“The truth about X” is inherently clickbaity.
What truth? Click to find out!
You can’t even tell if the video is going to be for or against “X” until you click it and watch for a bit.

If people had just chilled the fuck out… we might be in a better place now.
Gamers aren’t a bloc, and each person has their own individual game tastes, opinions, and willingness to spend money on trivial junk.
Most gamers are tween Fortnight players or ones who play exclusively mobile games full of ads. They are not people like us. This was inevitable, and nothing would have or will ever change it. Most people just want a pleasant distraction from the horrors of life and don’t have any particular principles when it comes to how they spend their money on games.
Who knows, maybe pretty horse armor saved some kid from suicide.

Don’t listen to the haters. The original sentence was ambiguous.
- Comment on Zelda-Inspired Plucky Squire Shows What Happens When A Game Doesn't Trust Its Players 1 month ago:
You gotta admit it s confusing and abnormal to put a single “no” entry in the middle of a comma-delimited list of “yes” entries. Normally you’d say,
It has this, that, and the other thing, and no bad things, malthings, or blahs.
Sometimes the “and” and “or” are left out.
It has this, that, the other thing, and no bad things, malthings, blahs.
The original commenter took this format, and mixed it all up like
It has this, no bad thing, other thing
Is that no other thing or yes other thing? Who can tell? Only people who didn’t need to be told these things in the first place.

Username appropriate.
- Comment on Harris wants to end subminimum wages for disabled workers—if they're not behind bars 2 months ago:
If you could hire an able bodied person for $16/hr, and they can glaze 100 pieces of pottery a day, or you could hire a disabled person for the same pay who can only glaze 25 a day because of their disability, who are you going to hire? I’m talking about a local small business pottery shop who hires people to glaze the pieces.
If a lazy but able-bodied person took the job and refused to meet the 100 pieces a day quota, they’d be fired, and rightfully so. So why are disabled people special? Why do they deserve a pay rate and a quota that an able-bodied person would be fired for? Or maybe you think that firing a lazy person is calling them “less than” and is unethical. Well, at least you’d be consistent.
If you think a small business could survive hiring people who can only produce 1/4 of the normal output at a full wage… I don’t know what day. It’s just not feasible.
I’m sorry for the harsh truth, but sometimes in some ways some disabled people are “less than”. As in sometimes they can only do less work per hour as an an able bodied person. A small business can’t survive while being charitable to disabled workers.
These disability wage laws exist so businesses can legally hire disabled people and pay them something when otherwise they would have no job at all. In my state, the business has to prove they can’t produce the same work in the same time as an able-bodied person. And their wage has to reflect whatever percentage of the work they can do.
I’m 100% in favor of government subsidies for making up the wage difference for disabled people, and not making any benefits dependant on having such a job. The job would be purely a choice for disabled people.
I know it sounds weird in this day and age to say this, but having a job can be very rewarding. I can totally imagine a disabled person preferring to work a job at low pay, having a routine, and interacting with coworkers rather than staying home all day doing hobbies and watching TV.

- Comment on Can we get it to where the thread shows 100 instead of ten ? Hell even 50 would be fine. If not and its a coding issue teach me how to code and i will do it. 2 months ago:
Like programming, learning how to diagnose and repair cars takes hundreds of hours. It’s a ridiculous thing to ask for just to change a minor feature. Like hilariously funny because of how naive the request is.
“Can someone paint the moon red for me? If not, can you teach me how to build rockets and landers, and how to paint, so I can do it myself?”
That’s what you sounded like, taken to the extreme.
What does “safe place” have to do with teaching people how to program? No one here is going to teach you how to program no matter how “safe” this place is. If you want to learn how to program, join Khan Academy or something.
- Comment on Are there any good casual/low-stress mobile games that aren't filled with microtransactions? 4 months ago:
You need to make a bulleted list because your lists came out as jumbled paragraphs. At a minimum you need to put two spaces at the end of each line to preserve line breaks.
I’ll fix it since you put in all the effort to write that up.

- Peglin ✨
- Luck be a landlord ✨
- Forager

That’s not select-a-size. That’s just tiny ass paper towels. Select-a-size towels have no perforations and you cut them with scissors.
