• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump to build huge $200mn ballroom at White House⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It does kinda blow my mind that they were using a tent before this. The issue I have has more to do with the aesthetics. If it was anyone but Trump, and if it wasn’t 200 million dollars, and if we weren’t hurtling towards a massive economic depression caused by Trump, I’d be on board with the WH building an event space.

  If you’ve given up on Civ 7, I’m not sure returning to Civ 6 will satisfy you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UwU brat mathematician behavior⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No, in my experience people like that just end up trolling me because they have no frame of reference and don’t care about reality. You can’t troll somebody with math if they reject the idea of learning anything about or using math.

  Gods I wish I had a top to troll like this

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How much should a game cost?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ideally, enough for the development to be profitable, with a little bit extra to help start funding development on the studio’s next game.

  That’s a big reason why AAA is unsustainable, and trying to increase their prices to make up for it. It’s a lot harder to have development be profitable when you have to pay 5,000 people than when it’s only 50.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 gets its first teaser, and you'd better "be prepared for sadness"⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, the biggest warnings of cyberpunk fiction have always been about corporations consolidating more power than nations. With that in mind, the genre hasn’t been a warning for decades; just a mirror to our existing capitalist dystopia.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Name an older anime you'd love to see make a full comeback?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  My answer to this used to be Panty + Stocking, but they have a new season coming out on my birthday!

  I guess now my pick is 009-1. I really love a good East vs West rivalry, and having a femme James Bond doing espionage in a world where the Soviets never collapsed really hit a lot of notes. I gets pretty weird towards the end, and I wish they had another season to go even weirder.

  they’re very yummy in teas! I’m actually currently sipping a “s’mores” flavored tea that uses roasted dandelion root, I find it quite nice.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hey Randy, I'm not sure if saying that a "real fan" will figure out how to pay $80 for Borderlands 4 is a good look⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly, I found the weapons and builds that I played pretty fun. To me, the plot and general writing is so bad I think it ruins an otherwise great game. BL3 might be the only game that I recommend muting everything and turning off subtitles to enjoy it more, just such obnoxious writing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨American⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My mother believes there’s no difference between the Danish and the Dutch, because both have “viking blood.”

  Americans literally don’t understand what lies outside their borders.

  …has everyone just forgotten Haunted Chocolatier exists and he’s working on it? Sure looks like a very Stardew Valley-esque experience.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it true that femboys are "fetishized" by right-wingers or something like that? Or is my friend(who told me this) tripping balls?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Just an effeminate man. I don’t know if sexuality has much to do with it, but I’d say the majority of femboys are gay/bi with a minority being strictly heterosexual. To be real blunt, imagine the exact inverse of a tomboy, and you’re probably pretty close to a femboy. I like some p girly things, I like to wear skirts and dresses, but I also have a masculine side to me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it true that femboys are "fetishized" by right-wingers or something like that? Or is my friend(who told me this) tripping balls?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think it’s widespread or mainstream, but speaking as a femboy, we are fetishized a lot in general. Even normal people often just assume I’m hyperhorny, like the only reason I’m femmodeing is because I want cock. The creepy part about the right-wingers is they see us as “failed males” and specifically get off on the idea of asserting their dominance over us. There’s also a lot of dehumanizing and degradation that I see those types engaging in, beyond the typical “slut” that normal people do. They want to sexually abuse and violate femboys to feel better about their own fragile masculinity.

  I’m very glad I live in a solid blue state and can go out safely, I think if I lived in a right-wing state I wouldn’t feel safe going femmode outside.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How Will We Know If The Trump Tariffs Were A Good Idea?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It already happened in the past and had dramatic consequences for trade in the U.S., that being “The Great Depression.”

  We already know what happens. It didn’t stop someone from deciding to do it again.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OMG no please don’t call me.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My company has zero wait times and is a non-profit that gives money to children.

  It’s the callers. There are a lot of people who are genuinely terrible and seem to feel like it’s okay to treat anyone they think is beneath them as terrible, to say nothing of the insane sexism/racism that people like to spew.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What would this list look like for your generation?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So there’s this state in the United States called Ohio, and it’s generally one of the worst places to be. If you’re “in Ohio” or “feeling Ohio,” you’re feelin bad.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are we all suffering from "future shock" in 2025?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Just spitballing, but you could track it by number of hate crimes? There’s the issue that the United States notoriously underreports hate crimes, so you might not be able to find accurate numbers, but I think that’s the best hard statistic you could find for racism

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How would you run a society?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  and if the Aliens like it,

  I think this is the part I would become obsessed with; trying to figure out what the Aliens actually want. I’m confident that at our current technological level, we could automate a society that supports a million people. I’d start with accomplishing that, and then spend the rest of the time trying to develop a perfect piece of performance art including all million members to try and please the Aliens.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If I snapped you back in time 650 years right this very second, how would you use your current knowledge to succeed?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think I know a single language from the time, so I’m probably getting murdered because I’m a strange foreigner who can’t defend themselves with words.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows 10 LTSC – the version that won't expire for years⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Biggest one is going to remain gaming. If anything, I’m beginning to feel like Steam Proton is starting to harm Linux gaming efforts more than helping them. I’ve known games that have dropped native Linux support because “It works on Proton!” only for the game to not actually work on Proton.

  If we could get to a world where every game could actually be run on Linux with minimal hassle, maybe then you can beat the drum that there’s no point using Windows. Until then, it’s going to remain the OS for gaming.

  but what about on a femboy with lame glasses that he needs to replace soon lol?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is this called?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Could I wear this around? Would people find it strange if I had a large velvet shawl? It looks like great fantasy traveler clothing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Hopefully Last Epoch’s latest patch. I recently migrated to Linux though, so getting it running has proven to be a bit of a bugbear.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cheers lads⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  People like to make fun of this idea that “the right can’t meme,” but I’d agree with you and argue they’re actually really fucking good at it.

  I think it’s a real shame that progressives basically ceded the tools of shock and profanity to people on the far right. Maybe it’s because I was a huge fan of the Colbert Report growing up, but I feel like satire is a great way to deconstruct far right positions by showing their logical conclusions. The problem is that you can’t really satirize a racist anymore; you’ll get called a racist yourself and be canceled.
