Today I'm at a different beach, further Northwest, and it's funny how it's 98% German tourists. Whereas in Malia it was perfectly British territory, along with pubs and whatever your average Brit expects. Funny how even on vacation, and even if they're related (like Germans and Brits are) people tend to segregate automatically.
People who smoke at the beach are complete cancer. Just ban these poison sticks already, EU wide. The herd will either adapt to something else or forget about it anyway.

Long Story Short — Mini Review
The Nier Automata novelization by Jun Eishima is serviceable, albeit with some drawbacks. Eishima adequately summarizes the events of the game, yet overwhelmingly fails to provide similar levels of immersion as the game, with moments that exceed the game being rare (but memorable) exceptions.
The English translation tries to stay faithful to the original Japanese with an almost self-defeating loyalty. This stems from the fact that Japanese as a language often chains bits of information into one sentence with the actual verb coming at the very end. These trains can contain information across the entire spectrum of narrative elements. Some may call such constructs a sort of blending; other words that may also be applicable are cramped, confusing, and compressed with a loss of potential impact.
Beyond that, the text reads often like a battle or action log, providing little to no additional detail for subtext or the metaphysical (different POVs in-between chapters being an exception). Thus when the pace slows down to provide more interior angles, it can feel jarring and even out of place, instead of seamlessly enhancing the battle log.
With all that being said it would be unfair to judge the female author based on the ungrateful task of novelizing (summarizing) Taro's game, for her talent can and does shine through occasionally, like a distant sun breaking through intense battlefield smoke.

Well wow what a shitty story with dysfunctional drama, aborted plot, and a castrated theme. I gave Ridley Scott the benefit of the doubt but when Philipp K Dick appeared during the ending credits it reminded me why Blade Runner sucked so hard. It's another work where its contribution to tradition (especially the visual language) vastly exceeds its own merit, which is hardly above that of a TV feature/show and completely forgettable. Ford's limp Jewish performance is the icing on the cake.
Watching Blade Runner (for the first time, for some reason). In the 80s the technological advancement trajectory was such that they really thought in 2019 we'd have flying cars, robots indistinguishable from humans, off-planet mining, and a multiracial America where multiple languages compete over the same territory. Looks like only one of those things came true.

Context: So far he refrained from mentioning Israel. The replies to this are a warzone and I don't think Jews are winning.

Looks like Zelinsky's time is up. America understands that Russia has won, and the longer the war goes on the bigger Russia's victory will be. Russia will not negotiate with an illegitimate president. Ukraine will get elections or an interim government, and then peace.
Remember to support your boy Matt Gaetz as he slowly massages boomers away from Israel
If you wondered why Cruz would defend Israel to his death. They own him entirely.
After recent events Catholics would have justification to call out a Holy Crusade to protect the Church in Israel, and I feel many of us would join it.
ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt delivers the good news. What the ADL calls "extreme antisemitism" (the noticing) has doubled in the US in the last five years.
Ultra Christian Zionist Mike Huckabee was sent to Israel as ambassador and is now being confronted day after day with Christian persecution by his beloved Jews. Wouldn't it be funny if being in Israel would wake him up from the Zionist delusion.
It can make sense to see their manic insistence on getting everyone injected in this context, either due to immediate lethal effects or long-term damage to fertility.
The Elites really think there are too many people on earth, trying to see their perspective logically
- if you have no sense or identity based on Volk/ethnie
- if you don't believe in God
- if you don't believe man is made in the image of God, but just "another animal"
- then it follows that thinning the herd, or eliminating everyone not needed for your ideal world, becomes viable, even necessary
All this against the universal conscience (don't kill) present in every human being.
