We are living through one of the biggest crackdowns on free speech in academia in history. Liberals are complicit as they castigated anti-genocide protestors and their publications fearmongered about things like wokeness and trigger warnings while the right planed McCarthyism 2.0.
The Provost at Texas Tech University had denied a talented and extremely productive faculty member tenure, despite 90% approval at the department and college levels, because of his outspoken critique of Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
Academic freedom in the US is a myth.

Also, every celebrity man accused of sexual violence has a little pseudo-journalist constructing DARVO narratives for them on social media now.

At the same time the Epstein Files are reinforcing how protected sexual abusers really are, Neil Gaiman is using the nightmarish sexual violence allegations against him to market his next book. His DARVO defense is the first selling point. Rape culture is everywhere and unavoidable.

![A screenshot from the below web port of Super Monkey Ball 1. The titular ball lacks a monkey. The caption reads:
YOU KNOW WHAT, FUCK YOU
*un-[monkey]s your [ball]*
[The "monkey" and "ball" are ripped from the game's logo]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:rwa725k63i3pdybb74zubckh/bafkreifexovzuptuyuue4kixhs6nvhpsb7whwohr555nkcvcfhg3hcitpy@jpeg)

I made some graphics explaining the basics of charge partitioning and how the system works in Under Night in particular.
I might do a followup for 3rd Strike, since understanding the charge reset timer is a big deal there.

No mechanic is "bad". Either it works for a particular game or it doesn't. All mechanics are just tools to deliver different experiences. An ideal world is not one without a particular mechanic, an ideal world is full of fun games that find a place for each mechanic, and tunes them appropriately.

I think Collectathons were the incremental games of their time, but failed to reach the same market success.
"People like collecting things, so let's give them a lot of things to collect!"
Incremental games more accurately identified the hedonic treadmill. Gains on gains.

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)
Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.
I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.
