I do feel like arguing semantics at almost all times steals some energy from the movement overall

I think I've played TLD twice as much as any other game ever, and it's not close. We're talking maybe upwards of a thousand hours at this point; it's my factorio.

Highly recommend it if you like survival games! Or just like Survivorman lmao (who is also Canadian, coincidentally. He's got a great YouTube channel for those unaware)

Stop, he's already dead 😭

The study also said that people with children felt more fulfilled over all 🤷‍♀️

They measured basically immediate happiness and long term happiness. In immediate happiness, the child free group won. In longterm happiness, the parents won. Did a lot of research into that before deciding to have a baby.

Just gotta decide what works best for you and your life style

That may be hard, seeing as all AIs use ungodly amounts of electricity. So I'd say they all worsen the world.

Happy, yes. Stinky, also yes.

Unfortunately, those players make so much money that it moves them into the big club that we ain't in. Not a lot of class/race solidarity there, from what I've seen...just solidarity with whatever gets them paid.

Which I guess makes sense. The sport itself is extremely predatory, preying on young, very poor (usually) black men, offering them the promise of wealth they wouldn't normally have access to—if they just sell their bodies and physical health to the wealthier white men who own them. So they work their asses off all through high school and college to hopefully have the chance at the NFL; joining the league literally becomes the culmination of their life's work.

Not many want to actually rock that boat.

Same here

If that's all that happens, I'm not sure how I'll feel about him going forward. Isn't he meant to be the thinking man's rapper? Kind of an educated leftist type? For him to accept a Superbowl halftime show and not be planning ANYTHING would make so much of his work and messaging become hollow to me.

On the other hand, idk what he would even do besides saying 'fuck Trump'. That would be the weakest, most watered down shit, but you're 100% right, that's the state of things.

Interested to see if Kendrick is gonna have ANYTHING to say about the state of things at his performance at the halftime show.

I get mine in bulk at Costco so I never run out

If anyone is looking for something specific to preserve, consider Our Bodies, Ourselves. It's a seminal feminist work that seeks to educate women on their bodies. It's extremely comprehensive, thicker than most textbooks.
