this is a fan mix of several different versions of Cut Through, but even the "base" version on the OST absolutely whips. the SYNCOPATION and power on that chorus, it's like Chris Larkin was writing metal for strings

Players walked into the dungeon today and I started narrating "there is a moist cavern to the left, while some sort of green ectoplasm drips from the walls to your right" before realizing that was LITERALLY the "creepy or wet" copypasta

the USA really managed to rehabilitate its image by being on the right side of a war that ONE time in 1940something, because it is genuinely impressive how they have been on the wrong side of every single other one for like 200 years

I've heard it called an "E brake", and if you wanna do illegal and dangerous Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift shit in your neighbourhood i *think* you can use the handbrake for that. but probably not in every car (and you're certainly not drifting in a front wheel drive work van lmao)

New working paper: the Norwegian wealth tax was a huge success. The "exodus" of wealthy people never happened (less than 100 individuals left). Tax revenue increased by 71.5%. No changes in business activity or investment. www.nber.org/papers/w35854

Taxing Entrepreneurial Wealth: Evidence from
Norway, 2021-2025
Marius A. K. Ring
WORKING PAPER 35854|
DOl 10.3386/w35854
ISSUE DATE October 2026
Whether imposing higher taxes on business owners adversely affects business activity by constraining investment and inducing capitalist flight is a central question in the ongoing debate on how to tax the ultra wealthy. To shed new light, I exploit a series of related Norwegian reforms during 2021-2024 that increased dividend tax rates, removed migration-related capital gains tax loopholes, and nearly doubled the effective marginal tax rate on business wealth. These reforms spurred international debate and, allegedly, an "exodus" of Norwegian billionaires (Financial Times,
2023). While I document clear effects on migration, these responses are concentrated among the top 0.1% of the wealth distribution and mostly confined to 2022 and 2023. My results indicate that at most 100 individuals left due to the reforms. I find no evidence of significant outmigration or reduced inflows of startup founders or inventors. I estimate that absent any outmigration, wealth tax revenues would have increased by 75% from 2021 to 2024. Reform-driven outmigration lowers the revenue gain to 71.5%. My findings further show that outmigrating owners' firms remain economically active and do not reduce investment. In a broader set of analyses, I examine whether business outcomes are affected, regardless of whether owners outmigrate, since firms may reduce investment both due to liquidity constraints or distortions to owners' savings decisions. I compare firms owned by Norwegian individuals subject to the wealth tax with firms owned by foreigners and other tax-exempt entities. By merging historical ownership data from Orbis with the Norwegian shareholder register, I perform these analyses on both Norwegian and foreign-domiciled firms.
Across settings, I find no evidence that Norwegian-owned firms pay out more dividends or invest less after the reforms,…

Sat next to a crying baby for the entire flight. I don't mind though. Feel like they were the only other passenger who truly grasped the unnatural horror of our undertaking. Man does not belong to the sky. The real monsters are those who remain silent.

one of my managers just revealed to me that he thinks the handbrake / parking brake is an "Emergency Brake" you're supposed to use if you're speeding and really need to stop suddenly, so I will make sure to never get in a car with this guy now 😶
