@genemoneyman @TheOGM3nace @Youzansenn Why can’t something be both fun and have style / passion? Genuinely at the end of the day I do agree with you that videogames are entertainment first and foremost and are made to be played for fun, but don’t you feel like you could maybe be missing out by narrowing your options?

Isso parece mais você personificando uma fantasia de poder no personagem.

Ele não deve ser ingênuo, mas ele deve ser "bobo" sem vergonha nenhuma. Ele é alguém que diz "minha mãe costurou meu uniforme" sem receio de parecer ridículo. Ele deve ser sincero. E essas versões+

This is the heart of right wing thought; recognizing a problem and making it much much worse by refusing the solution

Elden Ring director Hidetaka Miyazaki confirms FromSoftware has unannounced games in development

He says the studio is in good shape and nobody is telling them what to make

Valve is a "monopoly", because the users are genuinely satisfied with Steam and its sale offerings. Maybe other companies should take an example from Valve and not to be a bitch.

It's funny how we use to tell people with anxiety that "people in public aren't making fun of you, they don't even notice you so don't be scared" and then the internet just proved to us that people will make fun of you when you're in public for virtually no reason at all.

It's quite funny that this dude's historic wealth might be the most persuasive blackpilling possible on capitalism, and yet the socialist warriors do not take advantage of the opportunity.

Let me explain. His wealth is fundamentally disconnected from personal merit or direct labor. He is the CEO of three companies and in the C-suite at many others. There is simply no possibility whatsoever that he works the hours expected of such positions and that the little personal labor he dedicates to them represents the the incredible wealth he has extracted from them.

Moreover, there are several, well-documented claims from insiders that they have to handle or buffer his erratic behavior, and that the executives that actually do the work are relieved when he gets hyperfocused on another company and leaves them alone. What work he does when he is hyperfocused consists mostly, according to insiders, as extreme micromanagement. He self-describes himself as a "nano-manager," and his official biographer talks about his hyper-critical "demon mode." There is a pretty reasonable argument to be made that his presence harms these companies, rather than helps them.

This is only boosted by how many expensive, high-profile lawsuits his companies have been embroiled in by his public remarks, nonstop posting, and refusal to abide by financial disclosure deadlines. How he treats his employees and unilaterally fires people without cause also causes employment lawsuits.

Substantively, his companies also benefit from him lying to the market to cause speculation and government subsidies won by quid pro quo behavior that would have, in better times, been considered criminal. Musk causes Tesla and SpaceX to consistently lie about its products, and he is never punished enough to offset the personal benefit he gets from the market or subsidies by such lying.

His wealth is an illusion driven by retail investor enthusiasm based on these lies, market expectations based on his lies and the fact that he has yet to seriously pay for lying, and pay packages approved by boards stacked with flunkies that cannot articulate how he can possibly do enough work as the CEO of three companies and executive of half a dozen others to justify his intensely bloated pay packages. He receives that pay even when his companies are not profitable, which has led to constant shareholder lawsuits.

If there was a poster boy of American Capitalism, it is him. He represents everything wrong with the reality of how the system works, and how lying and anticompetitive behavior is not adequately curbed.

My daughter’s (4th grade) teacher paid out of her own pocket for my daughter’s class to have a “fun” last field trip because of budget cuts in the school system. On a teacher’s salary. Because she loves her students. Tracy should eat shit, maybe.

@financedystop This isnt a part of life, this is the result of having a society that doesnt value community or individual experiences. This shit aint life at all

[onion person @CantEverDie]

it continuously stuns me how rightwingers don't know how anything works at all on a systematic level so they assume nothing should be done about anything ever

[Rainbow Toffees @RainbowToffees]

The Star of David was used by the Nazis to identify Jewish people, while the pink triangle was used to mark those persecuted for being homosexual. At the time, homosexuality was criminalised in Germany, and many of the Allied countries that liberated the concentration camps including Great Britain also had laws that criminalised gay people. As a result, some survivors who were freed from Nazi camps continued to face discrimination, prosecution, and imprisonment after the war. The pink triangle was later reclaimed by the LGBT community as a symbol of remembrance, resistance, and pride, particularly in recognition of those who suffered persecution because of their sexual orientation or gender identity.

[ani @anaisbetts]

I don't think a lot of people know or realize this - not only were Queer people victims of the Holocaust, when everyone else was freed, Queer people were *re-imprisoned*

Imagine what that must have felt like.
