Between Blue Prince, Clair Obscur, Hades 2, and Silksong, Best Indie this year is the Thunderdome of the Game Awards. Each would be the clear frontrunner in most other years.

I'd be happy with any of those games winning and since 3/4 have GOTY noms too, I wonder if award splitting will happen

Screenshot of the introduction for the Wikipedia page, "Imperial boomerang." It reads: The imperial boomerang is the thesis that governments that develop repressive techniques to control colonial territories will eventually deploy those same techniques domestically against their own citizens. This concept originates with Aimé Césaire in Discourse on Colonialism (1950) where it is called the terrific boomerang to explain the origins of European fascism in the first half of the 20th century. Hannah Arendt agreed with this usage, calling it the boomerang effect in The Origins of Totalitarianism (1951). According to both writers, the methods of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party were not exceptional from a world-wide view because European colonial empires had been killing millions of people worldwide as part of the process of colonization for a very long time. Rather, they were exceptional in that they were applied to Europeans within Europe, rather than to colonized populations in the Global South.

This is about as neutral as you can be while still being honest about who Charlie was and the exact nature of his opinions. Insane they'd fire him over this

Sorry, but this should be illegal and in a just society, grubhub would be sued to oblivion for this kind of unnecessarily misleading doublespeak

A screenshot from the TV show Community that has become a meme in which a character says they can tolerate something awful, but draw the line at animal cruelty. In this case, it reads "I can excuse racism, xenophobia, dismantling of fed gov, suspension of individ rights, sending of folks to concentration camps, and general authoritarianism, but I draw the line at my investment portfolio being wiped out"

class solidarity exists for the rich. the way these tech billionaire ghouls are all aligning publicly now that the gov't is on a full authoritarian-fascist tilt has been insane to witness.
