Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess | PC Steam Game | Fanatical Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess is a unique...

There's some talk about how Capcom are keeping the spirit of late PS2/Early PS3 game design alive with their recent releases.

If that's the vibe you're after, I HUGELY recommend Kunitsu-Gami, which sold very (comparatively) little and feels like a gorgeous modern remake of some obscure PS2 game.

I'm the other way around, I got symptoms of carpal tunnel with my regular tablet, and a screen tablet feels better for my body.

But this is the point! As much as possible, try to get the tool that works for YOUR body. Just because screen tablets are fancy doesn't mean they're right for you!

User dratsab huffman asks the question:

To amuse myself i researched revacholian nationalism as well as measure head's race theories etc etc and focused my character on "traditionalism".

Anyway, ive noticed that if i ever click dialogue options that are in tune with my character's political compass, i lose morale. Whats the point of having this as a mechanic if its going to be so detrimental and feels like the character doesnt believe he actually is this or something... is there anyway to overcome that kind of morale loss?

Recalcitrant Jester replies:
Being a fascist is a deeply demoralizing experience. You have to not only radically alter your worldview to make reality fit into your unhinged schema, but that worldview is predicated on the notion that the weakest, most unworthy degenerate worms on the planet are somehow overpowering and humiliating you on a moment-by-moment basis.

In mechanical terms too, the lowered morale also reduces your volition score—the more you indulge in your delusions, the less you are able to exercise self-control and self-awareness.

The point of fascism being mechanically detrimental—the ludonarrative theme—is that fascism is an unequivocally self-destructive ideology, the practice of which only serves to nurture that self-destructive urge and turn it outward. It's not like Dark Side points in KotOR where you can access cool new abilities and get to enjoy being such a nasty lil rascal; you are not supposed to enjoy being a fascist in Disco Elysium. Fascism is the act of self-deception in service of making your own life more painful, solely for the payoff of making life more painful for people you dislike.

Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back to a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

IT SAVES PUBLIC MONEY to house people.

I wanna also say this is part of why "medieval stasis" in fantasy settings pisses me off so much, because people act like technology was essentially stagnant between the invention of agriculture and the industrial revolution and NO IT WASN'T, it was just slow!

The Romans didn't have windmills!

I’ve been playing the original Resident Evil 2 for the first time as my before bed game and kinda shocked at just how well it holds up. It’s really incredible

Great video on Horses, now that the dust has settled and most people are capable of being normal while talking about it.

I also appreciate the wider look at Santa Ragione as a studio. They've done a LOT of interesting stuff over the years.

the basic theory of DOGE was that if powerful people said it was fine it didn’t matter what the law said.

I think proving that theory wrong is worth significant effort

Americans in the 2000s owe Shirow Masamune for calling him a pervert when his "fetish" is "adult women who are self-possessed and engaging in consensual sex"

Shit like this is why I get real suspicious when politicians start talking about fighting pedophilia. Because who they think are I pedophiles (queer people, teans woman) are nothing like actual pedophiles (men in respectable positions of power).

This is why "but what do we do with the sexual predators?" doesn't work as a response to abolition.

THIS IS WHAT WE DO WITH THEM NOW: WE MAKE SURVIVORS WRITE THEM APOLOGY LETTERS.

Kim Ross: 2005 -> 2026. I feel like there have been at least some artistic improvements.

One of the biggest misconceptions around the legal system surrounds the concept of civil judgments. People ask me all the time why any case settles when you can proceed to trial and receive far more money. Isn't that chickening out?

Here's what they don't tell you: most judgments are never paid.
