I feel OK about it, for the most part. I can say "genocide is always wrong" and not get banned here.

When it comes to fascism, the rule of law only matters to them when it works in their favor. The rest of the time it’s simply ignored.

We are each just one person. We can’t save the world, and it would be unreasonable to carry that burden.

But we each can save a small piece of it. A kind word here, a forgiving of slights there, and work in some patience & understanding for others.

Little things can make waves. And if Six Degrees of Separation remains true, your little deeds affect more people than you realize.

Yup, I got perma-banned for speaking out against the genocide in Gaza. The admin called me a “hateful Nazi fascist.”

I’m to the left of Bernie and I don’t support ethnic cleansing. Reddit is just falling in line with the AIPAC propaganda as they’re a powerful foreign lobbyist group in the US.

Right now the US is basically a two-party system with both parties bribbed by the same health insurance companies. The will of the people demands change, yet both parties refuse to implement change.

Withholding your vote does nothing as it’s essentially a two-party system. Voting for one party or the other does nothing as they’re both paid off by the same health insurance companies.

In desperate times when the government no longer represents the people, people turn to vigilantism to solve ongoing problems, as we saw with the killing of the CEO.

It’s going to get a lot worse, there WILL be more killings.

I got perma-banned for condemning Israel’s genocide in Gaza. Several mods accused me of being an alt-right neo Nazi MAGA cultist. 🙄

Bro, genocide is bad no matter who is doing it.

Is this game… fun? Everything I’ve seen and heard about it doesn’t seem fun at all.

Right now we don’t have a left wing party in the US. We have a right wing party, and a right wing fascist party. As much as members of the fascist party love to shit on the Democrats for being leftists, most of them aren’t actually leftist.

I’m a D&D player and DM. If Elon’s threats are to be believed, 2025 is likely to be the worst year for D&D.

They’re basically announcing “We’re a business, but we’re not all that interested in making money.”

These are the correct answers.

Egotistical assholes gain attention more than regular commentators.

Internet culture rewards the loud, obnoxious, and offensive with attention and engagement. Advertisers like attention and engagement, so they financially back the loud, obnoxious, and offensive.

This is why it’s so prevalent on social media.

In the women’s locker room at the shipyard. Nobody ever goes in there, it’s clean, it’s never used, and I just got off a sixteen hour shift of welding. I was damn tired and couldn’t muster the strength to drive myself home.

I got about five hours of sleep which was enough rest to drive myself home and call out “sick” the next day.

Tone down social media use and do a little prepping. Learn how to use mylar bags and properly store away rice, beans, lentils, pastas, etc.

Prep as if the internet is going down for a prolonged time, maybe even electricity in general.

You can stress about things after you’ve gotten your shit together for a prolonged emergency.

Understand that this isn’t the end of the world, just the end of the world as we know it. Humans are notoriously lazy and selfish, it will take a worldwide calamity before we get our collective shit together and do what’s right.

The people in charge have failed us for their own selfish interests. There’s nothing else to do except prep and make a better tomorrow.

It’s not an RPG, but I always recommend PowerWash Simulator. It’s one of those games where you don’t have to pay too much attention to the game and can watch stuff on your phone.

Aside from that, maybe World of Warcraft private server like ChromieCraft.

There’s also Starbound, Terraria, Fallout 3 & New Vegas, the Portal and Borderlands games, Half-Life 2 just received an update.

No, because free speech includes all speech. Even the speech we disagree with.

We don’t technically have free speech in the US either. You can’t make death threats or shout “Fire!” in a crowded movie theater.

I have 3,400 hours in Space Engineers.

About 1,500 hours in FFXIV, 1,400 hours in DayZ, and 1,300 hours in 7 Days To Die.

Then 900 hours in Empyrion Galactic Survival, 500 hours in Baldurs Gate 3, and 300 hours in Fallout 4.

The rest are well below 200.

Always remember that once you sign the dotted line, there’s no changing your mind later. That’s the advice I received in the Navy from my Chief. This is where doing your homework really pays off.

When buying a car, try to plan ahead ten to twenty years. Most people don’t buy a new car every couple of years, so you’ll need a car that suits your needs for a long time.

Are you planning on getting married and having kids one day? Maybe a minivan. Do you do a lot of trade work? Maybe a pickup truck. Are you just trying to get from point A to point B? Maybe just a regular four-seat car. Planning ahead will save you headaches in the future.

Get something that’s easy to repair yourself, the spare parts are cheap, and are easily obtainable. Some brands are extremely difficult to fix yourself and that’s by design.

As for car internet privacy, I don’t know what to tell you.

My uncle is banned from any and all family functions. He’s an angry conspiracy whackjob, the prototype to the modern MAGA chuds. He was delusional, he was violent, and he would push his insane conspiracies onto everyone without consent.

Nearly every family get-together that he attended, he turned it into chaos, violence, and rage. The final straw was when he hard slapped my 8 year old little brother across the face for playing some phone game.

That was about ten years ago.Occasionally he’ll call my dad (his brother) asking for money or if he can visit, but dad never forgave him for the slap.

LibreOffice. It’s free to download and use and it is on par with Microsoft Office.

Even though it’s free, I donated to them as it’s quality software that I support.
