I’m almost finished playing Zelda: Wind Waker for the first time in about 10 years.

Firstly it feels crazy to me that its now been as long since the HD Wii U version was released as it was from that release to the original.

Great game though, amazed I still remember where almost everything is. Exploring the ocean in the first half of the game has always been one of my favorite parts. It does a great job of capturing a whimsical sense of adventure for me.

My biggest criticism of the game is that it feels like its about 2 dungeons light. There should have been one on the Great Fish Island for the last pearl before you get the Master Sword and there should have been one more after that with a 3rd sage.

I remember this being commonly held belief back in the day that the game was probably a bit rushed, but it definitely sticks out more to me now than I had recalled.

Overall still one of my favorite Zelda games, I hope one day they go back to making this sort of style of 3D Zelda because the new ones just don’t do it for me.

I've done what I feel is a pretty good job ignoring US election (canadian here), but the liberal head loss over this I sadly cannot ignore. Otherwise reasonable people acting as if the world has ended when this man has already been president ? Some of the same people who agreed with me that KKKamala is not in any capacity a "harm reduction" vote acting as if martial law has just been declared or some shit ? Maybe I'm just the disagreeable asshole but I just find this behavior sad.

Obviously fuck Trump should go without saying how pathetically shitty that dude is but I mean come on. Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians have been murdered and terminally wounded under the democrats, not trump. Roe v Wade was overturned under the democrats, not Trump. We have witnessed one of the most acute transfers of wealth to the ultra rich under the dems, not the republicans. The war in the Ukraine started and was goaded on under Biden's admin, not Trump.

I'm not trying to say in any sense that things will get a single iota better with republicans in office but I feel like I'm taking crazy pills seeing the reactions online and from people I would consider to be rational individuals. They might even be right that these things will get worse under another Trump admin more quickly or in different ways than if Kamala won, but still I find the reaction to it ridiculous.

Not that any american needs to or should care about my opinion considering I'm relatively removed from the situation but like, am I being unempathetic or unreasonable ?

I’m going to extremely highly recommend the movie Mandy from 2018 with Nicolas Cage. Its sorta a horror movie but its mostly just an absolutely bizarre and unsettling experience.

Second half might be bit gory I honestly cant recall but I don’t think too bad. Anyway I cannot recommend it enough if you like freaky and disturbing type horror movies.

Does anyone in this country want war ? Sure there are some deranged PMC neolibs out there but I spend most of time around median or below income people, aka most people, and I'd say even the most reactionary amongst them have no appetite for war. All vibes based analysis really but the disconnect between the "average" person here and the actions/rhetoric of our government just seems so far removed. Not sure what to make of it really.

Anyone else rapidly approaching 30 and have no clue what to do with their life cause they didn't think they'd make it this far ? Absolutely no clue what I should do career wise, never have had less of an idea. If any comrades have some worldly insight it would go a long way for me right now

Belgium is due to play Israel in the UEFA Nations League and apparently all cities in Belgium have refused to host the match at their stadiums due to the political circumstances. Article says the match might be played in Hungary.

France and Italy are also in this same group, I am curious to see if the same thing happens. The fact that Israel is in the European football association/competitions at all tells you all you need to know about the place.
