Under Heaven or Hell by @moonlustgames.bsky.social

You wake up in Hell with no memory of what happened. Will you escape with your soul intact, or will your path become forever tied to those who linger within the flames?

Today is Liberation day in Italy 🇮🇹 , when we celebrate the defeat of nazifacists 80 years ago, the partisan resistance movement and the end of the war.
May all your deeds in real and imaginary worlds be heroic and inspired by this day! ⚔️✊

Israel is in the hands of a fascist government, doing inhumane things. The material executors and all people responsible for this and all other atrocities in Palestine and Israel should be brough to justice.

FOR NO REASON WHATSOEVER, I am re-upping this story @swin24.bsky.social and I wrote about the last Trump administration. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
Trump's White House Was 'Awash in Speed' -- and Xanax
Under Trump, the White House Medical Unit was “like the Wild West,” and staffers had easy access to powerful stimulants and sedatives, sources say.

The EU getting its act together has never been more important. We know how to stand up to oligarchs, billionaires and dictators, and what happens when the wants of the few are put before the needs of the many. Let’s become the pluralistic world power we should have already been long ago. #fEUture

Optimist: the cup is half full

Pessimist: the cup is half empty

Game designer: the cup support both refilling or emptiying affordances, so we need to come up with a user experience that allows both options

Optimist: the cup is half full

Pessimist: the cup is half empty

Linguist: quantities are described with regard to a reference state; thus we can efficiently convey whether the cup was more recently full or empty
