A new xpac for Diablo II (2000) was released three months ago and Age of Empires II (1999) has had new xpacs released between 2013-2026 - those are the only two that come to my immediate mind.

I’m not USian so take this with a grain of salt, but I’m pretty sure federal representatives can’t be recalled. They either serve their term, resign, die, or get kicked out.
We were taught a similar trick in physics - point your right-hand thumb in the direction that current (or electrons, same same) is travelling and the curling of your fingers shows the direction of the resultant magnetic field that the current creates.
Many forget that a meme is simply a concept or idea that grabs hold within a human community and is propagated and promulgated. Patriarchy is a meme. Capitalism is a meme. Doing ‘bunny ears’ behind someone’s head in a photo is a meme (h/t Parker and Stone). Doing cave paintings of animals is a meme. Fashion of an era is a meme. Our entire social structure runs on memes.
I donate regularly to a charity and don’t try to dictate how they spend that money, because I have faith that they’ll responsibly use my donations.
And their venom HURTS. They’re not particularly deadly or anything but their venom will land you in the hospital or at least laid up in bed for a while.

You guys can use €0.50 coins?! Over here in Australia it’s either a $1 or $2 coin. I wish I could chuck a 50¢ piece in the trolley.
And that edit can be as minute as changing a single bit of data that is imperceptible to the human ear. As long as a human being has put input into it, they’ve edited it, and there’s copyright that can be protected.
It’s really sad to me that Americans get put in the awful position of choosing between tipping, which supports the low wages, and taking responsibility for ensuring another human being has a living wage. It’s just such a terrible position for a consumer to be placed in, having to make ethical and moral choices about how much money to pay for goods and services.
They’ve been doing that for a long time - ever heard of Apple Pay?
Can confirm; I was indecently assaulted by a woman around 30 years older than me when I freshly turned 18. Took me a while to deal with the cognitive dissonance between wanting to be wanted and wanting bodily autonomy. While most of them are men, gross people are always gonna be gross.
