EXCITING NEWS: EMD's pricing structure has been announced and while that may SEEM boring it's actually very exciting because it's so reasonably priced. £12 at launch BUT with a 25% discount means it's like £9 and you are getting a LOT of funny game for that.

Just been made aware that the 10 year anniversary of XCOM 2's release is coming up very soon, and so I have a new date to pin all my hopes on for a Terror from the Deep announcement 🤞🤞🤞

Seems unfair that you only get to use the bouncy slide to get off a plane when things have gone wrong. The bouncy slide should be a treat they give to the best passengers who did the flight correctly.

This is pretty welcome, tbh. I saw a Reddit thread recently where someone asked if pressing Tab to auto complete a line of code in Visual Studio using Intellisense counted as "AI generated" and the replies were all like "yes, absolutely, this falls foul of the rules, you have to" and like what

Heard a lad earlier talking about ‘Belgian whistles’

I'm someone who suffers from quite bad second-hand cringe. If a stranger trips up a bit while walking down the street, I feel deep deep shame right down to my very core.

So I'm finding this extremely hard to deal with. Shaking with ghast.
It’s even more embarrassing than I imagined.
