Jesus, that sounds like hell.

I'm just hoping for a new Riddick game. Escape from Butcher Bay was amazing.
- Comment on Steam is a ticking time bomb 6 months ago:
Steam is a ticking time bomb but mostly for the reason that you don't own the games you purchase there and you can't back them up (mostly) so when Steam decides to ban your account or just closes down, you lose all of your games forever.
More people should push for DRM-free games with offline installers, like GOG and Itch offer.

One reason is the more you're forced to work, the less energy, and, more importantly, time you have for preparing healthy meals. Therefore you're more likely to go with preprocessed, prepackaged meals or straight fast food which will make you fat fast.
I've got a relatively cushy job and cook my own, relatively healthy meals but even I find myself going for that store-bought pizza when I have a particularly busy week.
Moreover, unhealthy, preprocessed meals are basically drugs in terms of the dopamine hit, so you're more likely to go for them if your life sucks and you're sad about it.
Add to that the lack of education on healthy eating, which I'd bet is easier to come by when you're at least middle class and bam, you're a fat poor person.

- Comment on Zachary Levi Says ‘Shazam! Fury of the Gods’ Critics Rating Was “Oddly and Perplexingly Low” 1 year ago:
You can visit a page from time to time to get 'better insight into how they formed their opinions'. If you're actively following it, that means you want to see everything they have to say, as soon as they say it (and you're boosting their follower count), and that's no longer defensible.
Plus, there would be at least some evidence of the guy arguing for trans people if that was the case.
'Following', for most people, translates to 'things I'm interested in'. Are you really claiming there's nothing at least suspicious in the statement "I'm interested in limiting trans rights"?
Lastly, they are free to correct any misconceptions publicly. Did he? Nope, just went on to criticize the medical industry and praise Jordan Peterson.

Why would you follow an account like that, being a public figure, if you disagree with its contents?
