Absolutely, she isn’t stepping out gracefully, she should be apologizing for wasting all of our time with her stupid antics while she should have been doing her job. Honestly almost all of these senators and representatives are way too full of themselves. With the amount of money in politics now it’s like being a celebrity, it’s fucking bonkers and we need to turn it around because it’s attracting the WORST PEOPLE.

She made million of dollars by acting like a complete asshole, just like on tv. Well, it’s the american dream.

It doesn’t really matter what he says, the rest of the admin’s policies are so devastatingly anti-health, this is once again putting all the blame on the consumer, you just need to take care of yourself and you’ll be healthy, meanwhile they are enabling all the worst polluters who are poisoning our entire environment, it’s a complete fucking sham.

Yeah I blocked it yesterday after I got scolded for suggesting that all the soviet symbolism turns people off and hinders the progress of modern socialist/communist movements whose policies would otherwise be quite popular.

This state is going to hell quick, they just recently banned any vape/juice that is not approved by the FDA, which is very expensive, so of course the only stuff available is the stuff made by big tobacco and the shit by the company that makes stuff for folks in jail which I refuse to support; lots of small companies went under. We’re STILL waiting on legal weed while our neighbors have had it for years, if that hemp ban goes though more businesses will be gone. Smh. This legislature is fully captured by big business, I have faith only in Tony Evers.

Yeah I gotcha, I suppose there’s two types of people in those situations: those who will put down the games and see them as a distraction or waste of time in the face of all the other things they have to do and all the serious/bad things going on in the world, or those who dive full on in and escape the world through gaming. Another perspective, games used to be light and fun, hella challenging, but still fun, you could pick them up and put them down. Nowadays if you stop playing a game for a week or two you almost have to start over, at least that’s how it is for me with my sieve brain. I’m also in the US.

I’d definitely agree with that, I was a much bigger gamer when I was a kid/teen/YA, the only real franchises were Pac Man, Mario and Donkey Kong, so the field was wide open with all sorts of new and innovative games, the sorts of games that are still coming out but just harder to find. I feel like there’s a lot of people just looking a the AAA titles being announced in the presses and then just being underwhelmed when there’s a lot more going on, but as you said there’s a lot more to life as an adult so that can be too much time. On the upside, a lot of those indie games are much shorter so you can find time to play them.

There is just so much choice it’s insane, every day there’s dozens of new games out. There’s some real gems in the indie game space, I feel like gaming is kinda following how music went now. All the major labels are putting out crap, you have to look at the indie labels for good stuff, but that can be a lot of work in itself.

“Graphics are good enough now that literally anything in your imagination can be brought to life”
“Ok, lets make everything look as close to reality as possible :D”

That reminds me, I saw some Pac Man collection the other day, the old 2600/7800/arcade games, it was a few games and some history stuff, it was 17 GIGABYTES, FOR PACMAN.

Is there any value to make 2 million Hitler documentaries? No, but they do it anyways.

Maybe you could try putting some more money into great writers and storytellers instead of GRAPHICS GRAPHICS GRAPHICS, but no.

Inifnite potential? Like NFTs? Subscriptions? I suppose… I’m beyond not interested in buying digital things I don’t even have the rights to, but I seem to be in the minority.

Sure, but it will have to change eventually, we can’t keep pumping out more and more throwaway shit year after year, there will be a critical mass, or maybe we just die buried in our own garbage.

Can we switch back to the need based economy instead of the greed based economy?

Amazing, Brazil has no problem locking up their POS ex President for a coup, but I guess we can’t fucking do that here.

I’m a musician, so, it’s all fucking garbage. But people don’t care how their music is made just like they don’t care what’s in hot dogs, so enjoy your soul less shit music.

The future fucking sucks.

Oh one of my favorite movies is coming true, too bad it’s The Day After Tomorrow. Is all that talk about the Democrats having weather control machines just getting ahead of this?
