The Malacca Strait carries ~1/4 to 1/3 of the world's shipping and is one of the main routes to/from China, Japan, South Korea etc. It is such an important route that its physical parameters define a category of ship (malaccamax). By any meaningful metric it is important.
Isn't the Obsidian game Tyranny based on that kind of concept (albeit in a more ancient setting)?

If only they were just 120 minutes long.

I will support any New York mayoral candidate who admits bodegas are just convenience stores and everywhere in the world has them
The hitbox on the tail end of his robes feels a bit funky and was responsible for a lot of the damage I didn't mean to take on the fight
She convinced the NYT to pay for her holiday here and she shat out an article about how Australia was not "in the midst of a raging culture war" the same weekend that Nazis were marching in Melbourne

BRS' background (well-off family, father a high-ranking judge who has done a lot of work in the army reserve as a lawyer) is also worth noting
At least in the theatrical release the action scenes was shown in 48 FPS and the more standard dialogue stuff was in 24 FPS (by just doubling up the frames).
Mostly.
The transitions were not always seamless either.
The second movie changing frame rates mid-scene was a *wild* filmmaking decision
A chart used by Trump to push misinformation about migration to America. It states that Trump left office in April 2020.
Trump at the RNC showing off how much he really loves the chart.
Yeah (note the arrow and text at the bottom). It's not the only bit of bullshit on the graph but it's the most obvious.
It also ties into the assassination attempt (he was looking at it when the bullet grazed him) which lead to some ridiculous scenes at the RNC.
The immigration graph that Trump loves has a giant arrow labelled "TRUMP LEAVES OFFICE"
It points to April 2020.
Pavlou's brain has been cooked for years, I'd be surprised if there's a single other person on the planet who shares his exact combination of beliefs

Ultimately I really don't know what there is to say about Blue Prince.
It is fresh and not. It is fair and not. It is fun and not.
Exceptional, and overhyped, and still good. I think I'm glad I played it, just to understand it.
Despite Blue Prince being extremely my jam in theory I cannot remember a game I've had to work harder at to try and enjoy. 3 hours in and it's offered me basically nothing.
Wish I was having the experience everyone else seems to be having.

Trump Wasn’t President in 2020 is such an important load-bearing myth in MAGA and American politics more broadly.
The tariff situation with Heard Island and McDonald Islands is clearly demonstrating who has and hasn't been playing Worldle obsessively for years
I've seen those billboards in the inner west of Sydney too, I think Clive is just throwing money at things
“I insist on being shocked. I am never going to become immune. I think that’s a kind of failure to see so much of it that you die inside. I want to be surprised and shocked every time.”

every Pacific naval encounter from late 1943 onwards is like the IJN Golden Kirin, Glorious Harbinger of the Eternal Imperial Dawn vs six identical copies of the USS We Built This Yesterday supplied by a ship that does nothing but make birthday cakes for the other ships
some days it feels like something awful versus 4chan is like. the tectonic undercurrent of american culture
From what I've seen it's more smug "I told you so" bullshit about how Ukraine should have given up years ago.
i wish i could have the severance procedure done but between online and offline so i don't have to remember who aella or marc andreessen or thomas chatterton williams are during my normal life
