  1. Supreme Court wipes out lower court rulings in Texas abortion battle WWW.NBCNEWS.COM The governor ordered a halt to nonessential medical procedures last year, which the attorney general then said applied to "any type of abortions."
  2. Waiting on that $1,400 check? Republicans say 'maybe a couple of months from now' WWW.NBCNEWS.COM Biden's team appears ready to invest political capital trying to get Congress to approve another round of stimulus payments.
  3. 2021 Games Demon's Souls Remake (2nd playthrough) Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney -- Trials and Tribulations Girlfriend and I finished the original Ace Attorney trilogy. I tell ya, T&T goes into the bizarre a bit more than the other games. It certainly gets less grounded overall from game to game, but T&T goes just a bit higher. Still, solutions make sense considering the evidence, and it has probably the most intriguing story told over the course of five cases. Godot ends up being a very interesting prosecutor, perhaps even a bit more than Edgeworth (even though Edgeworth is a more endearing character), and a certain villain is quite evil. I really love the fourth case, bringing you back to one that lacks an investigation and is simply in the courtroom. But the fifth was less padded and overlong than I remember considering the quality of the story. Overall, a lovely trio of games and a great conclusion. I really hope they bring the second trilogy to consoles, but apparently the upcoming Phoenix Wright compilation needs to do well in sales for that to happen.
  4. History made: Renewable energy surpassed fossil fuels for European electricity in 2020 WWW.CNN.COM Europeans got more of their electricity from renewable sources than fossil fuels for the first time last year, according to an annual report from Ember and Agora Energiewende.
  5. I’ve seen Trump voters sharing it, and not as an insult.
  6. Atop the Powerful Budget Committee at Last, Bernie Sanders Wants to Go Big - The New York Times WWW.NYTIMES.COM To the chagrin of Republicans, the democratic socialist senator will play a central role in shepherding Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s agenda through Congress. This was him on Seth Meyers: Seth Meyers: President Biden made, I think, a great effort yesterday to send a message of unity, and as someone who talked in the lead up to the election about how he is the kind of politician who has friends on the other side aisle; he wants to work with republicans, yet we're already seeing even today that Mitch McConnell is taking steps to limit what the democrats in the senate can do. Do you think there is some sort of bipartisan work that can be done in the senate or are you expecting a sort of McConnell-inspired gridlock? Bernie Sanders: Look, I think we should do our best to reach out to republicans who represent communities that are suffering terribly in terms of unemployment, lack of healthcare, and other very serious problems --- but --- I don't think our reaching out should go on indefinitely. This country today is hurting and people are hurting really, really badly. We're looking [sic] about people and people who cannot feed their kids (literally) who are worried about being evicted, can't afford to go to the doctor even when they are sick. We have got to move and move quickly. So I think we should reach out republicans, [but] if they choose to not come on board --- which I suspect will probably be the case --- we have the majority, we should use that majority in a very aggressive way. Now I'm gonna be chairman of the budget committee which handles what we call 'reconciliation' and that is a senate process by which you can pass not all kinds of legislation but a whole lot of very important legislation with a [simple] majority vote, not 60 votes, and it is my view that we should make sure that we address the needs of the American people in that reconciliation bill, and if we pass it with 51 votes, we pass it with 51 votes.
  7. I thought about him a couple days ago, how I’d heard no updates on his condition after his COVID diagnosis. So this isn’t a surprise. RIP
  8. Sources: Capcom has overhauled its plans for a Resident Evil 4 remake | VGC WWW.VIDEOGAMESCHRONICLE.COM Capcom Division 1 brought in as newcomer M-Two sees role reduced…
  9. And I also see an abundance of good information. The only reason you can say much of any of what you said ITT is due to your being able to do so through social media, improved search engines, and the advantages of the internet in general. The only reason you think you have a well-reasoned overall ideology is because of the ease of getting good information through all of this tech. "The internet introduces bad things" is kind of a no shit? Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think he said that at all. He said that back in the day, the box office would be where people made decisions, but now the box office equivalent is looking at the lineup of movies on the site the day of, which is much different than just showing up and a totally reasonable thing to do if you want to go to the movies that day and want to see what's playing. @sblfilms I thought that's what you meant?
  10. Vicarious Visions merged into Blizzard WWW.GAMESINDUSTRY.BIZ Long-time Activision Publishing studio will be "fully dedicated" to Blizzard titles going forward; former studio head Jen Oneal promoted to Blizzard leadership's team
  11. It's why many states exist, anyway, so if they don't willingly combine, then make more states, I say.
  12. I remember before social media and search engines. I remember when search engines didn't find anything useful. It was harder to find info as simple as, "Hey, I used to watch a show at 8 but a different show's on. What happened and where'd it go?" Never mind information on issues of actual consequence. I think it's a bit nostalgic to think that everyone received accurate information more often and with less hassle/bullshit.
  13. Social media is fine. Before social media, fake news was shared in chain emails; Snopes was combating that disinformation at the time instead of fake memes on FB/Twitter.
  14. I recently finished the whole thing. Great info. It boggles my mind that she’sa personal friend of mine with whom I went to college and with whom I took classes. I see her here or I see Dave Bautista retweeting her and I’m like “Fo reals?” Fun fact about her: she’s always been cool, but she used to be a born again Christian in the early 2010s. However, she went full on progressive over time and voted Hillary in 2016. Worth a follow.
  15. Man, I don't care if Cabaret is in the other games (maybe it's in this one too, I dunno), but this is too fucking good.
  16. And for @Chairslinger @MarSolo @Spork3245 @69los @Dodger
  17. I’m happy for you man. For the first post you made in a while, I’m actually glad that you decided that was gonna be it.
