It's kind of cool to think, "Hey, this passage sounds familiar", only to realise it is from the one Said book you translated into Brazilian Portuguese for @editoraunesp over a decade ago.
Edward Said briefly recounting how his visit to South Africa and discussion w/ Mandela helped him better understand the place of the Palestinian struggle within broader decolonisation movements. In particular, the way Palestinians supported anticolonial struggled across the world

Disclaimer: I haven't played Rogue Trader and I'm not very familiar with 40K. I'm very sympathetic to exploring the different ways games can reward you or fail to, and to what effect, but I'm going to try to unpick the points that stood out to me here. 🧵
a huge problem that a lot of RPGs have is that doing the right thing is 'free', or even explicitly rewards you. rogue trader does let you try to do right, at a cost if incurring costs from doing the right thing stops you, you aren't actually as good a person as you thought

... and as crushed by capitalism as so many of us feel, I'm not really interested in a world view that says not only that this is shit, but that there is no conceivable alternative to it being shit. I've seen people supporting one another and rekindling their spirits...

... in the direst of situations, and if all I could say about that is that not being a fascist will bring you no joy, no meaning, only overwhelming misery, then I'd likely just opt out of life.

Just wanted to say it's been a pleasure working so closely with the PT-BR RS community for nearly 10 years. You will all be missed, but I'll try to keep in touch here – and who knows? I might even talk about my own projects now that I'm no longer at Jagex. Thank you all again💜

Agora um pouquinho mais em português: muito obrigado a todos pela paciência e amizade. O mais legal destes quase 10 anos, de ter traduzido mais de 1,8 milhões de palavras do RS sozinho (fora as notícias, legendas, outros jogos e tal), foi saber que estava fazendo isso para vocês.
