There have been many articles lately about US–China rivalry. But when the two countries no longer differ meaningfully in the underlying values that once defined that competition, I wonder: what exactly are they competing for now? I feel increasingly detached from these debates.

This is identical to Russia invading Ukraine. Illegally invading a country for their resources and likely killing thousands—if not more—is immoral and should not be supported by anyone with any shred of moral conscience.

Trump wanted this second term because
1. He wanted to avoid conviction for his crimes
2. He likes being President
He is a bad person and morally corrupt but it's his inner circle that is truly evil and pushing all the heinous shit.

Both Elden Ring and Baldur's Gate 3 somehow lost in this category the years they got nominated, so if Clair Obscur doesn't win this year, I'm just gonna assume that the judges for this category have zero taste in music

- Christopher Larkin, Hollow Knight: Silksong
- Darren Korb, Hades II
- Lorien Testard, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
