public order crime (failure to obey police) and resisting officer without violence (this woman allegedly saw another woman getting arrested for selling flowers on the side of the road and pulled over to give her $20, which led to her arrest as well) https://nitter.poast.org/i/web/status/1692551719966675018

The only morality is objective:

Being objectivly moral is any indivdual or group acting in ways that does NOT initiate violence of any kind towards another.

"Live and let live."

Regarding masking, one of my top regrets is not walking up and snapping a picture of the guy in the grocery store that wore the coffee filter with rubber bands as a mask!

@Knight_of_the_First_State They knew it didn't do shit against the virus. It was a loyalty test. They wanted to see if they could order the entire country to do something completely arbitrary and it turned out that yes they can and most people will do it because most people are slaves.

Does anyone remember the Strike series? It seems like the series ended because the director actually hates meetings.

I would love to make a spiritual successor, but programming an isometric game is easier said than done.

Added a basic HUD. It's just text right now, but I plan on replacing the HP text with an actual health bar.

Right now, I"m suffering from writer's block on enemy design because I can't come up with new enemy ideas. Maybe I should replay Kid Icarus for inspiration, but I don't want this to be a straight up clone of the game. I always try to come up with at least something different.

Reminder that no matter how bad these new lockdowns are (if they happen) they can't be worse than what Jeff Cliff would want.

RE: Reinstatement of mask mandates 

I'm a little bewildered by the people working to reignite the covid hysteria three years into the crisis. I'm not even strictly talking about people who are still concerned about getting infected, but rather those who are eager to reinstate lockdowns and other disastrous policies.

In some regions the 2020 pandemic response should have gone down as the worst state imposed public health disaster in history. It's important to keep in mind that not everywhere had the same policies, restrictions and measures. There are places that had vastly different impacts from each other and aren't always an "apples to apples" comparison.

That said, I can't respect anyone holding up China's extreme assault on their own population, and similar policies as an ideal example. If you are concerned about covid, and want to see concerted action to save lives, I would highly recommend understanding the
social determinants of health. Understand that despite much of 2020 may have seemed like "taking it seriously", even with textbook public health understanding, it appears to be knee-jerk and ill-advised.
