To be serious for a moment: I absolutely agree with you!
As it happens, I’m a parent to a Ukrainian human being who cannot see part of their family because of a war being flapped by the Russia :(
There’s plenty of flapping about it in my everyday life, and that kind of desensitises to a lot of things. And makes one want to make jokes. Missiles have exploded in front of two of the houses where I lived when I lived in Ukraine.

1·2 days agoWhat is so good about donkey meat? Is it similar to horse meat?
But we also could stop at war. Such a cute thing to flap, innit?
Oh, is it powered the same way computers are? I mean, does it work with blue smoke that must in no circumstances be allowed to escape the device?
I was kind of interested if we’ll end up with wardrobes or wargs or what ;)
But flapping one’s war… Is okay as well! Go flappy, go!

(The one swimming towards right, apparently?)
Bluetooth? Or British Telecom?
A mother’s milk is considered vegan because (if) it comes with the mammal’s consent. Pretty much the same applies to human sperm. At least if a human explicitly allows you to take its shit for some use, it is absolutely vegan. But then there’s the question of whether shit is always vegan.
Vegan shit… What shit is vegan? Human shit obviously, but how about foraged free-range shit from wild animals?
Is it being stolen from the earthworms, or can it be considered vegan?
Hah, I hadn’t even remembered the self-created obstacle I have, that I’m trying to stop buying anything from the US-based Steam and buy all new games from (Polish?) GOG instead.
And Forza Horizon is not available there.
But, I’ll mention here under this post that my brother gave me a good recommendation: The Flatout series. Flatout 2 is available on GOG, and looks like something I’ll surely be playing a salary day or two! I already tried Flatout 4, (or: “Fl4tout” 🤣), which ran as a very beatiful slideshow on my computer. Flatout 2 might be what I’m looking for.
Oh, and I do need to give props to Screamer 2, another game I used to play as a child! It has very similar track scenery design to NFS II, although I do like that of NFS II better. It has secret passages, after all! What is a realistic racing game with 100% real cars if it has not shortcuts, enabling you to comfortably use your McLaren F1 car to caress sand roads going through woods?
I think the game style I am after should probably be called kitsch racing game.
Don’t they… Pee and poo a LOT in that hay?!
I’ve once removed “used” hay from a stable, and damn that was some heavy and smelly stuff!
The new ones are extremely different in level design. They are just cities where you drive around.
What I like is when a racing game is built in a way that the scenery around is placed so that it conveys a specific atmosphere, even if the resulting composition doesn’t really make much sense. You cannot do that if you also want to give a sandbox atmosphere of “drive freely wherever you will”. As the races force you to drive along specific ways all the same, I feel that the player loses more than gains in that kind of “freedom”. A “roam freely in the city” kind of game has more realism, but less fun.
NOW we are talking!
…about something?







Wollen ist eine Sache. Tun ist etwas anderes.
Es ist gar nicht das erste mal, dass EU-Kommission dies will. Bzw. wolle.
Aber gut, es kann auch was werden. Daumen drücken, auch wenn die ziemlich deprimierte zwei Däumchen sind.
