It’s fine for powerwash simulator to be powerwash simulator but your fantasy and sf settings might benefit from a more whimsical gameplay

I watched a little pbs thing on the footprints at White Sands, NM, one thing I hadn’t realized was the sheer scale of the finds at that site

Yeah we still haven’t gotten around to putting in a 220 V circuit for ours, it can require a little planning but a regular 110 V circuit can keep you going no problem

I guess the map is fine, if suspiciously granular.

New map that is just all mustard yellow the entire country, and the legend says “cheeseburger”

He does know about awkward confrontations with teens in which he uses slurs so antiquated the students aren’t entirely sure who he’s insulting

Yeah no there’s numerous lines of evidence that confirm pre-Clovis habitation, it shouldn’t even be controversial at this point. Using the word “colonized” here maybe has some connotations you don’t want, though.

I have to admit that was a funny bit the first time I saw one. Not sure if it ever constituted a sound foundation for a multimedia empire though

Gonna be thinking about this lede for a minute.

(RNS) — Last month, the Rev. David Black stood in front of a Chicago-area U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility and spread his arms wide. Adorned in all black and wearing a clerical collar, the pastor looked up at a group of masked, heavily armed ICE agents on the roof and began to pray.

“I invited them to repentance,” Black, a minister in the Presbyterian Church (USA), said in an interview. “I basically offered an altar call. I invited them to come and receive that salvation, and be part of the kingdom that is coming.”

But when Black began to lower his arms a few seconds later, the agents responded to his spiritual plea by firing pepper balls, or chemical agents that cause eye irritation and respiratory distress, video footage shows. One struck Black in the head, exploding into a puff of white pepper smoke and forcing him to his knees. Fellow demonstrators rushed to his aid, and as the pastor rubbed his face in pain, the agents continued to fire.

“We could hear them laughing,” Black said.

Yeah no it’s rule zero for them too, just with caveats about how you should still point the gun at and then shoot the people they would like you to shoot
