i think about this tweet every single day
Me watching some high fantasy shit: I would simply not be corrupted by the magical object. If it is actively harming you why don't you just put it down. Idiot
Me receiving psychic damage 23 hours a day from my phone: Ouuughhhh

Maybe it will help. Although I doubt it.

So I actually fight the fight and you're self-important on the internet. Try talking to an actual activist once in a while maybe. Trump is worse on Gaza than Biden was. If you still haven't realised that you're just an enemy of the cause.

I'm not meaning to prove anything. I'm just earnestly giving you my word. I care a lot about the cause and invest my time and ressources, and Germany (where I am) is an absolute hellhole for it. I just honestly think there's some who are bad on the genocide and, yes, there's some who are worse.

Lol, I was on over 30 protests against the Gaza Genocide and America's and Germany's complicity in it since it started. Try again, Keyboard Warrior.

No, it's about holding fake leftists to account who instinctively need to downplay every horrible thing Trump does. Can we have some ambiguity tolerance here? Yes, Republicans and Democrats are both our enemies and both of them need to be fought. *And* yes, Republicans are worse.

Also, assuming Israel's goal in the genocide in Palestine was ever to "dislodge Hamas" is just not true.

Bad take for so many reasons. #1 being that the "weakening" Empire still has 40% of the world's military budget and enough Nukes to kill all of humanity many times over. This empire becoming more erratic isn't good.

Although, as much as I'm a fan of Larian's games, their UI is always a nightmare. Owlcat does a pretty good job though, considering the absurd amount and depths of information that is presented. Their combat log alone should win awards.

I liked those PoE Interfaces! And it really shows that they were designed for PC. The early 2010s were, in my humble opinion, a generally pretty bad time for UI. PoE, and some of that cRPG revival of that time brought some better UIs back, didn't they?

As a keyboard and mouse user, Skyrim is one of the many examples of UI being worse for us than it needs to be. Give me a button to click plus alternatively a direct hotkey any menu I need and sub-menus are entirely redundant.

Loved them, as in actively made posts celebrating what they were saying and doing. He had some presence on Twitter, apparently, and also posted about the dangers of "Islamisation of Europe", etc. Now there's reports some AfD (German far-right party) politicians were even following *his* profile.

Ruprecht Polenz is a (formerly) high-ranking CDU politician, the media that are tagged (SPIEGEL, among others), are among Germany's most reputable sources. And yes, Spiegel is reporting the attacker loved Musk, Robinson, Alex Jones, AfD and a bunch of other conspiratorial fascists.

Ugh, memories. Any chance of anything like that happening again?

On Yt: Majority Report is okay, Novara Media in the UK is excellent, especially their long-form "Downstream" interviews. There's also a pretty big German channel called "Jung und Naiv", which sometimes has English interviews. I also often check the International Socialist Alternative site for news.
