    Conflict between Palestine and Israel escalates

    Here's where he starts bringing it up. Also, keep in mind that the title of the video is referring to his first guest, the guy talking about the history of the region is his second guest.

    I'll rewatch the discussion and give you time stamps (they're short moments) once I get home.

    Historian talks history. But basically, a lot of current buzzwords only started being used about Israel because of Soviet propaganda.

    Holy shit! Sean's entire schtick suddenly makes sense! It's just about loyalty to Russia!

    Fantastic rebuttal. Like how you continue to show how the word 'nazi' originates from the word 'socialist'.

    Staying at home is the norm... What are you reading?

    Man... The Pluto manga really is disappointing. There's so much good stuff in it but it poisons itself with allegory. On the last volume and I think I'll need to wait a while before I finished it. Hopefully my eyes roll back forward soon.

    You'll love Odon then. But as for the cutscenes, they certainly look better than the original's as far as pure quality, but again, it feels like they also miss some of the flavor of the first. The sketchy messy look felt appropriate for the violence of the game. The first game was also...

    Blasphemous 2 An excellent game though it could use work to bring it up to par with it's predecessor, though the devs seem to be working on that. I think though, that currently, while I'd say it has better gameplay than the original, it feels like it lacks things on the edges that made the OG so...

    Teslagrad 2. Eh... It's a fine enough game, but it feels like they really should have tightened things up from the previous game. Lots of improvements could have been made on readability, glitches, and sound design that weren't taken and the setting just doesn't have the same lure that the OG...
