The twist at the end of Terminator 3 was rad. Obviously this movie isn't close to the level of the first two but I was pleasantly surprised by it considering the lukewarm reception
T2 is just an impossible act to follow I suppose
What gets me is that Vitamin K isn't even a vaccine, conservatives are so reflexively anti-science that they're now rejecting all injections out of blind contrarianism, because "needles are sinister and scary, how dare you stick needles in my baby"
🚨 MORE Pokémon Winds & Waves potential leaks:
Via billy:
- It's been described as an "MMOlite", lot of focus on communication features.
- It will follow a similar structure to Scarlet/Violet of having 3 main stories.
- The idea is for the generation to be "the most personable" yet. "Remember all new Pokémon, to know them, to feel closer to them".
- Even if the game scope already got reduced A LOT since the initial pitch, it still will be very ambitious.
Via @kurwashibamaste:
- Salandit will get a regional evolution, Poison/Dragon.
- Lt. Surge's son will be in the game and has his dad's Raichu.
- Voice acting was planned for the game but could have been cut as it's not present in the current builds anymore.
- Online play (MMOlite features) will be the biggest technical leap in Gen 10.
- Some of the Pokémon that currently have placeholder special weather forms in the game are Arcanine, Lucario, Kecleon, Pikachu and 7 new Gen 10 Pokémon (note things can change in final game, remember Mega Jynx).
- A lot of the development team already has moved to the DLC, codenamed Zeus (note: the main game codename is Gaia).
- Winds/Waves will be an ambitious game, and the delay to 2027 was just due to needing more time to finish the game.
@Ebolable1 The game was delayed to an unspecified time next year, I don't think there's any reason to assume we know how close to completion it is nor what types of employees are being moved around.
I've been hoping for solid generic Fairy bosses, bc Kambi has so much utility in Agents but the Fairy-lock is pretty harsh for endboard options post-Apollousa. Hopefully this isn't *too* good and shares Apo's fate, lmao
The Trump administration approved three new “forever chemical”-based pesticides last week for use on food crops, including corn and soybeans — the most widely grown crops in the country — as well as wheat, kiwi, oats, peas, broccoli and coffee.
These new chemicals — diflufenican, epyrifenacil, trifludimoxazin — have all been quietly approved without a standard press release.
Trump approved other PFAS-based pesticides cyclobutrifluram and isocycloseram earlier this year, and the first food use of chlormequat — which is already found in 90% of Americans’ blood.
An EPA scientist wrote in the approval documents that at least one of these new PFAS-based pesticides is “suggestive evidence of carcinogenic potential.”
These approvals come just days after the Supreme Court sided with chemical maker Bayer and the Trump administration in limiting Americans’ ability to sue pesticide companies for harms linked to pesticides.
Now, Americans will have a harder time holding companies accountable for the cancer-causing effects of their pesticides.
