The city was lined with Giga Factories, and since air quality couldn’t be controlled with an app of some kind, no laws stopped them from sending a cascad-ing cloud of industrial refuse down onto the city. It was all part of the Techno King’s philosophy of hardcore work thought…
You recently left two different one-star reviews on Peace Keepr regarding badge num-bers 9966 and 7654. Have you consid-ered that you were wrong in this situation and should apologize to the brave men and women who serve your community?
Two buttons were under the message.
Yes or no. I clicked no.
Your social score has been reduced by fifty points for holding radical political views. Your information has been forwarded to the extremist monitoring app, Prevent.
I cursed to myself. This is why I didn’t leave the apartment if I could help it. As soon as those thoughts crossed my mind, a Flux Taxi plummeted out of the sky and crashed into a supermarket.

Probably worth doing if you can afford it

I remember when I first started working full time. The exhaustion is real. It doesn’t ever really go away but you will eventually learn to live with it.
- Comment on I lost 6 to 10 years of my retirement last week! 1 month ago:
6 to 10 years? What kind of risk were they taking on? I’ve lost about 3 months worth.

Nobody born after 1985 has ever experienced ‘average temperatures’.

This was a news article from 2015. Since then nearly every year has set a record for being the warmest ever recorded.
We’ve had a decade of pumping more money into the money machine while our ecology falls apart around us.

the deaths appear to be more the result of the vehicle fire, as opposed to drugs, or injuries the victims sustained in the crash. And troublingly, that testimony also showed the Cybertruck’s doors could not be opened in the aftermath of the crash, preventing Riordan from pulling the other three victims from the flaming wreckage.
- Comment on Pineapple was never the problem 2 months ago:
A place near me does this. It’s the worst. The spaghetti is chewy because it’s dehydrated from being grilled.

To me it looks more teal blue than teal green.
- Comment on A monolithic and ruthless conspiracy: What was John F. Kennedy referring to? 2 months ago:
I don’t find it odd. Even with Vatican II in 1962-65 transforming the role of the pope to a more ecumenical approach, the role is still one of a world leader. It’s similar to how those same politicians consult with the Dalai Lama. There’s realpolitik reasons for political world leaders to be seen consulting them as ‘world leaders’ that have nothing to do with the actual religions.
- Comment on A monolithic and ruthless conspiracy: What was John F. Kennedy referring to? 2 months ago:
Nah man sorry. You’re just wrong in this case. You’re missing the forest for the trees.
- Comment on A monolithic and ruthless conspiracy: What was John F. Kennedy referring to? 2 months ago:
You’re not going to like this answer but he didn’t say Soviet Union because he didn’t need to. Everybody understood that ‘communism’ was ‘THE Global Conspiracy’ ever since McCarthyism took of.
Check out A conspiracy so immense : the world of Joe McCarthy by David Oshinsky to learn a little of what the attitude of the time was like.

He was talking about the Soviet Union. Don’t they teach this very basic shit in school?
- Comment on [TerakJK] Avowed vs The Outer Worlds - Obsidian's previous game - Attention to detail. 2 months ago:
It’s interesting to me how divisive reactions seem to be on Avowed, some people loving the hell out of it and some being very lukewarm. It’s not even falling along the usual IGN reviewer love vs indie reviewer scepticism divide like Starfield or Veilguard. I wonder what’s driving the difference?
- Comment on is it wrong/selfish to cut contact with my trump-supporting father? 2 months ago:
It sounds like your life will be immeasurably improved by cutting him off. But it’s such an intense, personal decision that I’m not sure any internet stranger could honestly say one way or the other.
- Comment on Do most people still use computers, or do people only use a smartphone as their main/only device? 2 months ago:
Seems like smartphones are generally used more often than PCs among younger cohorts compared to older. In Britain at least.

Going from decline to fall. To be fair it took Rome 200 years or so I’m sure the US will limp on for a while yet. But it won’t ever be what it was again.

- Comment on Average Australian place names 3 months ago:
I don’t understand who people they’re dunking on when they mock distinctive indigenous words.
Ballaarat means meeting place, Djilang / Geelong means tongue of land as in the edge of the bay, Wirribi / Werribee means spine, as in the river being the spine of the land. Garidwerd means mountain range created by Bunjil. Wahroonga means home.
All these words have true meanings that connect to the land.
