Unilateral Coercive Measures as a critical impediment to the realization of the Right to Development.

In her most recent reports, from 2023 and 2024, the Special Rapporteur of the Human Rights Council on the negative impact of unilateral coercive measures on the enjoyment of human rights, Professor Alena F. Douhan, reported on the increasing trend of over-compliance with so-called "sanctions" by governments, companies, and various entities.

Watch the Unilateral Coercive Measures as a critical impediment to the realization of the Right to Development!

The Mechanisms from someone who has never listened to The Mechanisms

There's an album where it's all the brothers Grimm fairy tales but now it's futuristic space fantasy and war crimes

gay space pirates

There is a sentient ship

The sentient ship and it's engineer are in a gay wlw relationship

Things keep going into the sun apperantly

Some dude forgets trans people exist, this causes problems

There's a character named like, tinker toyman or something

Everyone dies all the time

In Ulysses dies at dawn, Ulysses dies at dawn

If you have a mythology, congrats its mechanisms now

Everything is a mechanisms reference, you're gay? Mechanisms refrence

More gay people

The ship goes into the sun, everyone dies this may happen more than once I don't know

The Ship x Engineer Yuri gets broken up tragically

Seriously forgetting trans people exist causes more problems then you'd think

i find it so funny how in the bifrost incident marius changed the line from 'we're deadly when we're drunk' to 'we'll get you stinking drunk' like mans really went hm. maybe we'll censor this one in front of the cop.

What's an otome?

You read a picture book to romance fictional characters, anon.

(for reference: on page 2 the second panel characters are from Steam Prison. Vita touch mechanic mention is Bad Apple Wars and the sexism call outs is in Sweet Fuse.)

I struggle personally with the self-insert intended otome because I look at characters and go "that's my son now" and I can't romance my son! That's why I prefer games with a designated design and some bare-bones personality protags. THEY can romance my son.

sabine wren now having the fandom reputation of being a girlfail loser when in rebels she’s one of the more competent and widely skilled characters is so

Bifrost incident au where they do somehow survive—idk, maybe one of the band intervenes—and only Loki, Thor, and Sigyn are sane and alive enough to be questioned but none of them are talking and anyway the regime that would have made them all criminals is gone so eventually they’re set free into a world that doesn’t remotely resemble the one they knew

Mostly I like this kind of story for exploring how not-ok Loki still is in a her-brain-is-only-half-fixed way, and how not-ok Sigyn is in she-already-grieved and her-wife-is-a-ghost ways. But I also like the idea that they’re stuck with Thor now because where else is he going to go, and he was on their side in the end. And it’s weird and awkward in between the sweet and sad

question: what is gameplay in outer wilds like? i know absolutely nothing about this game - not even the vibes or gameplay

outer wilds is a puzzle platformer with an emphasis on the puzzles over the platforming i would say!! main gameplay involves 1. controlling your ship (controls can be finicky and strange but autopilot helps) and 2. controlling your character as you navigate different planets in the solar system you are exploring, each of which functions on slightly different mechanical rules and therefore requires slightly different maneuvering skills. in general, if you are unsuccessful at platforming, it’s because you haven’t found where the game tells you the ‘trick’ of that planet rather than just because the platforming is itself difficult. it is occasionally tense (especially the dlc, echoes of the eye, which is more horror themed), and often requires efficiency, accurate timing, and knowing where you’re going, but doesn’t often require quick reaction times or specific movement techniques or things like that!! because of the way the game functions, you never lose more progress than you can get back in like, 10-15 minutes, so the repetitive aspects didn’t bug me too much for that reason.

as for vibes and story, you play as a young astronaut leaving their home planet to explore their solar system for the first time!!! they (and by extension you) do not have a specific goal, so it’s about exploring what you find interesting and learning about it. the solar system works on toy box-esque rules - planets are small, easily navigable, and slightly cartoony, more super mario galaxy or little prince than no man’s sky. the type of game where yes, you need a space suit to not die in space, but your space suit does feature normal hiking boots. you know. it’s fun!!! it’s a fun game!!!

does anyone else randomly wish they could live as a student in medieval times just to be the apprentice of a painter, astronomer or mathematician and get to study whatever you want whenever you want? or like during the renaissance era? or is it just me? once I had a dream I was an apprentice for a painter in a medieval structured building and it felt so nostalgic yet so distant; it made me sad but happy to learn, I suppose that’s where this yearning derives
