It'd be like food coupons that only take a percentage of cost down only available at participating grocery stories for certain items and you need to have the coupons mailed to you after signing up through a government portal and applying to make sure you make under $33,000USD a year with at least one dependant and a million other things and this process takes at least 3 weeks and frequently you'll get denied for no reason and need to start again and if you do this in conjunction with any other program you're disqualified or they tax it back next year.

It's crazy that post was 2 years ago. I can remember it being posted.

they have temporary and permanent bans, yeah. also it's only their word/tos that governs it, not some law so they can cave at any time.

i think asmongold got like a week ban for him going full-fascist?

It's hard to beat how pleasant the '80s stuff is. You ever watch Lost Chapter Of Snow: Passion?

The current US would do war rations in some annoyingly stupid way that renders criticism of it seem right-wing even though it sucks ass and could be done better by an actual communist government. Instead it further alienates the people from any idea of government programs.

I tried to olay Shadows Of Mordor recently and found out why people don't discuss or praise pretty much any other part of that game. Bland as fuck. It has the detective vision, arkham-ish combo combat, non-canonical story (understandable but ai think they did it in a dumb way and not a way that freed them to make a better game necessarily).

So thanks for not being massive liberals here. Helps keep me sane. Wish I could have an IRL marxist friend.

The silence to this question is deafening.

Also, really sick of talking to non-marxists about politics in general because the spectaclization of it by media tricks people into talking about things in terms of individuals, their personalities, "karma" type naivety, etc. It's not even bad analysis it's no analysis said with arrogance. Like, I was talking with my online friend and so much shit is about how "owned" you seem online not if you actually experience any harm, so maybe the South Korean guy gets thrown out of the government but until he's actually in jail and not living an upper-class lifestyle still effectively winning. But you can't meme that sentiment so it's the constant vicissitudes of "we're so back" and "it's so over".

 

... Mario Kart Galaxy on the Switch3 and languishing into total anguish.

 

 

“Well, the Joy-Con 2’s controllers have been designed from the ground up,” said Nate Bihldorff, senior vice president of product development and publishing. “They’re not Hall Effect sticks, but they feel really good.”

To the 3-5 pain piggies somehow lurking this site still: Do. not. buy.

 

Got home from work early today and could hear playful giggles from the living room. As I neared I could more clearly make out her saying stuff like "oh yeah, I like that," "it looks so big," and also kept saying Mario over and over (mispronounced). Walked into the livingroom and she hastily closed the laptop resting on her thighs. Her breath heavy and face covered with shame.

I asked her what she was just watching and she said nothing. Said she was justst looking up Light Switches online, was thinking about preordering 2 of them for the bedroom maybe.

I forced open the laptop and the video immediately started playing. I closed it. I was so disgusted. She said she was going to boycott it in solidarity with me. But here she was hyping herself up with this E-rated smut.

I don't know if I will ever trust her again. Especially stings because I've been boycotting Konami with/for her because her brother was killed by a poorly designed DDR dance mat.

 

Gunna' start linking to the latest translated GCCX episodes here maybe. Watched this the other day when it was released on Nyaa. Was a fun episode since it's such a bizarre game in general and for the show. I like the art style and the story, although the gameplay looks fucking awful to me. Also got frustrated watching Arino struggle with the puzzles. And the older lady store owner was funny.
