enjoying jumpscares is probably like enjoying rollercoasters (which i do). the adrenaline burst feels great for some people, and other people hate it. It seems a shame to have lots of them in games where that sort of feeling isn’t the point.
This is one game that makes me wish I enjoyed playing horror games more.
Interesting! I’ll have to read it later, then
https://web.archive.org/web/20210312204123/https://www.newsweek.com/robert-paxton-trump-fascist-1560652 is the ny times article different substantially from his 2021 opinion?
Parents are upset with the Columbus School District after children road a school bus that had vomit, blood and empty liquor bottles left on the floor after the bus was used for a weekend event.
i didn’t notice the typo at first
I’m seeing 21.50 from articles in 2020 tying min wage to productivity. Maybe that’s the number basis? Or living wage? A living wage per state adjustment for one adult with one child seems to put lw around 30 in a lot of states, with the single adult needing 13-20.

I was wondering if he was still around and he is but he had a bunch of paintings stolen a couple years ago while he was in the hospital.
maybe they weren’t, since not spanking children leads to better outcomes for them. Emotionally and cognitively.
Researchers are also finding that physical punishment is linked to slower cognitive development and adversely affects academic achievement
oh to be as happy as this kid holding an orange

“Turn it up a notch”

🔵🟡🔵🔵My take is that conspiracies happen, but I’m not smart enough to pick them out. If there’s legit evidence (the real trouble is deciding what that means), though, I can believe it.
Some billboards warn voters to “STOP Child Gender Surgery,” even though the amendment doesn’t mention gender-affirming care. Other billboards say it would permit abortions in the ninth month of pregnancy, though a state appeals court ruling in a case challenging the wording of the amendment’s summary on the ballot said that was not true.
So, they’re just plainly lying, huh. I was wondering how they tied the things together, but they’re just straight up lying to try and use general antitrans sentiment to get people to vote against their interests.
Just, classic tactics from them.
A three-judge panel on Thursday ruled that Tennessee doctors who provide emergency abortions to protect the life of the mother cannot have their medical licenses revoked or face other disciplinary actions while a lawsuit challenging the state’s sweeping abortion ban continues.
…
However, the judges also said that because they are a chancery court, they do not have the jurisdiction to block the criminal statute inside the ban — where violators face felony charges carrying a prison sentence as high as 15 years.
This means that while doctors will not face disciplinary actions from the Attorney General’s office and the Tennessee Board of Medical Examiners, they could still risk criminal charges under Thursday’s ruling.
the violence!!!

Honestly, I do wonder sometimes. Especially since a relative was diagnosed recently and it turned out another relative was diagnosed as a kid. Ah, well.
That’s a shame, because it really doesn’t seem to benefit a game like Alan Wake 2 at all, atmosphere or story-wise, while turning lots of people away.
