wouldn’t it be nice to live in a functioning society
What would be your periodization of the “golden age of gaming”? Mine would start at the introduction of the consoles like the N64 and PS1, and the release Windows 95…then it would end with the coming of microtransactions. So that would be 2006 with the introduction of that horse armor in Elder Scrolls Oblivion.
This is not to say that I don’t enjoy any games released after that though :p I built a gaming pc in 2011 mostly so I could play Deus Ex: Human Revolution.
The US’ actions can sort of translate to those of an abusive single father.
They are sad creatures. Don’t worry about them. Their opinions are wrong.

I really thought regular-ass people would have had enough of this capitalism thing after the pandemic started, but here we still fucking are today.
I don’t bother. Our time is better spent figuring out legal ways to take as much money away from them as possible, not “engaging” in “discourse” with them. 🙄💀
Lift so hard that the world itself trembles.
There are so many redacted things that redacted could have done so long ago, but then the redacted would not have redacted enough of their redacted. And thus here we are today.
They cannot grasp the post-scarcity mindset and that is pitiful. We have the technical means today to live in a mostly nuclear-powered world supplemented by sources such as solar and wind.
A crowd-sourced app that maps all of the homeless people and tent encampments in every neighborhood of your city. Like snapchat.
Adult supremacy is a real thing. While it is very prominent among American Baby Boomers, it can afflict people of any generation. I believe we as adults have a responsibility to guide and protect youth, not forcefully shape them into some predetermined mold.
Frankly it infuriates me when I see somebody of my age (early 30s) acting just like a damned Boomer and complaining about “kids these days”, when those kids are just responding to pressures of a world that adults have forced upon them. The only kind of youth I truly dislike are the alt-right kind.
I cannot speak for any other country, but the US public school experience is designed to beat the kids down until they accept their place within the capitalist system by the time they’re 18 years old. Any education that happens in those places is incidental. They’re primarily meant for schooling, not education.

“homeless people are landlords” 💀
It’s not looking at them that’s the problem, it’s the obsessing and worshipping part.
I’ve read recently that the vanguard structure of the Bolsheviks didn’t even emerge until a few years into the Civil War.
Too many self-described Communists today act like religious cultists who worship a few dead guys, and maintain a single-minded belief in some rapture-like “Revolution Day” where they can re-enact some dumbed-down of events that happened in 1917-1923. I believe this approach is misguided and counterproductive to the needs of the people here and now.
One of the reasons I critically root for the other side is that they have literally blown up redditors. At least somebody gets to live the dream.
Thalassophobia is a big thing for a reason. This is what happens when somebody disrespects the ocean.
