Lol. I hate how much this is like 1984 because I dislike people using it as an example all of the time. But between this and the "America First" shit, wherein tariffs are being levied against everyone, the logical conclusion is that Trump wants to close down the US, go self-reliant, and have citizens be too placated by propaganda to do anything about it.

However, this is a shitty idea and it won't go to plan, so he'll just end up with stupid people who can't even work the factories needed to not have this culminate in a mass economic disaster. Anyone smart enough to care should leave the country ASAP because it won't get better. Other countries should be revamping their refugee programs to benefit from the brain drain.

Most incels and femcels do not meet their own standards of beauty, emotionality, and sociality. This is partly why they hate themselves so much and project that hate onto archetypes like Chad and Stacy. A lot of blackpilled incels genuinely believe they are unlovable and will be forever alone — any partner of those people will not be treated well since there's an inherent lack of trust/belief in the relationship.

Not to mention that depressed/self-loathing people dating each other is a really bad idea and results in shitty relationships and emotional turmoil. Sometimes these couples become codependent and then they're together for years even though they dislike each other. It doesn't necessarily help anyone get better, it often makes it harder to work on yourself because of the "crabs in a bucket" mentality.

Meanwhile that lawyer is taking a bribe from the government to not represent Luigi.

Considering that that's something that explicitly results in disbarment, and that an incompetent or deliberately poor legal defense is grounds for a new trial, I highly doubt that this would occur.

There are ways around these consequences, of course, but there would be very few defense attorneys willing to risk their career to facilitate a win for the government. I suppose blackmail isn't out of the question, if they want to go down that road, but that's highly speculative and conspiratorial.

Can I offer you some hygge in these trying times?

You read:

This shift follows China’s diplomatic push targeting the Global South

And you somehow thought they were talking about Europe?

Let's hope that US senators and congresspeople can give the wittle baby a big new idea to distract him from starting WW3 in a way that minimizes collective suffering.

So SEGA and Konami (the corporation) knew about it. Let's assume that. Are there records or interviews (from studios, individual developers, games historians, etc.) from that time on record saying they played and enjoyed it?

Simultaneous/independent invention in a highly experimental and novel industry is way more likely to me, but if you can produce some sort of proof of influence on studios that explicitly iterated on what 005 did, then that's much more convincing than a Guinness World Record that only "proves" they were first (historically, they did barely any fact-checking and, in some cases, you could bribe them).

It also hurts the credibility of the article for it to say "people liked it," and then not link to any sources like reviews or sales numbers. How can I know that anyone liked it unless I do independent verification of these claims? It's striving to be informative but with a "trust me bro" type of approach.

We didn't make a czar, we are changing the title of a position that already exists. Just because Trump is a bully doesn't mean he can't be placated by sweet nothings that caress his ego.

If Trump wants to play a game, we can play too. If you think that's rolling over, that's a you problem. Trump is obviously using this situation to allow him to declare a false national emergency to bypass Congress. These actions are technically illegal under both US and international law.

In a world where lying had consequences, this wouldn't be happening. To expect Trudeau to fight back aggressively against a nation with the most powerful military in the world while it's controlled by the most volatile and capricious politician in modern history is to expect it to rain cream soda - i.e., it's stupid.

One thing that I used to do is something mentally stimulating, like a crossword or some Tetris or planning next week's meals. Or you could read a chapter of a book.

Maybe Linux Lite? It's based on Ubuntu LTS and the default DE is XFCE but you could replace it with LXDE or whatever you want.

Oh, interesting; that wasn't my experience at all. There were popular/preppy girls that played sports, but there was a separate type of girl that played multiple sports and made it, like, part of their identity like the guys did. Didn't really have a name for them, though.

I guess "jock" would work for a girl/woman, but if you said "I hooked up with a jock last night," everyone would assume you meant a guy. So it's not really a gender neutral term.

I wonder how difficult it would be to maintain this - could you even send an HVAC tech? Or would you need an electronics or chemical tech? Might be decades before we see this in a workplace, school, or home.
