highly recommend playing In Stars and Time - one of the very few turn-based RPG games I have properly, fully finished, which I think says something

it sucks that mittens look aesthetically cooler but are less useful than winter gloves because what if you need the rest of your fingers but can't take off the mittens because then the frostfiends immediately give your hand the cold and freezing and cold and cold and cold and cold and cold and

the double dash ❤️💙 a mix of two of my favorite franchises :) #sapphire #ruby #su #rupphire #stevenuniverse #mariokart

Sapphire joyously driving a Mario Kart Double Dash style Pipe Frame kart, having just done a quick swerve after having foreseen a better item - lightning - in the (from our point of view) leftward item box, with Ruby flailing behind as a result of the swerve.

Estonia: the centre-left Social Democratic Party (SDE-S&D) has been removed from the governing coalition of the liberal Reform Party (RE-RE) and the liberal Estonia 200 (E200→EPP). With the Social Democratic Party removed, the coalition has 52/101 MPs. ➤https://europeelects.eu/estonia/

"some serious alternatives would have been nice, just for the sake of the competition" as in, there were alternatives but none of them reached the bar of giving tommy cash much of a challenge ollie last year did make the 5miinust x puuluup win a bit more intense, for example

the song is okay and all but it feels like it's lacking on the stage aspect so if we do make it to may with this, i'd hope to see more improvements there. it's not giving "eurovision 2025 winner" right now and the controversies don't help either, oh well

bananasareviolet @bananasareviolet.bsky.social · 22/02/2025

on another note, as it seemed and was later confirmed (tommy cash won with 83%) - it really felt like we had no choices in the eesti laul of this year and it all seemed more like a long coronation some serious alternatives would have been nice, just for the sake of the competition

the official ESC page has tommy cash on it but the video of his performance was taken down from the ESC channel hours after uploading, and now there's also that new song with joost klein getting mixed signals as to whether we'll have someone out there in may or not ...no stresso, no stresso?

elon is faking it in terms of liking ai for the record before he went nuts he used to often warn about the dangers of ai, he even used to call for global regulations on ai now, like on almost everything, he's flipped in order to pursue corruption with the republicans

Desynchronising our energy grid from Russia has begun. We have thoroughly prepared for this. There are sufficient controllable capacity and external connections in the Baltic States to ensure a smooth transition. Tomorrow we will join the Continental European frequency band.

USAID worked to take down apartheid south africa, it's currently saving countless children during the famine and genocide in sudan, it's destroying landmines in warzones, helping field hospitals in refugee camps, distributing medicine to fight HIV and polio. the list goes on.

bananasareviolet @bananasareviolet.bsky.social · 03/02/2025

there's also the aspect of actual humanitarian/ aid and support to civil society in many countries. you know why bukele (dictator of el salvador) supports ending USAID? because he's an autocrat and dismantling civil society faster allows him to consolidate power and commit more human rights abuses

go ahead, call your public officials. it's the best you can do while there aren't elections, alongside public pressure of course. the pressure needs to be active and unrelenting. they try to impose this flurry of insanity to get away with actually sinister policy. don't let them

bananasareviolet @bananasareviolet.bsky.social · 02/02/2025

media has already been missing the mark on what's important, so it falls upon democrats. it might even be worth calling your senator(s) and district rep (assuming they're dems, because republicans won't undercut their own party) and tell them of the need to do these things.

bananasareviolet @bananasareviolet.bsky.social · 02/02/2025

everything that is happening within the federal government meanwhile is serious and should be locked in on, house district reps need to meet with constituents and show them what support trump has taken from them and what costs he has imposed through his policies.

it's going to be important to recognize in the next 4 years what is actually meant seriously and what is thrown out as a distraction. i hate the attention on gulf of america because it's the clearest example of a distraction.

this will be the most "libcoded" thread i will ever make but, my american friends: it feels like there's too much happening. but that's basically the intention here. to wear people out and do a lot of nefarious shit while people don't notice.

DOGE and musk don't have the authority they claim to have here. as bluntly put and as uncomfortable it might be for fence-sitters - this is ILLEGAL and deserving of nothing less than complete and TOTAL legal prosecution and punishment come 2029. legitimately.

i feel like partyball - a kind of mix of polandball and polcompball - would be a decent concept for internet comics if there was an audience for it (something like election twitter would probably fit in that box but it's also the demographic to not do either polandball or polcompball actively)

bananasareviolet @bananasareviolet.bsky.social · 26/01/2025

so #1 this will definitely lead to a spike in coffee-related prices #2 who are "allies and supporters"? the US has designated colombia as a major non-NATO ally #3 i'm very curious how this will impact the US-backed fight against FARC dissident guerillas, especially as the US suspended foreign aid

Trump might spend every last bit of political capital trying in vain to undo his 2020 defeat. He pardoned the J6ers out of weakness — his loss remains a massive ego blow and this was the only thing he could do about it.

Trump always talks about Finland and how they don’t get the forest fires California gets because they manage their forests better. It’s true that Finland excels in forest management… but there’s one big difference: FINLAND GETS MUCH MORE RAIN.
