Broke that mission's back, Mayan Referendum or something in Tropico 6, realize I don't really play politics at all well, hah. Need to work on that in sandbox I guess.. Only 1% of players have actually done so, I guess no one plays the campaign at all.

Sort of sad that there's a base to appeal to that love Gallagher or his type.

Well, hopefully they do - could be a good revenue source. RPS sums up pretty much all gaming furor.

I am outraged at this news.

Finally a tricky mission in Tropico 6, as it requires political management which I'm terrible at. Not sure which 4 of the factions to suck up to, I guess Capitalists, Industrialists, Religious and Intellectuals may work - although right now both Capitalists and Communsits love me so may not have to pick one of the pairings, heh.

Was wondering why the hell my Tropico 6 mission was not proceeding...turns out the annoying request from the Broker I ignore routinely was part of the main questline, hah. Those requests are annoying as hell with the same voice lines used over and over and over.

Aard is fun with the chilling effect. Finished Hearts of Stone, let Gaunter eat Olgierd's soul and told him to **** off with his offers. On to Blood and Wine which I enjoyed a lot more. Is nice not having it rain every damn moment of the game.

Have to paint a fuller picture of why people are generally dismissive of them suffering far worse than HK. Then again, these days I am not sure many people know where Chile or Bolivia even are.

Benefits of WFH. Well, if your workplace's culture doesn't have an issue with it. Never understood why it is, face to face interactions are overrated.

Sure Volo. Was more along the lines of green privilege (well, if you're in the US, seems multi-colour currency is popular around the world)

In terms of people caring - Iraq, Chile, Bolivia, etc. is just usual third worlder brown people dying. HK is a developed nation, has good marketing.

Black Friday being a thing outside of the US sure is silly. Next week will hopefully be calm as the markets slow down for the US holiday.

ICQ still has a decent chunk of users I think, is big in Russia ? Seems like problem with the 3rd party set up they are using. Dumb youths on Twitter though

Wonder how Nunes' fight with the cow is coming along.

Only film where I felt it added something was MI : Ghost Protocol, when he's on the Burj.

Finally got a challenging mission in Tropico 6, although not too bad - I have glorious boat manufacturing and offices so money's sorted. Game sure has oddball behaviour, with workers preferring to live in a shack near their work rather than a tenement or apartment down the road. There are some funny moments when a 'Rich' citizen chooses to live in a shack though.

Seems like the kind of thing I read some random screeching about every week on Reddit, to be honest.

Well, you're not dead. There's that.

I think we pay $15 or so here. What was funny was seeing ticket prices in Edinburgh for 15 GBP, hah.

Made my daily standup meetings more bearable by playing the Top Gun soundtrack in the background.
