• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How the hell is there not a Green Arrow video game?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Because Warner Brothers owns the rights to all DC games right now and nobody at Warner has any idea how to actually produce good video games. The Arkham games were good because they came out before loot boxes and online-only games were a thing. Now if a game doesn’t earn a billion dollars in the first year, the game is considered a failure.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do i see so many americans obsessed with the concept of "this is a thing that [Ethnicity] does"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Most Americans do not live in or near a big city. We tend to live in towns that have a majority of only one or two ethnic groups. My town has whites and latinos but very few black people. I personally know only two black people and neither one lives near me. The only Chinese people I know are the ones who operate the Chinese restaurant in town. My experience is not unique.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Since the government can theoretically access the location of everyone's phone, wouldn't it be unsafe for an undocumented immigrant to have a phone?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I get what you are saying, but there is a pretty big difference between “undocumented immigrant” and “the authorities are actively looking for you.” Also, it’s pretty easy to enter alias information into a phone so you can use it without announcing that it belongs to you.

  While OP’s post is not the sort of thing we normally see here, the sidebar does say “Anything and everything goes. Memes, Jokes, Vents and Banter.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How the fuck do you meet new people?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Here are a few suggestions:
  Volunteer at a soup kitchen
  Sign up for a church email newsletter and go there when they are doing pot-luck meals (bring a dish to pass)
  If you are into sports, sign up to volunteer as a coach.
  Don’t buy all of your groceries all at one time. Buy a few things each time and go more often. Even if you don’t meet or talk to anyone but the workers, you will be around other people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yesterday in Kroger (a supermarket for you non-Americans) I saw a bunch of cans of potato salad. Why would someone buy canned potato salad?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Fun fact: a small amount of vinegar in the cooking water helps to keep potatoes to keep from getting mushy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How Much Would You Pay to Make Sure You Never Sawed Off a Finger?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The struggle for people like me is that I currently can’t afford a new saw, and I don’t like the idea that the way Sawstop works is that it ruins the blade in addition to saving your fingers. A cheap trade when it works as intended but not cheap at all when it goes off because you forgot to disable it before cutting some treated lumber.
