I don't think we'll ever get another sentence which sums up everything the New York Times embodies quite like "Some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily kill civilians".

Matt Cameron @mattcameron.bsky.social · 9d

hey @nytimes.com: there is no counterpoint here. There are no credible legal experts who would EVER say that the US military has any right or authority to blow civilian craft out of the Caribbean and kill their crews from afar without any provocation. There is no other side to this question.

"Some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily kill civilians not directly taking part in hostilities, even if they are believed to be smuggling drugs."

When the thrift store has the spirit but they're running out of paint

Window display with the words "queer joy belongs everywhere" and approximations of various queer pride flags, most of which don't have all of their colors

Genuinely this is what makes me want to play the game. More games need to follow Ico's example and have a hold hands button!
