Tomorrow, on April 12th, #Hungary elects its national assembly, which then will elect the country's prime minister. There is a real chance Victor #Orbàn won't get another turn of being PM, but Péter #Magyar will be voted in.
Politico calls it "this year's most consequential election in the #EU." Hungary will alao be better off without him!
Fingers crossed 🤞
A group of investigative journalists, including @michaeldweiss, obtained another intercepted conversation between Hungary’s FM Péter Szijjártó and Lavrov.
It appears that Moscow may have been able to access virtually any information it sought from the EU/NATO via Budapest.

I watched Mr. Nobody Against Putin tonight. What a beautiful movie. To use another movie title, I think "I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore" is a very accurate description of what the protagonist is going through. My brain is still processing. Watch it, if you get the chance.

Agreed, I also don't understand it. Then again, you will always have some fans who will be disappointed, regardless what you do, I guess. Especially if you make a sequel to a classic decades after the original release... Glad you hear you enjoyed it as well!
You did it! 🥳

True, I also prefer the art style over the remakes! They were fun to play again, though.
I wishlisted it and only bought it some weeks back - shame on me 😉
Hehe, true, and don't forget the demon pepper when cooking... 😉
I finally managed to play @grumpygamer's Return to Monkey Island. Great #game, I must say. Specifically the dialogues and their wit were a blast.
I also enjoyed the graphic style alot, which draw some criticism by fans when the first screenshots were released. To me, it does feel like #MonkeyIsland, but in a fresh look.
The hint book is a nice addition. IMHO that is a nice way to bring good old point and click #adventures to the modern, fast paced #world.
