Tres-Bashers is also from the developer of You Are Peter Shorts, another extremely funny (and weird) metroidvania with Smash Bros-like combat. Also, you are Peter Shorts and so are all the other enemies, give or take a few mutations.
Ain't a half-bad knockabout party game too, thanks to good combat

Doomerism and hope are the same thing: the belief that the present world will endure
It is correct to be a doomer. We are in fact doomed. It is correct to have no hope. That is factually true.

oh wow i didn't realize that if you indicted a foreign head of state you could just sneak into their country and nab then in the night
Vance pushes back and says this was not illegal, arguing "Maduro has multiple indictments in the United States for narcoterrorism. You don't get to avoid justice for drug trafficking in the United States because you live in a palace in Caracas."

New AIWeirdness post: ChatGPT will apologize for anything, including stuff that didn't happen. It's not reflecting on stuff it did wrong, it's improv.

it was already visible in the first Trump admin that he wanted more serf countries, subject to the US's whims but not owed anything in return
Muito curioso esse desejo de anexar a América Latina ao mesmo tempo em que expulsa imigrantes pra campos de concentração com trabalho forçado e tortura, inclusive os com direito à cidadania norte-americana. Parece nazista, fala como nazista, fede como nazista

Super Mario RPG features Jinx, a miniboss noted for his small size. The prototype version of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga shows that he was planned to reappear in that game. Possibly to increase the comedic factor, he was made even smaller.

Perhaps now people will stop wishcasting about the US military refusing illegal orders. That's not a thing that happens. The 100% compliance rate with using civilian boats for target practice was a bit of a tell.
