It's really refreshing seeing shitey normal working class life depicted like this in a game, and a Silent Hill game no less. Pebble-dashed council flats, three-bar fires, Post Office counters, concrete shopping precincts. This must be how posh people felt playing Everybody's Gone to the Rapture.
The inside of a council flat.A brutalist concrete shopping precinct.A block of council flats.A Post Office (well, 'Post Service') counter.

honestly "AGP vs HSTS" is just the Greg/Fregley brainworm but for trans women
The Greg is horrified by the Fregley. The Fregley is a monolith of autism, and the mere sight of the Fregley fills the Greg with secondhand embarrassment. The Greg is TERRIFIED of becoming a Fregley. The Greg is above all, self loathing. The Greg knows deep down that he is not all that different from the Fregley, and this haunts the Greg.

I've never seen such an effort to censor a document as I have the Amnesty International report on gender critical groups because of JK Rowling. They removed the report from the Wayback Machine and now I got a DMCA strike on my Google Drive for having it. It was deleted and removed from my account.
A screenshot of an email viewed in dark mode with the subject line "Google DMCA Violation." The email from Google informs the recipient that they have received a notification under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) that some of their materials allegedly infringe on copyrights. It explains the removal process, mentions that notice details will be posted on Lumen, warns against repeated violations, and lists one affected Google Drive URL at the bottomA nearly identical mobile browser screenshot of the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine. It shows a search for the same Amnesty International UK resources URL, resulting in the same message: "This URL has been excluded from the Wayback Machine."A mobile browser screenshot of the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine.

Napoleon returning from exile on Elba, confronted by Marshall Ney at Auxerre, 1815
"Are you fucking going to play 'The Boys Are Back In Town' Again?" asked a voice when I reached the jukebox.

"I absolutely, 100 percent, am not going to play 'The Boys Are Back In Town' again," I promised, punching the buttons to select 'The Boys Are Back In Town', which I had memorized.

If you ask someone today to name the builder of Hadrian's Wall, they would give you a funny look. But historical memory is odd, and right up to the 1800s we forgot who built it. Until in 1840 John Hodgson, an obscure Northumbrian clergyman, published the LONGEST footnote in history... 1/22

One thing I remember and hardly anyone seems to is that there's a sort of sexual revolution interregnum when all sex was good (seen from the adult male perspective, which it mostly was) including sex with children, which was publicly defended. Feminism, mostly, is what changed that.

If you've ignored this petition because of the Good Law Project's earlier unwise intervention on the Arday case, do think again. This is backing a very well-written open letter on the racism that led to Jason's death, and has rightly gained major media traction. Worth adding your name.
