I can’t believe you vandalized the Cool Runnings page on Wikipedia just for the sake of a joke! ;-) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cool_Ru...

I’m just excited to see that the Les Enfants Terribles project was real and have confirmation that it was first used to clone Che Guevara. It finally explains why he got twice as much merch as any other revolutionaries, including Washington.
What appears to be dual clones of Che Guevara wait in line to debate Charlie Kirk. Clearly these men were cloned by the United States government to sell twice as many T-Shirts.

Instructions unclear, Mr. Graham. If I were, for example, a Venezuelan living in the US, should I be expecting to receive help and hope, or should I start packing, as your friend Mr. Trump would have me do? I understand what Oper. Christmas Child is, but I can’t help but notice a mixed message.
A fundraising mailing from Franklin Graham’s Samaritan’s purse, where Samaritan’s Purse encourages its supporters to “Start Packing!” Christmas presents for poor kids in countries like Venezuela.

The irony of “Get Packing!” when Graham’s favorite President boasts about kicking Venezuelans and other immigrants out of the country and sending them to places like CECOT without due process or even the accusation of a crime is not lost on me.Venezuelans receiving help and hope? Not around here! You must be mistaking Venezuelans for white South Africans, Mr. Graham.

The Reflecting Pool, which suffered great damage due to the Vandals and Radical Left SCUM that hate our Country, has been, for the past two days, in full operation. It looks beautiful!
After July 4th, we will release the water, fix the damage done to the very expensive waterproof matting, with the use of sharp knives and muscle, including the 350 foot gash along its right side, and have it looking as good as it was two weeks ago, when it was absolutely PERFECT! This will all happen very quickly. Security is watching very carefully for the almost 70 other Monuments, Statues, and Fountains that we renovated throughout Washington, D.C. If anyone attacks any of them, they get as much as 10 years in jail.
In any event, go check it out - The Reflecting Pool is magnificent! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP

We have a saying for this in Midgar: “Attack while it’s tail’s up!” Oops, game over. Ugh…I’ll get it next time.
A famous screenshot from Final Fantasy 7. One of the characters shouts:
"Attack while it’s tail's up!”

Sadly, a rushed Japanese-to-English translation seemed to imply the opposite of what would have been the safe move here. Still a very impressive translation, though, given the time constraints the translator had!

Nope.

And by nope, I don’t mean that I refuse to play by the rules. I think it’s actually a full sentence. English is weird like that, I think. Anyway, I’m not an English teacher, so send me to detention if I got it wrong.

For many, I don’t buy it. Because: 1. A lot of things are legal that they don’t want to be legal. Asylum seekers, refugees, TPS, etc. 2. This administration canceled as many of those as possible. Our refugee acceptance dropped by 99% in 2025, and now the vast majority are white South Africans. 2/
The number of refugees admitted to the US dropped sharply in 2025.

Perhaps it’s no wonder that the cult classic is finally getting a remake these days. Haven’t played much yet, but I hope it’s good! From what little I played of the demo, it seems like it simplified the controls a lot and sanded off the rough edges but seems to keep the whimsy.
The LBA remake.

And speaking of characterization, Twinsen had *sass*. Sorry, Sonic. Crash. Spyro. You guys were all great, but Twinsen was in a class of his own.
Twinsen sticks his tongue out at his jailor. Did he pay for it a moment later? Sure. But totally worth it.

Let’s talk sound. LBA had a gorgeous OST by Philippe Vachey with CD-quality sound. And you knew it was CD quality because you could play it in most CD players via the game disc. And, rare for that time, it had voice acting, which really helped the quirky characters come through.
Twinsen got caught by the guards… again. Oh well, time for a prison break!

Add all this to a fantastical world with a planet with twin suns and an ice wall equator, populated by quetches (humans), rabbibunnies sentient rabbit people), grobos (elephant people), and more, all rendered with some of the simplest, most appealing, low-poly 3D models ever made.

It did that all with a unique sense of whimsey & humor, reminiscent of the best of the then-popular but dying adventure game genre. Need access to a certain book at the library? Well, a guy there has been complaining about the water quality, so maybe we can taint it with cough syrup to improve it!
Twinsen poisons the water supply… uh… with cough syrup, though, so not actually poison. To be fair, this was very irresponsible and could have ended very badly. Fortunate, it instead just made the water taste better, and no one complained or died.

LBA (1994) came at a unique and awkward time in the transition between games becoming 3D. It did a lot of the tricks that blew our minds when FF7 (1997) came around, but did so three years earlier. ✅ Polygonal characters on pre-rendered backgrounds ✅ Cool CGI cutscenes ✅ Blow up evil tech centers
Twinsen (LBA1) needs a ride.
