The conspiracy that no one wants to acknowledge is that we’re moving towards a country that is privately owned by a handful of billionaires.
We’re already there. Their prized pig already swindled the uneducated voters, and their “brave opposition” fulfilled their role by constantly seeking failure. The U.S. was sold in 2010. It’s been owned for so long that the masks can start coming off now.
Yeah, but might as well have him in a cell for those months than free. What else are the courts going to do until January.
honestly at this point, why even use real numbers? Just ask for a bazillion rubles, it’s about as likely as 2 undecillion.
Modern WoW at least seems to be moving in a good direction, though I haven’t personally played since BFA. At least we now have official vanilla servers if you want to play the “good” WoW.
I feel big fear and trepidation at the shout-out to Warcraft: Orcs and Humans though. Hope we’re not getting another WC3 Reforged situation.
I mean the clear and obvious answer is that the Democratic Party didn’t plan for shit. Their plan was running Biden again with their only platform being “We’re Not Trump.” In the years since January 6th, they’ve done nothing to safeguard our democracy, while Republicans have fervently planned for a coup.
I mean, the massive number of racists who are currently trying to elect a fascist would disagree, and I think many minority groups would disagree that there haven’t been problems in the very recent past.
Certainly, the fault lies in the racists, but we can’t pretend that is not a problem directly caused by having an ethnically diverse country. It’s one that we’ll need to find a solution for, because otherwise we’ll always have a group who is willing to burn democracy to the ground because they hate people who have a different skin color.
I mean, I don’t want to be too rude but look at the European democracies who are typically praised in contrast to the U.S. Their populations have been significantly more ethnically homogenous, and only recently have they begun to deal with significant immigrant populations of differently colored peoples. How have they done? Immediate rise of far-right groups and tons of anti-immigrant propoganda.
I’m not claiming the Greeks were right, I think they had a small-minded view of what diversity could bring them, but it is an interesting observation.
That honestly is being too generous. I’d say it feels like an incomplete mod, because I usually have to add a mod to actually make the settlement system worth interacting with.
Of course they look them in the eyes! It helps them aim for the head!
Cool, now I can try and remember to get fully migrated to Linux before October next year.
because 30% is an impossible amount to spend on housing anyway. If rent costs 50% of your income, then “only” spending 40% of your income on a mortgage payment is a massive step up. You’re also quite a bit less likely to have your mortgage payment suddenly increase year after year in the way that rent hikes, so getting into a slightly expensive mortgage early can pay dividends later if your wages increase annually.
I don’t work with patients, and my area of research doesn’t have much overlap with psychopathy or schizotypal behavior thankfully. My research subjects are screened to try and exclude people with those traits beforehand. I’ve known colleagues that have spent some time working for prison populations though, so if your question is whether I think this particular girl is beyond saving, not even close. Some of the stories my colleagues have told me about patients they had at prison, patients that scared them even when an armed guard was present, those patients don’t typically feel remorseful for what they’ve done or even acknowledge it was wrong. It seems like in this case, the girl got wrapped up in a fantasy that was encouraged when she was young by her friend, and nobody was there to intervene and push her back to reality. It’s just a sad tragedy. If anything, I’d be more worried about her succumbing to depression due to guilt.
Psychologist here, depends on what you mean by treated. Most mental illnesses aren’t like a cold where you’re able to take some medication and get rid of it, they’re more like a chronic back injury that you learn to manage. For most people, some combination of therapy and chemical treatment is sufficient to allow them to live a life where their mental health is managed. There are people whom chemical treatment doesn’t work on, sometimes because of unhealthy brain chemistry, and who are unwilling or unable to participate in therapy. Unfortunately for these people, there’s not much that can be done for them short of a miracle.
No, the same group will praise Russia for being strong and their citizens being in line, and will say something incredibly racist about China. These people aren’t informed enough to have opinions about the police-states of other countries, and the talking heads at Fox News don’t vomit one into their mouths.
Orwell’s writings were inspired by what he had experienced in Burma and Spain. The issue isn’t that he was particularly prescient, it’s that nothing has changed.
Besides, of the two dystopian novels, we’re much closer to Brave New World.
Yeah, they think it’s a sign that “too many gays” are now in Florida, and God has to punish the sodomites.
Trying to get Florida Republicans to do any amount of introspection would be like trying to teach an ant to play basketball.
It actually is just another open-world action game with crafting elements, they may have been rare once but now they’re a dime a dozen.
Just pirate anything Sony puts out. This shit makes it clear that it’s not worth giving them a single dollar. And if we’re being really honest, all their games are super generic and very mid, you can just ignore them as a developer completely and you won’t miss out on anything.
How would you even collect? Better yet, can you collect both this bounty and the $150,000 “posted” by his would-be assassin?
god could they just do one thing right with this franchise? Thanks for falling on the sword for us, guess I’ll have to hold onto my pirated copy of OG Warcraft 3, since I can’t download the one I legally own.
