Kami: "I LOVE YOU, PLEASE LET ME LOVE YOU"
Me: "okay Kami I love you too, come here, let me give you some petting then let me get back to what I was doing." *does so*
Kami: "...What's that you want me to bite the soft sensitive flesh of your upper arm because you stopped petting me? CAN DO >:3 *omn*"

so disadvantaged students are getting worse grades because the skynet algorythm downgrades people for going to schools which have historically produced lower grades. genius system

multiple non-british people replying to this with "source?": this is happening in the uk, it was yesterday's biggest story, most british people know someone who was affected or someone whose child was affected, because all final year students sit the same exams. since students couldnt sit exams this year, the government took their grades at mock exams and the grades their teachers predicted for them, and fed it through an algorithm that marked people down for being poor

...oh. :|

welp I suppose there had to be SOME bad points. I mean Rolland uses an ableist R-slur repeatedly, which is the first point of :|

but then the mod author uses "autistic" in a negative, derogatory sense as one of the speech choices you can make. ugh. -_-

...friggin hell.

Okay damn I'm REALLY warming up to this mod. The mod repeatedly in its narrative calls out the rich fucks who made this vault you are exploring, and the particular rich fuck who was the only one to be in it when the bombs dropped.... Given this fucker had deep connections with Vault-tec, I suspect he MADE SURE he was the only one to get to use the vault and keep all the money.

imagine if someone you don't know came into your home uninvited and you started kicking them out, but they say that you're being rude and that if you had put a sign in your front yard saying "nobot" then they wouldn't have come in

You know... this is sorta starting to play out like some kind of cold case murder mystery thing and... I guess I'm into it? I'm genuinely kinda fascinated, and there's some cool perks you can get from this mod too.

World design is pretty rad. It's obviously modelled after a vault (at least this bit) but the author has definitely made it their own thing as well, and there's some neat touches.

misremembered dick turpin's name as dick turnip and was walking around the house saying 'I'm dick turnip, the greatest highwayman that ever lived'

I'm somewhat quiet about this new FONV Mod I'm playing becuase I still have not made my mind up about it. It keeps throwing me curveballs and I am not sure what message it's gonna go with just yet.

On one hand, AI robot friembs! on the other... where ya goin' with this story buddy? What's your message here??

It's not giving everything away just yet, which I appreciate, but I really don't want to get really invested and go through all this to find out the message is "FASCISM IS COOL ACTUALLY"

FONV: Autumn Leaves, we're not sure where to. (FONV Mod Reviews) 

...but the opening cinematic immediately goes into how this library was made because its very rich creators were "concerned about the political unrest around the world" before the war, and wanted to make sure they collected every book and literary work and science etc, and protect it from "censorship and destruction due to political agendas".

THAT part made me go "uh oh..." for obvious reasons :/
