this confirms so much of what i suspected was the case with veilguard’s development. it truly is a miracle this game was even released and, despite what others say, it ended up being a really good game (it doesn’t have any more flaws than any other da game tbh)

NEW: What went wrong with Dragon Age: The Veilguard? Why was the writing so tonally inconsistent? Why did it feel so shallow? Why were there so few choices?
Really, after ten years of turbulence, it was a miracle that anything came out at all. This is the story: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Deploying active duty marines to conduct operations against Americans on American soil is crossing a line that can't be uncrossed.
This is the type of act that a president who wants to suspend the constitution and end the rule of law would order, and that's exactly where we are today.

CNN: We have breaking news now from the Pentagon. CNN can now report that roughly 500 Marines are being mobilized in response to the protests in Los Angeles.

"I was this pedophile's biggest supporter until he was personally mean to me" seems like a bit of an own goal.
Musk says Trump is in the Epstein files and it is being covered up. This escalated quickly.

Main character energy is OUT, this summer we’re bringing NPC energy. We’re posted up at the bar dropping lore and suggesting side quests. We’re leaning casually near a locked door and saying “I don’t think you have the key for that” when someone tries the handle. We’re staring at a tree.

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.
