https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Alliance_(book) Is the original expose about cia involvement with crack, and still I think a good starting place, even if it has some flaws. It was less about what crack would do to americans, (though they were completely apathetic towards the harm they were doing in the US) and more to do with what the cia wanted to do with off books funding that crack provided, secretly fund paramilitary deathsquads in Nicaragua.
I think if the CIA is still involved in US drug trafficking, and I wouldn’t be surprised, it is probably still for off books funding primarily.
Perception of the vietnam war protests at the time were also very split, and I would be very unsurprised to find that the people most against the student protests now are, or are the children of people who were very against the social movements of the 60s. The 60s were also an incredibly divided time in the US politically. Nixon won the whitehouse in 1968, and the civil rights movement had met extremely bitter opposition.
All means testing does, is split support for it.
It also makes it more expensive to implement, because there is bureaucratic labor involved in compliance.
What is your top 10 that doesn’t have zelda then?
Harry potter and bethesda both have built in fanbases despite not being that relevant for the last decade-ish. I’m not very surprised they were able to make 7 and 8 on a top 50 list.

just a popularity contest
Just what it says on the tin then?
Not particularly, but I’m also not bothered by the presence of more than one color.
I think the 2 tones of blue make it look more like a basic corporate design than “high-brow”
We’ll be trying to get our hands on a nice flag with the original design#1953 on it to fly outside our house. This one is fine I guess, but it stings with what could have been.
I think they have to get to the point where they mightbplay a video game on their own before stardew valley would land for them. They weren’t particularly inspired by the trailers.
I dunno that nidhogg would be a good game for us together, but it looks up my alley to play solo sometime.
Thanks!
I’ll look into My time at sand rock, stardew didn’t catch their interest when we were looking at trailers and such earlier tonight.
Love bg3, I think that could be in the cards maybe a game or two down the line!
Audiosurf is a blast from the past! That was one of the early games I played a lot of on steam, it might be a good low stakes option sometime.
I have a Wii U in storage at my parent’s house, I might see about us checking some games out when we visit for the holidays in a couple weeks. I don’t want to overwhelm them too much though.
I think this is gonna have the same problem as mario kart, so I probably need to wait until they have some more game experience. Last year when I had my last smash phase they enjoyed the music being on in the background though.
I love dos2 and bg3, if we can work up to those I would count that as a huge success
BG3 has been making me want to go back and play some of the earlier D&D crpgs, but it might be a miss for my partner at this point. Neverwinter Nights is based on 2nd edition right?
We have Jaws of the Lion.
Looking into secretariat for gloomhaven quickly, it looks really useful, I’ve been thinking about the gloomhaven video game as an option too. There are things I like about physical more, but I also think it’d be very convenient.
I super appreciate the implied offer, and hope that someone fills your spot. I am however on west coast time, and am kinda half evening shift schedule besides, so I wouldn’t be able to make that at all regularly…
Thank you though!
Trine 2 got recommended by someone else specifically among the Trine games, and I have that and Magicka in my steam library, unplayed. So I think those might get a shot at some point.
Vermintide 2 is great! I’ve played quite a bit of it, but I don’t think we’re quite ready for that yet.
Thanks!
It is though: self driving into objects
