  Unions are absolutely why we have 40 hour work weeks I wasn’t saying otherwise. Just that because of how our day works 8 hours of work was what people fought for. If we had days that were 48 hours things could be different and people could have fought for 10 hours days.

  The point isn’t about how our work week works though, it’s about how dumb it is to assume that other planets wouldn’t have possibly longer work weeks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are the chances⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Welllll the 40 hr work week is based off our 24 hour days and some planets have much longer than 24 hours in their day. So realistically some planets could have 60 hr work weeks. Plus we have no idea the governmental structure and ideology of other worlds and if they even allow you to stop working at all/you’re worked to death or if they have such an advanced society that you don’t even really have to work much at all.

  Basically, this is kinda dumb.

  Well we all know that Fascism experts are the least important people to have around when Fascism takes over a country.

  Technically you can criticize from afar but it’s good to have fascism experts on the front lines.

  This is also an incredibly privileged thing to be able to do and one that the vast majority of the most vulnerable and likely to be on the camp list are stuck here and would like some experts to help fight back.

  If anyone wants to know what subreddit, it’s r/changemyview. I remember seeing a ton of similar posts about controversial opinion ne and even now people are questioning Am I overreacting a lot and AITAH. AI posts in those kind of subs are seemingly pretty frequent.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How many games do you manage to play at the same time?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah sorta. I write the review as I go. Whenever a thing jumps out at me or I have moments where I’m focusing on a specific thing frequently, I’ll write about a paragraph about it and then move on. Sometimes a long one, sometimes a short one. Once I’m finished with the game, I go back through and edit and restructure and get rid of some things that ended up not being important or change some of my thoughts based on how the game develops. Sometimes, early on, something jumps out at me and I write something about it, and then later on that thing gets fixed and I just get rid of the whole paragraph.

  I’m an independent games reviewer, so 1. But even before I did that, I still could only play 1 at a time.

  People need to stop supporting Nintendo at all. They’re lawsuit happy assholes who have been doing everything they can to piss away any good will they might have had. They’re the only game company out there who refuses to make enough of many of their products, like their mini NES and SNES, to meet demand because then its “exclusive”, they are the only company trying to destroy all type of emulation for Nintendo consoles, and they’re the only company who seems to actually want their older games to disappear into the ether.

  Fuck Nintendo.

  Ah yes, because we all know someone worth at least 30 million is a “working person.”
