If anyone has been to a gaming forum in the last decade this probably isn’t a surprise. A massive number of them put their entire lives into a single game and if it doesn’t blow away their expectations, they circle jerk each other into a froth of insanity and hatred.

These are video games were talking about. Casual entertainment at the computer. I’ve been a pc gamer for over 20 years and watched forums turn these people into absolute disasters of humanity.

The game is literally their entire life and if it doesn’t go well, their life isn’t going well. And they go crazy.

The story sounds like the usual “everyone here is in the wrong and all are garbage”.

Her parents were wrong, she was wrong, Sanz was wrong, and so were those who looked the other way. This is the what happens in the den of thieves.

Before she went public she privately asked for $7m from him. His lawyers refused and ta-da….here we are.

They’ll deflect all blame onto their upper management and claim themselves as victims. That is one thing journalists and woke can always be depended on.

So the shitshow will be enjoyable as they throw everyone else under the bus and portray themselves as helpless victims who were just trying to do good work in a climate of bullying and constant harassment.

If these companies choose to post photos and information on social media I have no sympathy for the wrath. They know the well is poisoned and they choose to dip their cups and consume it anyway.

It’s a sleeper for sure. I got it to rewatch the sopranos and their catalog of older series is amazing to this day.

Later I discovered they also do same day releases as theaters so I watched the new mortal Kombat which was fun if you’re into that game.

Their rotating movie catalog is good as well. It’s the only streaming service other than YouTube that I can stomach and enjoy.

All city subs are open air cockfights. A collection of useless morons fighting anything in front of them, and often each other. They’re admitted “gig workers”, homeless, and high school students - people who’ve accomplished nothing and hate the world.

That’s why they should be viewed as comedic entertainment and nothing more.

A very odd topic to think about. I can’t imagine thinking about and then thinking it’s a good idea to share my opinion with it forever online.

This woman is mentally insane.

My first thought was "they could get a job and a roommate like every other young person trying to live on their own. This has been common practice for decades. Hell, I did it as did millions of others before me"

Then I recalled the miles of trans media I've seen over the past few years and re-affirmed that they are extreme narcissists who are cannot maintain employment and cannot find roommates b/c they are obsessed with themselves and wholly unable to get along with others.


Most young people: "If I get a job and a roommate, I can live and do what I want".

If your statement instead goes to; "If I have sex for money and live with someone who pays my bills..." - youre a complete fucking mess.

I can’t believe anyone watched this garbage after the jar jar episode.

My dad and I caught one episode on tv during the holidays, darth Vader was battling someone around lava and fell in. The dialog was so cliche and ridiculous we laughed and changed the channel.

These are 100% children’s shows.

Because police aren’t responsible with analysis, they’re social cleanup. They show up to separate and dissolve a terrible situation, it’s someone else’s job to sort out right and wrong.

It’s not a dig at cops but a realization that their job starts and ends with stopping whatever fuckup has occurred so that someone else can adjudicate what’s right and wrong when the scene is safe.

They are the big dogs of the pack who step in to stop other dogs from biting and fighting. Once things are normalized they move on to the next situation and this problem is turned over those familiar with law and process.

Everyone has been saying since MySpace and iPhone that this information will be used against you.

I really don’t have a shred of sympathy for people who use social media and coordinate activities via smart phone. Terrorists with a 60 IQ living in 3rd world shit holes are smarter than this.

Everyone said this was coming and when it did, these people want to play victim. An Afghani goat herder is smarter than this. Congrats, dummies.

COVID doomers are the Lefts version of Preppers.

It’s fine to stay home, wear masks, build shelters, or pickle everything for the apocalypse that’s bound to come - just shut the fuck about it.

I have no idea how we got to a place where every hair brained hobby you have is suddenly everyone else’s problem and they better do as you want so you feel validated.

Social media and cable media created an entire planet of adult children who are unable to bite their tongue and let people be. They have got to inject their dumb thoughts into strangers lives and god forbid that stranger doesn’t agree - then it’s pure childish shrieks of death and despair.

I have a huge steam library and disposable income for plenty of new games. I would honestly rather do my day job than play those games for 40 hours a week.

I hate journalists but they’re probably right. A TON of games are awful and having to play them in a structured way for hours on end probably really does suck.

Hell, playing video games for 40 hours a week, even if you liked the game, would feel like a soulless and pointless existence. You didn’t build anything, you didn’t form relationships, you didn’t lead any new endeavors, and you didn’t help anyone. You just ran around a fictional environment that has nothing to do with reality.

I have free Netflix through a friends account and outside of Tiger King, I haven’t watched anything on it in years.

If you scroll through the selection it’s all murder and drug porn. It honestly looks like it’s designed for depressed losers who want to watch dark shit and wallow in it.

Literally NOBODY who shows up unannounced is to be trusted. It’s been this way for 40 years.

This was my favorite point of Bernie bros doing their ridiculous “canvassing” and patting themselves on the back for their good deeds. The 70s was the last decade of solicitor Jon sense and they were 50 years ago. Nobody has wanted or listened to door to door sales strangers in 3 generations.

He played with the Twitter fire and like millions before him over the past 10 years, his life is ruined. All he had to do was not sign up.

Twitter is truly a fools paradise.

My life is actually better since the media and internet are total trash. I have a lot more hobbies I’m engaged with and enjoy. It used to be surfing the web or watching tv was what I did when bored. And it wasn’t enjoyable, it was just something to do.

Now I do things I like.

The franchise died with Prometheus and I saw the original in theaters. I’ve been along for the entire ride. TBH, Alien 3 is when shit jumped the shark and it was heavily mocked.

Watch them if there’s nothing else and you’re bored to death but don’t expect anything other than garbage.

When print magazines died over a decade ago they were all purchased by a select few major publishers. Since there is zero money in magazines, they cut all the staff and reduced them to copypasta. Regardless of the title, they are all virtually the same nonsense written by a small handful of writers.

For comparison, it’s like what clearchannel did to radio. There are no independent disc jockeys curating playlists. A machine writes the playlists and they’re sent out to the stations to play.

For “magazines”, they either rehash the same stories they’ve ran for 20 years or get direct orders from the mothership on what to write. It’s all extremely fake and manufactured

I left Chicago years ago but the massive increase in hobo camps was a major reason. A majority of the population has a Disney-esq viewpoint that they’re just tired people down on their luck. Their “street beggar” act is just a character they play. When they’re in their camps it’s far different.

The reality is they are hardcore drug addicts who get in fights multiple times per week, introduce drug dealers to your area who cause their own violence, and they pimp out their women to fuel their drug binges.

They are lawless vagabonds with nothing to lose and a huge danger to society. I don’t feel anything for this woman bc she’s created a cartoon version of the homeless in her mind and she went out of her way to find her cute pets. To anyone with experience this is exactly the expected outcome.

I’m in my 40s so he never really appealed to me. I chalked it up to “new breed YouTuber making edgy videos for teenager audience”.

I believe Ethan is actually my age and his entire “career” is being condescending, shitting on other people, and making demands of them from his computer screen. Whether it’s made him money is irrelevant, there are many ways to make money that are distasteful and anti-social. Making money doesn’t make you a good person or even someone to be admired.

If you’re in your 40s still doing this condescension behind the screen shit, you’re mentally ill. The guy is the embodiment of angry internet loser. There’s a lot he could be doing with his life at this stage but he purposely chooses to be hateful. Extremely immature and I truly believe he’s got mental health issues.

I’m hoping the high cost of graphics cards changes the gaming industry. Once we can cut off the lazy way of “pretty is best” development, they can return to making actual games and not nonsense for videophiles to brag about frame rates on.
