Forgot to share my last few posts, so here's a thread with all that I've published for #Blaugust in the past few days. Yay.

So far, I've published four reviews. You can find the other ones if you scroll down my profile but in this fourth one, I talk about #NovaLands which is a very casual approach to the whole Factorio-esque Automation-type gameplay, and I really adore how deep it still.

Indietail – Nova Lands

Nova Lands is the lovechild of Factorio and Forager – but it doesn’t simply copy and paste but rather innovates and feels like a relaxed entry into that Factorio-esque playstyle.

Apart from that, I celebrated Indiecator reaching 100K total views (in one post) before talking about finally visiting distant family for the first time in five years (in another post), and I even criticized people that share children online in this following post since something that Dan Povenmire did kinda pissed me off, lol: https://indiecator.org/2023/08/16/on-putting-children-online-and-dan-povenmire/
On Putting Children Online – and Dan Povenmire

Don’t put photos or clips of children online, please.

And the most recent posts talk about the whole Linus Tech Tips fiasco where in Part 1, I talk about the ethical concerns that Gamers Nexus has for LTT and their way of doing things, give that a read over here: https://indiecator.org/2023/08/18/the-problem-with-linus-tech-tips-part-1-reviews-ethics-and-billet-labs/
The Problem with Linus Tech Tips – Part 1: Reviews, Ethics, and Billet Labs

LMG and LTT are under fire for a lot of their unethical practices and heavily biased reviews which harm consumers.

...and in Part 2, I talk about the recent allegations of a toxic work environment with lots of sexism, poor working conditions, alleged assault, as well as sexual harassment:

On top of the concerns about LTT’s unethical behaviour, allegations have surfaced about a toxic work environment, abuse of power, sexual harassment and assault at this company.

And apart from that, I haven't posted much yet but there's still a lot of time left for the month. I've published 11 posts in 18 days, so maybe I can get a few more out there if time permits. Obviously, I'll be away for a whole week now starting tomorrow... but I've got a few posts scheduled and after I return, I may be able to still get another post or two out. We'll see!

@Hundstrasse Hey, thanks! Yeah, I wrote a few brief ramblings on that down a while back and forgot to share it on here, haha
