Omg Crystal Caves, haven't heard that name in a long time! Jump Man was my jam.

Far out!

Oh wow that's really sad to read. The part where she stole a 1.9k coat from a small shop and then went back the next day to steal 5k of stuff, I really can see how that's mental illness.

Politicians have enough money to pay for therapy, I think the wider problem here is the way mental health is still stigmatized and people just try to power through it.

I don't think his core voters care as long as their house prices keep rising.

Rents have just gone up again where I live. Council rates are rising by around 15-17% in at least two two regions.

Carmageddon is the one I remember thinking was amazing. The one with the humans not the zmbies. Also, Quake ha ha ha.

I never got into FPS though.

"I'm so embarrassed about what's really going on, I'm still letting it sort of absorb in, I really, really didn't even have any idea how much this is actually gonna offend people, when all I was doing was mocking and teasing myself,"

That's some internalised racism there. I hope she is able to really benefit from being called out on it.

Having played Morrowind obsessively when it first came out, I downloaded it on Steam and ... geez it makes you work hard now that we're usef to quest journals and maps. Also you're in a potato world. But I still have amazing crystal clear memories of flying around netch farms at night and stuff. I think maybe it offloaded a lot of the image processing onto our brains or something!

Me too. I like them, and I always have a dumbphone as well as a smartphone.

Oh good, I missed it last time.

I guess you could transition to online work at some point?

I think you're right.

I used to teach first year undergraduates and the first time they heard the American term "people of colour" invariably led to a lot of confusion and offence because many of them (especially PoC themselves) initially thought it was insulting.
