"low-information" is a new one for me.

The article you linked, if you can call it an article, is all headline. And the headline starts with "Stein says..."

Rather than focus on what a politician says, I'd rather consider their actions and choices. Like choosing to go to Russia with a bunch of treasonous fucks and sit across the table from an evil despot.

Yes, they saved my feet. I swear by them. The next best thing to getting custom $200+ orthotics from a foot doctor. I own several pairs. Even my casual shoes have them inside.

Try Super Feet inserts (the orange ones). ~$50 USD. Cheaper than a pair of running shoes. Just take out the insoles in your current pair.

I think there are a lot of manipulator accounts in Lemmy. As with any social media platform, be wary of misinformation. Sometimes it's blatant misinformation, sometimes it's more subtle with small nudges.

Conservatives have realized they're losing on the single issue gimmick of right to choose. They are trying very hard to make the Israeli Genocide the new single issue to vote over.

Waiting for them to do the Republican Party next. Also the Green Party and whatever shit party RFK is running on.

American Chinese here - yes I watched a lot of Wu Kong / A Journey to the West adaptations as a kid. Both animated and live action.

He's known as a trickster in the source material even though the style in which he's presented in this new game portrays him edgier and more serious. Usually he's more akin to Hermes or Loki.

I haven't watched any trailers so don't know much about the game, but in A Journey to the West, he's tasked with protecting and escorting a Buddhist Monk on an adventure along with other ensemble characters (like a pig for instance).

On their adventures, the monk guides and teaches him about Buddhist principles like Nirvana and enlightenment and he works on becoming less monkey-like (not giving into his impulses, anger management, etc.) Much of the humor of the series stems from their contrasting personalities.

He's also known as the Monkey King. But since I'm not fluent in Chinese it was hard to grasp some of these details and what they mean to the story. They encounter many deities, demons, spirits and other such mythological beings along the way.

His main weapon is a magical staff. From what I remember, it can grow and shrink and transform. His fur is also magical as he can pluck it and perform some magic tricks with it.

I really enjoyed this game. It's no Chrono Trigger but it was enough to give me that hit of nostalgia that I craved.
