The extent to which Games Done Quick has helped to steer the larger speedrunning community - one of the most hardcore video game enthusiast subcultures there is - into becoming something so welcoming, inclusive and supportive astonishes me

In Finland, charging fees for school tuition is illegal, which means rich kids have to mix with normal kids.
That means rich families had to make sure the schools their children attended were good, which in turn prompted the wealthy to invest in public education.

Finland, take a bow.

Canada (where I live) really needs to get their shit together; one of the better ways to defend ourselves against tariffs I bet. Major wealth tax, go!

“We are told by leaders that we are the future. But when it comes to the ongoing pandemic, our present is being stolen right in front of our eyes.”

Incredible speech by Violet Affleck who warned about the ongoing dangers of COVID & Long Covid, & advocated for masks and clean air at the UN today!

Ah yes, this is important background info. Sinclair is Bond-level supervillainry and more people need to be aware of it.
