Damn, why gatekeep?

I tried Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes again today, after years of not playing it. Had a lot of fun, and even beat a bunch of previously best times!

I also tried Balatro for the first time today. Really cool music and aesthetics, but not for me. I could see someone who likes Poker, getting super into it though.

Been playing a lot of Dice & Fold though, which I initially thought that I wouldn't care for, but which has really turned into an obsession. That and Storyteller have been so much fun to play!

Next up, I want to give PowerWash Simulator a try, as I hear a lot of good things about it.

Women are not good for the next hour anyway y yo no se que es eso amor pero no se que hacer con el amor de mi vida y no me gusta que me diga que no me gusta estar contigo

It's bad bitch o'clock, featuring Bad Bunny.

I personally prefer a good pan.

I think what the person on Twitter wrote is in response to Rowling going off on a rant about cisgender female boxer, Imane Khelif (from Algeria), in the Olympics, and insisting that she's a man. Rowling's tweet here. There's an article here that outlines the response from the Olympics, and the other female boxer, Italian boxer Angela Carini, who lost to Imane Khelif.

Carini, however, said to reporters after the match: “I wish her to carry on until the end and that she can be happy … I am not here to judge or pass judgment. If an athlete is this way, and in that sense it’s not right or it is right, it’s not up to me to decide.”

And as that article also notes:

It’s also worth noting that it is illegal to be transgender in Algeria – so to peddle the information that the country would send a trans athlete to compete in the Olympics would frankly be laughable if it wasn’t so maddening.

Edit: Forgot to link to the article.

Oh, that actually looks really cool! Seems perfect for those times when you don't want to start up a whole Excel / Google Sheet. That actually seems perfect for what OP is asking for, provided they don't mind that it isn't offline. At least it doesn't require making an account! Pretty cool that you can share pages too.

Oh, I hadn't heard about this one! But it looks interesting (YouTube trailer), so I'll check it out.

Adding on to this to specifically recommend the Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 soundtrack. Oscar Araujo did masterful work on this, so much so that I even went out and bought the album, even though it was almost impossible to get my hands on it. But you can listen to it on YouTube.

Wow, I appreciate you following up! I can just imagine how much you had to get through. Cheers!

It's supposed to be angels. Abraham Lincoln also used the phrase "the better angels of our nature" in his first inaugural address in 1861, in a plea to avoid civil war.

EDIT: I also don't see the spelling mistake that OP is talking about.

I played the demo on Steam yesterday, and had a lot of fun with it. I really look forward to seeing what they come up with in the full release.

I'm so happy that it's getting more normal for studios to release free demos. I've been playing a lot of hours of Aloft too, and I gotta say, it really makes me more interested in buying the game when it comes out, than I otherwise would be.
