Not who you asked, but I’m in the middle of a playthrough right now and yes that’s exactly it. The deck building doesn’t feel grindy like Pokémon though.
- Comment on 1 day ago:
So glad to see the gummy bears mentioned.
Feel better, OP!

Good old, down-home patriotism where we stick it to the commies by providing for each other and strengthening life for the common American so other countries can’t interfere!
…/s, I think?
- Comment on Vapes threaten to undo gains in tackling dangers of tobacco, health leaders warn 6 days ago:
Yeah but curbing climate change doesn’t let the government strip people’s privacy and bodily autonomy rights away.

Didn’t it turn out he was making a pilgrimage to Mecca and didn’t want to use public bathrooms or some such?

And Ed Sheeran memes.
- Comment on Some secrets are kept better hidden than others 2 weeks ago:
This reminds me of an HGTV show episode where the main couple buys an old house and while renovating they discover the entire insides of the support columns had been replaced by bee’s nests.
- Comment on If I wanted to have a maximally downvoted post, how would I go about accomplishing that? 2 weeks ago:
Clarifying for anyone looking at my votes: I downvoted to help, not because I disagree.
We got you, OP!

For anyone else wondering: The bird on the left seems to be a Brown-headed cowbird, found in North America, while the one on the right is a common cuckoo, found in Africa, Europe and Asia.
- Comment on If I could make hairstyles come back into fashion I would pick this. The 80s were magical with their hairspray creations. 2 weeks ago:
Idk man I like having an ozone layer.
This could probably be done with hair gel though
- Comment on Tech moguls want to build a crypto paradise on a Native American reservation 2 weeks ago:
We probably have different understandings of the word “libertarian,” from what I’m reading.
I’m referring to the people who would also label themselves “anarcho-capitalists,” as the literal definition of libertarianism isn’t typically associated with the term. I put it in quotes since capitalism by design leads to and encourages hierarchy (private ownership etc etc). No, commerce/trade is not the same and is as about as old as written history itself.
I’m also autistic and have been ostracized for “wrong” behavior. When I say “pro social” I mean mutual aid, genuine compassion and actually treating other humans with respect for their immutable traits (beliefs like bigotry don’t count). I do not mean masking or “fitting in.” Unfortunately we do get unfairly judged and that’s bad. But - we also are generally capable of finding and forming our own groups.
Sovereign utopia building as a whole has its own set of issues, but that’s not what was specifically being addressed. Socialist policies in general improve the wellbeing of the respective societies they’re applied to, though.
- Comment on Tech moguls want to build a crypto paradise on a Native American reservation 2 weeks ago:
When everyone is out for themselves, the very basics of civilization collapses.
Empathy and pro social behavior are key to our survival and evolution as a species. Oligarchs and unbridled greed are a violation and exploitation of the social contract and bottleneck progress and healthy societal functioning.
The Bioshock games weren’t just spun up out of nowhere.

- Comment on Are you a Lemmy Shitbird? Click here to find out. 3 weeks ago:
My imprecise handcounting led me to count ~85 downvotes out of ~28.5K total.
I try to keep to the netiquette of only downvoting if it’s truly unconstructive, rather than a dislike button as much as I can.

I am fully here for frogposting. She’s gorgeous!
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
If I could afford to pirate games, it wouldn’t be indie games.
Indie devs are usually small and made up of equally(ish) poor people just trying to make a living. That money puts food on their table and keeps the studio running.
That said, I know some devs look at it as free advertising. Doesn’t make it great, but it’s a different perspective at least.
- Comment on George Floyd Murdered (2020) On this day in 2020, a Minneapolis cop murdered George Floyd by kneeling on his neck for more than nine minutes. Floyd's death became the catalyst for protests around... 5 weeks ago:
It’s always some bullshit charge.
I’ve unknowingly used a counterfeit at a grocery store, too after being paid one day some years ago. It was at a self checkout and I was lucky to have alternate payment methods but it absolutely can happen to anyone and doesn’t even mean intent or awareness.
- Comment on I can't believe this is a real article. Just wow. 5 weeks ago:
Running off of their own logic here - tech bros and bullshit jobs were largely not a thing in Bible times, so we should abandon AI and Facebook.
Finanacial fuckery was heavily frowned upon by their main guy, to the point he flipped tables over it. Let’s eliminate all debt interest too, since that’s usury and a sin.
Rich people are going to hell, so let’s redistribute wealth and prioritize the poor, the sick, women and children. Y’know, to give the billionaires a chance at heaven.
They’re also pretty strictly told to stay tf out of government as well, since it’s not their world to inhabit and their inheritance is in the next life. So no theocracy, because that goes against their teachings. Stay within your churches and be relentlessly kind to your neighbors. Anyone who claims to be a “God-fearing, Bible following” Christian should step down from politics immediately.
Did I miss anything?

The weird sepia tone and rigid composition is a pretty solid indicator of AI generation (no idea which model[s] though)

Oh thank hell it’s not just me. Every so often I retry the man command only to get frustrated having to flip through six walls of text via keyboard for something a 20 second Internet search would have easily refreshed my memory on.

I’d suggest turning him into compost when he passes so he can become useful but I don’t want ketamine in our crops.

Who in their right mind is sleeping with a bra and jeans on?!
That said, 4 most nights, 2 if I’m around others. Perfect balance of leg freedom and not freezing/being exposed if shit hits the fan and I need to jump out of bed.
