It’s all ‘pasta’ in my house. Including the spaghetti.

Of course it doesn’t. It only applies to murder - you know, the thing black people and minorities do - not heroic acts in the line of duty, like cops and ICE do, or unfortunate accidents and self-defense, like white republicans commit.

If they didn’t want to over hype or give false hope on development for the game, maybe they shouldn’t have hyped the game off the back of their first game more than 6 years too early, idiotic choice imo.

Hey, just in case you’re unaware, they kickstarted the original Hollow Knight, and one of the stretch goals (which was met) was a second playable character (Hornet) as a DLC that backers would get for free. While they were making that DLC, the scope just expanded to the point of it being an entire standalone game (Silksong). They had to communicate to backers that they were forestalling the promised DLC in favor of a sequel; the cat would have been out of the bag then whether they wanted it to be or not. Better for them to announce the sequel publicly at the same time, rather than have it leak via their Kickstarter update.

Pretty sure they were going for this, not a baby bird just standing there:

The X comments - particularly the absolute deluge of maga folks completely missing the joke and accusing him of ripping off Trump’s merchandise - is absolutely the best part of this whole thing.

If there really was such a political party or movement, then they would have offered me something.

No, they wouldn’t, because you’ve shown them through voter apathy that they can safely ignore you. Doing things you want politically won’t benefit them and ignoring you won’t harm them. If you aren’t going to engage with them, why would they engage with you?

I hope you mean that you vote for third party candidates, rather than not voting. Voting does matter - you’re sending a message by who you do or don’t vote for. Not voting sends the message that you aren’t engaged with politics and therefore your opinions don’t matter. Voting for a third party sends the message that you aren’t happy with the current status quo.

I don’t think anyone could argue that Tony is a Hawk.

That one appears to have a CD player, which most certainly wasn’t included in the one I grew up with.

Based on the username, I assume it’s either auto-translated (with obvious problems) or it’s a non-English keyboard and has problems with some characters as a result. Not throwing shade, just making an observation, for the record.

Maybe I’m in a minority here, but geez… I find it super hard to watch videos that have constant cuts during the speaking like this. I’d much rather just have the video be 5 minutes longer and include the natural pauses.

I often catch myself using Downloads to store a very suspicious quantity of files.

– So, I had an idea: why not unite in small groups of interests to share knowledge and support each other in these difficult times? Of course, you can pass by and continue to waste time on memes and other things like discussions and to prove your point, but…

“I have an idea: [vague thought with no real action plan associated with it]. If you don’t pay attention you’re wasting your time.”

Let us all [avoid depression by sharing knowledge between ourselves.]

Lots of words that don’t really say much.

Or do you want to continue to pick fights in the comments and then run out of steam, after which you will most likely take the easy way out and fit into the herd, living in the comfortable illusion that everything will be fine when tomorrow for example – you are led to the firing squad with a smile and respect?

“If you don’t follow through with my ideas, you’re a sheep waiting to be culled.”

You’d be better received if you were less confrontational about it. It reads like, “I have an idea, stop wasting your time on things you enjoy and do this thing I’m going to vaguely describe! If you don’t, you’re just a sheep running with the herd until you’re culled from it!”

Rather than insulting people who don’t do what you’re suggesting, why not spend that time explaining what exactly you’re proposing, and why you think it’s beneficial?

We desperately need an active Boomer Humor community, so all of this stuff can be corralled into one easily blocked place.

The next few books are great, but around the middle of the series it really drug for me. There’s a huge number of characters to keep track of and a lot of simultaneous storylines going on, and while some of them are great, some of them are rather dry, and the dry ones always seem to get brought up right when the good ones are reaching a climax. Once you get past those few books, it gets good again, and Brandon Sanderson’s books at the end are excellent.

If you’re in the mood for a fantasy epic (with all the baggage that entails), it’s worth the read. There’s also audio books of the whole series and the readers are excellent.

The Eye of the World, the first book in the Wheel of Time series. There were other books I really liked prior to that, but I distinctly remember reading that one on a long road trip I was stuck on with my parents, and being just completely enthralled by it. Made a 14 hour car ride feel like nothing.

The series ultimately led to discovering Brandon Sanderson as an author (when he took over for the last 3 books in the series), which led to a lot more really memorable, beloved reads, so that’s a nice added bonus.

It would be amazing if his accusations are true and provable, and that proof was forced into the open due to this suit.

You can buy more ‘favorite game’ showcases (with the Steam ‘points’ you get when you buy games, not actual money), so if you wanted, you could have them all.

There’s a ‘Favorite Game’ showcase that highlights a single game!
