“What happened to Ciri?” The video game “trope” of: Boss kicks your ass 16 ways from Sunday, joins your team and becomes a wet rag that premature babies could flick away with no effort.

I get it, can’t really have a growth experience if you start off as OP I guess lol

That face…

“I’m a fucking child, why am I here saying shit you irresponsible fuckers should already know!?”

Hopefully musk gets too close to Putin and finds himself “accidentally” falling out of a window

Well since we’re sharing firm beliefs, I firmly believe if your intent is to inform someone then insulting the person you’re supposedly informing is the worst way to go about it. People just get defensive and will attempt to reject information more readily when that is done.

“Divorce is considered an anti-socialist act”

I don’t even understand what this means.

I feel like it’s like saying “eating pineapple pizza is generally an anti-banking act.”

…what?

And if the university of Chicago is that “Chicago school of economics” then this kid is going to come out the other end repesting close to what you said, but as a positive. :(

It’s actually a reference to Brick House, the lyrics:

"Ow, she’s a brick house

She’s mighty-mighty, just lettin’ it all hang out. She’s a brick house. That lady’s stacked and that’s a fact. Ain’t holding nothing back"

Referring to the demeanor of Dr.House and how he lets it all hang out, and holds nothing back.

:P

“I actually think the purpose of a Bitcoin reserve is to temporarily increase the price so tech-bros (re: Elon) can sell at a massive profit. Then buy back at a much lower price. It’s just a way to indirectly transfer federal dollars into administration pockets.”

This is the way. It’s the only reason they’d do it.

I seriously doubt BRICS has anything to do with Bitcoin, but the US is absolutely concerned about losing the status of world currency. It’s literally how we survive while running a massive deficit. When the rest of the world finds a way to do business without the US getting its cut we’re going to be in deep shit.

Holy crap that’s quite the list! Amazing picture!!

I just point my seestar s50 at something and go “I am being astrophotograpamiser now!”

:P

I appreciate that. I just see it as the typical “people love to attack others online” and I have no desire to try to insult people even if they’re telling me liking chocolate over vanilla is wrong and I’m an asshole for it lol only I know myself, and I know there’s no hatred or misogyny behind my preferences.

Pretty much, yeah. Part of it is the whole “power fantasy” thing. I get, as others said, that it’s a fantasy world so how could you expect to be immersed with mutants and whatever, but that’s not the point. I don’t expect it to be a VR experience where I can’t even tell I’m not in the real world, and as others assumed no for fucks sake it has nothing to do with hating women. That’s absurd. It’s just a personal preference thing. I’m not going to write to the devs bitching or make some stupid “woke game” post, I just probably won’t play it.

Is it really like that for you? Does the same thing happen with books, movies, TV? Should they have an “option”?

It is like that for me and they don’t need to have that option, that’s unrealistic to expect. You can’t choose anything in a book or movie. It just becomes something that “isn’t for me” which is fine. Not everything has to be my taste. I was simply explaining why it had nothing to do with hating ciri for some people.

For me it’s not that I hate ciri at all. I completely understand women’s complaint that most games have a male protagonist and they can’t relate to that. I feel the same way, I like to feel at least somewhat immersed and I can never really get that with a female protagonist. It’s not like I don’t try either, I just never end up getting into the games I have tried that are like this.

I know it’s hard when the story is based on an individual, but I just wish more games had an option so everyone could play who they want to. I don’t hate them for this choice, it will just be another game that “isn’t for me” in the same way a hyper competitive PVP game “isn’t for me” which is fine.

Jesus fucking Christ… So not only are they parasites, but they’re the kind of parasites that kill the host and occupy the body for their own purpose…

To call them scum feels way too tepid.

Absolutely, not arguing about any of that just wanted to point out where I thought the focus was on that one part.

moreover the idea that Marxists have never achieved change ignores the existence of the USSR, Cuba, PRC, Vietnam, Laos, and so forth

I think they meant that “we” are the target of the meme as the virgin Marxists not successful revolutions of the past.

The “best” part, UHC is the largest of the healthcare deniers making massive profits and bad luck Brian got paid the least of all the CEOs of the top 10 healthcare deniers.

Getting screwed by the company that screws the most people. Poetic.

🤮

It’s funny because in my initial writing of my comment I actually wrote pesos instead of yen but I wasn’t sure how close the peso was to the dollar so I went with yen lol
