Anera is the charity I’ve been considering. They’ve got good ratings from Charity Navigator, Charity Watch, etc.

“Anera is responding to the immense humanitarian need in Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem. Your donation will provide immediate and sustainable relief in Palestine, Lebanon and Jordan.”

The Netflix series Sex Education is all about a wide variety of characters’ wellbeing and mental health. Even antagonistic “bad” characters tend to have hidden depths and nuance. As a show it was also surprisingly gentle with its characters, rather than just constantly beating them up for drama’s sake.

I was lucky enough to get one of the transparent red ones from the second round of limited editions, but the new red one looks gorgeous as well.

Not sure why folks here are so down on Pocket. I’ve used it on a daily basis since it was called Read It Later, long before the Mozilla acquisition. It’s a handy way to hang on to links temporarily, when bookmarking is overkill and I don’t want to have a million browser tabs open.

Very often I spot something on Mastodon (or pre-Musk Twitter) or one of my Discord servers and want to come back to it later. Maybe I’m on my iPhone and the site is something that would be better on my PC monitor. Maybe it’s a YouTube video and I’m someplace where I can’t play sound. Pocket does the job.

Several of the Commander Cody serials can be seen in early episodes of Mystery Science Theater 3000.

A Short Hike is a very charming game that’s included in the sale. If you’ve picked up one of the bigger charity bundles on itch.io in the last couple years you may already own it.

It hasn’t been that long since their last SF-themed release, with Gabriel Soma and The Singularity.

That being said, I love Alien and a Nostromo map could be amazing.

The children were devoured by saltwater crocodiles, venomous spiders, and Drop Bears within minutes.

At a minimum, I’d want to be able to unrealistically change direction in mid-air.

I’d like to be able to double jump, platform video game-style. Mostly pointless in daily life, but imagine how good it would feel?

Jumpman on the Commodore 64.

Outlast is 2spooky4me. Got pretty far in, but then just couldn’t get past the dread.

Never played it, but Alien: Isolation is a cool-looking game I’m not going to even bother attempting.

I love the standalone Gwent game (which I played first), but hated the more primitive version they used in The Witcher 3. Never touched it beyond what they required.
