights violation by the Feds on the grounds of sovereign immunity, especially given that the US Post Office no longer is as deeply part of the Federal government as it once was, is just plain wrong.
