One of my favourite Matt Berry songs, #Solstice. If you’ve never heard Matt’s music, this atmospheric 9 minute epic is a good example of his folk/prog work, which has hints of early Mike Oldfield.

Today's part 2 was pretty difficult for me!
The naive way worked well for part 1 (as usual) but I immediately understood that I shouldn't even try to reuse it for part 2.
In a very DP fashion, Counter() saves the day.

Report: "We kill civilians & count them as terrorists". Units compete to kill the most Palestinians: “If Division 99 kills 150, the next unit aims for 200.”
Israeli officers say the army systematically shoots all Palestinians, including children, approaching the Netzarim Corridor - a "kill zone" that is not marked.
"After shootings, bodies are not collected, attracting packs of dogs who come to eat them.”

Looks like YouTube is blocking adblockers again. This time, they are claiming that the use of adblockers violates its terms of service.
I read the terms of service: youtube.com/t/terms#20c5cf0fa6 There is nothing in there about adblockers. And yes, I actually read the terms, I didn't just search for 'adblock'; contrary to youtube.com's lies, you are NOT required to disable adblock.
So once again, let's delve into how to watch get around YouTube's adblockerblocker.

It's interesting that in both Norse and Greek mythologies, all the top gods were parents. But in fictional pantheons that come to mind, not so much.
Myth Thor has three children with Sif. Marvel Thor has three grandchildren in a possible future, grandmother and parents unknown.
Why make functions for everything when you can put everything into setters and getters?
Legitimately all game settings I made so far are applied/read by changing variables.
It looks wonky to read, but it made the settings UI REALLY simple to code.
