- Comment on How is the Stock Market keeping it's value after *points to everything*? 1 day ago:
Because the stock market isn’t a measure of how well a country is operating. On the contrary, deregulation allows companies to boost profit via harmful means. Rich people got it good under Trump/Republicans and therefore the stock market thrives.

I’ll take “things actual vegans never say” for $500!
- Comment on Amazon Artificially Discounting Items $0.01 Below the Free Shipping Limit 3 weeks ago:
Generally, I believe the convenience of cheap shit delivered to your door comes at the invisible cost of exploitative labor practices and/or excessive consumerism by the means of low quality crap that will need to be replaced regularly or through “buy more and save” deals. If you want to avoid supporting that, you’re probably going to have to spend a few extra bucks buying from a smaller business or buying secondhand.
Convenience isn’t free and if we want to reduce our dependence on harmful institutions we’re going to have to make some sacrifices.

Easy fix, don’t buy from Amazon.
- Comment on Feelin free 3 weeks ago:
Even worse, many people sincerely believe “low-skill” labor to be valued at less than the cost of a decent livelihood.

- Comment on Does the US really have no instruments in case a newly elected president immediatelly and openly exposes he's a nazi? 4 weeks ago:
Our government leans heavily on decorum and good faith. Trump’s success has been due to his refusal to adhere to decorum and good faith. Our system doesn’t know how to handle that other than shaming and shaking fists so Trump gets free reign to do whatever he wants.

I can accept the exterior but the interior of that car is what gives me anxiety
- Comment on what was the last game you played in 2024? 1 month ago:
That’s one of my all time favorites. The combat is just so polished and satisfying and the graphics are incredibly beautiful.
- Comment on what was the last game you played in 2024? 1 month ago:
I just started getting into Deadlock and that was the last game I played in 2024. However, I only played for about an hour. Before that, in the same afternoon I played Foxhole for about four hours and Balatro for two.
Vacation ends the moment I put my phone down and go to sleep… It was a good time.

Assuming I could force somebody to poop on command with little effort beyond sheer willpower, I would absolutely take it upon myself to dish out petty justice with that power.
I see you being rude to people working in a service job? You get poopy pants.
I see you playing music on your phone or otherwise being obnoxious on the bus or some other public space? You get poopy pants.
Are you driving like an asshole? Following too closely? Cutting people off? Honking the moment the light turns green? Words can’t express the satisfaction I will feel in knowing that you’re now sitting in your car with the poopiest of pants my power could possibly muster.
- Comment on Saint Luigi 1 month ago:
Oh yeah I see it too! Between this and the other things, they all seem to have a slight over-exaggeration of what we’d expect. Kinda interesting.
- Comment on Saint Luigi 1 month ago:
Oh good catch! That’s a bit wonky. Through his shoulders do turn that way so I can kinda see what the AI was “thinking”.
- Comment on Saint Luigi 1 month ago:
This animation is incredible. The best AI generated animation I think I’ve seen. The only weird thing I can detect is the excessive flopping of his sleeve. But to make up for it is the way his index finger is slightly bent because you can’t tuck the rest of your fingers all the way in without doing so. Crazy stuff.
- Comment on What they are referring to is in the lower left corner. Bet you intially missed it and had evil thoughts 1 month ago:
I suspect the kind of people who eat Snickers when they’re hungry are the same kind of people who drink Coke as their morning pick-me-up.
- Comment on Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet Announcement Trailer 2 months ago:
I’ve seen so many terrible takes already. I made the mistake of looking at a Reddit thread on the announcement. They’re not even trying to be subtle. “Female characters are supposed to be pretty! Nobody wants to play as an ugly bald bitch who looks like a man!”. I’d consider myself a seasoned internet veteran and even still it’s shocking to me.

I still wouldn’t trust either handle. People are assholes.
- Comment on Should we create a new political party in the US, specifically for shitting on the rich? 2 months ago:
Will they though? Biden was pitching a public option to compete with the other MFA candidates in 2020. He hasn’t uttered a single word about it since he was nominated.

Lol this is great and frankly hard to argue with. I was inspired to do my own impression of Brazil as an American who’s never been to Brazil.
- Comment on Im flyinf to the USA from england 3 months ago:
Assuming this isn’t satire… It really depends on where you’re going. Assuming you’ll be in a big city, I’d say it’s pretty comparable to London. Don’t go walking along vacant streets at night, or during the day if the area gives you bad vibes. Avoid confrontation with anyone looking to start some shit. In big crowds I like to keep my wallet and phone in a front or otherwise harder-to-access pocket.
All that being said, most tourist areas are quite safe.
