While the Onion buying InfoWars is indeed extremely funny, very few of the posts I've seen commenting on the sale have mentioned that the families of the Sandy Hook victims apparently agreed to voluntarily reduce their lawsuit payout as part of a deal to ensure that the Onion would acquire InfoWars wholesale, rather than having the company broken up and auctioned off piecemeal, as the latter course could potentially have allowed some of those pieces to end up back in the hands of Alex Jones' cronies.
Like, yes, it is in fact very funny that InfoWars is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Clickhole, but the real props go out to the Sandy Hook families who saw the opportunity and willingly gave up the additional millions of dollars that could have been realised by stripping InfoWars for parts in order to make that happen.

the politics of dragon age have always been really annoyingly painfully neoliberal, so this game wasnt even remotely an outlier in that respect. but i'm still just so annoyed that the Veil is still up, that reform and the status quo were enshrined. from the top down, as neve said (altho this was about supporting Mae as the Archon.) but... i wonder if maybe they're planning for the advent of the Devouring Storm to be what might finally bring it all crashing down?

i desire for my rook to be more torn up about the fact that she released the gods that have apparently devastated the south (not to mention treviso or minrathous/weisshaupt). i need her to regret it, if you will.
Dragon Age: The Veilguard
I've finished it, and I'm still chewing on it but I have some thoughts. Nothing particularly cohesive, just some random jumbles.

one time a guy i know whose girlfriend was heavily pregnant didn’t tweet anything for a whole day so i texted him ‘congrats on your baby’ and made him think i had some kind of baby precognition
like six months after that just after halloween i asked to see his son dressed as a ‘fat baby pumpkin’ and he was like ‘who told you’ and i said ‘no one. it’s halloween. you have a fat baby. he’s going to be a pumpkin’

the ending devastated me. i mean it, like, genuinely. i do NOT cry at media very often and I cried during that ending. the bookend for solavellan hit me in the feels -- the epic, dark, mythic romance between this god of misfortune and the mortal love of his wretched life, a story which begins and ends with a wound in the fade. i did not love everything about this game but i really loved that the solavellan romance finally got an opportunity for an ending.
i screamed when i realized bioware might actually let us romance a skeleton. i screamed again when i realized bioware really was letting us romance a skeleton. i'm ngl tho i think i won't ever pick that choice again, just from a narrative standpoint. it was pure titillating curiosity on my part. i don't think it actually resolved anything regarding his fear of dying, i don't think we ever got to meaningfully address it, and i feel like we speedran through that relationship, skipping a lot steps.
