I'm nearly a year late to the party but Indiana Jones and the Great Circle absolutely fucks. A shame that it's not getting as much GOTY talk as a result of releasing so late in '24.
Granted, I think it released when it did because Machine Games didn't want to rush the launch, which good on them.

I literally think Mamdani went “you know, there was actually a President so popular that people kept electing him more than two terms” and Trump was like no way tell me how he did it
Trump posts:
“It was a Great Honor meeting Zohran Mamdani, the new Mayor of New York City!”
He included multiple photos of Mamdani in front of the portrait of FDR that Mamdani spoke with Trump about during his visit.

by this time next year, half of exurban and rural americans are gonna have claimed to have written in mitt romney
i have noticed that trumpers have shut the fuck up for the most part, just like these same people did when bush's approval went to the 20s. it was awesome, because you knew they didn't really believe he was wrong and were so mad all the mud-brained moderates turned on them
I don’t know if this reflects what others have seen in rural areas, but it has been a noticeable glimmer to me the last couple of times I was really out in the sticks.
