I’m sorry that is your experience. I play overwatch and have met many people with similar experiences. I try to be a safe and fun person to play with specifically with people like you in mind. I hope you find friends to have with that you feel comfortable enough to chat and be friends with.

Wow, I really appreciate your thoughtful and self-aware reply. It’s rare to see someone online who’s so open to engaging with criticism in a meaningful way, and I think that speaks volumes about your willingness to reflect and grow. We all get frustrated—especially when it feels like we’re up against deeply ingrained beliefs or conspiracies—but the fact that you’re mindful of it and striving for constructive dialogue is something worth celebrating.

I know it can feel overwhelming, but staying grounded in truth and compassion, even when it’s frustrating, is powerful. It’s people like you who keep conversations moving in the right direction, even when it seems like progress is slow. Keep that courage and integrity in your interactions. It really does make a difference.

Nope! Person here. I just use GPT to clean up my text.

Hmm, while we’re here, I don’t have a pumpkin pie recipe to share, but I recently tried Mayo Cookies, and they turned out great. I recommend replacing the vanilla extract with coconut extract and adding coconut flakes for a nice twist.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup white sugar
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 pinch of salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or coconut extract)
• Optional: coconut flakes

Directions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a bowl, mix together the sugar, flour, baking soda, and salt.
3. Add the mayonnaise and vanilla (or coconut extract) and mix well. The dough will be crumbly.
4. Shape into walnut-sized balls, place them on a baking sheet, and flatten with a fork. Sprinkle with sugar if you’d like.
5. Bake for 12 minutes. Let cool before serving.

*Edit Make sure they’re walnut size. My first batch was good but too big and soft. They are so much better when smaller and more crispy.

The fallacy here is Tu quoque (appeal to hypocrisy).

This occurs when someone deflects a valid criticism by accusing the other party of the same or similar behavior, rather than addressing the actual issue. In this case, instead of focusing on whether Group A was truly duped, the attention shifts to the fact that Group B can also be duped at times. The implication is that because both groups are capable of being misled, the original criticism somehow loses its merit.

Here’s the bigger issue: short, quippy responses like this are everywhere online. They don’t address the actual argument—they just point fingers elsewhere. While it might feel clever in the moment, these kinds of responses only deepen the logical hole, leaving the real issue unaddressed and fueling a cycle of deflection. Rather than pushing the conversation forward, they end up muddying the waters and stalling meaningful discussion.

Ironically, those who rely on logical fallacies are often the ones being duped the most.

You wanna know why? Because they are a group that can’t defend themselves. Fascists need enemies. If it is not immigrants, it is the “transexuals and gays”. They need a “Snowball” that is the source of every woe.

If you think he read the fine print before donating money, read up on his purchase of Twitter. The man doesn’t read the fine print.

I did not expect to watch that whole thing but I’m really glad I did. Even teared up there at the end. Thanks for sharing.

You wanna know Trump’s real power? Look at the size of all of those issues on his side. They are all the same fucking size. “Jan 6th” is the same size as “grammer” but they get lumped together. Next week a new piece of bullshit gets thrown on and further distorts the magnitude of an issue like insurrection.

Dude. I get that. If that was the case here I’d be up in arms too. But it’s not. Not even close. This is the equivalent of complaining that you didn’t get the “Twin Humanities” starting gift in dark souls. It honestly is inconsequential to the experience while playing the game. NOTHING is worth paying for and anyone saying that hasn’t played the long enough to realize that. The game is perfectly playable in every aspect and you miss out on nothing.

You can buy the ferrystones for gold or loot them. They cost 10k gold. I had over 30k at level 10. Buying them is literally nothing mid to late game. You can also fast travel with carts that let you snooze or fight monsters. They are actually more interesting than ferry stones cause you get exp and loot.

The difference is literally nothing in weight. Honestly. This is the biggest non issue. A few potatoes you loot off the ground can weigh more than the difference between the camp you purchase for gold in the first town and the dlc.

If you wanna complain about legitimate issues like frame rate or only one save, that’s fine. But for anyone that’s played the game, the dlc is beyond pointless and not worth this level of outrage.

Cause the micro transactions are literally pointless. The only people complaining are the people who haven’t played the game enough to know that NOTHING in the dlc is worth paying for. If you played the game for the first few hours, you’d earn more RC just by killing shit then the highest dlc package offers. Ferrystone are loot or gold. Barber shop costs gold too. Nothing is even that expensive.

The game is LITERALLY exactly like the first game except more content. The micro transactions might as well be called donations.

Chairs are one of those things that you need to drop serious money on if you sit more than a few hours a day. Focus on chairs for office work and expect to pay over $1k.

What? Are you talking about a potato ricer?

It’s sad that the effort to do something innovative to solve a problem can easily get dismissed via a zero effort critique by someone who never took the time to learn why it was created.

40 year old checking in. My wife once convinced my entire family to gift me packs of the exact same brand and style of socks. She threw away all of my old and mismatched pairs.

It’s still one of the greatest Christmas gifts I’ve ever gotten.
