  • Pride parade in Kiev in 2022 lasted 10 minutes, organisators dispersed them because crowd of neonazis gathered and it started to look really dangerous. In 2023 it was cancelled afaik, in 2024 there was 500 participants and way more cops, and in 2025 there was around 1500 participants including soldiers and support from other countries (with unknown numbers for both) and there was so many cops they formed multiple ranks around.





  • Don’t the greybeards still have quite a bit of dialogue?

    No, actually not, except Arngeir who is the most proficient in Thu’um, even they risk releasing the power. Or maybe they just got used to silence after decades of maintaining it. It’s actually indicating Ulfric talent and control he managed to become warlord and politician despite it.

    both the player & Miraak are quite talkative

    Yes but it’s because both of them are actual Dragonborn for which dragon language is no problem, but Greybeards including Ulfric are normal (if talented) humans, for them learning and controlling Thu’um is much more difficult.


  • To be fair he’s gagged and and apparently in the middle of silent tantrum so he’s not very communicative in this scene, though even later when he’s back on his throne and even during Stormcloak questline he’s not very memorable too, you mostly talk with Galmar Stonefist who is more expressive. I guess it’s explained by him being apprentice to Greybeards and wielding some degree of Thu’um, you just don’t flap your gums carelessly when you can demolish everything around you accidentally.









  • rights of the individual, liberty, consent of the governed, political equality, right to private property, and equality before the law.

    Sounds nice in complete void of ideal definition, but even in this sterile ideal you can immediately think that those values are gonna clash, and in capitalism, system which entire reason is maximising profit, naturally the one prevailing over all others is private property. From there we look at our reality and indeed, we see all others trampled, meaningless and being used as fig leaf.



  • French overseas regions are officially part of France, while US except Hawaii are not, so they likely are not counted in this statistics for US. Also the France has 4-4,5% of total population in overseas territories while US have around 1% so their impact in case of France would be also over 4 times greater.

    So it’s most certainly just the good US of A.
