The Guardian posted an article saying that we need a global lockdown every 2 years to curb carbon emissions.

Glad they have their priorities straightened out.

When did cancel culture cancel anyone for antisemitism? That's so 1950s, it isn't in like with "contemporary social norms"...

Just a random thought- I feel like it's only a matter of time before TPG changes their name to something more gender-neutral to keep up with the wokeness. The name is incredibly un-2021.

Leave the @ off next time, please (or is doing that considered impolite on DDF?).

Maybe they should update Lakewoodopoly while they’re at it,
but the truth is, I’d be scared to see the 2021 version

Randomex · « **Reply #656 on:** March 20, 2021, 11:06:22 PM »

Licensed versions of Monopoly are mostly made by USAopoly, which has a deal with Hasbro, not Hasbro themselves.
Lakewoodopoly was not made by them (copyright law in the US very rarely applies to game designs).

Oakland's project is significant because it is one of the largest efforts in the U.S. so far, targeting up to 600 families. And it is the first program to limit participation strictly to Black, Indigenous and people of color communities.

The reason: White households in Oakland on average make about three times as much annually than black households, according to the Oakland Equity Index. It's also a nod to the legacy of the Black Panther Party, the political movement that was founded in Oakland in the 1960s.
