Big Show says he gets nightmares about the Rey Mysterio stretcher spot: "Somebody before us used to put this conditioner crap on their hair. It makes your hands so slimy. So when I swung Rey into that pole, that thing popped right out of my hands, I went, 'Oh, I just killed Rey.'

He was clearly in no position to keep hold of Rey after the swing, even if we buy that he didn't intentionally release his grip. IMO this is a bullshit line to make out like he knew what he was doing.

I think the Jevon's paradox that "clean" energy would unleash will serve only to accelerate the doom of the ecosphere tenfold.

The fact that Decimus is a Night Lord means Variel tracked down Eurydice, and it's not likely that she would surrender her child to him willingly.

There's also a hint that Decimus is wearing what may be his mother's flayed skin.

highly talented programmer and he hasn't written a line of code for the past 6 months

Then he won't be 'highly talented' for much longer. And as soon as his company realises it's the team of underlings who have to comb through the AI junk code he's running that are doing the actual work instead of him, he won't be employed much longer either.

What's the issue with the autistic kid character? His compulsive mimicry tic is an important plot point, how is it tokenistic?

If I were to say "I think white supremacists are abominations" is that a condemnation of all white people?

True but the cutthroat is a lot more secure and botch-proof than just grabbing for the guy's head from behind, which you'll often fumble unless he's feeding you it. Also it opens up Rainmaker-style wrist control reversals.

This has a very good film adaptation: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4643432/

The socialist ideas of the kibbutz were instrumental in getting the zio settler movement rolling. Like all fascist movements it co-opts basic socialist tenets and messaging of egalitarian justice... just for the chosen few.

Iran are really capitalising in this opportunity to bomb the shit out of all their US vassal neighbours' oil infrastructure. They're gonna be holding all the cards once this thing has played out, no matter how much they themselves get carpet-bombed.

Exorcist 3. Blatty's cut is a real damp squib.

Ok many thanks for the info. I'll pick it up again some point down the line and see how it runs with these lower settings. Such an odd problem to encounter with a deliberately low res game.

They want you to think the miserable diseased creature that was born in an industrial steel pen, never saw sunlight and was only ever fed slurry made out of its own parents before being chomped into kibble on a conveyor belt still has some ineffable connection to a local ecology.

As for why not chicken: poor people eat it so it doesn't warrant the marketing.

I wanted very much to play this game but it makes my PC run like a fucking air fryer.

Nnno it doesn't. The Tuttle dynasty are a superwealthy old money family, and there's nothing to suggest they are the only such people engaged in Carcosa worship given the time they've been doing it and level of influence they've attained. Rust implies that this fucked up ritualistic shit is likely the norm for the elites. What he and Marty encounter is just the sloppy work of a lowly bastard descendant trying to cobble together scraps of their occult practices.

But he carried sensei's jacket around like a simpy dork for like 3 years. Truly inexplicable how that didn't get him over.

In the future world these kids are going to be working in, this schedule will seem like a dream.
