[Funko Fusion] game feels like an off-brand LEGO game in all the worst ways
I have a bias here because I've never understood the appeal of model collecting in general, and of dead-eyed, amorphous Funko Pops in particular, but I am shocked that a cash grab on the back of emotionless, artistically-bereft figurines wasn't a smash hit.
...and if you're able, warm up before you step outside. Jog on the spot, do some stretches or light bodyweight exercise, bring your extremity temperature up a bit.
"Harris is the better choice in this fucking awful dilemma the US electoral system gives us" is not pro-Israel. It was a pragmatic option to reduce the damage a little, to lead the US down a better road domestically, and to leave the door open to later activism to stop the genocide where there was no viable third voting option.
Please don't conflate a Harris vote with a pro-Israel stance.
Voting for a fascist makes a person categorically a fascist. And by accepted measures of fascism, such as Umberto Eco's Ur-Fascism, you'd have to do some major rhetorical gymnastics to conclude anything else.
There's a ton of history on Wikipedia. Most of it is the council coming up with new reasons to demolish it or plans to change it, with no convincing motive.
The most notable things for me were:
An allegation that they want the bridge demolished to remove the trams that mar the modernity of the waterfront regeneration project nearby.
A mention of Chinese lenders bankrolling the demolition and construction a Chinese construction firm being awarded the contract for constructing a new bridge.
A mention of a Russian construction and design group submitting plans for transforming and relocating the existing bridge.
Mark Gurman, who's normally dead on the money when it comes to Apple, thinks they're unlikely to keep up annual releases (though I should note the linked article suggests the new iPhone model schedule is unlikely to change for now).
There's no safe way to answer this without giving away plot points, I don't think. Most important thing is that it's sci-fi, not a drama about developers in the way you might expect.
Gandalf is the name of a dwarf in the Norse Poetic Edda (from which Tolkien borrowed a bunch of names, mostly dwarves). He supposed – probably accurately – that it meant "wand-elf", but he originally gave the name to Thorin.
It was a joke, but the article itself does explicitly conclude this as one of its observations:
The findings raise big questions about the limits and future of polling, which relies on voters giving responses reflecting their real-life political behavior.
