Yep, exactly that. There are laws that say if you work more than a certain number of hours per week, you're entitled to benefits like pension, paid holiday, etc. Zero hours contracts let companies get away with not providing those, as they'll keep each individual staff member below the required hours, because there's no guarantee of a minimum number of hours in their contract.

It's absolutely atrocious, but the government spins it to make it sound like a benefit by saying you have extra time, you can lead a flexible life. What it means in reality for most people is that they need multiple jobs and still get no benefits that a full time job would provide.

Sometimes we need to do stuff that is illegal in certain countries to further our rights. I get that this is a tricky rule to implement, but there are countries that it is illegal to be queer. So our very existence is illegal. Don't be afraid to break a law or two.

I know that MAP people like to try to glom on to queer rights, and I'm completely against that, but we shouldn't fear fighting against injustice when it's illegal to live a life of love against hate.

Many years ago, I was at a sci-fi costume party, and a guy's costume was just a Jaffa Cake stuck to his forehead. He was a Jaffa.

The same director went on to direct Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, Kill la Kill, and Promare. None of them are as wild as Dead Leaves, but all are top tier anime. He's one of my favourite directors, and knows how to balance comedy, action and art perfectly.

Played through the entire game, started on NG+. I really enjoyed it, the story was definitely a Final Fantasy story, much better than XV.

My one gripe is the lack of mini-games, which apparently was intentional on the part of the devs. All side content is still combat focused.

You can get through most of the game not truly mastering combat, but NG+ is a different story. Overall, a solid 8/10 game.
