Yeah, as soon as I saw the word "satellite", I knew it was a nothingburger. If a submarine is on the surface, it isn't trying to hide. If it's submerged, it's impossible for a satellite to detect it. You'd need sonar to pick it up.

It's pretty damn naive to think that a second Trump presidency would be identical to his first. Trump may be a moron, but even he can learn. Members of his last administration managed to keep his worst instincts in check. It'll just be syncophants this time around. Plus, the man is enraged by his court cases and is the middle of a massive cognitive decline that dwarfed that of Biden. This is not a reasonable or rational man. Putting Donald Trump in charge now is quite frankly suicidal.

I mean, you can ignore the throngs of people waving "Mass Deportation Now" signs if you want. You can think to yourself, "It won't be that bad". People hold foolish opinions all the time. No matter what you think, though, rhetoric matters. Donald Trump is legitimizing this fascist shit to millions of people. Maybe Trump won't do it. Maybe the next guy will instead. But the fact that we haven't truly put a stop to this is an indictment of the American people. This is evil.

And, tbh, I'm not sure he'll even listen to the rich that much, anyway. He'll ram through his stupid tariffs and he'll attempt the deportations.

Whether they actually intend to do so or not, them just straight up saying that they're taking pages out of the book of Nazi Fucking Germany should be a massive cause for alarm. Like countless other statements from him, this should have been disqualifing and it's incredibly disturbing how many people still support this fascist.

The M's have been dead in the water for a while now; the only reason I have not completely checked out is that the White Sox are so historically bad.

oof. Yeah, they did the right thing pulling the plug on this for now. You'd probably spend more time waiting for a match to queue up than actually playing the game.

Wow, this is absolutely wild. From launch to delisting in two weeks. Yeah, there's a good chance that this is temporary while they pivot to a free-to-play model, but holy crap. Guess the PS5 player count must not be substantially higher than the abysmal Steam player count.

Kids were pushed for decades to take large loans at age 18 because they were told constantly that if they didn't go to college, they'd be stuck flipping burgers, digging ditches or whatever. Of course they'd take the loan at that point. Honestly, they've been set up to fail. This is just another tool used to trap people in wage slavery. Forgive the damn debt. I don't care if it's "unfair" to those who don't have college debt. I don't, but I still want it to happen.

Yeah, hopefully the inclusiveness trend continues.

Then we'd be going back to having the vast majority of games having a cis male protagonist. No thanks. I don't mind playing as them from time to time, but I want a choice, especially if the main character is one of those blank slate types.

I'm headed back into the office today after having had COVID last week. Yaaaaaaaay

For me, anyway, they/them is in its own category, where they aren't my pronouns, but I have no issue with someone using them for me. I wouldn't get upset unless someone is blatantly trying to use it to misgender me for whatever reason. In your situation, if it makes you feel more comfy to use gender neutral pronouns for me, I'm fine with it.

thanks!
