@Honey_Alchemist @Pirat_Nation From what I've seen it has a karma system, it's just not absolute black and white, and your character doesn't morph in relation to it.

@Kit_Shicker @JerryDunleavy @GWOTMF The issue is that it's tethered to nothing. Amorphous designs are fine in Seattle tech offices, but not as memorials to the fallen.

@SicklyTheNinJa This is why I want a Witcher game to go to distant lands such as Zerrikania, Zangvebar, Hannu, etc.

@NDRepublicans The morally correct approach is to minimize the suffering in the world, not to "accept" it.

We can debate the complexities of individual situations, but that is the overarching truth.

Mosquitoes should be eliminated

In the future, it will be seen as bizarre and barbaric that this was just accepted as part of the natural order of things, much as plagues and maternal mortality were as well

A tiny flying vector predates upon billions of people a year, spreading disease, and day to day little thought is given to how strange this is

@AmbeRosenvy @realMaalouf Yet there is culture behind not wearing a hijab. The idea that Western preferences are neutral or noncultural, and that everyone else's is culture, is both wrong and an insult.

[Silesian @sil2068]

@TheRover66 @RobertKennedyJc Because it's a practical solution that wipes out mosquito populations.

Why wouldn't it be allowed?

I wish that they'd go further and try to make the little menaces extinct.

@WitcherVerse_ It's possible that after the crunch of 4, 5, and 6 they relax a bit and make expansions for 6 (maybe 5 as well). I know that most of the teams will pivot to Cyberpunk 2, but we can hope.

This is the family of four that was killed. The 5th victim hasn't yet been identified.

[Silesian @sil2068]

@LeadingReport Or just take away their license. That seems simpler, and more fitting.

@laze91 @DiscussingFilm It felt right to me. They were huge war robots some droidsmith had cobbled together. Slow, lumbering motions suited them.

The perpetual obstructionist is out, the reliable red vote is in.

[Silesian @sil2068]

@Pirat_Nation Given how they handled Rings of Power this is a blessing for the fandom.

[Silesian @sil2068]

@LeadingReport That's a bad idea.

"For our 250th anniversary, let's put 250 criminals back on the streets."

[Silesian @sil2068]

@DeAdInSiDe724 @bigbabolat @LeadingReport He secured the southern border, implemented tax deductions (overtime, tips, social security), strengthened welfare requirements, removed DEI programs from the federal government, dismantled USAID / ended a slate of other foreign aid programs, etc.

[Silesian @sil2068]

@bigbabolat @LeadingReport ... Mr. No. In everything he goes out of his way to be the thorn in Republican's side. Why should Republican voters tolerate that?

We want things getting done. Trump is the same way. He doesn't crack down on Collins et al. because in the end they do the job. Massie doesn't.

[Silesian @sil2068]

@bigbabolat @LeadingReport You wrote about a lot of things, so I'll try to write a catch-all answer here.

I voted for Trump, and he's moving all of the major needles in the right direction. We've cut foreign aid, strengthened welfare requirements, brought Venezuela to heel, etc.

Massie has been ...

[Silesian @sil2068]

@bigbabolat @LeadingReport Trump is actually getting things done, Massie is playing obstructionist.

I hope that he's primaried. If he can reform and make a comeback in the future, then great.

[Silesian @sil2068]

@Cortez_Da_Killa @MassieforKY Oh he's not the only problem in the GOP, that's for sure. But he is one of them, and I'd be glad to see him primaried.

[Silesian @sil2068]

@Cortez_Da_Killa @MassieforKY Massie has constantly voted against Republican efforts to reform things.

He's the Democratic Establishment's loyal dissenter.
