After all, that is a privilege reserved for politicians.

Would you say Charlie's proposal was... shot down?

I could probably recite Bill Wurtz's "History of the entire world i guess". And go into some more detail if someone asked.

I can't even make the most explicit Gacha hating post without you guys saying how yours is the one, the special one that's good.

I hate the concept. They are designed to obfuscate how much money and time you spend on them with different currencies that don't feel like real money. They are dark pattern after dark pattern, trying to get you to look at the shop every time you boot up, and entice you with limited offers every chance they get. And this all is then defended by well meaning people like you and me with "Well, you can play for free if you grind hard".

And when I look up if the different in-game currency thing applies to this game, I find out I have heard of Limbus company as the Korean one that got a "radical feminist" artist fired because a swimsuit didn't reveal enough skin for the fanbase's liking.

You misunderstood my comment. Fuck off with your recommendation.

Gacha.

For most anything else, I can simply chalk it up as a difference in tastes when I don't like the gameplay, or art style, or whatever. Even those shitty horror games for babies I despise are perhaps fun if you dive into the lore at the right age, who knows. I certainly have obsessed for less than mediocre games.

But no one likes gacha, or at least should like it. It's gambling marketed to kids, preying on the people without impulse control. No "you can spend 2 hours of your life every day on this and save up 2$ in currency" is changing that, in fact that is even worse.

And yet they give hoyoverse a pass for their series, because everything around it is so high quality. Open your fucking eyes! Games are not supposed to punish you for not playing!

But of course, no accusation without confession, I am quite fond of the yugioh simulator, and used to defend it the same way. I try to resolve this double standard by doing what I feel they should do: Never gush about it, only mention it in shame, and always warn people to not pick it up.

Well, I don't expect you to know this, but police are actually not supposed to punch protestors. Or anyone else, really. Hope this helps 🤗!

There was a second punch a few seconds after, but this article's video didn't show it.

If you really wanted to express that this goes both ways:

In the post, it's "meanwhile, they're just some guy". Why not say "they're just some girl" instead on bashing on single mothers?

A AAA-battery to AA-adapter. I randomly had 50 of the smaller ones lying around, so it really came in handy.

Can't share a link, but there should be dozens of this kind of model on any site. "Can't", because the model I grabbed was definitely among the worse ones.

The last time a country was suspected of breaking the non-proliferation treaty, it was pre-emptively attacked with thousands of civilians dead and injured, and our European leaders said how justified that attack was.

But I'm sure going back on that will work just fine for us.

"forced" to play

because the path of the gamer isn't a choice™
