  I think the ending was similar for me. That and the quick time event boss at the end was a bit of an anticlimax.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Day 519 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Really? From what I recall, I genuinely felt enmity with my nemeses. It got ugly and vindictive.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Everyone is so close to grasping your unique vision!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re right! Thank you.

  See how that works? In my wildest dreams I get thrown under the bus by the wrong kind of leftist. Are you kidding me? I’ll roll those dice all day and still be more worried about the actual shit happening.

  There is currently no revolution, and we know arguing doesn’t hardly change anybody’s mind. Especially not authoritarians’ minds, right? You can’t convince me to do anything but laugh at tankies and, god forbid, patronise them.

  So in summary you’re right and thanks. Great stuff. Sarcasm, but also solidarity. Take it or kill me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Everyone is so close to grasping your unique vision!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  I gave up arguing with anyone I even slightly agree with. In my wildest dreams I’ll get to bicker with them at a city council meeting about what version of leftism we like best. You go to the revolution with the wild-eyed dreamers (and/or dangerous maniacs) you’ve got, not the ones you want.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you "feel" gender?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m cisgender, and I’ve actually done the necessary introspection to investigate myself and think about how I prefer to express myself in terms of gender, regardless of any artificial limitations. I have gradually integrated that into my sense of self. I’m quite comfortable in my own skin, and what could be more sublime? Though sometimes I think I might prefer to have a second penis.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are there supposed to be other options?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Well obviously I have no choice. I lock myself in the lavatory, and throw a series of tantrums until the pilot comes and personally wipes my arse, while I moan deeper, DEEPER and then when the airline reaches out to notify me that I’m banned, they’ll discover I’ve died on vacation in Thailand.

  It’s the perfect crime

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨uhhh⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t even want it at this point, given their recent work

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm not even gay⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Let’s not pretend we’re breaking new ground here, it’s been that way a while

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Day 519 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I really enjoyed that game, back when it came out. Slightly regret trading away my copy, it’s got replay value.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm not even gay⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s extra funny because the most homophobic people have big “you brought donuts to the office and now I hate you” energy

  A steady hand on the tiller of society? In this economy?

  Holy stolen meme, Blyatman

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why does every commercial depiction of honey involve one of this things? Literally nobody has ever seen one of these in real life⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I grew up in America and I saw them often enough. They must have grown up in Sucksville.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it a bad idea to learn Russian because of everything?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I think the main thing holding me back in my attempts to learn languages is not having anyone to talk to. I’ve tried to learn Spanish, Mandarin, German, French, and Japanese. Never got that far in any of them, but I did best with Spanish and French. The former when I worked with Mexicans who don’t speak much English, and the latter when I vacationed in France and didn’t want to seem like one of those Americans, and studied like crazy ahead of time.

  I can’t think of many Russians I’d want to talk to. Maybe if I was in contact with dissidents I’d be able to put in the effort.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon lives on a budget⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I get that. I do feel that with 15 extra hours per week, I could figure out some kind of side hustle. Even if all I did was sell random crappy art for cheap, it’d keep me saner than if I spent that time on 4chan

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon lives on a budget⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  That makes sense - for a given value of sense. American health care is just evil.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon lives on a budget⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t see what serious then from having a second shitty job? At 25 hours a week they’ve definitely got free time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If your username were a Scrabble word with no bonuses, what would it score?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe just ignore posts you don’t like? This isn’t a big platform yet, people who actually post shouldn’t be discouraged.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Looking for games to watch Let's Plays of: Recommend me something!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I love the aesthetic, having had just such a car in just such a place when I was younger. Watching Pacific Drive makes me so nostalgic.

  I dunno why they were giving you a hard time about it tbh. Another lemming who isn’t socially facile, must be a day ending in Y.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is gold investing a scam?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, but:

  macrotrends.net/…/cpi-purchasing-power-of-the-dol…

  Gold is just another asset, it belongs in any long term portfolio at least to a small degree, and if you take the possibility of market instability seriously, you might consider keeping some actual metal on hand. Though silver is somewhat more practical for that.

  Then you’ve played it more than me. I said my kid is obsessed, not me. I don’t know why everyone is chatting me up about it tbh

  As the father of a Minecraft-obsessed kid, this feels intended to fuel my dislike of Minecraft.

  So did the movie. And all those obnoxious YouTubers.

  Is that it? Is mojang just an elaborate put-on?
