We’re all following the same pattern, the wealth distribution got completely fucked during covid and it hasn’t slowed down ever since. We’re just 5-10 years after you, but I’m scared of the direction especially the UK have made and no proper parties seems to be willing to dismantle the elites yet.

Capitalism will always make wealth trickle upwards, unless you either tax wealth harder than yields or taxes death to oblivion. Personally I’m in favour of 100% inheritance tax after the first 400 thousand euroes, as that’s the most feasible way to transition into a liberal merit based society rather than a nepotistic society based upon how wealthy your parents are which is dominating everywhere today - Including my beloved Denmark.

Families is actually usually the reason for people to push for this, as having one parent for sending the child off and one for picking them up is often necessary if both parents wants to work full time

So one goes like 6 to 14 and the other does their 8 to 16 shenanigans

The problem is the DNC is stacked against the people and have largely become a controlled opposition.

Both parties represent Silicon Valley billionaires, albeit the Republican ones are murkier. Neither party is clean.

If y’all want to be taken serious, you need a new legitimately social democratic party. Social democratic reforms, such as paid healthcare, schooling and more paid weeks off a year are widely supported among the American voters, yep they’re even favourable among Republican voters.

But no one offers them anything but whatever their favourite billionaire asks of them

Eric or Barron?

Nah, they’ll kill Donald and resurrect him to run again

No no, he’d just need to gain 100 pounds first

There’s a pretty big viewerbase of toddlers, that’s not the Mr Beast territory. That’s the unboxing toys kinds of videos, somewhat due to them almost being incapable of leaving a loop

Is this like flying super kids, just with adults instead?

Yeah people would watch jumping gymnastics

But for 5k a day.. Yeah, I’d waste three months of my life for that kind of money

It’s pretty common for long haul routes to feature chatter, the chatter goes up exponentially if something goes south. As we’d then have a shared experience of sitting in queue on the highway together

Yep, xenophobia went up globally following the financial crisis of ’08.

Sure America was the big trigger, but no country did anything to guard themselves from the risk ongoing at the time - And in Europe mena immigrants was the bogeyman written about in the media…

I believe the games which are openeded and only have whatever goals you set yourself, such as Paradox Map games or Cities Skylines are contenders for rarest achievements as well.

Especially when they have updates and new achievements added as time passes.

For Crusader Kings three as an example, most people can probably found the Dai Viet Empire - But only 0.3% of players has the achievement

Or that we were children with gameboys

Although simulations agree with you, that LLM powered agentic frameworks are more efficient than human CEOs at optimising a company. They’re also incapable of feelings, making the board of directors fire them in the majority of simulations, for being too cynical

Replacing CEOs with agentic LLMs, is not a benefit for the workers. Far from it, unless you prefer an openly psychopathic CEO

I think it would be a pretty good joke if they made the combat of the next souls game turn based. Still monstrously difficult, release the game on an April 1st and have the entire gaming subset of players switch their stances

I unironically think Gary is going to feature Binface in an episode if he’s elected as a MP, it would make numbers skyrocket and Binface is able to be serious while cracking jokes

There’s a lot of jackets in November with 20° weather, at least in Melbourne - I got so many chuffed looks for wearing a T-shirt in cloudy weather

There’s an overweight of outcasts in gaming spaces, which is why queer people are incredibly overrepresented. Both among developers, players and in games themselves

But for the same reasons, you’ll find gaming related echo chambers that funnel people into hate filled ideology such as incel culture. A different kind of outcasts.

Sure gaming have become quite mainstream and you can find almost any sub group who games. But most “normies” games less than the outcasts, as they don’t need the escapism it allows for.

Within the more “normal people” group, there’s also variations. Some allow for hatred to exist within the communities they act within, some don’t, some allow for queer safe spaces others turn around the second they see it.

It’s a nuanced topic, which could turn into paragraph after paragraph. But outcasts are overrepresented within gaming. Especially rural outcasts, as they aren’t able to find a physical group to mirror themselves in

America voting in a woman and a latina at the same time? That’s the cope y’all need

Being a champion of establishment is the biggest self own in those states, both deep red and blue states.

Nobody want a status quo, when the status quo means everything is getting worse around them. Between status quo or a hail Mary, they choose a hail Mary as it’s better than consistently downgrading

The thing is contamination pollutes upwards, so if leafy greens have 1 mg of radiation per daily intake. The meat from herbivores would be something like ten times that amount and carnivores would be ten times the contamination of herbivores.

We’re seeing this effect with micro plastics and fish, the higher up in the food chain a fish is, the more micro plastics they have
