  • Ehhh… Our president is great at appearing to be left-leaning, but at the end of the day the average spaniard sees no change in their quality of life, as most of the money goes to futile campaigns that show how cool and progressive our government is, instead of actual change. He is a very good diplomat, by which I mean he lies very well and keeps good apperances and relations with the outside world. Don’t get me wrong, I’d much rather have him in government than the (far) right coalition of PP/Vox (which is always really close to winning when they aren’t going after eachother…), but his party is still a status-quo party. The last elections, it seemed their whole campaign was based on “stopping” the far right, which is good, but come on, give me something more to work with.

    And what I said about funneling money towards shitty achieve-nothing-while-looking-good campaigns? The more left leaning party Sumar is that x10 (or their leader at least). And also they managed to lose leftist votes in general by fracturing from the previous party, Podemos. Yay for leftist infighting!


  • I got my driver’s license pretty recently and in driving classes I was always told to look at the left first to see if anyone is inside the roundabout, and then to the right to see if I have to let someone go before me (on small roundabouts). Think it from a logical standpoint: A wouldn’t even need to completely stop to let C in first, while, if A goes first, C needs to stop and wait while A passes in front of them.

    It may be a new rule, because no one seems to know about it (or pay it any mind).


  • Ok, now do one where C and A arrive at the same time to an empty roundabout and A still, to this day, thinks they have the right of way. Because why wait a fraction of a second when I can make others wait for a lot longer?

    I hate having classes in a classroom with windows pointing to a roundabout because I get to realize how NO ONE seems to do them correctly… (In Spain, for reference)










  • Adding to the other comment, I feel like you can get a taste for all that by visiting the game’s subreddit. Seeing all the cool things people do and how the community moves the story forward really motivates me to play the game. I guess you could also watch a youtube video to get up to date on the story and different ways to play the game.

    It is a great game but you really do need to look stuff up to fully enjoy it, unfortunately. Also, space trucking is only one way to play it.
