- Comment on Should I keep the Zelda OLED for the forseeable future? 1 day ago:
You directly implied holding onto something for its potential investment valuation at a later date. It’s almost certain that a mutual fund investment will be worth more in 10 years, whereas a specialty console is a gamble whether it’ll increase in value and how much, and whether it needs to b mint condition.
Therefore if the goal is future value, as you implied with the Majora’s mask example and setting sentimental value to the side, investing in a mutual fund is the more logical choice. Not apples and oranges when broken down to merely “which option is likely to be worth more.”

$199.99 in February 2015. Stuffing that in an S&P 500 indexed mutual fund would be worth over $700 today without even reinvesting dividends. And that’s more reliable than “maybe this console will be resellable at a much higher amount.” Also the investments are easier to sell. I’m not usually convinced by the future value arguments.

Okay, if you count all super bowls, then count every instance of fourth of July occurring.
Also, the USA has had many queens: Queen Latifah, Aretha Franklin, Madonna, Beyoncé, Dolly Parton, Mary J Blige, Mariah Carey, Oprah Winfrey, RuPaul, Carol Burnett, Harriet Tubman, Dolley Madison, Clara Barton, Mary Baker Eddy, Florence Wald, Madam C.J. Walker, Sacagawea, Sybil Ludington, Estée Lauder, Elizabeth Ardon, Margaret Rudkin, Ruth Wakefield, Martha Stewart.
There’s so many fucking Queens of everything in US history.
- Comment on Is the 3DS worth purchasing despite it being "obsolete" today? 2 days ago:
The DS is resurging because there’s no mainstream handhelds now, the DS has a large library and was the most recent successful handheld.

Did you personally cause the macro-level problems you likely are feeling shame for?
I doubt it. No need to feel shame.
To me, it’s similar to feeling proud. Feeling pride in country is weird and just leads to nationalism, which is horrible. I never feel shame about shit I literally cannot control or affect.

So horrible.
- Comment on People who have legally changed their first or last names (marriage not included), what is the reason you changed it? 5 months ago:
I haven’t, but for a long time I considered changing the last name to completely disconnect from my childhood family, who I took far to long to learn had me programmed and did not treat me, or really anyone, well. I’ve been no contact for a long time and it has helped. I no longer feel like who I am is wrong, nor do I pike on the regrets for trying.
I still occasionally think of changing the name.

- Comment on I am an American. I used to be proud of my country. Now it feels like a turd circling the drain. Is there anything going on behind the scene that America is actually doing good in? 7 months ago:
Being proud of countries or nationalities is 8nherently toxic and problematic. I never understood it.
