  • BG3 swept pretty heavily at the Golden Joystick Awards, and is likely going to win a lot at TGA as well (deservedly so IMO). Other games it has stiff competition from include Spiderman 2, Alan Wake 2, and even fellow Nintendo game Super Mario Wonder.

  • Besides, America has their own vast, vast history of systematic and institutionalized racism and segregation to learn about before we go worrying about other countries history of systematic and institutionalized racism and segregation (I say this as an American and former history major).

    Some notable examples of topics simply not taught or HEAVILY glossed over at best in many US history classes:

    • King Phillip’s War (arguably is an English example since it predates the founding of the USA, but it happened on what would become the USA, and perpetuated by people related to those that would become Americans)
    • Tulsa Race Riots
    • The Wilmington Coup/Massacre
    • The American conquests of the Philippines and Hawaii
    • The many interventions in Mexico
    • Pretty much everything the CIA has ever done in South America, Asia, and Africa
    • That time in WWII we unconstitutionally stripped the rights from law abiding American citizens just because of their Japanese ancestry and put them in concentration camps

    Unfortunately, this is barely even scratching the surface.

  • For those keeping score:

    Foreign bots on social media: bad

    Foreign money being used to finance political campaigns, lobbying, etc.: totally fine

    (Note: I agree bot farms are bad, but that is a very low effort and bad faith argument for what she is arguing for)

  • As a Toledo resident, the best part of tonight is that i no longer have to feel dirty crossing the border OR support your state’s economy to buy good edibles! /s

    In all serious though, my mom’s side of the family is from Ann Arbor, and there are many beautiful parts of your state that i have been lucky to go see. Old Town Lansing is such an underrated place IMO.
