If you’re familiar with the show… you know the answer.

Kind of, except that if you throw your funds at a grassroots candidate, you’re helping to give them the ability to convince other people to vote for them in the actual election, and you could choose to (for example) give all of your funding to that grassroots candidate but still vote strategically in the general.
- Comment on Overturn Citizens United (and launch billionaires into space) 1 week ago:
Imagine a system where a certain amount of funds were allocated to elections, that amount was divided by every citizen, and we were each given the option to allocate our percentage to the candidate(s) of our choice, perhaps with some minimum amount given to each candidate in addition to cover cases where new candidates are trying to enter.

Woah! Sanitarium was cool, did not expect to be seeing this, what, 25-28 years later…

If a new take on an old MMO is interesting, maybe look up Everquest Legends. It’s basically an oldschool MMO combined with a massive power fantasy. It has problems (many, many problems), but it’s still a pretty good time.

Well, can you blame us? :(

And then you just have people who just don’t know any better.
This is an interesting perspective that I hadn’t considered. Can’t really blame folks in that situation.

This whole time, that was an option?! I feel so cheated.
- Comment on Flat earthers 2 weeks ago:
I still refuse to believe that any of them actually believe the earth is flat. It’s either a grift in the case of social media accounts that push the rhetoric, or a big joke in the case of everyone else. Even if some of them do actually believe it, I still choose to believe this theory, because it makes me hate humanity a little less.

When will people realize that nobody likes accounts created specifically to market shit? For fuck’s sake. Join the platform as a normal user. Engage with it as a normal user. Post shit that isn’t about your products, comment on posts, join communities. Maybe then, and only then, you can earn the right to post some self-promotion now and then. This, though? Fuck this. Fuck off.

Aww, man. I saw this post and was immediately excited, thinking that these games were being remade or re-released on a modern system, only to find that no, it is merely a post rightfully dedicated to how good these games were.

Look how long it took Team Cherry to make Silksong, and look what we got for it. Maybe this is a sign that ES6 will be a masterpiece and won’t be a buggy mess propped up by a rampant modding community willing to put in the work to fix it all.

Seems completely plausible, as part of their rhetoric to turn people against drag queen story hour.
- Comment on Chill out 5 weeks ago:
Someone a long time ago pointed out that they likely do it on purpose just to bait engagement from people saying basically exactly what you’re saying, and I think about it every time either the ridiculous censoring, or this style of objection come up.

That price is certainly not representative of what was actually available when I was booking. There were $99 tickets but only if you wanted to leave at 5AM or arrive after 4PM. If you want to leave between 8-10AM and arrive at a reasonable time, there were no coach options and business class was $200+.
- Comment on I'll take it to all 2 place it goes! 1 month ago:
Train stations definitely have less bullshit, but it’s a 5h trip vs a 1h trip in this case. I could have spent 3 hours in the airport before the flight each way and added 30 minutes to get from the train station to the airport and back, and still saved time by flying.
- Comment on I'll take it to all 2 place it goes! 1 month ago:
We don’t have high speed rail, either, so that trip would only take you (by my understanding) about 1.5-2 hours.
- Comment on I'll take it to all 2 place it goes! 1 month ago:
I’ve had to take a train from Boston to NYC and back a few times. Round trip, it costs anywhere from $200 to $500 depending on whether you want to leave / arrive at a reasonable time or not, and it takes about 5 hours, which is slightly longer than driving takes. Incidentally I can fly from BOS to JFK round trip for about $200, assuming reasonably early booking, and the flight is about 1 hour. So this doesn’t surprise me at all.

I’m actually curious how it’s sung in Spanish, they have a few extra letters in the critical range.
l, ll, m, n, ñ, o, p
I took Spanish in highschool but that was a long time ago. I vaguely recall learning a weird version of the alphabet song that starts with A, B, C, CH, D, E, F as the first grouping, but I can’t recall how it went past that.

A lot of it comes down to what you believe happens after you die. Personally, I believe we just stop existing, that nothing comes afterwards. I believe that when I die, it’ll be like going to sleep, I just won’t dream, and won’t wake up.
Going to sleep is, generally speaking, a very peaceful and pleasant experience. When I die, nothing going on in the world will matter anymore. All of my problems and worries will just instantly go away. Nothing I think matters actually will.
Personally, I find the prospect of there being nothing after death to be immensely comforting. I don’t fear it at all.

I mean there are literal websites devoted to all kinds of porn. Are you a prude about all of it, or only the furry sort? :P

Did you actually ask any furries? I’ve never met a furry who had a difficult time explaining that it’s a fandom for people who enjoy anthropomorphic animals. That’s all there is to it.
- Comment on Survey says... 2 months ago:
Rather than re-allocating their money across every human on earth, why not allocate it inversely proportional to the net worth of the recipient (and maybe also local currency conversion rate), to uplift the poorest folks?
Could probably choose a lower number, too - say, $100M. Nobody needs anywhere remotely close to that.

In all fairness, it’s in no way required to own a fursuit to be a furry. :) It’s only as expensive as you want it to be.

Because gamers have a finite amount of time and money? New releases are literally competing for both of those.
