Crusader Kings 3 modding legend strikes again with impressive African expansion

It would be practically impossible for a game to cover the entire history of the world with enough detail to satiate every appetite. Luckily, that's where the players come in. Crusader Kings 3 is a brilliant historical strategy game, but its focus is predominately on Europe. Many pieces of DLC expand on that region, including the forthcoming All ...

For most people the joy of living is muted by the daily grind. They never find the time or the money to embrace life on their own terms. Some people, keeping an open mind, however, discover an escape route from the drudge of daily living.

Israel is moving to ethnically cleanse Gaza City while starving 2 million people to death. We cannot sit on our phones and watch this happen. We are listening to Bisan's call — it is time to escalate on a global level. When governments refuse to listen, we, as a global collective, must strike where it hurts them most: their economies.
We are calling for a global economic strike to shake economies around the world. Starting Thursday 21st August, and continuing every Thursday thereafter, we call on groups, organisations, and unions everywhere to join the strike for Gaza.

DON'T BUY ANYTHING
• Make no purchases of any kind on Thursdays. • Check that no subscriptions or automatic payments are scheduled to leave your account on Thursdays. • This boycott covers all businesses. Plan ahead: stock up on food and essentials beforehand, and if possible, support independent businesses on the days before and after the strike. • For the strike to have impact, we must spend nothing

THIS STRIKE DOESN'T INCLUDE WORK
• Many of us live paycheque to paycheque, and not everyone can risk losing a job by refusing to work. • Where possible, consider using holiday days or personal leave to reduce production on Thursdays. • Even if you cannot stay home, your participation in the spending strike alone is a massive contribution. We are not calling for you to lose your job.

🧬 Genetic Predisposition to Narcissistic Traits: What Recent Studies Say 🧠

Recent research suggests that narcissistic personality traits may have a genetic component. Twin and family studies indicate that genetics can account for a significant part of the variability in narcissistic behaviors. However, genes are not destiny—environmental factors, such as upbringing and life experiences, also play a crucial role in shaping how these traits develop.

Understanding the genetic influence helps us approach narcissism with more empathy and supports efforts in early intervention and therapy. Whether you are navigating narcissistic tendencies in yourself or others, knowledge is key to healing and growth. 🌱✨

🧠 Oxytocin & Dopamine: The Neurochemistry of Validation Addiction 🧠

When we seek validation, our brain releases oxytocin and dopamine — the “feel-good” chemicals. Oxytocin fosters connection, while dopamine reinforces rewarding behaviors. This can lead to an addiction to external approval, making us overly reliant on others’ validation for self-worth.

Understanding this helps us break the cycle. Healing means cultivating self-validation and healthy boundaries instead of chasing constant external affirmation. Remember, your worth isn’t defined by likes or compliments, but by your authentic self. 💛 #NPD #MentalHealth #SelfWorth

🔗 Attachment theory exploited to keep the partner "tied."

Attachment theory explains how early bonds shape our relationships. Unfortunately, in some unhealthy dynamics, this natural desire for closeness is manipulated. A narcissistic partner might exploit their partner's attachment needs—like fear of abandonment or desire for security—to maintain control and keep them emotionally "tied."

Recognizing this pattern can be empowering. Healing involves building secure attachments with oneself and learning to set boundaries. Remember: healthy love is based on mutual respect, not control. 💙 #AttachmentTheory #NarcissisticAbuse #HealingJourney

Pour avancer, il faudrait des excuses publiques de tous les technos-solutionnistes qui annonçaient qu'on allait limiter un réchauffement mondial à +1.5°C avec la technologie. Les vendeurs de fusion, d'aspirateurs de carbone etc. Vont-ils enfin admettre qu'on doit changer nos modes de vie ?

Des personnes parfois médiatiques, invitées sur les plateaux TV ou dans des médias sans contradiction. Des excuses et un mea culpa seraient non seulement bienvenus mais incroyablement bénéfique.

Anyway, here's CGA Trek!

It's my deep historical dive into a genre going back to 1971 that started with a game that was played on printers not monitors.

It also has some of my best art direction adhering to a strict magenta and cyan 4-colour CGA palette.

But ultimately, it's my loving letter to the classic EGA Trek game from the 1990s.
