We've heard racist chants. We've heard chants for the IDF. Their football captain has spoken out in support of their soldiers. Yet we are told to keep politics out of football. We are calling for the resignation of FAI senior management for the debacle that has been the past 72 hours.

really dig this from mikhail, illustrates why I push back against people who would like marathon to be some other kind of game. form follows function! the narrative themes and gameplay genre inform one another! it is a work with a coherent vision!

This framing captures the Times’ subtle bias against elite accountability. Why would holding someone accountable for their crimes be a threat to the power order? Accountability is the way through scandal within an existing power order. Refusing to hold Andrew accountable would be the bigger threat

King Charles III’s family, long rocked by infighting and grievous losses, is facing what could be the gravest threat to its moral authority in more than a generation.

Horses' only sin is that its broad themes don't entirely pay off its loaded imagery. Otherwise, it's an effectively uncomfortable games that turns life's mundane humiliations into surreal horror. If anything, its bans fill in its thematic gaps for it. My review. www.polygon.com/horses-banne...
