The west coast stuck to its guns almost completely. Mark Robinson and Kari Lake lost their races incredibly enough.

Biden got some big stuff done with chips, infrastructure investment, and more. Unless Trump starts tearing down bridges and forcing people to remove heat pumps, some of Biden’s stuff will be very difficult to reverse, physically or politically.

Hell of an uphill battle against MQ-9s, hellfire, and LRAS.

Too many people stayed home when they should have voted. It was their civic duty and moral goddamn obligation to the rest of the world. Fuck…

Dude, you got plenty of time. Look for remote jobs. Somebody needs you and your computer engineering skills! Speaking English also unlocks a lot of potential opportunities for remote work.

This is a seriously cool article. An accretion disk tens of thousands of light-years across is fucking wild. That’s getting awfully close to our own SMBH at our galactic core, sag A* if LID was placed between us and our SMBH.

A fucking plasma of superheated matter from a black hole could be crisping our black hole and Earth simultaneously. Jesus.

It fucks with me in that I lose focus, but it’s depressing AF to work while the sun is shining and leave as it’s going down. I’m not a farmer, give me that mf sunlight back so I can hang out with friends :p

Registering to vote is EZ too, as someone who bounced between states after uni.

Yes! Whole family AND friends and even friends who were gonna throw away their votes (changed their mind and voted well). Got people in big big online group chats to vote as well. Fingers crossed for the good outcome :)

Tbh, I’m fine with big AAAA games burning in financially, like Anthem or Redfall. The AA games from smaller devs are great, and I just don’t buy the next game if they buy out a smaller studio and all the OG devs go on to building a new company. That’s how we got games like Half Life, when MSFT devs got sick of working for a mega company and decided to build their own game.

If they buy out a studio and all the devs leave and form a new studio with the proceeds of the prior studio, it means more quality indie titles.

Not to that age yet, but I feel slightly envious of families that I see at downhill mountain bike parks or camping or sledding. I want to have a family just like that someday :)

Is tildes still around? I haven’t heard from it since the blackout.

Both of these broke my brain.

If Margaritas are gay, who wants to be straight?

Seriously. If I was a girl, there’s no way I’d want to fuck someone with a filthy asshole, especially on my sheets. Skidmarks on the sheets and smelling like old shit is gross.

Wash your ass and groin with soap and water just like you do your armpits and feet.

My unasked for advice? Keep your butthole hair trimmed or shaved. Makes it much easier to keep clean, and it takes two seconds in the shower.

Depends on the bar, but gay bars can actually be pretty chill. Everyone there was really nice and the atmosphere is fun.

The first time we went in, we were super awkward, and a nice older guy saw us standing in the doorway and kinda scooped us up and showed us around the place (coat check, pool/games area, etc). It gave us the warm fuzzies. :)

Both my SO and I aren’t straight, but people are pretty respectful and nice at that bar, and I wouldn’t feel unwelcome even if I was batting for the other team.

I agree. Most people kinda look similar. And you kinda tune it all out anyways once it becomes mundane.

Plus, there’s a real community aspect, which is nice.

Occam’s razor suggests it would have already happened had that been the case. When the chips were down, Jan 6th happened and Trump was still in office despite government buildings being seized and civil servants were threatened or even killed. If there was going to be something like that, it would have been on Jan 6th while the president was watching from the White House.

I think it would be very wise to just vote for the normal person so we don’t even have to entertain the possibility of an authoritarian government and a resulting civil war. Once we are no longer a democracy, or are a managed democracy like Russia, it will be extremely difficult to unring that bell.

More games and a Matrix-esque visual file manager where you could walk through various libraries of documents, files, videos or pictures in 3D space, or proportional size like WinDirStat would be cool.

The lack of good games has really made VR hard to enjoy. I have five good evergreen titles and not much else.
