I went to a Target on black friday once and I’ll never do it again. I always thought the shit about screaming matches and physical fights were just anomalies that got blown out of proportion by the media. I changed my mind after watching adults snatch popular toys from each others hands and one guy getting a haymaker to the side of his head for trying to take a flat-screen out of another dude’s cart and put it in his.

It’s been fun watching Elon go from space Jesus to shorthand for any billionaire vanity project that will amount to nothing.

This is one of those situations where “both sides are bad” actually holds weight.

Yes, Linux communities are full of insufferable shitheads who have way too much emotional investment in what is essentially a tool. I onced looked up some information on Youtube about flatpacks to educated myself and ended up watching some moron have a 20 minute meltdown about how they’re “soy and unmanly”. As a Linux user, that is fucking embarassing.

Hardline Windows users are shitheads in their own right, too. If something isn’t handed to them or requires effort beyond dragging and droppping files, it’s proper shit and you’re just an out-of-touch nerd for trying to mainstream this esoteric nonsense. It’s a thought-terminating cliche about Linux and its users that’s about 25 years out of date. I don’t know shit about the terminal, BASH, or what the fuck a GRUB is but I’ve been using Linux Mint for two years now with zero issues. Yes, even when running games.

Good question. It was the late 90s so it wasn’t like we were living in Jim Crow but there was no where near the same amount of recognition of the difficulties people of color face like we see now. He never intentionally racist. On the contrary, I do remember him spending a night in the drunk tank after got into a parking lot brawl between him and Puerto Rican friends and some assholes who called them a bunch of slurs.

I once had to explain to my father why calling Asian sport bikes “rice rockets” is racist. He didn’t get it and went on to talk about how he got “gyped” by a guy trying to sell him one when he was in his 30s.

I can only speak from personal experience, but my local Target has heavily downsized it’s Xbox section. Nintendo and Sony get their own aisles while Microsoft is basically an end cap.

I haven’t bought an EA game since Mass Effect 3 so this a moot point for me.

Excessive moaning. Male or female. They sound like they’re having a tough shit, not sex.

“Sexy” talk that amounts to verbal abuse.

The popularity of the incest shit is weird and seems indicative of a larger issue in our society.

Degradation being the rule and not a niche.

When guys rent open the actresses’ asshole like they’re looking for their car keys in there.

“Wayne Brady makes Bryant Gumbel look like Malcolm X.” - Paul Mooney.

Israel is a terrorist state.

Imagine if we did “vibe city infrastructure”. Just throw up a fucking suspension bridge and we’ll hire some temps to come in later to find the bad welds and missing cables.

Good news, everyone! EA are still going to be profiteering shitbags who nickle and dime customers with season passes and loot boxes for content that already exists in the code.

The religious skirting around the doctrines of their faith for personal gain is a feature, not a bug.

I haven’t bought an EA game since Mass Effect 3. This is just one more reason to never give them my money.

No. You can not-have trans rights without fascism. Otherwise, 100% of the earth has been fascist for the entire history of humanity.

This you, punchy?

You know, I’m really fucking tired of people like who think calling their ignorant and asinine beliefs “an opinion” gives them immunity from criticism or retaliation.

Southwest New Hampshire, USA

Local: Not bad. Mostly moderate liberals who do work to improve to the conditions in the city. Fencesit too much for their own good sometimes when it comes to taking a stand on something.

State: Fucking awful. Completely full of MAGA dipshits passing anti-trans laws and doing nothing but gutting budgets (a city nearby me had to take out a private loan to fund their school system this year) and ignoring the huge problems we have (opiate abuse, housing, and mental healthcare).

Federal:

No. I was the weird gutter-goth kid who was either terrifying or called the f-slur depending on who you asked. I had friends but it was a small circle of people who shared my interests. I still talk to most of them 20+ years later.

Fucking monstrous.

Maliketh. First phase I can handle but his second phase can eat my whole ass. I stopped playing after 40 or so attempts. I like a challenge. I’ve beaten every Soulsborne game aside Demon and Sekiro. But there is a point where my frustration overrides the fun I’m having.
