I scrolled down specifically looking for a KSP comment, thank you.

I’m usually that person as well. BG3 was the first game in probably 8 years that hooked me on the story. If I sprinted through it, I would have probably saved like 80% of the time I spent playing it, but I enjoyed it. Maybe I’m simple, to me it felt like the decisions mattered.

There’s an easy answer to bring peace to Ukraine. The Russians can pack up all their shit and just go home.

I was He-Man on Halloween as an 8 year old. My little brother was Orko. It was pretty awesome.

Pack it full of tankies first.

Indeed, Telegram is a hive of criminal content. At the moment, the platform is in the news with the illegal broadcasting of Ligue 1 matches.

This is pretty funny. The first example of crime is people posting dodgy links to football streams? They can’t be serious.

Sorry it took me a week to get back to this, because I really did want to discuss it. The American welfare system is all the things you mentioned and worse. In conservative states, they actively make things harder on poor people to live, and then make it harder for poor people to vote these knobs out of office.

So yeah, I understand that the cruelty is the point. Then the Republican Party marches some Uncle Tom up on the dais to give a speach about some billionaire shitbird that pretends to care about poor people of any color. The fact that someone in a trailer park in the south thinks that Trump cares about them is really sad to me.

The fact that our state elected JD “I fuck couches and can’t order donuts” Vance as an actual senator in this state because Peter Thiel propped him up with an endless supply of money is embarrassing enough, but then this hillbilly elegy moron just keeps opening his mouth and makes Dan Quayle look like a Rhodes scholar by comparison.

It’s all really tiring, and I guess that’s what they’re going for. But I’ll be god damned if I leave this shithole state a worse place than I found it. I’m not going away until we unfuck our gerrymandered state like Michigan managed to unfuck theirs.

No downvote button for Beehaw. But, we have a block button, which due to who we are / aren’t federated with, I think I used twice in the last 10 months or so since I joined.

Truthfully, I haven’t really needed it. It’s pretty chill and people seem to have more reasonable discussions.

Obviously the way to combat this is to organize dozens or more people who just walk around, load up shopping carts, then leave the store without buying anything. They can pay people to put everything back.

Right. And that would stop if people quit participating on fb.

I like being up to date on what my city councillors are doing, events my local cafes host, local art exhibits, etc. Things that have tangible benefits to my community.

I’m going to say this in the nicest way possible- get up off your behind and attend council meetings in person, walk around your neighborhood, do anything except getting all your local news from Facebook. It’s literally there to show you what they want you to see, not what you want to see. Meta as a company is awful, and the algorithms they use to deliver content and advertising to you are a malignant tumor on society. Any information you get from it can easily be ascertained by walking around your neighborhood.

Nah, this is just good people doing good things for other people in need.

I can actually see how you might think it’s a boring dystopia, but this is just how we live where I’m from.
