The new ones have like cross-breeding and wifi connections and decorating your house and stuff though…

I hate graphics. I hate being able to see the game.

Some music communities are better for this than others. Metal has a million resources and people from all over the world. You can get like blogs, podcasts, archives of bands, relationship charts, theory books. People (outside of Reddit) will give you a bunch of generally good recommendations.

Meanwhile classical is basically locked behind randomly cruising YouTube, looking for old LP records at higher-end music shops, and music education.

Any sort of folk music has basically nothing unless you specifically live in the place that folk music is from.

I like '80s/'90s synthy new age music and that’s got basically nothing outside RYM and whatever Vaporwave artists are sampling, or if it’s a side project of someone who became a movie or game music composer.

View people as something more than dopamine sponges connected to a hive computer.

You need a more holistic, complex view of why people listen to music other than viewing some people as categorically different and ignoring the relationship between them and the art they’re shown and more specifically the contexts of it. Borderline techbro understanding of art and humanity.

It wasn’t the algorithms, it was the external resources that people were using that led people to find albums that boosted them in algorithms. You’re not gunna’ algorithm you’re way out of mass-conformity and blandness.

Also pro-Lorcana posts, which will anger you even further than the negative posts.

You should probably block me for the next entire month. Come October all I’m gunna’ post about is complaining about two things:

• pumpkin spice things (particularly if there’s no actual pumpkin in them)
• women’s fingernails

Pretty sure YouTube comment filters out leftist comments. Either by posting history, length, keywords, etc.

a total skill issue.

My friend keeps posting shit about the latest Assassin’s Creed and how bad it’s doing, etc. etc. I mostly just ignore it but he sent like 20 messages today that’s very clearly taken from a YouTube video talking about their investors and stuff. Which isn’t as bad as the other stuff that’s a little more specifically culture war-y. I don’t know how to tell him I don’t give a fuck about Ubisoft enough to hate them this much, especially when it’s clearly just fascist game-tourists being especially outraged over this game than any other Creed game. He’s fine otherwise but he definitely got sucked into it this time, for whatever reason. I guess he’s mad they’re not gunna’ make any more Ghost Recons, which I could slightly understand. But I don’t give a fuck about modern gaming so whatever, I’ll play the other 3000 games I want to play.

It’s because he comes off as stupid as fuck that similiarly stupid gamerbros seem to trust him, even though his politics are actually pretty extreme and his economic status is only worsening them, worse than the average dipshit gamerbro.

the new religion.

Kids these days don’t read the manual. Don’t read the tutorials. Not even reading the title of the games.

He’s thinking “I need to get even more woke and identity politicking to defeat zionism”

Imperialist, extractivist, capitalist, etc.

Although there’s not really a 1:1 replacement for “globalist” seeing as the right-wing formulation is a flawed category to begin with.

The UI and presentation are really good. Is there a reason it’s all specifically government buildings?

Country music is not conspicuous. Which is the topic here.
