  • Fearmongerers have put a stigma against it. You’re one of those “sheeple” that gets “vaccinated”. What’s horrible is a lot of fearmongerers themselves mask up privately and get vaccinated.

    Sad that we can’t pull together. It makes me think that we’d never be able to outlaw things like smoking indoors again. These guys would politicize it and say it’s against their freedoms.

    Unlike the author though, I’ve never really been made fun of for wearing a mask. I live in the GTA and you see quite a few. In Alberta I guess it could be different or people are just saying things behind my back.

    I dunno man, whistleblowers aren’t getting good treatment from what I see. Two got “suicided” last year from Boeing and OpenAI. The two Theranos whistleblowers were treated really poorly. I felt so bad for them. They’re doing talks on ethics and stuff and I only wish them the best. They stood their ground on what they believed in.








  • I’m a dual citizen from the UK/Canada.

    I feel the same way after Brexit. I felt a huge sense of dread and my coworker said to me, “we work in a high paying position and we’re men, we’re mostly going to be okay. The people that voted for Brexit have just f*cked themselves and there’s nothing we can do about it.”

    I do feel a lot of animosity to any Trump supporter and I feel that’s warranted. I don’t care to elaborate further. I’m thinking of dropping social media for the next six months because there’s a lot of shit going on that I have no control over and I can’t change.

    I mean did Usher, Beyonce or Taylor Swift start up an illegal lottery for government kickbacks?

    I’m not sure but I don’t think they started Super PACs either.

    The entire post of yours is dishonest but the Usher thing is especially stupid as well. Usher endorsed Kamala, not the other way around 🤡 .




  • I don’t think any console that did releases annually would be worth buying and I think you have a solid point.

    That being said, it is slightly different insofar as console games are not implicitly available across generations. What I mean is PS4 games are playable on PS5 but WiiU aren’t on Switch or what-have-you.

    I think most people are crossing over PC/laptop updates with game consoles and the walls are being broken down a bit.

    I think Steam doesn’t want to muddy the waters with “Steam Verified” and everything just yet. They’re eventually going to with an upcoming refresh of the system, but it’s easier to get devs and consumers on the same page with Steam Deck verified and the software and such if they don’t iterate every year.

    What do I know though, I’m an idiot.
