No the joke is that this is that sassy but supporting friend saying it. It's a reality check and an opportunity to ask for help from the friend saying it.

Huh, fascinating stuff. Wonder what triggers it

??? Frogs breed super quick and aren't that tricky to breed in captivity? I'd even go so far and say that frog meat should be rather sustainable since they eat insects which we can also breed effectively and they in turn can eat refuse from farming. I also haven't ever seen or heard about the frog being of a particular breed or "wild caught" being part of the allure, nor seen it mentioned in a menu. This whole thing is absurd.

Probably the only type of destruction of art as protest I condone. The piece:

  1. Is not very old or culturally/historically important
  2. Directly depicts someone at the root of this conflict
  3. Was deliberately targeted and the reasons layed out

Trying to destroy unrelated art work is just wasteful of our shared human heritage. Attacking symbols of oppression however is perfectly valid in my opinion and is to me perfectly reasonable escalation when peaceful protests obviously do not bring the changes needed.

I put this on the same level as African Americans attacking statues of confederate generals and other proponents of slavery to hammer home their point.

I wonder if you can make it "green wash" which is forbidden under EU law... Though what I can see the "feature" doesn't seem available where I'm at. Likely because the risk it will do something illegal is too great.

That kid has serious swagger, real stand user energy

As I understand it Dreadwolf is like Andromeda in that it's the same universe but not a continuation of the story, or even tightly related. But I can't say I've followed it too closely. As such there's no rush to get a Legendary edition out before it. I'd plan it for 2-3 years or so after Dreadwolf to keep the franchise in people's minds.

They did for Mass Effect with Legendary edition so maybe

Personally less time to game sadly doesn't mean less willingness to buy games, if my games libraries are any indication...

Sure, but at least they should have chosen a better timing and not call out the increase in admissions to doctors programs. Since they did the government has support in revoking licenses, something they never would have if the protest was only against the working conditions. As it is now they're protesting something that has been put forth as a solution.
