for people who are unaware of why the riots in minneapolis started happening, here’s the facts:
it wasn’t george floyd’s protesters who started reacting violently; it was the cops.
the protest was peaceful until the cops showed up in riot gear, and started using water cannons, followed up by tear gas and rubber bullets. i got videos from friends who were there, of people screaming and running away from the cops shooting the water cannons, rubber bullets and throwing tear gas at them. they were even shooting at the protesters dragging people away to get medical attention.
speaking of medical attention, dispatch refused to provide any medical attention to the protesters. people literally had to drive their bleeding friends to the hospital because they refused to send ambulances.
cops are using non-lethal weapons in a lethal way. they shot rubber bullets into people’s heads and injured them. there’s dozens of photos of protesters with bleeding head wounds from the rubber bullets.
multiple people used police scanners and heard that there were undercover cops pretending to be violent protesters who were throwing rocks and whatnot at the police, with dozens of eyewitness accounts confirming that information.
the person who instigated all the chaos last night (it was a fire at an autozone) with the looting and burning buildings is highly suspected to be an undercover cop pretending to be a protester, because the video of him keeps getting taken down. protesters tried to stop him but couldn’t because he had a hammer and they were scared for their safety.
the cops jammed cell phone towers and cut live streams to interrupt broadcasts and to prevent people from seeing what was really going on and who actually started the violence.
the cops lied about protesters being armed and about throwing rocks and are literally trying to continue the violence happening and yet no one is holding them accountable for that.
and during all this, the cop that murdered george floyd still hasn’t been arrested. he has had more than ten complaints filed against him and was involved in three other civilian shootings in the past. and yet he’s still out free along with his three other buddies involved, probably sitting on his couch while all this chaos is happening.
so don’t get it twisted. the cops just want to change the narrative to make it look like they’re the wounded and righteous party, when they’re the ones who started reacting violently in the first place and are still acting violently. so don’t you ever forget who started this tragedy and murdered someone, and who are continuing to react to the situation with violence.

I want a reboot of Friendship Is Magic where everything is the same, except they can say fuck.

“The pain, I can assure you, will be exquisite. As for our deaths, there is nothing to fear. Our names will be written on a thousand walls. Our crimes told and retold by our faithful believers. We shall die together in front of their very eyes and give them something to be haunted by. Come with me and be immortal.”-Candyman

Hearing the rumors about Far Cry 7 reminded me of the fact that canonically in the world of Far Cry, this man killed Kim Jong-Ill.
POV: Your Lex just trying to survive an ancient pyramid made for an alien species of warrior hunter’s rite of passage, when the last surviving member of the Predator’s hunting party she needs to convince to team up with her decides to make her a cool gift.

So my (safe) bet for Badlands is that the Elder Predator we see going after Dek in the trailer, is his father. The plot details we got the other day mention Dek is trying to prove himself to his father, so his father also being the Clan Elder has way too much drama and angst potential to be ignored.
Side Bar: My second bet is that Elle Fanning’s line “Your hunting something that can’t be killed” is setting up Dek to deliver “If it bleeds, I can kill it.”, double points for me if it’s the only line Dek says in the movie that’s in English.
I might do a more interesting Lily (CD-Call) post later related to Dragon Age/Mass Effect, but for now I’ll settle for a nice and simple one.
It’s objectively really funny that Lily is apparently an Ander’s defender, like certified Angsty White Boy hater Lily fuckin Orchard picked the funniest Angsty White Boy to make an exception for. Like she could’ve gone on about awful he is the same way she does for guys like Hunter and most people’s response would’ve been “Oh you hate the guy who makes everything a thousand times worse for everybody, especially mages??. Yeah that makes sense, that’s fair.”
I mean I know it’s because Lily sees the mages the same way she sees the Krogan, as just innocent oppressed victims who are 100% justified in any extreme violent action even if it’s objectively a bad move that makes everything worse. And also, she likes being a contrarian cause it let her pretend like she has an original opinion/thought.
