I'd have paid extra to have Varric+Bull commenting all the reveals! They've probably memorized every single thing Solas ever said during outings, down to the slightest intake of breath. Can't believe I fell for Varric is safe when he should have been muttering “that smug bastard” after each memory 😭

If you want to increase the birth rate you need to give people what they need most:

Universal healthcare
Affordable housing, education and childcare
A universal basic income
Paid time off
Robust public health
Reproductive rights and freedoms

It’s really not that hard.

Starlings are one of Britain's most beautiful birds. With the right light and up close, the colours are amazing. Very underrated!

RIP Ace. Another great talent lost to us.

amazing how you can write about culture professionally and still have no idea what’s going on in the world

Will Staley on Twitter writes: "Maybe this is an artifact of Elon's stewardship of this website, but the "No Kings" stuff — the language, the iconography, even the notion that Trump wants to be a *monarch* — is just totally foreign to me. I don't know where it comes from. Definitely not here."

Independent headline reads: "What order? Trump team ignoring 1 in 3 major judicial rulings against them, analysis finds"

ACLU headlines reads: "Supreme Court Grants Trump Broad Immunity for Official Acts, Placing Presidents Above the Law"

Reuters headline reads: "In a switch, Trump White House seeks to reward colleges for abiding by its ideological terms"

ABC News headline reads: "With Comey, Brennan, Soros, Trump steps up his retribution campaign"

Politico headline reads: "White House pauses new round of largely blue-state projects"

AP headline reads: "Trump’s moves against media outlets mirror authoritarian approaches to silencing dissent"

Yeah, every new Sim you make has me wondering just how patient you are to hunt down all these mods, download/install/update whenever EA breaks things again, and then have them in a cohesive aesthetic. My DA Sims are all over the place with style ngl, you have a super power
