Reminder that while these tariffs are the big news item, focus extremely hard on what isn’t being today. Work within your communities and harass the fuck out of your politicians, Republican AND Democrat. Maintenance will be the word for at least two years.
Yeah. I don’t actually remember anything they might have said though that reminds me: Do you have a good spaghetti recipe? Cause I’m somehow seeing a correlation between people being jerks and spaghetti right now.
Don’t worry, everyone else. We will actually return to the original topic in about 15 minutes.
So look, I am not trying to talk down to you or make you feel inferior. The reason I use words with WAY too many syllables tucked into precisely worded sentence structures is because my fucking brain decided it didn’t want to remember the normal damn way of saying it.
Also, our brains glitch. As in it literally feels like some wires crossed. Due to this some situations/days/hours can be torture. Please be kind.
Depends. Are we also depressed? Is there actual anxiety tied in with that flippant apparent physical lethargy? How hot is this fire?
If you want us to do something with some consistency make us feel obligated or change it enough to keep it interesting.
I’m at a stage where I wouldn’t mind a job that kills some of my love for something, like IT which I do have a passion for, in order to knock out the rest of my bills and build a safety net. One year at that rate would dismantle the remaining bills plaguing me.
I don’t feel it’ll go anywhere either. Flip side is always whether people are having fun. People having fun rarely complain meaningfully. Meaaaning money still flows.
Obfuscation. Corporate figures telling or giving people the option will hurt their feelings so they’ll stop playing. A player who quits is no longer a tier two type with the potential to spend money, so they’ll only do this if it becomes a PR nightmare that affects their bottom line.
It’s fine to ask your team to bear the burden with appropriate compensation on a timeline of hiring to build out a longer, more sustained work week. Do it right and you’ll even gain respect, just gotta follow-thru and be open and honest about the difficulties, while acknowledging and working with your team. Then also be present consistently during this transition phase and either help if you can, or stay out of the way if you can’t.
Problem is we know this isn’t how it’ll go down.
“Own when you lose”? Bitch, we remember Jan 6th. Nevermind Obama.
I honestly can’t decide what would be worse for profits. The mod update is hugely well known.
…
Given the atmosphere around just about everything corporate, I feel they should take a small loss here for the brand and release alongside the mod, or after it, or whatever. Good PR move that should make people want to buy the game in good faith.
The only issue is this is Oblivion. That’s a dedicated fanbase only beaten by the rabid battalions that want another Morrowind.
I’m fine with that. Let them remake it worse than the modding team under Rebel. So long as they don’t stop the mod from being released, that is, because that would be a dick move after openly giving it permission to continue.
Good point. It’s not as if there is ‘No way to prevent this,’ Says only nation where this regularly happens.
Children are being shot and there is a much higher chance of these kids needing this plate than literally anywhere else that isn’t an active warzone. That statistic alone should say enough. This IS a problem and we should not downplay that fact.
It isn’t that we aren’t targets, only that we aren’t currently making ourselves immediately targetable. That said, we do need to brush off our fairly minor defeatism and deal immediately with the slowly encroaching apathy. Yes, the cult idiots will get theirs as they will be a majority negatively impacted moving forward, however we do need to collectively step up constantly.
I truly believe we can make it the two years necessary to set in a rather sizable doorstop. We just need to work together on attainable goals.
They fall in line when they have a common, reachable enemy. As another user recently said, which I believe was wise. - paraphrased: The only reason they’re fighting is because we haven’t made ourselves a target.
The rules are simple:
If a large corporation wants you to do something, you probably don’t want to do that thing.
If a Republican is pointing fingers and shouting blame, they are the ones doing it.
I’m trying to figure out why you’re being downvoted. It’s possible I’m ignorant. However, it was my understanding that for the average individual in the U.S. we do have some of the lowest tax-to-GDP in the world. This is, of course, offset by drastic cost-of-living increases making any percentage of a tax increase an actual and substantial barrier. That said, any tax increase should come out of the top 10%. Everyone else has been paying the price for far too long.
Just a reminder to clump both Trump and Musk together always, and then squeeze in the MAGA and GOP party. Do NOT allow yourself to grow complacent over the GOP just because these two are arguably the worst, or any other combination.
Thinly veiled. Trump will claim the shut down is a recess.
Because this low-cost card also happens to be a powerhouse. Understated and overdelivered. Haven’t seen that for quite some time.
Super strong likely means mass and/or density, which means more calories needed to maintain. Unless it’s some magic. Either way, that and money means you can eat until you’re happy. The only two pills I’d want out of those given.
