  • Tangentially related, but the fox game show “1% club” is, perhaps unintentionally, a fascinating demonstration of how vastly different people think through logic problems.

    The premise is the contestants go through a series of questions already asked to a sample of Americans and progress in order of how “difficult” they are based on how many got them wrong.

    The interesting part comes when there can be a significant gap in what I perceive the difficulty to be between questions. Sometimes I may have trouble with an “easy” one but get a significantly “tougher” one no problem.

    It seems like lunacy to me, but all it really means most times is the format or mechanics of the logic needed for the answer is just more natural to me than the majority of the sample.

  • You only listed Bastion, but the other Supergiant games always go on sale as well. Anyone interested, do yourself a favor and get Transistor and/or Pyre instead or as well.

    I’ve been a long time Supergiant fan and it was a thing of gaming beauty to see Hades have such success as it masterfully blended all 3 of their games into the perfect package. Bastion was their first and my least favorite (probably because of it). But it is still worth playing for sure.

    Transistor was the first I played and what made me fall in love with their studio. God tier soundtrack, incredible setting, and innovative real time/turn based combat gameplay.

    Pyre is the black sheep but my favorite. It is undeniably unique gameplay. But, true talk, you really play it for the story, and that is very much not my gaming MO. It’s indescribable and any fan of Hades wouldn’t receive that game without Pyre coming first. If you liked even 1 character in Hades, you owe it to yourself to play this. I’m not a fantasy fan but I adore the world they crafted. And it is, somehow, probably Korb’s best soundtrack.

    Patience may reward you with even lower prices. But they routinely hit this low in every big sale these days. And the risk of not playing them before you die far outweighs the extra dollar you might save.

  • Hands. It’s just to the right and kinda defeats the purpose if you ask me. Especially with the other good option removed as well.

  • People pay good money for this at present. Is this future offering it for free? Cuz I’m in.

  • For sure, but we’ve seen hope like this go down the drain before. The circumstances here were favorable I think. RCV primary against an unlikable and disgraced opponent in NYC is hardly a death knell for the national corpo Dems

  • I’m no political scientist, but I’d think he needs to win the general before this can be said.

  • Your source is a California state museum entity. Hardly a news competitor. And much more substantial than some guy telling a story with no citation at all.

  • That toad is totally gonna rip you off

  • Fantastic source. Doing better journalism and research than pros over here. Thank you.

  • Is there any source on this “cover fire” incident other than this guy spinning yarn? Cuz that sounds outlandish even in 1992 and contrary to actual training. Marines have known how to enter a building for a while.

  • My corn cream colony is stirring. Please stop.

  • I’m with you. This viral moment never made sense to me cuz I can never see anything else even with my wildest imagination.

  • It’s so bonkers man. I’m curious but afraid to watch The Brainwashing of my Dad cuz I know it will cut too true.

  • I didn’t think unironic usage was a prereq for this list, just overuse/disruptive to a classroom

  • What is this even for? Is there some sort of framework a negative finding would lay that allows them to overturn policy? Trumps doing it already anyway.
