Any reliable source/study on the global male fascist thing? I see it repeated a lot and would love details on how true it might be and why

There are places in the US, that when you buy a house or property, you are given a choice. You can build a sidewalk for it yourself, or you can pay the city/county for a sidewalk.
The thing is, if you pay the city/county for the sidewalk, they stipulate that they can build that sidewalk where ever they want. This does not have to include in front of, or anywhere near, your house
The US is a very strange place.

I’ll leave this here, as I’m particularly bothered by the weird megamyth of kudzu in the US, as is evidenced but the other comments.
English ivy is actually a generally bigger threat but it never gets any real attention.
I will concede that the image above is kudzu tho.

- Comment on Sid Meier’s Civilization VII - Gameplay Reveal Trailer 5 months ago:
I like Humankind.
I like the civ switch since you can change you priorities each age. Also I like having a leader I actually like with a civ I like.
Let’s me do what I want to do the entire campaign instead of having to be stick with some stuff I don’t like just to play with the things I do like.
I’m terrible at these games so I can’t speak to balance and strategy and stuff. I use lots of auto stuff or relying on suggested choices from advisors lol.

Lay tex.
Why bother to fit your acronym to latex otherwise. ConTexT is another one. Would be silly otherwise.
The creator might promote saying tech, but that shouldn’t matter since they Internet ignores the creator of the gif format and swears on ghif instead of the desired jiff…
- Comment on Fast-food chains battle for low-income diners with summer value meals 6 months ago:
Waffle House, Denny’s, IHOP, aren’t even fast food… They’re just bad food. I still don’t understand why people eat at these places. It’s not like it’s ever the only option, or the cheapest option.
Also I love this picture.

There are still players. Much more rare I’m sure. I played maybe 4 months ago and met a few people.

Gris hooked me much more than Journey.
Gris broke me lol. It was so beautiful, so emotional.

Witcher 3 took me a few attempts before I finally got into it. And those types of games were always my favorite.
I don’t think Witcher 3 stuck until the DLCs. Now I’m sad I’m done with the game…
- Comment on hooooly shit! has anyone else played journey? 7 months ago:
I’m with you here.
I played it just recently so I didn’t get to play with as many people as I’m sure there were at the start. I did encounter others frequently enough though. Even played with 1 person for a big chunk.
It was fine. It’s pretty and it has soul for sure but it’s not a transcendent experience like so many seem to describe. Maybe I’m broken in my own way, maybe I missed something, maybe I don’t understand art. Who knows.
I had fun though and it was worth the price.

This is the way. We didn’t abandon that awesome machine! It went above and beyond from day one and kicked ass! It’s a true hero.

I see this and worse daily here and I rarely drive.
I’ve seen this exact scenario but the “polite” person is in a normal lane, not a turning lane. I hate drivers here.

Starting Rogue Trader this week. Having fun with it.

The conversion rate isn’t great.
There were talks of using them in sidewalks, but it doesn’t really make much sense really. Piezo almost always only works as energy recovery, which isn’t nothing but you will need the infrastructure which also isn’t nothing.

Nah, just a non-traditional way of saying wind generators like turbines.

Only been playing balatro. Now it’s fully out. Hooray!
- Comment on First game you played 11 months ago:
Sheesh. That’s a tough one. My memory is trash from TBIs… Maybe pong, or space invaders? I think it would be something that was in an arcade. Our first console was the NES with SMB, but we definitely played in arcades before that.

Anyway to roll back firmware on some of these TVs?
Mine was never connected, except once a friend came over and connected it and it updated and now it requires a connection to rename inputs…
It’s never been connected since that day either.
Hate this kind of crap.

SO STRESSFUL!
I love this game so much. I have to constantly walk away from the stress lol.
- Comment on Did someone tell Steam it's not April 1st yet? 1 year ago:
Why did you include great in new/innovative?
I think the ship builder fits all of that despite your wording. It was new, it was fun, it achieved awesome results. The amount of interesting ships people built was crazy. It plays a pretty big part of the game, and finishing some unique skills out there was cool.
Possibly killing off your spouse or main companion was wild. I can’t recall having the possibility happen in a game like this before. That messed me up for a bit.
The looping gameplay with insane universes was innovative. A bit tedious to achieve but still neat
