Insurance claim filed, and got the results. Insurance will only cover 600€ out of the 3200€ of my trusted steed. Fuck this shit, I'm so angry at yet another stupid mark on this 2025 year.
What a bloody morning to wake up to... We had a break in into our depot and the thieves stole my trusty Scott CR1 Team triathlon bike I won tournament with 😭

I lived through this buzzing from hell as well, and let me tell you, it's PTSD that I can't recover from, even after almost 10 years out of the region. Fireworks, car engine popping, airplanes flying low, all these sounds break something in me and reminds me how much Israel screwed us up.
In Lebanon. Can hear the Israeli drone constantly now. I’ve only been back for a day but folks here deal with it 24/7, for months. It’s psychological torture. You can even see it, just flying around. The Israelis want to let everyone know that they can kill whoever they want whenever they want.

You know what's the worst part in this?
The Europeans are telling my family "oh you must be safe now away from the Middle East..."
Like ya Habibi I didn't have one bike stolen under my house every year in Lebanon.
"Oh but that's what insurance is for"
Insurance doesn't cover memories idiot

I find it absolutely hilarious to see the shot used for this article. Tommy used to roam around the so-called "gaming elites" with deep pockets in Dubai as far as 2013, and sadly brought a lot of them into the Intellivision Amico ponzi scheme.

I see you all and your admiration of that strange show, but just wanted to remind you that it should be boycotted... Unless you need to be reminded of Schnapp/Gelman and their proud “Zionism is Sexy” statements.

Not related, but would like to mention that most of these "awards" events need the crowd to look busy like it's the Oscars of gaming, yet they share the nomination without enough time to even apply for a US visa to be there in person... So yeah, just call it the "US Ads Awards" at this point.
If you work a studio that’s been nominated for a Game Award this year (or even years’ past), I would love to speak to you about your experience getting tickets! How many did your studio get? How many did you buy?
This can be anonymous. DMs are open and email is alyssamerc[at]gmail[dot]com.
