- Comment on Supreme Court kicks cases about tech companies’ First Amendment rights back to lower courts − but appears poised to block states from hampering online content moderation 1 day ago:
They’re geared up for the authoritarian state. Corporate rule. Gutted EPA, FFA, etc. No privacy. Moderated online content. Increase the “domestic supply of infants” (read: work and military forces) by making women more brood mare like (see: Roes fall). And now a president is more like a king and can do anything. All of it points in one general direction.
- Comment on Taxing Very High-Value Home Sales Is an Equitable and Effective Strategy to Raise Revenue and Fund Affordable Housing 5 days ago:
The issue here is it’s hitting the tier of people who are just able to get in on a house purchase. Only to have that price raised on them after purchase, through taxes. Especially irksome when it’s known they’ve overpaid just to get a place to land. Will the taxes go down if they sell for less? Probably not.
More squeeze on the little guy.

I think Bioware itself got rid of those god awful beige 70s supervillain pajamas.

Outfits, weapons, junk is worth real money.

This is correct.

Settlement management can get tedious and be a large time sink. Sim settlements 2 is actually not bad. You can off the most annoying ones on “mayors” to control. Show up later and add things if needed.
- Comment on Will I ever be seen as truly British? 1 month ago:
We’re a larger melting pot. In fact, that’s kind of our schtick. In spite of the racial shit, it swings entirely the other way as well. It’s a big country. England doesn’t cover a lot of surface area. 68million vs 341.5million.
Regionally there’s dialect nuance based on immigration. We’re a country of immigrants. If we’re discussing Poland then let’s talk Wisconsin. You can’t throw a stick in any direction without hitting a “ski” last name. People actually say shit like “borrow me your car Friday” or “borrow me a pencil”, instead of “lend”. My understanding is borrow and lend are the same word in Polish, context telling you what you need to know. All without identifying as Polish, just Midwest American, as far as I can tell. Even though we’re younger as a country, we’ve had time for that to happen.

You mean, listening to the science and actively working in tandem with that science works? Who knew?
