Given the country’s past, they’re now so incredibly averse to anything that could even be vaguely construed as criticism of jewish identity and sovereignty (by the Israeli government) that they will bend over backwards to defend all sorts of nonsense.
As a Brit, the analogy I’ve always enjoyed is that living in Canada vs the USA is like owning a nice apartment above a crack den. Although, I can’t speak to the validity of said statement.
And yet here you are trying your hardest
Oh nice. Didn’t realise these were out now as I don’t have Netflix. Definitely wanna check them out. Need to rewatch Ateroid City actually, I watched it with someone clearly not interested who kept talking!
I watched Citizen Kane for the first time. It’s one I’d never got round to despite it being so lauded. I’ll be honest, it being black and white and from 1941, I had prejudged it as I’ve not been a fan of other films of that era.
Thankfully, It’s pretty bloody good! In many ways it feels a more modern film than many that came after it. Yes, some of the acting is a bit hokey, but Orson Welles is great, and the directing, cinematography, and music are all stellar. There’s so many bold and interesting choices and often a tangible sense of heightened reality about it. It’s an odd film in that it outlines the entire plot in the first 10 minutes, but still hooks you with the central question. What is Rosebud? But, more importantly, who is Charles Foster Kane?
That’s awesome. I’m at the tail end of my first playthrough, but I’m already thinking about and all druid run with Halsin, Jaheira, Tav, and a respecced origin. I think druid is flexible enough to pull it off. How are you finding system shock, then? I never played it originally but have played many of its ‘spiritual sequels’ in terms of immersive sims. I was tempted to harken back when the remake came out but never bit the bullet.
Baldur’s Gate (in act 3 now), Lies of P, and just dipped my toe into Warhammer 40k Darktide. It’s quite nice having very different games to bounce between.
I’ve got Cocoon waiting a well. I heard it’s quite short so maybe I’ll boot it up on an evening where Lies of P is kicking my arse too much lol
I’ve just dipped my toes into Darktide on xbox gamepass. I love the visceral, impactful feel to melee combat so far. I have been playing with one friend so have come afoul of the lack of communication with others that don’t chat, but so far have found it to be acceptably stable in terms of gameplay
Some apple juices contain an ingredient called isinglass which is made from dried fish bladders. And some apples may be waxed with beeswax (from bees) or shellac (from bugs) before being juiced.
I was hooked by episode 4 when Bunk and McNulty are at the crime scene
Going in to season 2 can feel a bit jarring if you were expecting it to continue to be about the drug trade, but the show is about Baltimore and each season shows different aspects of the city. The police/drug trade, the docks, government bureaucracy, school system, and the media. For me it’s what makes the wire stand out.
I think they mean the American office. Which gets significantly better after the first season, when they stop trying to just copy the original and do their own thing.
It’s like reading dystopian sci-fi
Great minds think alike it seems 😆. Thanks
Good idea. Any suggestions from your search?
I do hear very good things. I’m a big fan of co-ops with hidden traitor mechanics, and of the early Alien films (which Nemesis is in no way affiliated with, honest), so this looks right up my street.
I’m going to be playing Nemesis tomorrow with some friends. I’ve not played it before and I’m rather looking forward to it
And I believe there are more players than ever right now due to the event. P.s. is there a fedi Hunt community? I’ve not seen one yet
Since they belong to the super family musteloidea, Wash Weasel seems more accurate. Definitely still closer to bears than rodents though.
