There’s little evidence of pure nicotine being carcinogenic afaik. Nicotine in tobacco is carcinogenic due to certain reactions with other chemicals in the tobacco plant

Yeah I’m so sick of the “women and children” thing. It’s so blatantly misogynistic and helps construct the idea that every man in a warzone can be considered a combatant

I think the issue is that they fear giving workers too much freedom. With that newfound freedom, they may start realizing that they can demand more

Metroid is based! The first one I played all the way through was Metroid Prime 3, but have also played much of Prime 1 (not the remaster) and more recently played Metroid Zero Mission, Metroid II with a color mod, and Super Metroid. Super Metroid is one of the best games I’ve ever played, it’s truly incredible, though in a way Metroid II might be my second favorite 2D Metroid I’ve played so far.

I was playing Metroid Prime on my Steam Deck but haven’t picked up for a few months and sort of questioning if I should play the remaster or continue with my current save file on my Steam Deck. As far as 2D, I intend on playing Metroid Fusion next, and then Dread.
