It’s frustrating how common this sentiment is. As long as people think there is justification for dehumanizing others, it’s easy to manipulate them as to who that “other” is. Chauvin is the product of a shitty system we can celebrate when that system is destroyed.
These kind of initiatives are actually pretty great. Like most english language media, video games are pretty American dominated. Funding to games with unique perspectives could lead to some really interesting projects. I played a really interesting game called Black Book a while back. It was a fascinating look into Finno-Ugric culture in pre-revolution Russia (and a pretty good game, too). I’d love to see more titles like that
Can’t say I expected to see rimworld up here
I thought it was bad where I live, but when I was in OKC it was so much worse. I’ve never been anywhere so hostile to pedestrians. Sidewalks were jagged and broken and just ended randomly wherever they thought they could squeeze more parking in. Despite being a small city there were highways EVERYWHERE. You could never escape the roar of traffic. My buddy who lives there is in a gated community and even if there was anything around (there wasn’t) you couldn’t walk anywhere anyway because the gate is pressure sensitive to the weight of a car so you can’t actually leave unless you’re driving. I can only hope the next generation of planners can mitigate some of the last generation’s damage in our lifetime
I bought a glue trap once and caught a rat. The poor thing was whining for hours until I finally had to snap it’s neck by hand. Never again. I don’t know why these things exist
