Even if you’re right, you don’t need to be such a smug prick about it. They’re literally just asking a question.

I’ve come to prefer waiting. When a new game comes out, what I tend to see from the scene is the initial release, then a few updates/patches, a lull where updates/patches are missed (unless it’s pretty popular), and eventually a rerelease with the now final updated version.
Waiting for the last means no figuring out why cracks don’t work, wrestling with weird performance issues, etc.
This is all assuming that most of this isn’t political theater, and I’m really starting to wonder how much of United States politics is actually genuine. So often the Democrats have had the opportunity to do something drastic, if less drastic then that frequently done by Republicans, to counteract the erosion of personal freedom and democracy. Yet they always seem to find a reason not to, typically with the justification that they don’t want to push the envelope like the Republicans do, despite the fact the Republicans will continue to push the envelope to their benefit when back in power.
I’m starting to think a lot of this is bullshit.
This is what happens when politics becomes team sports in a country where critical thinking is discouraged. Every time I see someone post “vote blue no matter who”, I become just a little bit stupider.
I get it. The United States has two political parties that have politics locked down. If you don’t vote for the blue team, the red team wins the championship and gets the trophy er, presidency. Red team is a bunch of fascists, blue team is fascist adjacent. Red team promises to hurt the right people and further institute a surveillance state, blue team promises to fight the red team, maybe provide better policies (the red team will just undo in four years), and further institute a surveillance state. Both will happily kill little brown kids to further enrich old white men.
What is discouraging is the number of people who freak out when someone points out both teams suck. The “get out of here with your both sides bullshit”. No, you just live in a shite country with terrible politicians. Both sides suck. If that upsets you so much that you can’t even consider it, you suck too.
It’s thicc.
I also hate it when I find shitposts in my shitpost community.

Reading this comment has made me measurably stupider.
I also recently saw my first in person. It is bigger than I expected and looks really stupid.
Definitely, but it’s mostly twenty to thirty somethings, some forties. My wife and I are nearly in our fifties and occasionally make a fake account to whatever service is big that year/decade to see what we’ve been missing. We don’t feel like we’re missing much.
A buddy of ours of similar age is a widower and, after many years, has decided to try dating again. He’s meeting women but has variable results. I can’t say he’s having better or worse dates than when meeting people in person, but he’s having a lot more of all the dates, so it’s like they’re more concentrated.
“If it was peaceful, why did the police show up?”
“If you were innocent, then why were you arrested?”
Bad arguments are bad.
LOL
At you, not with you, so everyone is clear.
That’s my take. I use a CBD vape or oil for arthritis pain and it noticably makes a difference. The oil takes awhile to kick in but it makes me get pretty goofy at higher doses, even without THC in it.
My buddy and I were just talking about this. Juggalos get a lot of shit, but my experience is that they are one of the most accepting groups around. It doesn’t matter if you’re a PhD or are stealing copper out of abandoned houses, if you show up with some clown makeup and fire poi, juggalos are down to clown.
Agreed, it’s varying levels of culture war bullshit intended to keep the working class from unifying. The only thing that prevents it is awareness.
I did, but your mom stole it after I fucked her.
Don’t be bitter. Be better!
You’ve got to be trolling. No one, I mean NO ONE is this stupid.
I like to think that a lot of the more “Reddity” Reddit refugees from .world, those who tend toward pearl clutching theatrics like these posts, will eventually head back to Reddit. Maybe they’ll find their perfect alternative, where there are no dev or admin issues and everyone has a comforting (for them) center-left to center-right, Western ideology driven political stance that never challenges their preconceptions.
See, I like that because I’m shit at action games.
