silksong's japanese localization is nowhere Near as 残念 as hollow knight's, which suffers from an Extreme case of Prose And Idioms That Were Way Above The Translator's English Comprehension Level; Native English Speaking Bilingual Proofreader Not Hired, but its errors r just. oof its not great

team cherry literally had hornet say it with her mouth...
hollow knight silksong screencap of the lost verdania throne room, a black stone building overgrown with lush green clover. premier wife guy (gender-neutral) green prince, a green and yellow male mantis, stands at the center of the room, looking at his and his late husband's thrones, which are conjoined so as to share their middle armrest for maximum hand holding. protagonist hornet, a head and shoulders shorter bug with a white v-shaped head and a red cloak holding a sewing needle, stands to the side. she is trying to comfort green prince by explaining that pharloom destroying his country and killing his partner is not his fault and there's nothing he could have done. hornet's dialogue, displayed at the top of the screen: "you were mortal bugs, caught beneath a being pale... devotion or destruction... these are the only fates my kind allow." by "being pale" hornet refers to pharloom's ruling deity grand mother silk, the orb weaver god of needlework and thread, who is a white higher being (god) like her father the pale king and his wife/hornet's surrogate mother figure white lady. such white higher beings are referred to as "pale beings" in-game. hornet speaks from the experience of having had front row seats to her father's behavior in the previous game's setting. elsewhere in-game she mentions struggling with similar possessive and controlling urges, which she inherited from her father.

screenshot of the silksong inventory menu, displaying a completed nail, mask set, silk spool, set of silk abilities, and set of silk hearts. in the items area, the hunter's memento (a magenta wax seal) is selected. its description reads "hunter's memento: seal symbol given in recognition of a true hunter, stamped in sticky goo. the memento can be displayed in a home." in the bottom corner, text reads "completion 100%" screencap of the hunter's journal menu screen in silksong. all visible enemies have a silver border around their menu images, indicating their hunt quotas are fulfilled. the enemy selected is the wingmould, the artificial silver enemy used for platforming, which returns from hollow knight. its description reads: "wingmould: false fly with a rune etched shell. a tortured mix of soul and void is caged within." hornet's bonus commentary says, "a crude construct of my father's fallen domain. only a fool believes that void can be fashioned to do their bidding." beneath this, text reads: encountered 235/235, completed 235/235 screencap of hornet's bellhome from silksong. the home has been upgraded with the desk, materium, phonograph, mini spa, and fairy lights. on its shelves sit six of the eight available mementos: on the top row are the grey memento and conjoined heart, in the middle is the hunter's memento, and on the bottom are the surface memento, hero's memento, and craw memento. missing from the middle shelf are the sprintmaster and guardian mementos it is possible to win from going above and beyond in the race and flea minigames. hornet lies on the bed. the ui in the upper right corner is set to reaper crest, displaying a full 10 masks and 18 silk. tools are set to poison cogflies (pogflies) and 3 way pins, and the selected silk skill is pale nails. cropped screencap of my steam ui's silksong page, with the true hunter achievement moused over. the description reads, "true hunter: receive the hunter's memento" and the achievement stamp shines gold around the edges. text underneath reads "unlocked on oct 21, 2025, 9:12 pm. 6.8% of players have this achievement"

#donate Rawan is younger than me and is in the same field as me. I am training to be a doctor and she's a young lab scientist working to help others heal. She is the one putting food on the table for her entire family in an active warzone. Would you offer her the kindness you all have shown me?

This is a really, really good article. I highly recommend it
More than anything, though, fascists set up real-life trolley problems to get people to agree to their horrific premises: that there must be people tied to the trolley tracks, that the trolley must run down the tracks no matter who is killed, that talking about the horrors that ensue is an offense against civility greater than the horrors themselves; that rescuing people from death is more dangerous to a properly ordered society than is condemning them to death; that stopping the trolley or fouling the track is a violent crime in a way that running people over with a train car is not. Fascists set up real-life trolley problems because it gives them a framework and justification for removing all options that a sensible and empathetic person would pursue, so they can convince their opponents that the pursuit of sensible and empathetic things is both wrong and impractical.

I cannot overstate just how awful this stupid fucking bill proposal is

- adding backdoors into encryption on OS level
- "sniff" every single message before it gets encrypted AND SAVE IT CENTRALLY
- let a goddamn hallucinating "AI" mark people as criminals

it needs to be stopped, post haste
