Black Geyser: Couriers of Darkness? Promise Mascot Agency
- Today
-
Finished Hollow Knight and strongly disliked it. Thus, I can safely skip Silksong. Currently playing Promise Mascot Agency. The game is incredibly enjoyable in both story and gameplay and feels like Saints Row without combat (the car can climb like a Tamriel horse and glide) and with every gang member having their own sub-plot. The main character is not customisable, but having an ace vegan who can and does beat the **** out of everything on his way while talking about the joys of the chosen family is quite welcome. Also this:

Will the games still be woke if they put all the ugly women in burqa? -
Nope, it just means that Disney are lazy. They think they need to add one very scary scene into almost every movie because it is their shortcut for emotional responses. Just as they so often kill off a family member to make the audience bond with the protagonist - they use shortcuts. The Lion King is not so complex a story that a five year old can't understand it. But a lot of five year olds get scared at that one scene.

https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/ukrainealert/putins-failed-summer-offensive-shatters-the-myth-of-inevitable-russian-victory/ This war doesnt have the same interest it use to but here is an interesting link how the Russian summer offensive has failed The main takeaway is the last few months we have heard lots of Russian commentary and propaganda that " complete Russian victory was any day now\inevitable " Its not evitable and many outcomes are possible

You can already pick a specific crisis to happen, so I doubt that's much of a concern, I just want the inverse option: the ability to exclude certain crises without turning off the entire DLC they are in. Cetana is also very different from every other crisis. Most crises shake up the galaxy with their rampages, as generally by the time they spawn borders are kinda entrenched, and the crisis forces the galaxy to take action, shaking up borders and the political landscape. As far as I can tell that's their whole point. Cetana is just "there", and unless you, as the player, do a bunch of stuff, and set up very specific fleet compositions to deal with her insane difficulty (compared to every other crisis out there) there's really nothing happening until she presses her "I win"-button. The AI won't lift a finger, not even when she declares war on the entire galaxy (not that, given her power levels, they'd be much help anyway), and until she does it's pretty much business as usual. She may be fun once, or for some challenge run, but by and large I'd call her boring, as there's a whole lot of nothing, then a single massive fleet battle that you hopefully win, and...that's kinda it... If you beat her the game is basically over as there's probably not a whole lot left to do until the victory year as I'd be rather surprised that anyone able to beat Cetana would be having any issues beating up the rest of the galaxy after, if need be. Honestly, design-wise she really feels more like an elaborate event-chain than an endgame crisis. Maybe in a game with multiple crises having her mixed in, I can see that being more engaging, but on default settings with only the single major crisis? I'd rather not have it be her.

Well, it clearly says it's a group of investors, with the Saudi PIF being one of them. Throwing "Saudi" into the title seems to be just clickbait. And personally, I think this may be the best thing to happen to all of EA's IPs, in my case especially the DA IP. -

Thank you, I'm an idiot. since the other baits were made on the workbench, I thought the other one was made there too. I had almost not used the cooking station before either, so i did not find the poached ****roach roast. No bug just stupidity.

Good news for military barber careers, and for the American Barber Association. An army of one... barber.

I made a cognac sour with amaretto because I ran out of cointreau for sidecars and it works out well enough, I imagine an inverted version of Morganthaler's Amaretto sour would hot better though.

https://www.cnn.com/2025/09/26/politics/hegseth-generals-meeting-warrior-ethos "The meeting is expected to resemble “a pep rally” where Hegseth will underscore the importance of the “warrior ethos” and outline a new vision for the US military, said three of the sources. He is expected to discuss new readiness, fitness and grooming standards the officers are expected to adhere to and enforce. “It’s about getting the horses into the stable and whipping them into shape,” said a defense official familiar with the planning. “And the guys with the stars on their shoulders make for a better audience from an optics standpoint. This is a showcase for Hegseth to tell them: get on board, or potentially have your career shortened.” Clown show.

A more recent example of a ruler flipping a democracy is Ferdinand Marcos. Like Trump, he was re-elected to a second term. He responded to protests with military power, then after two years he declared martial law, suspended habeas corpus, and rewrote the constitution. The country remained under martial law for almost a decade.

He's going to make them swear an oath of fealty to Mango Mussolini and purge those who would object to deploying the military for homeland defense against left-wing terror networks like BML and Antifa. There's also a government shutdown right around the corner for a little bit of a information blackout and some (or a lot of) convenient firings. There's always a chance he'll let them wage war against the sea. With this administration, we're not that far removed from the worst erratic behaviour that was ascribed to unpopular Roman empires in later written histories.

We can trust Trumps hubris and him wanting to take credit for ending this interminable ME conflict If Israel annexes the West Bank there will never be a peace agreement because what would the Palestinians have? -
