Hm, so is this PETA just being PETA? PETAs death squad arrives in Houston

Handled the online pre-registration stuff for my return to university life. Dang. All the flashy "student portals" and "dashboards with apps" to handle all of this. Part of me is feeling all old man grumpy about this use of flash technology.

So word is... New Indiana Jones movie won't feature Shia Labeoufs character

And Syfy cancels Dark Matter

Princess Mako officially leaves her royal status to marry a commoner with a "bright smile" For that touch of Japanese politics of a sort...

Heh. Distractify -Fox Poll

I suppose in a sense this could go up in Politics, but eh, it might be more for the conspiracy theorists... - Why are so many Russian diplomats dying?

Penzance world record attempt failed due to pub

Americas Clowns say new IT film costing them money

Ah, see, to me that slides politics not weird news.. That and juggling too many things to pay attention to everything. Edit: And I probably got distracted by the korean bbq.

On the law enforcement aspect... NBC - Utah nurse arrested for refusing to give a patient's blood to police without a warrant

Gamespot - Shadow of War adding dlc character to honour developer who died

Plus, as ME Andromeda has shown, having all single player content and care stopped while they continue to push the Co-op/Multiplayer full of micro-transactions is a wee bit annoying. Sure, the multiplayer aspect is "optional" , but people don't pick up a ME game (or similar) to play multiplayer. For me it's all about having an interesting (or silly) story to enjoy and have fun with, and poke at what consequences might spiral out from my actions as I play through. So while on a certain level, I can't rant against optional multiplayer, it does seem silly to strip away resources that could go towards improving the main focus of the game. Most of my gamer friends are in different countries and on wildly different time zones to me, so it's not as if I'd ever really get into regular co-op play with them, and having to deal with random strangers who get introduced to you for half an hour, who might or might not speak the same language, does tend to suck any thought of actual strategy away turning it into a general crapshoot.
