This country makes me sick to my stomach. What a fucking joke.

That’s one of my all time favorites. The combat is just so polished and satisfying and the graphics are incredibly beautiful.

I just started getting into Deadlock and that was the last game I played in 2024. However, I only played for about an hour. Before that, in the same afternoon I played Foxhole for about four hours and Balatro for two.

Vacation ends the moment I put my phone down and go to sleep… It was a good time.

Edit: Ah I forgot we played Jack Box at the party I went to leading up to midnight. Does that count?

“We wanted to live. We had no combat experience. We were just ordinary working people from villages”

This is the cost of war. Everyday people going about their lives with friends and family having their time on this world upended and cut short, all at the whim of some asshole putting their own ambition before the livelihood of others.

Elon has a lot of money, therefore people listen to him, therefore he knows everything about anything he pleases.

These clowns have no idea they’re so out of touch with everyday Americans

Remember folks, the company reps you interact with are generally not the ones making the rules they are paid to abide by. They’re working for a living, just like us.

With that, calling this an “act of terrorism” is an incredulous overreaction that just goes to show how badly they’re shitting their pants right now.

I’ve seen so many terrible takes already. I made the mistake of looking at a Reddit thread on the announcement. They’re not even trying to be subtle. “Female characters are supposed to be pretty! Nobody wants to play as an ugly bald bitch who looks like a man!”. I’d consider myself a seasoned internet veteran and even still it’s shocking to me.

Because America is not a functional democracy but rather an oligarchy driven by the will of the elite.

Bruh you burn that shit the moment you’re in the clear. Even your average armchair revolutionary knows that.

Personally, I think the fact that people believe they need to go to college as a prerequisite to success is part of the problem.

Concerning? To whom? The people who profit massively off of students, many of which are going deep into debt?

That would be so incredibly based. Jesus returns, and rather than preaching to anyone he shoots a CEO of an evil company and rides off into the sunset.

It’s almost like our government only really functions to bail out rich/well-connected fuck ups. What’s new?

My partner and I joke that they’re the BMWs of electric vehicles. I once saw a 1-star review on an Electrify America station by a Tesla driver who was freaking out about the station not being compatible with their car and whining about how it should be because Teslas are the most common EVs on the road and how they’re never going to patronize Electrify America again. Meanwhile, there’s a Tesla charging station just a few blocks away that has at least a dozen available spots whereas the Electrify America stations only have four.

Since 2016 the Dems have deluded themselves into thinking they can throw the book at those who break the rules while the Republicans have been hard at work making sure the rules mean fuck all when used against them.

If the BlueSky migration keeps up the pace, I think it will be a good bet that Reddit to Lemmy will be the next big user migration. There’s signs it’s already started, within the last year I’ve been here I’ve seen the community and sub-communities grow significantly and there’s been an increase of self-proclaimed converts over the last several months.

Already have :)

People hate being reminded that the conveniences they enjoy are unhealthy/unethical/etc. All it takes is somebody else choosing differently to trigger defensiveness and denialism. Rather than making changes to their own life they choose to ridicule those who are making better decisions.

Maybe it’s because I grew up in Illinois, but Missouri has been giving me whiplash over the last several years. I’d expect the kinda politics coming out of there from Florida, not a Midwestern state.
