Did you know that Deform UK Ltd have a freepost address that costs THEM about £2.50 for every item that has to be delivered to it.
Reform UK, FREEPOST RTLT-ZXHY-KSDC, 83 Victoria Street, London SW1P 4QP.
I'm not saying you should send any old piece of trash to that address to cost them money.
Hope you have a great time! Well deserved, Ghost of Yotei was GREAT!
We’re going to London, babyyyyy!!! 🥰🎭
Numpty: "You block people on Social Media! You clearly don't like free speech!"
Sensible Person: "No one denies you the right to free speech by blocking. You have every right to say what you want.
You have NO inherent right to an audience...people are allowed to decide not to listen to you!"
Agreed! Love games, and by extension, the people making them.
EVERY worker in EVERY job deserves to be treated with respect, paid fairly, and have a safe, healthy workplace and a good work/life balance.
"Crunch culture" doesn't create art, it creates burnout.
...disappears without so much as a mention ever again.
The very definition of "Powers as the plot demands" or "Deus Ex Machina."
Let's be serious, we love the series...but this there's plenty of examples of "The Force" basically just being an unexplained "I win" button for the heroes to push.
...regardless of how many times it would have been useful. They never even MENTION their ability to basically surge across a distance of several feet so quickly that even robotic opponents can't visually track them.
So the power literally shows up that ONE TIME it was handy for the story, then...
...essentially swords in a universe where everyone carries guns. Being able to close the distance and take them out before they get shot to bits, right?
Yet, this extremely useful ability, they use...precisely that one time.
Yup, that's it! It's SO useful they proceed to NEVER USE IT AGAIN...
...deflecting back their shots doesn't work, because the droids have shields. Fair enough. So what do they do? They super-speed run away.
Um...OK. Now, if The Force can allow someone to do that, that seems to me to be a pretty useful ability to have for warriors who run around with what are...
... re-named "Deus Ex Machina". It pretty much does whatever the wielder needs it to do, at the drop of a hat, whenever they need it to, often without explanation.
One of my favourite examples is in "The Phantom Menace" when Obi-Wan and Qui Gon run into the Destroyer Droids. Their trick of...
As someone who loves Star Wars, having watched almost literally all available content on it, I have to say one of the funniest things I find is when people complain about "Bad Writing!" to criticise entries they didn't like for whatever reason.
I mean...The Force ALONE should basically be ...
Agreed!
And I say he should put his money where his mouth is, by having ALL his MP's that got their post by defecting from "more popular" parties to IMMEDIATELY resign their seats and stand for by-elections as Reform.
If people really want them as Reform MP's, they'll vote them back in, surely.
He's one of the clear types who changes party without any conviction to any.
He's only in it for the cushy job and the easy pay check.
If the Monster Raving Loony party rose in the ranks he'd be dressing like "The Cat in the Hat" in a week!
Oh, I love the classics!
Someone let me know when they start playing "He's going to resign this week!" or "The King's about to dissolve the Government and sack the Prime Minister!"
Ah, the good old "We didn't win, so everyone clearly cheated!" play!
I remember the good old days where if you lost, you just shook hands with the winner, stepped off the stage to re-set, look at what they did that you didn't, and prepare for the next run.
Brexit is honestly one of the few political decisions I can think of that neither...
1. Delivered on a SINGLE promise it made.
2. Delivered a SINGLE positive outcome, even an accidental or unintended one!
Genuinely, time to admit the mistake, head over to Europe and start negotiating re-entry.
...the LEAST productive working environments there is!
Funnily enough, when you don't have people constantly peering over your shoulder, calling you into pointless meetings that accomplish nothing an e-mail couldn't and pointless "team building" and "social" activities...you have more time to work.
Much more difficult for the bosses to sneer down their noses at the "oiks" if the "oiks" aren't there.
There very few real benefits to ending work-from-home in appropriate roles, and if anything numerous studies have found it's MORE productive!
Turns out that the office environment is one of...
Every time I see a Conservative creator on the TV whining about being "unable to get work" because of "wokeness", I always laugh.
Ben Shapiro? Kevin Sorbo?...
...the issue isn't that they're Conservative.
The issue is they AREN'T THAT GOOD and very few WANT to buy what they're making.
...and as we know, Reform is NOT a "political party", but a "Private Company", so surely we should have EXACTLY the same rights to insist we receive no further communications from them, right?
Reform sent me a campaign flyer a while back, so it might be worth knowing.
What are the contact details for their campaign office so that people like myself who have no interest in their materials can ask to be removed from their contact lists?
I can get my details removed from telemarketers...
Great to hear! It was FANTASTIC!
...producing, again, perhaps he should just consider that a lot of what he makes is just...not stuff a lot of people actually want to see.
Of course, just screaming "SATANISM!" is much easier than actually working to improve his own abilities.
Has he ever considered the fact that the reason he doesn't get work as an actor outside of a small bubble is because he's NOT THAT GOOD?
He's managed the amazing feat of being involved in the business for DECADES, and still never improving from his days as Hercules!
As for his writing and...
I predict he's wrong.
There's a little factor that some people...actually ENJOY living their lives.
Not everyone wants to outsource every aspect of their existence, especially the parts that make that existence worthwhile, to an AI.
A new #LifeIsStrange game coming out in March! Guess I know what my next gaming purchase will be!
...break those rules.
When you get someone who has NEITHER honour, nor integrity, they simply choose NOT to punish themselves for their own rules breaches.
I thought the entire POINT of the Ministerial Code was that if someone broke the rules the intent was they were expected to resign.
Just like Johnson, he shows the issue with a system which relies on personal honour and integrity of individual ministers to obey the rules and to resign if they...
Signed! If MP's are SO convinced that the policies of a particular party represent the will of the people, then they can RUN on those policies.
Not run as part of a more popular party, only to yell "SURPRISE SUCKERS!" when they Trojan Horse their way into a seat for 4-5 years.
Aw...poor her! A house she owns, millions in the bank...
...I'm perfectly sure there are plenty of people who would more than happily trade places with her if she finds it so awful!
