1. Trans rights will keep getting better in blue states who give a shit and worse in red states regardless of who is president
2. Last time I checked, Biden is doing nothing about abortion, again, blue states who give a shit will do what they do no matter who is president
3. Yeah Trump is probably gonna be worse, but Biden isn’t doing any meaningful reform
4. See above
5. No clue, so can’t comment
6. lmao
7. LMAO
8. Just kill me already
9. Probably better than Trump, but I think the bar for that is 6ft underground
10. What the fuck does this even mean? Also, like, no? Biden has completely ignored COVID.
11. Sounds unlikely 12 and 13 are mutually exclusive. You can’t militarily support a genocide while also being in favor of ending said genocide.

I mean, Disco Elysium had really interesting mechanics and an amazing story. So I wouldn’t be opposed to another game with similar mechanics, or just more Disco Elysium…

Maybe, but if you get to fuck around and enjoy yourself, then why not?

Shadowbringers is the best expansion though, so you should totally finish that. And Endwalker really ties everything together so you should finish that too :)

Do liberals even believe that Trump is that much of a threat to democracy and the US?

I’ve been thinking about it, and I kind of wonder, like if you had an absolute and unshakable belief that Trump was going to destroy democracy in the US, and that the destruction of democracy in the US would lead to the destruction of society as a whole.

Well why hasn’t anyone tried to do anything naughty to Trump yet?

Of course, if you don’t believe Trump is going to destroy democracy, or if you don’t think that the destruction of democracy is that bad, then who cares. But it seems like liberals truly believe that American society is doomed if Trump is elected, so why haven’t they taken that last step?

Probably not, things have to get so unbelievably bad for the value of a revolution to outweigh the value of doing nothing and letting capitalism continue (the lure that things might get better, right?). Things also have to be really bad in the place where you are too, because so long as the facade of normalcy exists (even if it is degraded), then people will naturally come to the conclusion that such things cannot happen to them, and that they shouldn’t worry.

For example, if the USA managed to provide fuel, electricity, internet, and treats (even if somewhat intermittently) right up until it collapsed, no significant portion of the population would want a revolution until after that all got taken away, and didn’t have the promise of being returned.

I looooooooooooooove Minds, what silly little guys doing silly little things :)

Unfortunately she is wearing a mask which means any and all sympathy the American public might’ve had for her is now gone.

I wonder if it’s possible to make these links pop out into new tabs? It’s so annoying getting pulled away from Hexbear, then coming back and finding out I’m not in the same spot I left from.

I thought it was good after I turned the difficulty down to easy. I finished 2 playthroughs of the original on ultra-hard, so I dunno why but the combat was just not fun at all.

Not sure why you had trouble seeing things, I thought everything was pretty clear, only 1 or 2 times where I got lost on where to go next.

Honestly I went in hoping for more of the first game which is probably why I ended up disappointed in some aspects.

I mean why would you invest in primer/ammo production capacity when you just said demand only spikes temporarily and for no good reason?

Same TBH. Sometimes I just go on regexr and put in data to see what I can come up with.

Yeah, I think I definitely agree with what you’ve said.

I still assert that people seem to care more about the risk of LGBTQ+ people being killed “close to home” versus them actually being killed in foreign conflicts; however I suspect the reason is probably because the ones “close to home” are white.

I don’t even think you need to believe in hierarchy of marginalized people, all you need is to not want to see killing happen at home because it’s icky up close and all of a sudden it makes a lot of sense.

Maybe I’m wrong but I came to this conclusion because it seems people don’t care (or at least don’t care as strongly) if LGBTQ+ people are killed in oversees conflicts, but care a lot about the idea it might happen in their country.

Isn’t being under-budget usually considered a positive?

Black and Hispanic still support Biden more than Trump no matter how much they’ve voted.

No surprise here that good ole’ whitey is the problem. Honestly this feels like a bit of a self-own.

I think you might be right, but honestly it felt like the whole point of the story was that people and relationships are the most important thing in life, which was demonstrated when Edward gives up his alchemy for his brother.

Perhaps the whole redeemed evil empire was just an accident born from wanting the state to be kind of obvious bad guys, but needing a storybook happyish ending. At least most of the alchemists who participated in the genocide seem to be very disgusted with their actions and seem to actively suffer from it.

What’s the problem with the diabetes drug? Is it just because the fat person didn’t ask? Also damn, I feel awful for people who have these kinds of doctors, I feel lucky cause I’ve never had to deal with a doctor like that.

Not that I disagree, but in my experience, the little displays that tell you what you’re ordering (and how much it costs) are rarely used, and the worker on the other side often doesn’t tell you how much it is until you get to the window to pay. So if you frequent a place often and already have a rough estimation of how much something is gonna cost (i.e. “I buy this meal at lunch every day” or whatever), and then you find out its twice as expensive, you run into the exact problem I’ve suggested.

You’re definitely right about it slowing everything down though, and most drive-throughs get clogged very easily.

Unfortunately, I see a police car in her immediate future.
