Fortunately the DOJ and Trump don't trump the Constitution (yet). The 2A has no qualifications embedded in it. It's a right afforded to all Americans regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity, is blatantly unconstitutional, and even SCOTUS would be hard-pressed to side with Trump on this one.

Because the moment you allow any qualifications or restrictions to be placed on the Bill of Rights you run the risk that someone else later on down the line could make the same claim that no Republican should be allowed to own a gun, too.

And that'll never happen.

@trashHeap The big scare about Black Panthers carrying guns and the subsequent assassination of their leader by the FBI is a strong indicator that the 2nd amendment has always been conceived with cis white people in mind, at any time in history.

I don't get them either. I guess they're not DMs but "private posts" that only one person can see, and the UI for it is super confusing.

Hell is Us, a brand-new action RPG, just hit Steam today.

And itโ€™s not shy about what it is. This is a semi-open world, clue-driven game where thereโ€™s no map, no compass, no quest markers. Just you, your notebook of leads, and the guts to actually explore. Itโ€™s like someone finally asked: โ€œwhat if we ditched Ubisoft-brain design and just trusted the player?โ€

The setup: youโ€™re Rรฉmi, a peacekeeper who comes back to his homeland of Hadea, a country already torn apart by civil war.

And because that isnโ€™t miserable enough, a supernatural calamity has unleashed pale chimerasโ€”things modern weapons canโ€™t even scratch. Thatโ€™s why combat is melee-focused, with swords and polearms instead of rifles. The one bit of โ€œtechโ€ you do get is KAPI, a four-rotor drone that can scan, distract, or even attack with different modules. Think of it as your little cyberpunk buddy tagging along while you figure out why the world went sideways.

And hereโ€™s food for thought: at what point does a โ€œAAโ€ game become AAA? Because this sure looks the part. Unreal Engine 5. Full HDR. Dynamic lighting that makes every ruined corridor look painterly.

And the recommended specs are nothing to sneeze atโ€”an RTX 2080 Ti or RX 6750 XT are baseline if you want it running as intended. Translation: budget rigs are going to sweat. But if youโ€™ve got the hardware, this is a stunner.

PC players also get DLSS 4 support right out of the gate, and even GeForce NOW streaming. So youโ€™ve got options whether youโ€™re maxing out your rig or kicking back on a couch.

Presentation is top tier. The soundtrack is lush, the voice acting (yes, Elias Toufexis plays Rรฉmi) nails the mood, and the environments drip with atmosphere.

And the accessibility suite is robust: color-blind modes, camera tweaks, directional audio cues, difficulty sliders, subtitle scaling. This is the kind of design you usually see in bigger studios, not mid-sized teams.

Controls? Full gamepad support, Xbox or PlayStation, no issue.

Officially Windows-only, but Steam Deck and Linux players are already chiming in on ProtonDB saying it runs fine with tweaks.

Developer Rogue Factor is best known for Necromunda: Underhive Warsโ€”which landed with mixed reviews. But Hell is Us is already hitting way higher. Launch reviews sit in the high 70s/low 80s on Metacritic, and Steamโ€™s user rating is trending โ€œVery Positive.โ€ Not bad for a game leaning this hard into old-school, no-handholding design.

Price is C$64.99. Definitely not budget, but still cheaper than the C$90โ€“100 youโ€™ll drop on a modern AAA. And frankly? Most AAA titles donโ€™t look or sound this good.

I'm a sucker for a sunset and this was a tricky one to capture at Lake Wenatchee in WA. I wanted a long exposure for the water to smooth out ripples, so that was too bright for the sky, so a nifty bit of blending was required. #sunset #sunsetlovers #sunsetphotography #photo #photography #nature #shoreline #sunset #lakewenatchee #AYearForArt #Landscape

RFK Jr. rolled out that old chestnut again about how healthy Americans were in the 60โ€™s, so hereโ€™s a fact check. In 1965: -42% of American adults smoked; itโ€™s 11% now. -The infant morality rate was 24.7/1000; itโ€™s 5.6/1000 now. -Overall life expectancy was 70 years; it's about 77 years now.

The USAโ€™s population-level health indicators are poor, compared to advanced countries. However that is despite spending much more per capita than *any* nation.
in reply to JamesAshburner

About twice as much on average! Same in public dollars, but then matched over again with private expenses.

Every time thereโ€™s a survey about public approval for single-payer itโ€™s popular, but as with climate action, trans and reproductive rights, public opinion isnโ€™t allowed to reign when lobby money shows up.

We in the UK are worried that the very vocal populist party is pressing for an insurance based system rather than the NHS
in reply to Charlotte Walker

I'll always gladly volunteer American horror stories of bankruptcy, canceled coverage, unaffordable meds, and overall limited care thanks to our insurance system. There are enough incentives for denial of care without the force multiplier of shareholder profit and eight-figure C-suite compensation.

My whole family was in medicine and half of the practice in the US is getting the insurers to pay for absolutely unquestionably necessary care. They want you totally healthy or dead ASAP.

Well we know the scare stories but the man most vocal about this (Nigel Farage) is independently wealthy and heโ€™s made it abundantly clear that he doesnโ€™t care about us lesser mortals who canโ€™t pay for treatment
in reply to Charlotte Walker

access to the medical science that increases life expectancy is paywalled in the US, thus life expectancy is lower than elsewhere

WHO puts US life expectancy at #40, lower than Costa Rica, Panama, & Peru as well as any country you have ever considered rich

North Korea has a higher life expactancy as some states. I believe Arkansas for example.

Via DfE today: "The government is opening 300 new or expanded nurseries on school grounds, helping to cut down on the school run and giving children a seamless start to their education...

"Schools report over 4,000 extra school-based nursery places [are] available across England this September as Govt vows to boost childcare access in disadvantaged communities in the next phase of the rollout.

189 of the 300 government-funded new or expanded nurseries are set to be up and running this month."
