From getting accidentally bribed by the Engi in FTL: Faster than Light to building a giant mecha dog for priests in Space Warlord: Organ trading simulator, I always found the presence of otherworldly beings and little green men to uplift any medium.  Even so, I was unimpressed with the invading space […]

For those of you outside of the UK that are unaware, the National Health Service is on its ass. Nurses are underpaid, overworked, and underappreciated by the powers that be.
