It's as soft as it looks.

To determine how many prison beds will be needed in future years, some states actually base part of their projection on how well current elementary students are performing on reading tests

Wow. That's depressing.

Toy on Head (lemmy.world)
 

I sat a toy on her head and she let it sit there for a long while. She didn't seem to mind or even notice it.

During covid, there were people taking ivermectin to treat it.

Ivermectin for horses was a popular choice among these idiots.

Once I was watching my brother play counter strike and he would turn away in game and irl whenever he threw a flash bang.

He didn't even realize he was doing this until I pointed it out.

You are correct. Seven is captured and forced to fight in a sport called "Tsunkatse".

Here's the fight: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYUyTcoe0qw

For anybody thinking this new game will be anything like XCOM prepare for disappointment.

Jake has previously said that he is leaving turn-based tactics games behind.

And his tweet announcing Midsummer even says "it's going to seem very different from what I've done before."

edit: There is some good news for turn-based tactics fans. Another studio founded by former XCOM devs is focusing on turn-based games.

I don't know that the Japanese game industry has had layoffs like the west has.

I'm reminded of the time Satoru Iwata cut his own salary to avoid layoffs at Nintendo.

Received a report saying:

please allow the community to vote on dead pet posts.

The community already votes on dead pet posts via upvotes/downvotes. And the results are largely in favor of allowing these posts.

I understand that death is a tough subject for some people. These sort of posts make me tear up too. But our beloved furry friends are not immortal. They all die eventually.

If this community can serve as a place to help people grieve when they lose their pets then I'd say it's worth making a few people uncomfortable.

Rest in peace, Izumi. You were a beautiful cat that was clearly well loved in life.

It was given to me so I don't know where it's originally from.

I found what looks like the same thing by searching "mushroom scratching post" on amazon.

 

Mine got a mushroom scratching post.
