I will say, as a 30 year old man I had the urge to start playing games because they just looked so good these days. I played a little here and there growing up, but all of my friends were gamers and I just wasn’t interested. When I got interested, I found a lot of fun and joy in it.

I’m still not your typical gamer. I find a few games I really love and I keep playing them over and over—great campaigns with great story telling and great characters and great graphics are so much of it. Since I started playing video games in like 2020, I’ve basically played four games, but two of them I’ve played a bunch of times (red dead redemption II and Cyberpunk).

Now I’m looking at Stalker 2 and I think that might be my next game I want to play to death. Gotta wait to hear how people feel about it though.

Well I think it’s pretty fair to say a lot of people were tuning in to see him get his ass beat. He’s made a career out of being a piece of shit that people want to see get knocked out. So he wins by us all hating him because if we’re hating him we’re paying attention to him.

The second half if most important. It doesn’t produce enough electricity. Renewables are getting cheaper and cheaper and are taking up the mantle to take over majority of power production in some nations. But it is harder to monetize and can be democratized and made pretty easily. It’s like weed. It can be taken away from bigger producers and therefore there is significant push back/lobbying against it.

It’s been reported widely that it’s already happening. They use phone banks to scam, they use AI to scam. If it’s out there, it’s being used to scam.

It’s “the advisory board of religious affairs.” You think that group of people can’t be religious nuts?

Also, it’s 100% about religion because their entire excuse is that it runs contrary to religious law. I mean, to your credit, you’re kinda right because this does have nothing to truly do with religion and is about control. But they’re using religion to do it.

“Using a VPN goes against our religious beliefs?” Come the fuck on.

Yeah this is like people who think they’re “saving money” when they go shopping because there’s a sale. You didn’t save money. You spent it. You just might’ve spent more (depending on the store because a lot of them mark things up just to mark them back to full price)

I hope every time you go to drink water it’s surprisingly a cup of orange juice and every time you go to drink Orange juice you have gum in your mouth.

But Twitter has been bleeding users. And since the election there has been a very public and very large exodus, including a lot of bigger names with tons of followers. So this isn’t about “go where the viewers are.” This is “spend money to stay on the good side of someone who might be even more inordinately powerful with an incredibly powerful and vengeful sidekick.”

I dunno man, most women in my experience have all really appreciated (and as much said out loud) that there was communication. Sure, if it happens without any prompting or guidance, it’s mind blowing because it feels like there’s something naturally special going on, but that’s a pretty rare thing. Sexual compatibility can be tweaked and guided, for sure, but then again there are also people who just don’t have it together.

There are also just toxic people that want perfection with zero work. But that’s not how shit works, even if they can be a vocal group

Nah I’m good

See, sometimes the best scientist needs to ask the simplest questions no one thought to ask.

Here is your Nobel Prize

I can’t tell if you’re joking.

If you’re not, do you mean like baking chocolate, ultra dark chocolate? Or like dark Ghirardelli chocolate chips

A lot of fruit/veg is grown in places they can get away with slave wages and then shipped here because that’s how little labor costs. Less than our already super low paid fruit/veg pickers that are primarily the people who escaped the countries and situations that put them in those even lower slave wage places.

I was just pointing out that you said they did Bernie dirty in 2016 and then said in 2020 Biden knew he could beat Bernie on name rec alone. I was just clarifying what I think was the bigger betrayal.

Everyone says they did Bernie dirty in 2016, but no one ever brings up how in 2020, the establishment dems all dropped out of the race in exchange for cabinet positions to rally around the elder statesman Biden—when Bernie was winning the primaries.

That, in my opinion, is far dirtier and a much bigger “fuck you” to leftists/progressives/humanists than 2016.

Well I voted the Wicconana party. That’s like putting the women from The Craft in office, right?

Yeah, the crip walk and then the “blood” sign with their hands. Both.

Are you all too young to remember this already being a thing middle class white kids were already doing a couple decades ago?

Are you my brother? I had the same experience

I thought it won game of the year as well as a bunch of other awards?
