[…] amid the ongoing national debate over what it would take to stem the gun violence plaguing the nation.

If I would be a complete psychopath, who wants nothing more than hurting and killing people, AND get away with it, I would join the police.

And looking at the frequency of how often shit like this happens, I’m probably not the first one with this idea.

You have to differentiate. Calling your friends stuff is one thing, doing so to others is something different. It still is a slur, no matter what it has been years ago, and it will hurt somebody.

But yeah, we use it too from time to time. I am autistic myself and so are most of my friends. But my preferences or my condition doesn’t give me some special right to act like a jackass to others.

I mean, at the very least we can try.

I hate you for this comment.

And some of the studios are doing great! Releasing fantastic games and being shut down shortly after.

Second best?! Really? Now we think participation trophies are fine? Ok whatever.

As for the aftermath of the debate. I like it. I enjoy that orange fuck getting made fun of and the memes are superb. But as expected, he could have yanked his pickle out and jerked off live on TV and his cultists would still defend him. I am 100% sure that this would have been the case. And there still would be people who are undecided!

Yes.

And less people who are desperate to differentiate themselves from others they deem unworthy of their companionship because they…like to go out? Like to socialise with others? Ok that last one is an horrifying, alien concept to me. But come on! We have to be better than this. Please?

Pretty much this. Plus the dozens of cute anime girl communities and anything furry.

I once got flamed into oblivion for pointing that one out in a UFO subreddit. That and saying that filming at night doesn’t magically make the video quality go THAT bad. Then I got banned.

Is that Starbucks cup from season 8 on sale?

Absolutely true. Keep them sharp AND clean.

Knife. You maybe don’t need the ultra deluxe Japanese kitchen knives from the future. But a set of good, sharp knives will be a godsend if you plan to cook a lot.

Hiking gear. Especially the boots have to be of good quality. But breathable clothing (including socks) will also make a big difference when you go on a long trip.

Might be a no-brainer for some, but: meat. If you plan to make some steak, choosing a properly marbled piece of meat is as important as how you cook it. Will be exorbitantly more expensive than the discount meat, tho. But trust me, it will be worth it.

Circumstance, really. Some things just stuck with me.

Went for a walk. Liked it. Walks got longer and longer while the equipment got better and better. Ended up with trekking.

“Hey, this card game looks pretty cool. Can you explain me the rules of it?” The bane of my wallet, Magic the Gathering, entered my life.

After oven pizza #2947294 “This tastes like shit. What am I doing to myself?” Learned to love cooking.

These tweets read horrible. What a punch in the gut. And somehow it gets worse when Bungie lays off an employee days before maternity leave.
