i have a very not-typically-white-American last name and I’ve gotta be honest the sudden uptick in my patients saying something along the lines of “oh i was going to cancel I thought you were one of those foreign doctors” is not a good prognostic sign

Every few months I discover Paradox has added yet another feature that doesn't clearly integrate with the whole rest of the game and I cry inside

A Britain Communist playthrough is so brutal now. You have to decolonize via the focus tree but sometimes it bugs out and won't let you, leading to chaos

Expropriation and deportation is hardly extermination. Saying that one might lead to another is a dangerous slippery slope. hang on, I'm just going to read a single book

my strategy for dealing with this sort of thing at work has been to ask "is there literally any topic I would want their feedback on" and usually: nah

It's a terrific book! it's amazing that it seemed so important to understand them at the time; I won't even read a whole news article about a shooting now

video games actually come at three price points these days: $20-30 — a video game that costs $20 or $30 $60-70 — $60 to $150, depending on how many missing pieces there are $0 — you will be relentlessly punished until you give them at least $500
