That run killed all of my love for the game. Still haven't played the DLC or sequel.

psytrance

hey man, leave psytrance and goa out of this

I just wanted to say thank you for arguing against the celebration of the murder of children.

You are beautiful. Thanks for sharing your compassionate indignation, I agree fully.

Having royal family members can provide some legitimacy to the insurrections.

Are we idealists with a great man view of history now? Do we think these symbols actually hold real power to sway a insurrection's success one way or the other?

Interestingly, finding that out helped me shake out some of my back in college

Trumpism

But do they support literally any other of our war criminal presidents? Why do you all act like America was somehow a force for good and not terror before Trump was elected?

Seagulls have more praxis than me 😿

What? Not liking politics is far different than actively using slurs.

Oh no, oh fuck, you made me want to play golf.

I'm pretty sad, I used to draw that symbol all the time on my papers and stuff as a kid and have always wondered if it was some kinda rune or something. Turns out its used by Nazis, neo and otherwise. 😮‍💨

Hydroelectricity

Destroys aquaculture. TVA has absolutely killed those rivers, and there is no way to sugar coat that.

Geothermal can't be used in most places (but should absolutely be used where it can be)

Biomass is just burning shit all over again (thought that was the point of not burning coal).

I'm also skeptical of the pivot from using renewables as a decentralized solution and then touting a massive grid which requires lots of infrastructure. Unless your problem with centralization is targetability by bombing.

I've not heard much about compressed air as an energy storage medium, or thermal storage besides from using solar arrays to reflect light and melt a metal core (like Gemasolar which is another centralized solution), but I've heard nothing good about hydrogen except from breathless techbro types.

Meanwhile Nuclear is a mature technology now, absolutely a less dangerous solution than coal (even without looking a climate change knock-on effects, just looking at the effects coal dust has on populations near coal-fired plants), and can be used to meet the base-load of a local grid with various renewable solutions used to meet peak load demands.
