Description: Two images of Boo (from the Mario games). In the first image, Boo eagerly looks leftward, tongue hanging out and showing their teeth. In the other one, Boo has bashfully turned away and attempts to hide behind its tiny "arms".

 

The name of the castle translates to "Castle on the Crest".

The old castle (the ruin in the foreground) was probably built in the 14th century, though very little information about it is available. It was inhabited by local aristocrats up until the French Revolution when it was severely damaged. Instead of rebuilding the old castle, a new one was erected (in the background) in a pseudo-Renaissance style during the 19th century.

 

A video essay about fascists' mentality and their rhetorical strategies beyond their dishonest arguments. How they subvert discourse by wasting everyone's time.

 

Last week I couldn't play Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. This week I can play Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. Case closed, right? I just demonstrated that anybody can "git gud" if they struggle for long enough, didn't I? No, I simply showed that I could personally do it for one particular game.

Let's talk about gitting gud, understanding the needs of others, and how it all relates to the arc words of Clair Obscur. For those who come after.

I can't take articles such as this one seriously if they don't mention right-wing terrorists recruiting through the same channels and means. That has been a known problem for more than a decade.

Treating online radicalisation solely as a problem of people with a migrant/non-European/Muslim/... background is very telling and borders on lying by omission.

“Pure feminism is nolens volens radical. It necessarily excludes (...) moderation, restriction, half-measures. Being feminist in no way means wanting to obtain a right for a small number of women at the expense of other women à tout prix - being feminist only ever means fighting for the overall liberation of the entire female sex.”

As disappointing as it is, I appreciate being informed now. As much as enjoyed their music Anti-Flag wasn't a band I actively followed - unlike you. I can totally see how such news are devastating for a community build around it.
