I really wish I could figure out how to bring Covid up without people's eyes glazing over because we need so many more people pushing for systemic interventions like clean indoor air, respirator mandates in healthcare, and treatments for Long Covid

welp, this ongoing wave doesn't show any sign of slowing down. :/
A screenshot from Ireland's most recent wastewater surveillance report. It shows a figure, and its label. The label reads "Figure 5: Weekly distribution of population-nomalized SARA-CoV-2 viral load (gc/day/person), National Wastewater Surveillance Programme, week 19 2021 to week 37 2026". The graph itself is a color-coded representation of that distribution over time. The most recent datapoints show a sharp spike up that doesn't seem to be slowing down.

the view of the world and the economy that the AI companies are pushing is functionally an end to large parts of the economic value of telecommunications. It's basically, we go back to doing as much business as possible in person, because anything done not in person is choked with spam.

An explanation on why Big Walk isn't available on Xbox. bigwalk.game/xbox
Regarding Xbox

In June 2026 we announced that the release of Big Walk would be limited to computers, Switch 2 and PS5. Since then, we have received many messages and comments, asking about a future Xbox release. We would like to address those questions here:

We have made the decision not to release Big Walk on Xbox, in accordance with the Palestinian-led BDS (Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions) movement’s call to boycott Microsoft, and their designation of Microsoft Games (and Xbox) as a priority boycott target. If you need help understanding our motives, we would recommend reading about why Microsoft is a BDS priority target, the successes this kind of pressure has already had on Microsoft, and especially, watching this great introductory piece by People Make Games.

It has always been our intention for Big Walk to be played by groups of friends, and we know that keeping the game off Xbox runs counter to those intentions. This decision means that some people will miss out on playing Big Walk with their friends, and we understand the disappointment we’re causing. We are disappointed too.

We would love for people to be able to play the game on Xbox, but not until Microsoft and/or Xbox have been removed as BDS boycott targets.

We’ve made this decision with the belief that meaningful change can be made in the world, that coordinated collective action can confront even the most powerful interests, and that one day, Palestine will be free.

Thank you for your understanding.

Sincerely,
House House

If you think something is harmful, the harmful does not stop when it's ubiquitous. It just means the harm is vast and widespread. I fundamentally do not care how useful you think it is.
