Oooh that’s a good one!

… Fuck.

Glad I bailed, sad to see this from a launcher I used for years, but big Ole YIKES to everything since they were bought out.

Using AIO launcher now. Don’t care for the chat gpt feature it’s pushing. But when you ignore that it’s just a nice slimmed down minimal utilitarian UI.

I firmly believe the only reason this game is “beloved” is the same reason that iPhones sell just because of the logo of the company that made them.

It’s more nostalgia than branding. I’ll entirely agree that half life hasn’t aged great, but what’s important is the historical context. The games were groundbreaking for the time, especially HL2 with its physics engine and gravity gun. I remember playing it just days after release then being shocked and amazed at those different systems. There just weren’t many games with that level of polish tackling such a wide scope.

Just like with watershed TV/movie/music, it seems quaint and overhyped as their innovations become the norm.

Deciding to keep me at 15 & 19.

I love my life, am absolutely happy to be alive, don’t get it twisted. But 2 teenagers not having an abortion is the original sin of their poor parenting choices

Scott Adams was a massively racist piece of shit.

In 2020, Adams claimed on Twitter that the Dilbert TV series was axed years ago because he was white and UPN had decided to shift toward African American viewers.

That same year, he predicted that if Biden were to win the 2020 presidential election, then Republicans would be “hunted”. He said there was a “good chance” they would be “dead within a year”.

He has also previously compared women asking for equal pay to children demanding candy and has claimed there were “satanic coincidences” in the Joe Biden presidential campaign.

In September 2022, Dilbert was pulled from 77 newspapers after Adams started to incorporate “anti-woke plotlines”, including one about a Black character who identifies as white. His cartoons also mocked the ESG movement (also known as the environmental, social and governance movement).

Reacting to a poll that found that 26 per cent of Black Americans said they disagreed with the phrase “It’s OK to be white”, Adams posted a video in which he said that Black people are a “hate group”.

He announced that he would no longer be helpful to Black people, claiming he had “done it all his life and the only outcome is getting called a racist”. He advised his white fans to “get the f*** away from them as fast as possible”, and made many other racist comments.

Rest in piss.

U.S. President Donald Trump, who earlier in the day warned that the regime would “pay hell” if it killed protesters who have taken to the streets in growing numbers since Dec. 28.

Oh fuuuuckkkkk OFF! Tell that to Renee Good.

Goddamnit the man is a parody of himself.

Nonononono NO.

Child rape teachers are knowingly taking advantage of social trust in order to exploit kids. Absolutely nothing in the ball park of “pedos can’t help it”. Rape is not a kink, fetish or identity, it’s a selfish, harmful, devastating crime with decades of repurcussions.

Please, I implore you to please never use this type of LGBTQIA acceptance language for pedophila. Child rapists are light-years away from two queer consenting adults and conflating the two only harms the innocent.

🎶Why you lyen’🎶

“Again, the US attorney’s office, whoever it’s going to be led by in the future — its not going to be Halligan, it looks like — will have to make a choice in the Comey case whether to appeal or whether to try and file these charges again and still deal with some of the same motions to dismiss that Comey has also brought,”

So the question becomes, is there a competent attorney that would tie themselves to the sinking pedo trump ship in the next 6 months JUST to bring up BS charges against comey? I mean there is always someone willing, her name was Halligan. I imagine that all folks qualified for the job probably already said “notybye” the first time.

I wanna laugh and say he is an egg taking an opprutinity to step outside his gender.

But…

Not only did her son not officially report her death, he wrapped her body in a bedsheet, stuffed it into a sleeping bag and hid it in his house.

But it’s not funny, just ghoulish, depressing and scary. That poor woman, she deserved better than whatever tf we call this.

Gawwdan preventing rebinding is so annoying! Or it’s monkey paw wish cousin, letting you rebinding but the on-screen prompts are hard coded to display the default key.

In a simmiliar accessibility vein, I’m hard of hearing so when a game has no option for subtitles then at best I catch 1/3rd of the story.

Peak Streisand effect. I actively dislike Kimmel, but I watched the video that made the orange boomer mad.

You’re not wrong. State rights is bit of a right wing soundbite.

Time well tell.

McMahon has argued that the recently ended government shutdown showed how unnecessary her agency is. “Students kept going to class. Teachers continued to get paid. There were no disruptions in sports seasons or bus routes,” she wrote. “The shutdown proved an argument that conservatives have been making for 45 years: The U.S. Department of Education is mostly a pass-through for funds that are best managed by the states.”

As always, the question is “States rights to do what?”. And when it comes to education, we all know the answer is abstinence, creationism and the benefits of slavery.

Federal law directs that these programs be housed in the Education Department. The Trump administration is employing a work-around, the people briefed on the matter said, whereby other government agencies would run the Education programs under a contract with the Education Department.

I’m not sure if I am relieved that they aren’t even doing the state control BS.

The actual numbers are so much worse. The 15% overall “didnt know” is watered down from ~30% Republicans. They are lying either to the pollsters or more likely, themselves.

and every cunt with a “he/him” or “she/her” in twitter bio that doesnt need it.

🙄

Prounon stolen valor isn’t a thing. And yelling at folk trying to gatekeep it as such is far more harmful to our community than any amount of “virtue signaling” from those you deem unworthy.

Holy heck in wow! Love the art direction! I’m always a sucker for deck builders, but I haven’t seen one with such a cute style! Might just be picking this up soon.

What is going on with those faces?! lol

All hobbies that don’t involve a screen. I’ve been having serious mobility issues, where standing for more than a few minutes is painful and I leave the house only in my wheelchair. It makes going to restaurants, concerts and events difficult. Makes going on hikes impossible or even existing in parks more painful than pleasurable.

Appreciate your legs y’all. :(
