Rift Riff is a beautifully designed tower defense game about pumping juice
Rift Riff is all about jumping through portals (okay Rifts, whatever) and extracting precious juice. Monsters don't like you doing that though but the juice must flow. It's out now with Native Linux support.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)

Germany arrests self-declared 'king' and bans his extremist group
Peter Fitzek, 59, was among those arrested in morning raids across seven states on Tuesday, which involved about 800 security personnel.The government banned their group, the Reichsbรผrger, or "citizens of the Reich", which seeks to establish the Kรถnigreich Deutschland, or "Kingdom of Germany".
Alexander Dobrindt, German's interior minister, accused the group of attempting to "undermine the rule of law" by creating an alternative state and spreading "antisemitic conspiracy narratives to back up their supposed claim to authority".
His ministry announced the dissolution of the group, and accused it of financing itself through "economic criminal structures".

A few takeaways from my research:
1 - Not one staffer said theyโd turn to scientists first when facing a science-related question.
2 - Party leadership, lobbyists, and trusted friends-of-friends often have more influence than peer-reviewed studies.
3 - Scientists are unintentionally sidelining themselves by only engaging with one side of the aisle.

I was given a Barney doll on my second birthday. According to my parents, I set it down on the coffee table, took a step back, and held an excited look of anticipation for several seconds.
You see, in the original VHS tapes, Barney was a doll that the kids would set down on a table, and then he transformed into the full-sized Barney. I clearly thought my real-life Barney doll would do the same thing.
I'm not sure I've ever recovered from this betrayal.
