Turns out a lifetime is only about 20 years.

Trillionaires already exist. They’re just all in Zimbabwe.

There’s a story I heard recently that has really stuck with me. It happened in the Sobibor Extermination Camp during WW2. Basically the camp was structured so that captured Jews would be selected to be Kapos. A Kapo was a disciplinarian that kept the rest of the Jews in line, usually with a whip. A lot of the times the Kapo would repeat Nazi propaganda because the Nazi guards were watching too. The rest of the Jews could understand their predicament. But there was one Kapo named Berliner, nicknamed because he was born in Berlin. The rest of the Jews hated Berliner because he truly bought into the propaganda. Imagine, a Jew… in an extermination camp… talking about how Hitler was a misunderstood savior of the Jews right before he started beating his fellow Jews to keep them in line.

It’s no surprise that Berliner’s end comes in the form of a lynching by the rest of the Jews he was keeping in line.

Turns out Republicans social and economic policiy is dogshit. There are three types of Republicans; power hungry sycophants, cultural chameleons that dont care but to blend in, and then the largest proportion… salt of the earth morons.

You’d be surprised to learn their reasoning if you actually listened to it.

Turns out their reasoning a lot of the time is divinely ordained racism and sexism. Turns out thats been the reasoning behind a lot of humanity’s choices.

What pisses me off the most is that Republicans will say “they can come here, they should just do it illegally”, as if they don’t realize that process can take nearly a decade… which they probably don’t.

That’s because politics are getting to the point where people cannot ignore them any longer. Think it’s bad now? Just wait till the grocery gets hit.

What if we had a tribunal instead of moderators? Actually just in the time it took me to write that out I could see it going terribly wrong LMAO

The last listening and understanding I had with a Trumper was over whether Haitians were eating cats and dogs in Ohio. They’re not serious and I’m not going to pretend they are.

“Ultra-left” in America has boiled down to not hating minorities.

Best part about Lemmy is it actually seems like I’m talking to a real person.

Oh yeah I bought BG3 on release. Now that is a good game. All other AAA are held to that standard imo. Looking forward to the update with all the new specs.

Optimism at this point is delusion. Today is the official start of the hard times.

Reality doesn’t matter. People’s perception of reality does.

What’s really happened is we’ve had our global dominance thrown away. We took the lead because of WW1 and WW2. It’s not because we’re great. It’s not because we manifested our destiny to become the leader of the world. It’s because factories in Europe were bombed to smithereens. That’s what allowed the U.S to achieve financial dominance. Now we’re in the fall.

Last 2 triple A games I’ve bought (Dragon’s Dogma 2 and Civ 7) have both been awful. Meanwhile I spend 15 on a game like Roboquest and play it for 30 hours.

I haven’t bought anything Nintendo in years… but I can’t lie, that open world mario kart game looks sick.

Stress, driving instead of walking, and the 40 additives in every loaf of bread’ll do it

I figure a scale would probably work better.

Here is a good video I watched just this morning that may change your perspective
