- Comment on YSK that Gerrymandering allows politicians to choose their own voters. In many countries, it's illegal. Gerrymandering is common in the United States 3 weeks ago:
I’m curious what makes you think any of his base have woken up? Absolutely nothing seems to be stopping his administration at this point, and the polls from republicans still seem to show very high support for his actions.
- Comment on Mastercard and Visa face backlash after hundreds of adult games removed from online stores Steam and Itch.io 4 weeks ago:
“Face backlash” = about 160,000 people signed a petition saying they disagreed with it, then went about their daily lives and totally, 100% without a doubt continued using their Visa or Mastercard credit cards.
They don’t care, there are no alternatives. They can do whatever they want.
- Comment on Ubisoft Has Reportedly Scrapped A Sequel To Star Wars Outlaws 4 weeks ago:
I’m curious what it really was. They got a lot of shit for having a single mission with Jabba locked behind DLC (there were many, many other missions with Jabba that weren’t locked behind DLC), but I feel that was no different than many other games that add DLC – any game set in this time period would likely have missions with characters that were from the original trilogy, for Ubisoft to ensure that none of those missions were DLC missions doesn’t necessarily seem like it’s reasonable if they want the DLC to be of any value.
In any case, having beat it and the DLC, I would totally recommend that people who like that kind of gameplay loop grab it if it’s on sale, it was a lot of fun.

I really can’t understand all the hate people had for the game.
Yes, it’s a typical Ubisoft formulatic exploration/stealth game, very much like Assassin’s Creed and Horizon. Yes, it had a digital deluxe edition with a bunch of DLC and an early access window. No, it didn’t really break any new ground, but it was a fun game with a good amount of content to do in a reasonably realized game world (even if they really shrunk some locations like Tatooine down to fit into the game). The story was pretty good, the characters were interesting, and the overall gameplay loop was fun.
It deseved better than to be panned by a lot of people complaining the game was woke because the lead was a female who wasn’t a 10/10 bombshell in the looks department.

If we ever have another elected president, I hope that one of their first acts after undoing literally everything that the orange menace has done is to replace every picture of trump in any government building with this.
- Comment on Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 2 3 months ago:
Can’t wait to pick this up for $30 on PC 3 years after it’s released. Fuck $80 games and fuck double-dip releases that don’t release same-day on PC.
- Comment on How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy? 4 months ago:
Exactly, there’s absolutely no way it grazed him at all with no skin damage, no cartilage damage, no scarring.

No one heals cartilage. Especially not a 78 year old dottering fool whose primary source of nutrition is McDonalds.
- Comment on Do you want the murderer of the UnitHealthcare CEO prosecuted? 8 months ago:
I want it treated like every other murder in Manhattan. I want the police to spend 5 minutes pretending to look for the perpetrator, shrug their shoulders, say “nothing could be done, thoughts and prayers”, then throw this into the perpetually growing pile of unsolved murders and move on with their day.
That’s what they do when anyone else in the city or state is murdered, this guy doesn’t deserve special attention. If they want to solve murders they should solve every murder, not just the billionaire’s murder.
