Dog, “Communism” as practiced has always been (or at least quickly devolved into) authoritarian conservatism. Idk how that is even a debate. We have not had a successful communist movement yet.

All nationalism is conservative by definition. Nationalism is based on order and cultural/national idealized traits which are the hallmarks of conservatism.

Lol lots of faces being eaten by leopards. Even other leopards’ faces. They don’t discriminate. It’s like any fascist state. A bunch of feral rats cannibalizing each other.

Especially, so. They’re already turning on each other.

Cambodia. Genuinely the nicest, and most helpful, people I have ever encountered all throughout the country. I was told about their general friendliness before, but was blown away by actually seeing it firsthand.

How do you play 3 player campaign on one PC? Doesn’t the MCC prevent that? Or did they patch it out?
- Comment on Are mood problems a “turn off” for people even when they’re hard to manage? 3 months ago:
For the most part, yes. Definitely depends on the person, but this can be a very challenging social dynamic. It sounds pretty chaotic and I am not sure how many people would be able to deal with that day by day.
To your last point, emotional communication is always tough and it’s really hard to piece things together to get your thoughts across when tensions are high. I think that coming from a mindset of refining and explaining, to yourself first and then to others, why you feel a certain way or did a certain action could be a good start.
Additionally, a lot of people do not respond well to “tough love”. I would argue that for the majority of scenarios, it’s one of the least successful ways to go about showing support and care for someone else. Setting clear and respectful boundaries is one thing, but providing only conditional support is a great way to tank a relationship and have someone distrust you. I think it’s also helpful to unpack why you feel you need to act that way with people you care about. For me, that took a lot of work (still does) and goes back to my relationship with my dad (which has its positives and negatives, a lot of which we’ve worked through over the years).
One of the most important ideas I’ve come across with communication is that you should ask yourself if your actions are helping you meet your goals in the conversation. If you really want to build a strong trusting relationship with someone, that’s going to look wildly different to the actions you would take if you really want to distance yourself from someone. And if you mess up with how you presented yourself or how you meant to come across, address it as soon as you possibly can. Clear communication is key and being clear with yourself and your goals/wants/needs/preferences is the start of that.
Hope that helps lol good luck out there. There’s a lot of happiness to bring to the world if you work toward it.

You’ve got to tick the other games you want in the dlc page after going to the game’s properties in steam.
You can do that now to add the ones you want to play. For some reason if you just click download without selecting any other dlc, it just installs Reach.

- Comment on What are some actual good *sour* sour candy? 4 months ago:
Depends on the flavor. It isn’t sour in and of itself, but I have had some pretty sour flavors of saltwater taffy.
I also was a big fan of the blue sour punch straws but am not sure if they changed their flavor over the last twenty or so years lol it seems like a lot of sour candies have so that may be something to watch out for.

It shows.
- Comment on Memory is a fickle mistress 5 months ago:
In its first years it actually ran alongside a lot of interesting and significantly more scholarly shows on those two networks. The early 2000s actually had some solid programming on the history channel. Pretty quickly devolved into pawn stars and ancient aliens after that, though. So, yeah, half to most of its run was alongside utter garbage.
