I went back and forth on it. The campaign is just the meta progression, the missions are the randomized element. Comparing to Darkest Dungeon for example, it's really similar in structure.

Official Act to lockup the fascists as domestic terrorists, then bow out of the race.

Ok, sticking to roguelites, here's some other options:

Deckbuilding Style: Slay the Spire, Monster Train, Griftlands, Balatro

Survivor/Bullet-Heaven Style: Vampire Survivors, Brotato, Deep Rock Galactic Survivor

Realtime Combat (I'd put Hades/Dead Cells here): Hand of Fate 1/2, Zero Sievert, Wall World, Rogue Legacy 1/2, Risk of Rain 1/2, Heroes of Hammerwatch

FPS: Gunfire Reborn, Roboquest

Turn-based/Pausable: FTL, The Last Spell, Loop Hero, Dungeons of Dredmor, Darkest Dungeon 1/2, Backpack Hero, Into the Breach, XCOM: Enemy Unknown, XCOM 2

Sure I missed some other good stuff.

Not a roguelite/roguelike but if you liked the combat style of Hades, check out Bastion.

For public ones, depending on what people started getting, it'd really strain the AIs. You could go in like 1 or two ways, probably different people getting both.

Something very uniform but still unique, like a QR code kind of deal, AIs would hallucinate the crap out of that. Or abstractions, like people do to change the way the shape of their face to combat facial recognition.

For private ones, just don't ever get it photographed, any image showing that area without it would be probably fake.

I am waiting for people to start getting both public and hidden authentication tattoos, so they can prove generative images aren't actually them.

I'm not sure why light would matter, obviously if you're flying you'd use wind over solar, there's so much wind flowing around the planes it'd be a much more available and reliable source of power.

It's listed under each title in the article.

Biden never any public or official statement about only serving 1-term, in fact when that story started circulating, the official response from his campaign was to say that they were not ruling it out.

I prefer the "Darth Jar Jar" and "The Bloop" levels of conspiracy theories.

I think you're suggesting that he committed to being a 1-term president as part of his campaign. You might be remembering a bunch of sensationalized articles based on a Politico article where an unnamed "prominent advisor" said "he won't be running for reelection" and a bunch of other mostly unnamed people also suggested he wouldn't/shouldn't run again. Which led to tons of other articles, which parroted it as fact.

The Politico article even further went on to be updated after it was first published to add a quote from Biden's deputy campaign manager and communications director at the time, which stated Biden was "not privately considering declining to run for re-election."

So he never made that commitment and the only official communication refuted the speculation.

Reference Politico - Biden Single Term

Slate even covered this recently in another article, where they were unable to locate any official commitment related to serving a single term.

Disclaimer: I also wish we had another option, just presenting some evidence. Maybe it'll make you feel better with your choice.

They might be in one of the 35-40 states where their vote doesn't matter anyway.

National Popular Vote Interstate Compact is only 72 Electoral Votes away from being enacted, but it's getting harder and harder...
