I understand why they’re going that way but Subnautica is such a quintessential single player experience. I hope they leave that experience the main focus.

What’s the charge? Touching a succulent… well…

Man that stupid AI “photo” at the top is really distracting.

You don’t have to be tolerant to the intolerant but in the end you have to get people on your side not continually drive them away. I’m really frickin tired of the endless left-wing purity tests. You don’t agree on subsection 13 paragraph 5 of the manifesto? You’re out!

The other day I was listening to Jon Stewart and the topic of the “privilege” of the white working poor came up. You can argue that even they have privilege over minorities, sure, but I bet that isn’t how it feels to them. There was some acknowledgement that they can also have hard lives but in the end the conclusion, albeit tongue-in-cheek, was “they just have to stop being so fragile.”

Good luck with that messaging. We ridicule and belittle them, have been for decades, and then wonder why they turn to someone who promises to care for them (even if he’s obviously lying)

They don’t get pronouns? They must be evil or stupid or both. Look at the dumb, ignorant rednecks. And of course the (social-)media loves it, hell play up both sides of “who said the worst thing this week” and watch the clicks soar.

And we wonder why they fall for the “anti-woke” rhetoric.

Low wage workers for corporations. Soaring cancer rates bring in record profits for insurance companies and for-profit hospitals. And the folks that complain can go to for profit prison. It’s win-win-win-win. Trump was right, I don’t know if we can stand this much winning.

Not to the US? Time for another tariff on India. That will surely fix everything.

I’ve had a Sony XZ2C for… 5+ years now? I’m not especially careful with it either. I mean I don’t throw it in with my keys etc. but otherwise it fell a few times and I’m sure I’ve put it down screen-first on occasion. Never used a protector, not a scratch on the screen. The outside however doesn’t look great despite being (or maybe due to being?) in a protective case.

Lucky for you. The folks I know all grew up with various forms of insecurities, fitting in, doing well at school, whatever it was. But happy to hear you’re not one of them.

This is one of those rare all-natural “you can’t hear a picture” moments

Don’t worry, we’re going to stop measuring air quality soon, problem solved.

Man I’ll tell you what though being old rocks. Ok physically maybe not so much but Jesus life gets easier once you drop all the bullshit you got worked up about when you were young. I mean the world being on fire isn’t great but on a personal level I’m not insecure or worried about much of anything any more. Straight blissing.

Yeah but it’s easy, just take the sine of regular time and you’re set.

The consumer carbon tax was the most minor of minor problems in the consumer economy but Poliviere paints it as the end of civilization as we know it. Now he’s shifted to industrial carbon tax (which mainstream economists all agree don’t hurt the consumer much if at all) and other taxes that he wants to “axe” again for being the end of civilization as we know it. None of which by the way he advocated against until recently. He’s so painfully obviously in the pocked of big oil.

Is there a lot of drama between mobile OS developers? I’m not really in those circles, I had no idea.

Well that’s certainly a lot more nuanced. It’s not unreasonable to oppose Hamas. In the current conflict obviously the bigger “bad guy” is obviously Israel. But for there to be a stable peace in the region Bernie is absolutely right, a two state solution (however unlikely that looks now) would have been the only solution, with peace enforced by the more powerful neighbors and neither Hamas nor the current genocidal Israeli government in charge of their states. Hell in a functioning world, the whole of Israel would be disarmed and become a UN protectorate or something.

That’s right, those damn nazis that want to freely criticize the president. That oppose mass deportations and insist on treasonous ideas like “due process” and “habeas corpus” That think the constitution is more important that our great leader’s commands. Completely reprehensible.

Conversely, shawarma and garlic sauce have no place on fries.

The number of leftists posting these kids of cool kid memes is significantly higher than the ones that are actual preppers/gun nuts. But if you need a cutting protest folk song, we’re your guys.
