You’re talking toxic masculinity, he’s talking about these children being inundated with propaganda via social media. Very few middle and high school students watched Fox news in the 00’s whereas now it’s being algorithmically jammed down their throats.

Social media is going to cause the fall of the USA and it’s so fucking sad to watch. Social media needs to be scheduled as/like a drug.

For 99% of owners a panel van would be the better option, but their masculinity is tied to other people’s perception of them, so they pay the small dick tax.

I rent a truck for the afternoon on the rare occasion I need one

It was really sad reading a post on Reddit yesterday where they were applauding the Republicans for moving $2 billion in benefits for veteran housing… How did they forget about the $22 billion that just got cut for veteran medical benefits?

I’m constantly reminded that Socrates was correct and that democracy has too many unqualified and uninformed voters and will give rise to demagogues.

Well how the fuck do we get this ball rolling? I’m ready and it feels like a load of others are ready to fix this too.

Yup, like almost every modern amenity is from socialism. All capitalism has done for me lately is… Umm… What the fuck has capitalism done for me lately?

Yup, that golden age when we came back from the depression was because of socialist policies FDR put in place and the rich immediately began to vilify (note these rich clowns caused the depression).

Socialism isn’t a boogyman, it’s the reason anything is working at all.

There’s just more and more of this lately. We give money to the govt, they fork it over to some company, they use money to make a product I have to pay for, again.

Sorry that’s just fucking dumb. Don’t bail companies out or give huge grants, make them compete for contracts and have the people own a portion to reduce cost to the US consumer. It’s socialism, sure. But at least we’d come out ahead instead of getting hosed again.

I installed PPSSPP on my phone and paired a switch joycon. Played through a few really good games that way when my kid required being held to sleep. I’d imagine you could pair one to your computer and find some games that you’d like.

This is why PC is and always will be better than a traditional console. “Oh the dev won’t do this, good thing the modding scene already has a workaround.”

This is why we need an actual progressive party instead of just two parties.

When it dropped my folks were on a trip and I was staying with my grandma. Rolled into circuit city to get a copy and then dick behind the counter told me I wasn’t old enough (12) to play the game. My grandma had my back though and told him off. Good times.

Nah, peak was 2005-6 when it was just college students. You could suddenly find the best parties like it was nothing, homework answers were exchanged openly, neither your parents or siblings could access and see what was going on. Farmville style games came about in 2009, which is when the decline became apparent to me.

The car definitely had some weird panel alignment after the crash, but that could’ve just been Tesla’s legendary build quality.

The GOP cosplay as patriots to confuse small minded fools that striving for a better life is un-American. As if our founding fathers weren’t looking for a better life.

You’re looking at the map upside down.

As a liberal male from CA; she’s just not likeable. She gives off the energy of that high strung person everyone’s trying to avoid talking to at the cookout.

Then again Donald Trump gives off that creepy conspiracy theorist pedo vibe that you’d also avoid and the right loves him.

Exactly what I was thinking. While it’s a great headline the article is nonsense. What about early access? Did those players play any new games? How much time was spent afk? Were those old games new purchases? This is a cherry picked statistic and almost certainly doesn’t paint a clear picture or tell any story except “live service games work”

Oh you mean similarly to what Clinton did? The conservatives seriously won’t shut up that Clinton cut a lot of government jobs. They conveniently forget Clinton had the departments look at their own staff so they could make cuts intelligently, y’know instead of firing the people with the nuclear launch codes…

I take the light rail into work from the suburbs of Seattle into downtown. Trains run every 7-8 minutes. They’re expanding it in all directions now. Only downside is that a lot of homeless ride the train because it’s cold as heck on the streets. That’s a societal problem though, not an issue with the train.

Most people don’t hate BMW’s or their drivers, it’s a joke that they’re all stuck up a-holes. There’s similar jokes for people driving Tesla’s being oblivious (fascists too now lol), Nissan Altima drivers being incredibly reckless, Prius’ for always going 15 under the limit in the passing lane, etc.

I saw an e46 323 for $2000 yesterday, it’s also a cheap option here.

I’m with you that my favorite changes with my mood but probably final fantasy tactics. Story is great, graphics have aged like wine, great variation in play styles, the death cries of my enemies will always play like music to me.
