It’s a legal disclaimer so they don’t get sued by Nintendo.
It says, “Nintendo is a registered trademark of Nintendo of America.”
The first video game was the precursor to Pong, called Tennis for Two. It was created on an oscilloscope in Brookhaven National Laboratory. Had they thought to patent it, the US government would’ve held ownership of all video games.

It’s more of a philosophical god than a being with consciousness. He said that god is “the sum of the natural and physical laws of the universe and certainly not an individual entity or creator.” Simplified, everything in existence is god, but individual things are not god on their own. That point is an important distinction between Spinoza’s god and animism.
Perceiving god as more of the framework of existence itself is a very compelling way for me to appreciate the connection of all things, without accepting a bearded man in the sky or encroaching on my scientific understanding.

I did mean seize, not invade. I fixed the comment. Thank you for the correction.
The minute we set foot in a sovereign country with intent to seize, we’ll be sanctioned into the ground by NATO. It will be completely warranted, yet Trump will somehow convince MAGA that they’re ‘attacking’ us economically.
Take it from the former US Ambassador to Russia
Fucking despicable. Absolute sociopaths.
This is entirely performative. You don’t threaten to sanction banks and give investors time to pull their money, and it’s not like Russia cares about investing in our rapidly declining market anyway.
If Trump was ‘so concerned’ about Russia’s attacks on Ukraine, he’d reinstate intelligence.
