A greenhouse-gas-spewing, polluting, corrupt, repressive, genocidal, international-terrorism-supporting regime is hosting the UN’s annual Climate Change/Global Warming conference in mid-November. Of course it is.

There are elections today in the USA. But we don’t need to know their outcome to predict many of the issues that the Identity Project and supporters and allies will continue to face in the coming years.

Added a third boss, which can be hit anywhere except head-on.

You may notice a glitch around 00:35. I have no idea how that happened. The sword is still in it's place after the last thrust but it sets the "active" flag to false when not in use, so it shouldn't be detecting collision.

These are the people who are in favor of water fluoridation.

They want to use chemicals to fuck with your body, and they don't care if it kills you.

I get the motives behind the "indie web" movement, but I really don't think everyone needs a website.

Just look at the websites hosted on any free web hosting service, both old and new. That vast majority of them are almost empty with messages saying "coming soon" and they tend to stay that way forever, or they just give out a few facts about themselves a blog with only a few posts, and that's it. People don't realize that that's what basically killed GeoCities and other free web hosts. Unless you have something really interesting to share, there is no point in having a personal website. The personal websites you loved to browse back in the day (and maybe now) were the diamonds in the rough.

I do agree that artists, indie game studios, small businesses, non-profits, self-employed entrepreneur's, celebrities, activists, etc should have a website and focus on that rather than social media, but to say that EVERYONE needs a personal website is a bit of a stretch.

Imagine driving to get your nails done with your family and all of a sudden, you are pulled over by police officers for allegedly driving a stolen car. You are dragged out of the car and detained at gun point. So are your daughter, sister, and nieces.
