Sid Meier's Colonization form 1994.

Very basic Sim game compared to modern standards and small enough to fit on even a tiny flash drive and take with you wherever you go.

Is that first one her Malice re-skin? Because that's pretty good if so.

Ninja-edit: Yes, yes it is.

How racist of Rolling Stones to complain about an all black music group.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Let%27s_Get_It_Started

"Let's Get It Started" is a song by American group The Black Eyed Peas. It is a clean version of "Let's Get Retarded" from their third studio album, Elephunk (2003).

This is probably in reference to David Cameron, all things considered.

Of course, gotta get out the door fast before he actually loses an actual election now that he can't suspend them yet again.

your leadership

The leadership in question is voted in by a much smaller number than what US elections manage. FPTP means not only are some regions completely devoid of the winning party, but have never voted for them as a local majority in decades, if ever. The secondary and tertiary problem with this situation is that neither do the alternative parties ever really offer anything different, remember before the current Labour gov the Tories were in power for about 14 years, but also that the population never really seems to stick to actual alternatives when "offered" them. So it swaps back between Red or Blue just like in the USA except the differences between the two now seems even less obvious than when Blair rewrote the playbook.

The British

No, plenty of people have been trying to speak out about this for years, including the actual victims. They were harassed, threatened, and even jailed for daring to question The Message about mostly peaceful community cohesion and continue to be so as recently as the stabbings last year which saw riots that the police took full action against, despite only weeks prior standing down when a different group rioted because children were removed from an abusive household.

Is the system fucked? Yes. Are there people trying to call this out? Also yes. Does painting the entire set of islands as a single homogeneous group do anyone any favours? No, despite the irony of that being the very goal of The Message and "community cohesion" in the topic, but then the "rest of the world" rarely understands just how actually diverse the individual nations making up Britain can be let alone how they vary from nation to nation.

Apple is getting fucked hard due to a certain country (guess who?) opting for Made-in-China alternatives to the iPhone

The same place their new CFO of all of 3 days is from because the simulation loves irony?

Imagine not only celebrating the end of your own genetic line in your own fucking lifetime, but while your children are still alive!

but they have higher domestic abuse rates

Every time this is mentioned I wonder if it's actual abuse rate or just report rates. If women are the more likely partner vs men to report domestic abuse, real or made up, then a pairing of two women are unsurprisingly going to result in lot more reports because modern society has not only moulded them to wield these accusations as weapons but also provided the very weapons and infrastructure through kangaroo courts to do so with little to no cost even when making shit up.

It may still be a true statement, in part because men are likely also under-reporting abuse for a whole list of reasons, so women having a higher threshold to both report on actual events as well as making shit up means lesbians are always going to be top of the pile when it comes to this.

tl;dr I think the actual numbers are far, far murkier than any initial glance offers. Men probably under-report, women probably over-report, and women also probably flat out make up reports. All of which means lesbian numbers score highest.

China is literally next door to India, they'd just throw them back home, or drop them off somewhere along the way.

Not really, Christians aren't going to shoot up a magazine office, or decapitate someone just for drawing an image of God, sincerely or otherwise. It's lazy and cowardly tactics because they know there won't be any significant pushback to the tip of the spear continuing to press inwards.

I'm sure they lived through hell while all the men, or what was left of them, were coming back from the war after losing friends, family, body parts, and sanity. Women suffered so much they had to actually work because all the men were off dying, the selfish bastards! 🙄
