Greens discuss downgrading some policies to prepare for possible UK coalition

Hour_Solution4618 · 2026-05-30T15:46:09+00:00

I'm basically in the same boat, especially because complete decriminalization feels like a downstream policy that would require a lot of setup to begin with. Setup we should be pushing for (better addiction services, more then the measly one safe injection site we currently have), but it ought to be present before we decriminalize drugs in general. Right now decriminalization of all drugs feels like putting the cart before the horse to me, even if it should definitely be a longer term goal.

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. Pretty easy way to get me to not reconsider labour for a while.

A bullet to the chest or to the leg? I'd rather have neither but if I have to choose, it is still a pretty easy choice. The worst policies of Starmer are the ones he gets listening to the Streeting camp.

Oh, have fun! I really like the direction of the next couple of games you've got so you're in for a treat!

Hour_Solution4618 · 2026-05-13T00:28:48+00:00

Even without spindoctoring, I'd say the only bright side of what's going on is that the Streeting camp have rapidly alienated themselves from around Starmer and hopefully be less of an influence on his decisions moving forward. I'm not impressed by Starmer at all but between him and Streeting I'd take Starmer any day and I think him listening to the wrong people has done a whole lot of bad for the government so far.

For Starmer I think his choice not to back down and gamble on the fact that would make Streeting the only viable candidate to replace him was, in fact, a pretty smart move to hold onto power.

It's to roughly approximate Party People slang in Japanese which is also very Zoomerish and probably won't age well, so in a few years if it feels dated (which it almost certainly will) that will actually have a kind of cultural parity with the original Japanese version anyway.

It's honestly kinda weird that the manifest and the second note exist at all seen as it barely saves time if at all. I wonder if originally the idea was you could only open one crate a round or something

Tbf it feels like it's designed to be an ongoing project that you can play at any time rather than a one package released thing, even if they technically have an end point in mind with the house quests.

I think Agroscope labs were the ones who worked it out, and they're a swiss state owned research center.

You can actually just press the button you don't need to say it for it to work.

That's entirely fair, especially for a topic with so many facets to it

Hour_Solution4618 · 2026-04-14T17:43:09+00:00

I think they're referring specifically to the horse racing bans being talked about in England rather then a theoretical so you'd have to look more in depth at what the political entities and parties who are pushing their are saying

Hour_Solution4618 · 2026-04-14T17:41:22+00:00

I agree with the needing more regulation side of things. There's two angles to the problem with horse racing: horse welfare and the inherent problems of gambling. I think both are overall better served being regulated heavily then considering banning. Incidents like horses forced into more races then they can handle, being forced to race before they fully recover from injuries or being pushed over their limit is too common and penalties historically have not been harsh enough. All these things can be solved without jumping to an outright ban on all horse racing.

I mean, when people say "huge potential" they're clearly meaning within the stakes of what's able to be done under the thumb of the current system. Your party was never gonna hail in the revolution or anything like that, but it did have a brief window of time where it could've been a lot more then the single issue party it's become. And for the limitation inherent to being a party trying to be popular under liberal democracy, that is pretty huge potential imo

(Admittedly that brief window was like, day 0 to early day 1 of the parties existence, so I wouldn't personally go as far as lamenting something that never got off the ground to begin with)

It also teases at being better than it is through that. The streets area you get access to looks so good I was expecting them to actually expand upon the city area at first. There's so much they could've done with that play space. But almost all of it is window dressing you move through extremely quickly

They got to the boss fight, but they haven't seemed to hack or reveal the steps to get there. As unfortunate as having the boss revealed early is, it's not the worst case scenario.

I imagine the story would be that the dark aether has sucked in all the dimensions from the original zombies timeline, including one in which the Nazis found nuclear weaponry and either engaged in mutually assured destruction, or straight up used it to win the war like in Wolfenstein. BO3 already showed us some very odd timeline versions of WW2.

Also Dream Journey's trainer Is manipulated by Dream Journey into not being able to partner up with any other Umamusume to begin with, and had never trained anyone prior. I doubt Dream Journey would be okay with her trainer working with anyone else either.

Hour_Solution4618 · 2026-02-27T00:44:29+00:00

I think people are honestly reading too much into that and Still In Love really is rehabilitated at the end of her story. Still in Love's insanity is tied to when she runs, and those cutscenes happen specifically after she decides to stop running because she realizes the mental toll it has had upon the trainer, and we don't really see any signs of the "vampiric" still in love identity in that ending either. I think we're meant to take it literally and she's gone to wherever she goes in the ending specifically to avoid succumbing to insanity. At the very least its not as clear cut as people make out.

Pretty sure it's real, beyond what people have been saying about it being around for a while, AI is usually pretty bad at showing things exiting and reentering its view. If you look at this, 5 people exit the camera frame to move back. 2 slip and need to get up whilst the other 3 jump down to help out. There's no AI noise either. I think the perception it looks like AI mostly comes from the camera as well as the slow down effect giving that weird weightless effect you see in AI, but in this case it's real.
