  • Sorry. As I don't spend a lot of time on social media sites and not really up to date on the latest slang, I had to look at up on the Urban Dictionary. I suspect you are saying she's not accepting of trans folks. If that's the case then that is indeed unfortunate. I'll refrain from linking to her content in the future, which is sad because I rather like some of her videos.

  • Yeah, I played that. Didn't bother me as much as some boss fights though. They clearly didn't intend for you to fight that robot, so the only option was to sneak around it and I rather enjoy stealth gameplay.

  • I have many pet peeves when it comes to games, but the biggest that I can think of off the top of my head is the boss fights in games that don't let you use the weapons & skills/techniques that you'd used to get to that point. It just pisses me off when they let you develop a character with particular skills and weapons only to force a particular combat style that's contrary to what you'd used up till that point.

  • Spoken like the true, immoral asshole that he is.

  • That's precisely how the debate between myself any my SO was finally ended. The seat stays down now unless in use.

  • There are multiple reasons why most people don't shift countries willy-nilly.

    Moving, even within the same state is a difficult, stressful, and expensive prospect. Moving to a different country is even more so, and that assumes you have a job lined up when you get there or substantial monetary reserves. Then there are the legal hurdles, which depending on the destination country can be downright daunting. In many countries unless you are a top earner with an in-demand skill-set you are likely to experience significant legal challenges to even achieve temporary residency. And then there are language and cultural differences that can make life difficult once you get there. Unless you have friends/family already in the destination country and/or know the language you can expect it to be rough going for quite a while.

    All this would be compounded if you have a family. Not to mention the added difficulty and expense involved with visiting or supporting extended family members or friends back in your original home country after leaving.

    Simply put, most people simply can't move countries whenever the political situation in their home country gets dicey. It's only after the fighting starts do you see people doing that in significant numbers and at that point they are refugees.

  • Well I'm no expert, but I'm pretty sure I just caught the scent of fascism wafting in the air now. :|

  • Oh, thanks for letting me know. It appears that I'd inadvertently mangled it. It's been corrected.

  • In my second play-through of CP77, I played as a female V just so I could romance Judy. It was great. Even went so far as to decorate V's apartments with pictures of the two of them together. So when the end came, I was not emotionally prepared for ...

    ... the revelation that Judy had decided to leave NC and V.


    While I can't say I cried, it was probably the closest I've come to crying because of a video game.

  • Watched this earlier. Her rants are fun. XD

  • For folks in the western wold this may seem strange, but it probably makes sense if the intent is lure Chinese vacationers.

  • Well, considering that Trump himself committed federal crimes...

  • Like a lot of things, the answer is "it depends". Probably the biggest factor I've seen is the willingness to accept their condition and stick with the prescribed medications. The worst cases I've seen all involved individuals who either consistently or intermittently refused to acknowledge their condition and take the meds. It usually resulted in some near tragic circumstances that costs them friends, jobs, and the support of loved ones. In one case I know the end result was fully tragic. However, some people who are bipolar have lived mostly normal lives, so not all hope is lost. It just depends on their willingness to deal with their condition head on.

  • This is a Veritasium video. Despite the clicky-baity title it's not an indictment of democracy. He's just talking about the mathematical problems inherent in different voting systems. YT Link here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qf7ws2DF-zk
