News of a ceasefire is very welcome. But there is a danger of thinking all issues are solved and Palestinians are fine now.
An apartheid is still in operation.
An occupation is still in effect.
Settlers are still terrorizing Palestinians.
Palestinians still need your advocacy.

Here‘s a secret: you will never be fully ready to do the things that scare you. Don’t waste your life waiting for ideal conditions that never come. Write that novel now. Start that project today. It will never get easier, but you can choose to get braver.

#UFO50 from @mossmouth is one of 2024's biggest mysteries. Despite critical fanfare and an awesome premise - 50 games, 1 package - it has gone unnoticed in most GOTY talks.
Well, @David_Silbert sure enjoyed it. He hopes you'll like it too.

video games having hundreds of pieces of music makes me think about how peculiar we price pieces of art. a new pop album with 12 songs will cost $10, but a video game with 400 songs, hundreds of hours of acting, world class CGI and 100 hours of gampelay is $70.
