One should ask them if they are historians if they try to define Nazis...

The "fun" thing is that both HIV & Syphilis were both undiagnosed, cause he never got tested. If he caught monkeypox from one of his faggot partners, how many did he infect with those?
But sure... "the gay community is rigorously testing for STDs, so expecting them to stop fucking random people is unfair!"

Absolutely regarded to name that shit with numbers.
Way harder to remember for humans which one is which.

It makes it harder to plant anything as they can pull up the cctv of what the pulled out and put in the boxes before they left.

What stops them from opening the boxes later and putting "evidence" in them at that time?

Strange how she doesn't honor his pronouns when making this video, constantly referring to rock as "he/him"...
But hey, consistency is not something I would expect from the woke crowd in the first place.

Also no, you don't need above average intelligence to be a teacher. While they do go to university, they have way easier courses than the other people. Not to mention that you don't need to be intelligent to get a degree.

You guys couldn't even wait for us Europeans to join in on the fun :(

Lilly makes insulin and ships it world wide. The type of insulin that you have leftists constantly whine about being quite expensive. But for whatever reason they don't listen to leftist's whining in those cases.

The owner also had a small AMA over at reddit. Sadly he deleted everything now, because he was advised that it might not look good for him in a potential court case.
But thankfully archives exist ;)

Question: "Are you worried they might come back at a later time as retaliation? Might be a good time to arm yourself."
Answer: "that's why i got a gun"

I don't know when I last listened to music on the radio or to chart music.
But I constantly find new artists in the genres that I like (metal, progressive house, ...) so I don't really care.

Can't have a cute cat game that people seem to find adorable. They once again need to latch to something popular and try to push their moral panic via it.

I started a few days ago and am on episode 5. It is fun enough and would recommend you giving it a try. Obviously no "my favourite show" material, but I don't remember cringing at scenes.

Teachers also have kids. If a teacher has a child in my class (or +-1 grade) then they're most likely not 24 when I am 10yo.

I'd say most women (doesn't matter how many exist) who love football & play the FIFA games are rather playing with their favourite club not with a shitty women's team.

Not really cop games, since they're cyberpunk, but you can look into the Shadowrun games since you like RPGs (Returns, Dragonfall & Hong Kong) (Returns is the worst, DF the best).
I really enjoyed playing DF & HK.

Adventures with a cop theme might be Gibbous (Cthulhu/noir adventure with a humorous (!!) take) or Cognition: Erica Reed.
They're not the best you can play but I had fun with both of those games.

Regarding adventures in general (since you liked the *Quest games):
Gabriel Knight, King's Quest and all (old) Lucas Arts games (Monkey Island, Indiana Jones, Loom, ...)

Germany had ~2200 cases 2-3 days ago.
5 women. 0 children. And Berlin has a higher amount of cases than other regions.

But don't you dare to say what this implies :)

It should be mentioned though that those are two different tv channels.
1st one is hr (Hessischer Rundfunk, small regional public channel) and 2nd one is ARD (one of two largest public channels).

In general ARD has used colors to indicate temperature forquite some time.
Stuff like 30+°C were also always red (that is basically the warmest it gets in Germany), but stuff in the low 20°C region should not be reddish.

Short example from 2015: link

CDPR didn't blow up after Witcher. Witcher 1 was a buggy mess and only the EE made it barely playable. To fans of RPGs.
Only W2 made it get any bigger notoriety (AA level) and it exploded with W3 (AAA).
So you are comparing a generic RPG from 2007 (W1) to Cyberpunk (2020). 13 years.

If you haven't changed your employer after 13 years you are either an owner or a retard.

Seriously... the only "sex talk" that kids need is "If someone touches you down there either tell a family member or a teacher".
Then around 13/14yo you can start normal sex education (men & women make babies, sperm and eggs, etc...) and talk about contraception. Not that they should have sex with each other at that age, but many people know someone who started at that age.

Don't know about Hasbro, but I have contacts in the (German) RPG scene.

Normally a product is priced 20-50€ (adventure, source book, rule book, ...) and you can expect a 40-50% store discount (so the publisher only gets 10-25€).
Now enter crowdfunding. Suddenly that store discount no longer applies, since you deliver directly to the customer.
Also people are suddenly willing to pay way more for the same product, because you unlock "stretch goals" and similar things. Oh you get a book mark! And a thank you letter! And we throw in a small 8page adventure.
The people would never pay 30-40€ for that. But crowdfunded? No problem!
And you don't even lose the customers who only want the initial product.

As an example "Das Schwarze Auge" (German RPG) kickstarted "Wege der Vereinigungen" (source book about sex & similar things in RPGs, where you could roll for penis length, ...).
~1800 people crowdfunded it for a sum of ~224k€ and it has 242 pages. Retail price is 40€ (which is quite high for a 242p product). The average crowdfunder paid 124€! 3 times as much! If they had sold this book only for the retail price they would've made 72k€, so 150k€ less.

Do you now know why companies do crowdfunding?

Yeah, it doesn't look super shit from the trailer. But it also looks quite generic? I personally have no clue what this is going to be about except it follows Galadriel apparently (it's the only name I recognize) and she goes against the advice of evil elven men who know better!
And blacks. Yeah.

For several decades being law abiding and nice and worrying about others percrptions were considered the ultimate of virtues in the west. Turns out those are only virtues in moderation

I think they are working values. But they require the entire society to embrace those virtues.

When I was a kid my fear when doing something wrong wasn't the cops. I would get a stern talking from them. But they would drop me off at home and inform my family. My parents & grandparents would've ripped me a new one for having the police be involved. "What should our neighbours think?"
Same for dressing like shit or behaving in a shit way "What should the neighbours think"?
And I was punished appropriately by them.

If you look at certain other cultures? Families don't care. No one cares if a kid has been in contact with the police for 100+ times. They are even applauded for it.

Our virtues worked when we had self-correcting systems (families, friends, ...) in place. Police didn't need to be super harsh except for the rare extreme cases.
This is no longer the case, but our society & system hasn't adapted yet.

Also it's cash into his pockets. It's also his last paycheck, because his book will either never come out (or will be ripped to shreds by the public) and this show will fail, due to the ending of GoT.
I can respect the grift.
