Why are you all the way down here by yourself, we gotta move this comment up, and thank you!

Yes, other space debris.

See, you get my worry. The tension’s not bad, just a lot for the kids.

You know, I think that’s a good thing, I don’t think I’d be excited for an enormous asteroid headed towards Earth.

Hey Op don’t play it in front of the kids, you’ll thank me later.

I’mma do it, I’mma be the one to bring up Undertale this time (estimated 2 hours, worth a few replays), there’s also little nightmares (2-4 hours depending on platforming skills) which is a spooky little game, but not too spooky if you ever play in front of the kids.

Thanks for the warning, but I don’t mind different; different can be good. I’m excited to see the beginnings of my childhood game, I think it’ll be worth the patience. Though, having a hard time finding it, it’s not on the blizzard downloads list. I’mma do more digging tho, it’s gotta be out there somewhere.

Yes, there was an odd vibe here I couldn’t pin down, I think you found it.

I think now is a good time for a friendly reminder; political left & right can vary drastically by nation, they can be similar but don’t expect labels to line up perfectly (confederative is a good example of a changing definition across nations). When it comes to the tone of the article though, I think you hit the nail on the head. In my experience, the BBC has some bias when reporting on other nations, especially if they were once a British colony (seriously yikes). I’m not surprised they’re doing a little French bashing, it’s kind of an old habit for the British lol.

You know, I never tried Diablo 1 even though I grew up religiously playing Diablo 2. Also love the original fallout games, I definitely need to make time for this.

I’ve always enjoyed left 4 dead as a casual co-op, and Back 4 Blood is a great revamp of the originals. Idk about others, but I’ve always had a hard time getting competitive in these games. Though if you want a little friendly competition, versus still exists with a lot of fun new special zombies.

This is my stance on it too. People like to treat today’s political environment as two sides of a coin diametrically opposed, but that’s not how political ideology works, it’s more nuance than that, like a sphere. I get why American’s do it with a two-party system, but that doesn’t mean you’re all in on one or another, people are more nuance than that too. People who run with this mentality that there are only two sides to politics often fall into the mistake of equating to two as equal sides as you said. It makes it hard to acknowledge the difference of the extremes and their intentions.

Though I think the biggest reason people are less tolerant the alt right is because there are more reasons outside of politics to be against the alt right. Outside of politics, alt lefties usually get into arguments with economist and capitalist because extreme leftist have intensions to change the economic landscape. Whether for better or worse is precisely what they’re arguing about. There’s also the more fringe alt left (tankies I believe) who will get in a tussle with historians and survivors alike, but their conversations chill out once they realize no one’s condoning anything (usually, idk all you tankies).

Meanwhile the alt right targets specific freedoms enshrined by the US constitution and the Human Bill of Rights. The alt right wants a say in who you marry, whether or not you should adopt, religious rule you should abide by, who should/shouldn’t get to vote, whether the vote should be decided by the people or legislator (you now Democracy and all), your identity, your medical decisions, your family planning, your education, and the very books you read. There’s a desire to snub out individuality if it doesn’t abide by the alt rights idea of “normal.” All of these stances directly invade individual rights of many people and their ability to pursue their respective happiness. While there’s political reasons to speak out against these stances, there’s also moral obligation and the simple instinct of survival pushing back on these perspectives. This creates a large group of people who not only disagree, but whose existence is literally threaten, there’s no room for tolerance when lives and freedom are on the line. The reason alt right has a tough time is because most Americans still hold age-old American values of liberty, life, and the pursuit of happiness.

Fallout: New Vegas. Wait now, don’t laugh at me. I’m painfully aware it was built on an engine that just does not cooperate and crashes regularly. BUT, the gameplay itself, the roleplaying, the fights (yes I do like VATS), and the choices by god the choices. So many choices with so many consequences, telltale wishes they were this cool. The only thing for me that’s holding this game back is 1) the rickety engine it’s attempting to balance on, and 2) unfinished quest lines. The devs for this game had so many brilliant ideas that never made it on screen, I don’t know if they shot themselves in the foot, or if the deadlines were unrealistic. Even though some of the main quests between the warring factions feel lopsided, and some interesting things seem to go to a dead-end, the game never felt unfinished to me. There was so much to do and try, I never felt cheated by the game in narrative. Instead, I just want more because it was awesome how interactive the world was. It responded to my decisions and made a unique playthrough because of my decisions, I don’t believe the predecessors even come close to this. Sure 3 and 4 kept similar mechanics, but the game didn’t react to your choices. If I had one wish it would be to see Fallout New Vegas as the devs intended, with every plot line completed and polished, I’d even continue to play it on its rickety system. Though this would need to be a magical wish because there’s no way that engine could handle the work needed, and converting this content to a new engine would be very expensive (so I’m told). I know she’s not perfect, but goddamn she has the potential to be.

You know what, yes. I think I will do that, idc if I’m complaining to a void anymore, its unhealthy to keep all the rage inside. Better to plan civil disobedience than get swept up into a riot from it. At least all of these comments make my rage feel valid.

I’m full of rage, the law means nothing we have no rights, fuck the courts, any petty revenge I can pull to get some type of catharsis I will until the loans are paid off; so for the rest of my life. If anyone has any play to be of mild annoyance, let me know I have one purpose and it’s to fuck shit up.

Speaking of app developers, has anyone heard anything about a Beehaw app? I haven’t seen it brought up yet

So they say the meat is 99% chicken cell, does anyone know what the 1% is? I’d just feel better knowing.

You described my college experience to a T, it was hard going home and realizing my family, not just my community, is plagued by hatred of people they never met.

I’ll never forget this poem, it really shaped my perspective on speaking up sooner rather than later. There was another poem that echoed similar sentiments, but I can only remember the line “I will not be an agent of death.”

Thank you, your explanation made some sense of this metaphor. I’m not familiar with this period of British history, so this metaphor shot right over me. Either way, I’m interested to see how the voting goes.
