trump said he will enact collective punishment on the american people if the democrats don't give in to his horrific ideas
that's a war crime
that's how you commit a war crime

the thing about silent hill combat is you're meant to just be some schlub so it's supposed to be sticky and heavy and probably better to avoid xD

today beau is remembering ryuichi sakamoto
beau discovered his incredible work through alva noto just a week before his passing
never the less, his work is some of the most inspirtional for beau
if beau ever makes music at sakamoto's level, beau will have won

As always, today is a good day to support artists, writers, creators. If you have the means, maybe consider signing up for a Patreon. Buy a book, a game, a painting. Commission a new piece. Tell a creator what they mean to you. Signal boost their work.

flamingo culture is sort of a utopian dream
but as the andean flamingos (the inspiration for the book folk) are from... the andes xD... they have a bit of spanish affectation. although the team on the "far side" of the plnet have a lil bit of indonesian in their speech to reflect the geography also
