I’m all for it and hopeful. For the first time I’m beginning to feel that there’s a real chance that even the US could move towards a General Strike before too long in response to how drastically conditions are collapsing across the board.
That’s hot. Also I hadn’t realized Dylan Dog was still going. 367, wow. I feel like rewatching Cemetary Man.
As long as the Democratic Party is run by the same neoliberal establishment there will be a place for grotesque sociopaths like her and Terry McAuliffe. Thank you for remembering that she played a key part in stealing the 2016 primary from Sanders as laid out in “the emails!!!” that everyone likes to pretend didn’t contain anything horrible.

What a tough question to answer, stretching all the way back to Atari 2600 for me.
I think I’ll pick No Mercy/Virtual Wrestling Pro 2 on the N64. Possibly thousands of hours both solo and competitive at a friends with some incredible round robin tournaments with up to five participants. Just amazing Create A Wrestler and one of my handful of favorite gameplay mechanics ever. Also we were paying during the exciting days of pro wrestling so we had that enthusing us as well.
I played it on a 2019 Macbook Pro about two years ago now and oof, it was unsurprisingly rough. Probably unplayable, but through stubbornness I managed to make it through that first chapter available in early access. At the time I got it on Steam, I thought I’d be able to play it via GeForce NOW but then Google went an snapped it up and made it exclusive for Stadia. So instead I downloaded it to the Mac and suffered through crap resolution and crappier frame rates.
I just got a new M2 MBP after my old one went tits up on me and downloaded the game again to see how things are different and holy moly, it plays great at full resolution with most settings maxed out. Go Apple Silicon, and especially go Larian! Thank you so much for doing a native Mac version. I’d much rather play it this way than on the PS5. We’ve already got four ready to party up in online co-op with the new classes and races when the official release happens.
Lastly, speaking of the links, is there a way to make the link on the main page open the actual link to the external source instead of opening the post and comments? I feel like I am having to do extra clicks just to get to the content posted. I am used to viewing the content first, then going to the comments later if I choose to.
I’d like to add that I also would love to have this feature. I think about it each and every time I click on a post referring to a source.
He was targeted and kicked out by the neolibs because they were terrified of him leading Labour to victory, buddy. “Overt and unrestrained antisemitism”? You are clearly a troll. Starmer kicked MPs out of Labour for showing up with Leftist movie director Ken Laoch. It’s ridiculous. Starmer’s anti-Leftist Labour will drive people to right-wing populists, just like Macron in France.
Fuck Corbyn? Dude’s a hero and exactly what’s needed. Peddle your trash elsewhere
Edit: Adding this link from an actual Leftist publication. Taking him down was a hatchet job pure and simple. Starmer is the devil and his only job is to keep any significant change to the economic order from occurring.

"The report found that Labour’s processes for handling antisemitism complaints were lacking. Its structures were too weak, they were subject to political pressures, under-resourced, and lacked proper guidance. Its staff had not had access to appropriate training. The most damning finding — of harassment — related to two cases where representatives of the party, former mayor Ken Livingstone and a Lancashire councillor, had made antisemitic comments. The report criticized the Corbyn leadership for its lack of effectiveness in dealing with these matters, but it did not make sweeping claims about their complicity in antisemitism.
"Jeremy Corbyn’s response to the report was equally sober. He acknowledged the report’s criticisms, encouraged the swift implementation of its findings, and offered an apology to Jewish members whose complaints had been mishandled. “Jewish members of our party and the wider community were right to expect us to deal with it,” he said, “and I regret that it took longer to deliver that change than it should.”
“As one would expect, he also defended his record. Many of the processes criticized, Corbyn pointed out, predated his leadership — something which the report itself acknowledges — and were replaced by more robust procedures after 2018. He didn’t accept all of its findings, but that is hardly a surprise for a critical report running to 129 pages that dealt with such a controversial topic.”
