Sometimes you get given a mug and surely you don't throw away mugs that aren't broken?

BBC: "There is no suggestion that appearing on video ordering the destruction of an inhabited planet implies any wrongdoing, and many people who are featured in Star Wars have denied any wrongdoing in relation to Alderaan."

My friend Basti made a game! #Wishlist
My self-made point‑&‑click adventure "Venice After Dark" is approaching release. I couldn’t be more excited. Mysterious, atmospheric storyline, mind-bending puzzles, and thousands of atmospheric hand‑drawn visuals. Wishlist? Yes, please => www.VeniceAfterDark.de

There should be a word for these people who are against anti-fascists.

I once asked the Vatican Observatory how they decide on the Easter date every year and got a long reply. And I wasn't even a journalist.
Can confirm that being a journalist is occasionally very sick indeed.

Great to have a #TalksAtGoogle event in the office again, it's been a while. And the Map Men were fantastic guests, pretty much the only channel I smashed the bell icon for. #ThisWayUp

Great to hear, congrats! Didn't realise TR-49 was built in Godot. I played around with it a bit and it seems fun to use.

Yes, that's where I look, too. It doesn't count users who just open the app and read, so there might be more lurkers.

It's closer to 1M daily _active_ users though. I like it here, but I wish more people had moved. Especially because it has gotten so bad over there that whoever didn't move by now is unlikely to move at all.

So basically one Radio Times and a Red Bull. 👍

I can only recommend listening to the whole episode. Listening to a planespotter as he counts human beings in shackles as they're disappeared from their neighborhood & country so that at least their number is documented is just shocking, despite all the numbness from all the news coming from the US.
At Minneapolis airport, @maitlis.bsky.social watches on as shackled ICE deportees board an aircraft.
"It's one of the most dystopian, the most chilling things, I think i've ever witnessed."
"The plane doesn’t have a name or number, it’s a 'dark plane' - it doesn’t officially exist."

I go to the Nazi Kneipe every night and talk to the Nazis in there, and I write in the newspaper about how it is in the Nazi Kneipe, and I pay them some extra money so the Nazi Kneipe owner rings a bell when I come in and allows me to wear a badge with the Nazi Kneipe logo. That'll show them!

The thing with arguments by people on Twitter is they're arguments by people who are super ok with Nazi salutes and had almost a year to deteriorate further from there.

Kept playing for a long, long time. The way BP's world keeps zooming out, and keeps delivering satisfying responses to the player's curiosity, is unmatched for me. Truly one-of-a-kind.

I don't buy much "stuff" these days that could be digital instead, but I got weak with the beautiful special edition of Broken Sword.
