Palia. It’s free on Xbox and PlayStation. Has in game purchases but I’ve never bought one. My fiancee started playing it recently and ask me to play. You can grow a farm, it’s 3D, get a glider, run around and do missions. I’m sure it’s free for PC as well

Yarp, about a decade ago after a break up I went on a 2 month bender, nothing but alcohol and fast food. Drink maybe 10-12 hours a day on average. So more than 2000 calories a day in drinks for sure, and idk what in fast food. But I walked everywhere to not get myself into DUI situations. I lost 20 pounds in 2 months
- Comment on Batman probably checks for the bat signal the way we check our screens for notifications. 6 days ago:
Since Batman doesn’t wear glasses and has a mask, I feel like it’s just as likely he’d have a like a smart glasses type thing built into his mask. So he really wouldn’t have to look anywhere but the notification would just be a translucent overlay.
Or maybe full coverage heat retardant smart contacts, so they protect his eyes from any debris/explosions. Kind of like what Tom Cruise wore to perform the outside the plane stunt in the last mission impossible movie. Covers the whole outside of the eyeball so the wind does dry out your eye or make it so you can’t see.

- Comment on The Discord Breach Might Be Worse Than We Thought, As The Hacker Is Said To Have Two Million Age Verification Photos 1 week ago:
To me giving a company or government permission to create the databases allowed for mass facial recognition is the same thing as giving the facial recognition data to criminals. It will be leaked/hacked/sold, etc. It is only a matter of time.
How many Social security numbers in the U.S. have been leaked/hacked/sold/illegally transferred? ~340 million.
Facial recognition will be a near useless tool for security in 10 years, and 100% for population monitoring at the rate we are going.
- Comment on How Long is Too Long for a Reply? 1 week ago:
I imagine a lot of those ones with shit tons of comments from a couple days old are just people who are sorted by active instead of hot, so it keeps them at the top of their feed when they log in. Then you find pinned comments at the top of subs, which someone may accidentally respond to even if they are sorted by something else.
I figure so long as they are trying to answer a question, and not criticize someone’s point, should be fine.

You could start by sending them a letter that informs them of this occuring and how it impacts the world around them before you skip straight to vandalism. I’m sure a lot of people just never considered the extent of that data that is being shared so much as they figured only they would have access to the footagem

- Comment on They deported my Chihuahua 1 week ago:
Honest question, Is it racist to train a GSD to take commands in German, or to put a musher hat on an Alaskan Malamute? They are dogs that come from an nation/state. Or are you trying to say that a sombrero is offensive to the people of Mexico?
The fact that people are being deported based off how they look or where they come from is racist, I can’t see how honoring a heritage or bringing cultural differences into your culture is racist.
- Comment on Could a minority in US Senate essentially disolve the federal state? 1 week ago:
When you do it through reconciliation they only have 20 hours on the floor, so I doubt the Democrats would even bother trying to filibuster for 20 hours because it ultimately does nothing but waste their day. It would go into effect either way
- Comment on Could a minority in US Senate essentially disolve the federal state? 1 week ago:
The “Big Beautiful Bill Act” was a budget that passed through the Senate with a 51-50 vote on July 1, 2025. (The tie vote coming from the Vice president because not all of the Republicans to voted for it.)
As of October 1st the government is shut down because Trump wants it shut down. Only 4 budgets have passed without using the reconciliation process since 1974. It is pretty much the expected process at this point.

- Comment on Everybody is fine with celebrities like Whoopi Goldberg making up fake names for themselves, but when someone chooses a name for themselves to suit their gender identity it's suddenly a problem 2 weeks ago:
What do you mean by society moving quicker than science? Transgender people have existed before most scientific advancements. They existed in ancient Greece, they exist in Norse Mythology… They were persecuted in several government systems in the past such as Germany, they have always been here. It’s just that social media and the Internet brings more information to people than ever before. So instead of never having met a trans person in your life more people are being introduced to them than ever before. Which also means some people who may have never understood what was going on with themselves and why they felt so different than the boxes society around them was placing them into. I know I’m a guy, I was born one and have always been one. If you look at Women’s athletics, say the Olympics you will see many women that have naturally occuring high levels of testosterone that may be higher than your average male. You will also find men who have extremely low testosterone. So scientifically I see it as a blend that the hormones in our bodies have naturally created showing that what we define as man, and woman doesn’t encompass everything. Only when we try to put someone in a group do we start to think that there is something abnormal about a person having higher or lower testosterone. Then you can get into the facet of sexual parts. 1.7/100 people are born with intersexual traits. If we say a person has to be a man or a woman, then there is a 1.7% chance a person doesn’t fit into either box at birth. I see no reason that person shouldnt be able to live a happy life, not be treated the same as everyone else around them.
I’m not a trans person, I am not well educated on all of it because it isn’t something I had to educate myself on. But using that number there, scientifically there were 5.78 million people in the U.S. that were born outside the box of Man or Woman. To put that into perspective, 28 of the 50 states have less people in them, than the number of people born with intersex traits.
So when someone downplays them and acts like they shouldn’t exist, maybe it’s easier to look at it as saying all of a U.S. state shouldn’t exist simply because they were born there.
- Comment on Everybody is fine with celebrities like Whoopi Goldberg making up fake names for themselves, but when someone chooses a name for themselves to suit their gender identity it's suddenly a problem 2 weeks ago:
I don’t think anyone considers calling someone by another name a crime, it’s just considered rude and non business like. If I went into work and called someone I didn’t like by another random name all the time until the point it was making them feel uncomfortable, HR would come ask me to stop making creating a less than ideal work environment and making my coworkers uncomfortable. If I refused to do so, I would expect the HR department to end my employment for that company. None of it is a hate crime, but people have a right to exist and be not be treated in a way you wouldn’t treat others.

- Comment on Disney going places... 2 weeks ago:
I haven’t seen she hulk, actually didn’t know that came out haha. Moana I thought was good. But wasn’t Frozen 1 about her not being able to control her emotions so she would freeze things in accident? And I liked Encanto, which it’s been awhile but I believe it surrounds the idea of her feeling insecure while her sister is overpowered while ultimately emotionally wrecked.
I usually just avoid the marvel stuff though. I used to avoid Disney in general, but Moana, Encanto. Wish I completely forgot about when I just looked what other animated movies they put out, so that wasn’t all that memorable, lol

- Comment on Trump says TikTok should be tweaked to become “100% MAGA” 2 weeks ago:
What would he care if it kills a lot of use. Some will stay, even if it becomes just an echo chamber, there will be users who don’t leave and slowly get fed more and more content that changes their bias.
A propaganda machine does have to reach 100% of the population, it just needs to pluck small percentages that were on the outskirts and hold the current believers in a situation where they believe this is better than whatever bologna scenario they make up would happen if they weren’t doing this. America is MUCH safer place to live today than it was when I was born back in 89’.
Yet a large portion of the population does not believe that, because they throw murders in people’s faces through every facet of our lives to make people feel afraid and use security as an excuse to gain further control over people’s rights.
Anyone who thinks “I could leave my doors unlocked back in the 1990s and I can’t today” has been fooled.
Anyone who thinks subways, trains, or public transit isn’t multiple times safer than getting into a car and driving to work, has been fooled.
And social media as well as news stations want us to be angry and scared, because it gets people engaged. Engagement makes them money. Happy people who feel safe go outside and go to the beach, play sports, go hiking, go to movies, join a book club, have a hobby of some sort. None of those things make news outlets money. Social media could, because they could sell ad slots to people who sell products for those hobbies… but I guess it doesn’t make as much.
- Comment on Elon musk is a pedophile 3 weeks ago:
Is it guaranteed, no. Did he go to Epsteins Island where they trafficked children for sex, yes. Did his father marry his step daughter and get accused of being a pedophile, yes. Very much seems like he was taught it was okay when he “had a colored servant friend” therefore couldn’t be racist.
