By now companies must know that games based on an IP are almost always trash. Usually the IP-games that are supposedly great turn out to have have average gameplay and marketed hard with advertising spends larger than the development costs ( cough I'm looking at you Spider-Man).

Nanny state etc. What do people want? A government that looks after them? The freedom to vote means the freedom to die of chicken-egg-poisoning. Dying of food poisoning is a fundamental British value that woke experts will have to rip from my stinking hands. (or something like that.)

Who actually cares which party wins which seat? Surely the idea that voting for any of these chancers will make any meaningful difference has been long given up? Regardless of whomever has more seats in Westminster, their agenda is to continue the reversal of post-WW2 social gains.

I saw that one of the polls predicted the tories would be left with only 25 seats.

That’s 25 seats too many!

He claimed that he wears a hat following a hammer attack which left him hospitalised and severely scarred.

Yes, it’s an idea for an alternate reality where Labour retained some belief in equality and wealth redistribution. Sadly we live in a hellish neoliberal mirror universe where the Labour leadership salivate whenever the Davos Boys ring austerity’s bell.

Time for UK to become Limitarian. Tax the excessively rich at 100% above £10 million. No one needs more money than that.

You could be right. I listened to a Tory minister on the radio today talking about ending anonymity on the internet and - more interestingly - about silo-ing parts of the internet so that certain groups, such as children, could only access certain "versions" of the internet. I wonder whether that's the longer-term agenda.

I grew up with even less access. At school we used paper and ticker-tape to program computers. And there was no tv (which was black and white anyway) during the day. Those were the days. Boring as fuck!

This apparently "spontaneous" group of "ordinary mothers" looks surprisingly media-trained. I'd be interested in knowing more about the founders. When the "keep our schools open during covid" group were examined they turned out to be a puppet of a right-wing thinktank.

HMRC claim that only 5% of UK don't pay their taxes.

That 5% is worth £36 billion a year!

I've got my suspicions about who that 5% are. Damn you you single-parent, new trainer-wearing, work-shy benefit claimants! Damn you!

Just looked at Sleek (which I hadn’t heard of before) and looks pretty good. Thanks. I’ve been using the Obsidian plugin which has been fine up until now.
