a line from an npr article about the amount of money spent against Zohtan Mamdani. Namely "Wall Street CEOs and other billionaires spent more than $40 million trying to stop Zohran Mamdani from winning the New York City mayor's race."

Clark is an immigrant orphan raised in a rural community, so understands at some level a feeling of isolation. How can they use the Gentle approach to reach out a hand capable of impossible earth shaking strength instead in kindness, empathy, and a better tomorrow?

sidebar: Who Defines The Canon? Much of this playbook forces you to engage with art that is considered the literary and artistic canon. But it is worth asking, especially given this games anticolonialist themes, who gets to voice and determine the canon. The canon is rarely a result mass cultural consensus, but curation of those with social and academic power. The cultural default is determined by those with power and access to these things and their own personal taste. It is a narrative made of many parts and often, exclusion. It is important to interrogate how that might interact with matters of race, class, gender, and nation. And keep interrogating and expanding these narratives. An absence is a culture-size hole and an admission. But like all holes it can be filled if you hold the knowledge and willingness. Narratives can be changed. and as long as it fits the prerequisites of the game's world (and maybe if it doesn't) it can be on our shared table.
According to CWA, the union that helped many game workers at Microsoft organize, id Software had 185 employees as of last December, 165 of whom joined the union. The majority of those laid off this week were CWA members; a cynical mind could come to the conclusion that Microsoft ripped and tore this specific studio to the bone for a reason, especially after it spent years stalling contract negotiations with a plethora of studios under its umbrella. Then again, most id employees were union, so it could also have just been a simple numbers game. Regardless, id is now in tatters.
