Dream of the Jet-Black City releases May 14, 2026.

Dreams and Nightmares walk Onyxia's rain-soaked streets. Below, ancient secrets threaten to rot the city from within. Unless a lightning-catcher, a Nightmare-hunter and a Wailing Sister can stop it.

This quote from Michał Nowakowski is SO important: [Opening the Boston studio] "brought in a wealth of multi-layered experience, skills, and backgrounds. We strongly believe that this investment will pay off in the future, bringing the next Cyberpunk experience to a new level."

BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling.

🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states.

This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺

Point 14 shows just how much Trump considers himself to be the "President of Europe" right now (as he put it).

According to the 🇷🇺🇺🇸 "peace plan", 🇪🇺 would give the €210bn frozen Russian assets (plus €100 extra!) to the US, which would invest it in 🇺🇦 and receive the profits.

The plan, which is still a draft and could change, was presented in Kyiv earlier Thursday.

It shouldn't matter but let me point out that I was born a woman, my passport says woman, and based on how I look I have a high risk of not being let into a bathroom
(my only saving grace is being short).
(it shouldn't matter because EVERYONE should have access to restroom regarless of gender)
This is what we have to see every day, while struggling for employment, healthcare, housing and being treated like human beings

the value of human work (which I wish publishing would shout about, capitalise on, acknowledge) is that it comes from human hands. it's a scarf crocheted by a person, a hand-embroidered dress, a painting by an artist. & so forth.

I give Catholic bishops a hard time often for all the obvious reasons, but this is beautiful and loving, and I'm deeply grateful to hear it. This can change hearts and save lives.
Good statement from the US conference of Catholic Bishops

It's important for Europeans, and others from visa-waiver countries, to understand they don't have freedom of speech rights when visiting the United States.

The Trump regime is still deporting visitors for critical comments made online, because they can.

This also goes some way to explain why, given that there's a centre left party in power, and centre left parties take over 50%+ of the vote in polling, we *still* end up with centre-right talking points. First past the post is robbery and gross distortion of influence.
New YouGov poll. Could see the Tories in fifth place very soon.
