Its a boardgame so you could play it on boardgame sim probably, but Twilight Struggle is pretty fun when you play as the USSR. The Soviets are really strong in the early game and can steamroll the Americans

I’ve stayed out of this mess so far because engaging in these struggle sessions is usually a waste of time but if dunk culture is opposed by the mods the modlog should reflect that. Banning people with no reason given besides some pithy joke is just dunking isn’t it? Because looking at the modlog gives no indication for why users like Alaskaball are perma banned besides disagreeing with the decisions being made. From an outside perspective it just looks like a user who engages in effortposting and actively tries to make this site better is being banned for no reason. If we want to make this site better it has to come from both sides.

Trudeau bans Tiktok from operating in Canada, but not banning Canadians from using it? Essentially just forcing Tiktok to close their Canadian offices and lay off their employees.

Mr Beast ass faces

Anecdotally I have heard people today saying Canada needs to increase ties with China, a take that would’ve made you persona non grata just yesterday

I love this zigzagoon, bring him back

Same, at first I thought: damn I guess it is trans rights to kill people with plastic bags

How the hell is this 2 hours long with 34 million views?? The first 2 minutes felt like 10

Counterpoint: Commander on tabletop sim is really fun. Why yes my deck does cost 800 dollars on mtg goldfish because I put all the prettiest cards in it. How much did I pay? 5 dollars for tabletop sim on sale

I have a redmi note 11 and I find they work really well for being in that price range. Only downside is you need to get it drop shipped because they aren’t sold in North America, and the band comparability isn’t the same so the signal can be a little weak.

All the talk about TIFF cancelling the documentary about Russian soldiers is breaking my brain. It’s not enough that the documentary is already pro Ukraine by showing the Russian soldiers become disillusioned with the war, anything that shows Russians as human beings cannot be allowed in Western media. Knowing they would gladly show a documentary humanizing Nazis but Russians are a bridge too far

That’s because the monarch is the figurehead of head of state power, while the de facto head of state is the prime minister. So according to outdated laws they are technically seperate

This is my aoty it’s so good

Ah yes, creating a list of minority populations is always a good sign and not representative of a nation committing systematic genocide of said group

Nope not that one! The fact that it good be more than one album is fucked

Yea it is

Honourable mention to Grasshopper Manufacture for being weird and fun

1. FromSoftware because if Dark Souls 2 is your worst game (by popular opinion) in the last 15 years you’re doing a good job. Sekiro is also my favourite combat system in any game.

2. Remedy, I love their use of mixed mediums with FMV scenes like Dr. Darling’s tapes in Control. Alan Wake 2 is also a masterpiece of a game and I love how far they push what they are able to do in each game.

3. Paradox because no one does map game and number go up like they do. Victoria 2 is the first game I played from them and I’ve played everything since (the only map game I don’t like is HOI4)

If the international boxing community can’t form a new international governing body by early 2025 it will not be in the 2028 olympics. I’m assuming it will be the same for every olympics after that until they form something
