The DNC is only keeping the far-right at bay, instead of actually stomping it dead for good.
  • God forbid our public servants step away from the telethon hotline for a few minutes to actually do any fucking serving to begin with or anything...

    But honestly, we're gonna table that for a minute cuz I feel like whatever the fuck you got goin on here might be more urgent

    Do you smell toast? You should absolutely google a list of stroke symptoms or something and compare notes real quick bro

  • We've barely managed to make a tiny dent
  • Boy, got awful quiet all of a sudden, huh? 🤣😂 Bro is over there desperately trying to convince himself that nah, he could totally live on Venus as long as he only measures the surface temperature as an average over 40 billion years, give or take

  • We've barely managed to make a tiny dent
  • If only you would've been here 10 - 20 years ago to impart upon us savages this great wisdom, oh master... We were but too simple then to think such BOLD, OBVIOUSLY COMPLETELY NOVEL thoughts on our own! Alack, what woe! 🙄

    Not to burst your bubble there, junior, but class (read: socioeconomic) warfare didn't just magically appear within the past couple of decades... Or centuries...

    Do me a favor: Google the phrase "let them eat cake" or "proletariat" or "bourgeoisie" or... actually it might just be quicker for you to look up "world history prior to 2000" and at least skim a bit or something

  • Ok, and...? Do you have a point of some kind here, or are we just going to simplistically cut semantic hairs and call it a day? Cuz if it's gonna be the latter, I don't really even understand the point of commenting to begin with since we're apparently just going to go over vocabulary instead of, say, discussing... oh, I dunno, the actual point?

    (The actual point of the conversation - and today's vocabulary word, coincidentally - is ETHICS. ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ )

  • Insiders say cutting-edge graphics are too costly for AAA games
  • This may be an unpopular opinion, but I am soooo fucking sick to death of everything needing to be 'open world' (for some reason) that I could puke. Sure, some games may benefit from - or hell, even be downright enriched in some manner by - their use, but outside of a few, notable exceptions (Elden Ring and RDR1/2, in particular, spring to mind, for example) when I see a studio touting their "new and improved, expansive, X times bigger, blahblahblah" open world, all I can think is two things:

    1. There will almost certainly be no more than five types (and likely significantly less, tbh) of copy/paste activity I'll be expected to engage in shotgunned haphazardly across the map. The studios that go 'above and beyond' MIGHT attempt to switch things up a bit by slightly altering building or adversary layouts in places, but that's usually a 'best case scenario' kinda thing, and you'll probably be fortunate to end up with some sort of palette swap. How compelling, eh?

    2. I'm going to be subjected to either a veritable fuckton of bland, faceless NPC's with an equally bland line or two of 'dialogue' that is ultimately meaningless or a flimsy pretext to go over there somewhere for... reasons... or a handful or so of them that are inexplicably absolutely VITAL to (or otherwise the impetus behind) everything that is plot - which they have a flimsy pretext for, natch.

    Look, I played WoW back in the day already. If I really desperately wanted to waste dozens of hours of my time delivering imaginary packages to forgettable people, or being sent in search of someone who is the only one who can help stop BBEG/the apocalypse/whatever - and will totally help, but need a favor first... Ugh - then I'd go back to the good ol' WoW treadmill. I left that shit behind because I was sick of it all just feeling like checkmarks someone had to tick off somewhere to appease the C-Suite douchenozzles that don't understand why we can't add in a battlepass. (Those are SOOO hot right now!)

  • This comment leads me to believe that you haven't had much 'up close and personal' experience with cancer... (Not trying to talk down to you in saying that or anything, btw, though you're super fortunate if that's indeed the case.)

    Just for reference: during the early 00's I would get a bill for somewhere around $10k each month for my dad's chemo infusions alone. This went on for at least 2 - 3 years, if memory serves, which - for those who aren't keeping score at home - ended up totalling nearly $500k by the time he died.

    Obviously, not every treatment is created (or priced) equally, but... I think you can probably see what I'm getting at, anyway
