Reporter: What do you make of Republicans saying that Virginia—
AOC: Wah wah wah.
We have asked Republicans for 10 years to ban partisan gerrymandering. And for 10 years, Republicans have said no. Republicans have fought for partisan gerrymanders across the United States of America. And these are the rules that they have set.
And so if the Republican Party wanted to start this, they did this in North Carolina. They drew out three Democratic members of Congress in North Carolina. They did it in Texas.
What they’re just mad at is that they have been accustomed to a Democratic Party that rolls over, doesn’t fight, and takes everything sitting down. And what they’re mad at right now is that we are here in a new day. And we have been asking the Democratic Party to stand up and fight, and now they did—and now the Republican Party doesn’t like the fact that they are fighting against someone who actually will stand up for the American people.
So if Republicans decide that they would like to revisit a ban on partisan gerrymandering, I welcome them. We have the bill right here to end this all today. But they don’t want to, because they like pursuing and continuing to enact an unfair electoral landscape. And so we have an obligation to defend ourselves.

From programming to level design to 3D modeling, no one can do it like our Technical Artist, Rose. One fun fact about Rose is she is colorblind! And no, that does not hinder her from being an essential part of the Art Team whatsoever!

It’s actually genuinely inspiring that a city that went through a devastating attack at such a massive scale—and all the Islamophobic reaction to it—can overcome petty bigotry and still see a Muslim as one of them. That’s truly what cities are all about.

"Plenty of Detours" was composed to be our end credits music, but it is not meant to signify the end of the journey. Instead, the journey has just begun. Excitement, adventure, and danger await. Composed by @BrianSkeel. #gamedev#zakumbaastraia#afroduckstudios#ost
"As New Friends Explore" feels exciting, new, and full of wonder. It is the beginning of a new adventure, the start of memories to last a lifetime. @brianskeel captured that childhood experience perfectly in this track. #zakumbaastraia#afroduckstudios#ost#gamedev#indiegame
