My favorite part of Titanic is when she goes "I'll never let go" and approximately 4 seconds later not only lets go but tosses Leo into the water. Yeet!
Think about the gigachad meme. The neckbeards didn't complain about the overly masculine man, they made him their King! "Oh great gigachad! Though we are woefully weak and fat and ugly and have neckbeards, we shall make you our king, so that we might strive towards the excellence you have modeled for us!"

Thing is, if the game isn't attractive to look at then it's going to have to rely on its gameplay.
For the most part, gameplay sucks today compared to even 10 years ago. So if I want to buy a game, why wouldn't I buy a game from 10 years ago?
I guess the answer turns out to be... Almost every game that I bought in the last 5 years is from 10 years ago!
So it's really simple, they don't need to make games that appeal to me at all. They can go on making completely unappealing games with bad gameplay and annoying story and ugly graphics, and I'll continue to not buy them, win win.

You have to admit it's kind of funny.
"Can you give all of us the wages we are literally required to receive by law?"
"The best we can do is promoting different sexuality in high schools in Florida"
I think it goes to show that the sort of orthodox performative leftism of megacorps like Disney serves them very well by placing them into this strange box of being "allies" despite being the exact corrupt oligopolies that the left is supposed to oppose. You can have all your gay sex stuff, but you better not expect to get paid for all the time you work.

This is what's called a girl moment.
Those who are well versed in the girl arts will understand that the husband made the critical mistake of listening to a woman.
He could have avoided this tragic fate by not listening to a woman, and when she said she didn't want anything for her anniversary instead he went out and got something for her anniversary and disregarded what she said.
It's like early on in my marriage, my wife said that she would be happy if I just bought her a new vacuum cleaner for her birthday. This was, of course, a trap. There was no way I was getting her a new vacuum cleaner for her birthday, we just went out and got a new vacuum cleaner and then I got her something that was actually a gift for her birthday.
It is moves like this which have allowed me to remain married for 13 years.

One thing to note is she hasn't as far as I know resigned her seat, or resigned from the party, she is only resigned from the cabinet.
The notable gap between all the men who are touching and the one girl is pretty hilarious once you see it.
Anything's possible, but personally I just don't see it.
The entire market is already dramatically overpriced, things are going a lot worse than it seems to be priced in, but could it go further up? I mean I guess so...

Sort of funny to think of....
The left: "We're going to start assassinating important people all the time"
Also the left: "OH MY GOOOOOOD TRUMP IS GOING TO LOCK US UUUUUUUP HOW CAN THIS HAPPPEN TO MEEEEE I MADE SOME MISTAAAAAKES"

When I see someone claiming they'll save the world through social media posts, I always think of a paraphrase from my first book: "They want to save the world, they can't even save themselves"
I put way more effort into my posts than any of these idiots, and I actually make intellectual progress through my work, unlike any of these idiots. You'll routinely see me building on previous ideas I came up with or I investigated from others, and so as time goes on I'm different and my posts are different than they were before.
But am I saving the world? No. Not in the least. My hope isn't to change the world, it's to try to better myself and hopefully contribute to those who are around me in the process. If I can do that, that's enough because it's all I can actually ask for.

I know it's just a linguistic flourish, but "The Communist party's [...] czar" is a pretty funny turn of phrase given what the communists did to the last one they got their hands on.
It seems to me like the Chinese followed the Japanese strategy of racking up massive debts to fund economic growth, but it's something that always has an end date because you can't rack up debt forever.

Yeah, you don't do anything with your computer because you just keep it turned off cuz it's such a piece of garbage.
I hate to say it, but Windows has become even more fragmented and broken than Linux. It's like... Okay, how do you set an IP address? Oh, I'm sorry are you talking about an early Windows 10 mid Windows 10 late Windows 10 early Windows 11 mid Windows 11 late Windows 11 or the upcoming Windows 12?
One thing to keep in mind with Voltaire is that he lived right before the French revolution, during regime l'ancien, and so during that time the rich weren't capitalists who became Rich by providing goods and services to other people, they were nobles who became Rich by taxing the productive economy. The French revolution began because the people who are actually making society work we're getting sucked up by state vampires so badly they had no chance to survive without crowding into the cities to try to get a chance to soak up some of the wealth of the wealthy nobles as they spend it on their own lavish lifestyles.
To be honest, there are some extreme parallels with today, but again it's not because of capitalists who provide services to others to make their money, it's because we are at one of the highest levels of taxation in human history collectively, resulting in for example Washington DC being one of the highest per capita income locations on planet Earth.
I don't know, maybe it's time for another revolution.

I said to my wife "you know, considering that most women aren't very cultured (what do you mean by that?) well, how many times a week do you think about the Roman empire? (Ok you have a point there) I find it strange they'd pick this strange French word like charcuterie for food on a board" and since she calls it the couchie couchie coup board or the grocery board she immediately laughed.
One lone gunman is the least of any CEOs concerns if they live in the Kafkaesque nightmare that is New York.
"Rest assured you will be protected from lone gunman so our DAs can put you in front of a firing squad legally!"
