Really? Even in the little tutorial one with the miller?

That is the most Brexit thing I’ve ever heard. The audacity to complain about the Spanish in your country while the British loudly and palely swarm Spain every summer.

Papers, please.

Sounds like a libertarian paradise. Be extremely comfortable as long as you’re part of a certain 5% of the population.

SteamDB says Rimworld, but I’m almost certain it’s actually Fallout: NV, as the Nexus launcher at one point bypassed Steam and so those hours aren’t represented. I have about 1100 hours in Rimworld, but probably closer to 3000 in Fallouts 3 and NV.

Lol I somehow completely forgot about Guild Wars 2. Pretty sure my age in that game is over 2 years of active playtime.

True and true.

Biden’s forgiven the loans that he has the power to forgive. Judges and the House have blocked most of his loan forgiveness moves.

If we can allocate billions of dollars to Israel, we can certainly forgive some of Ukraine’s loans.

I understand how advertising works, I’m saying that I would like to choose for myself instead of having name recognition forced into my brain cells.

Given that in most places in the US you’re required to have auto and home insurance, somehow I think people would find them. Knowing that some NFL player stans for Progressive doesn’t give me any information on the quality of the company.

Pretty sure those are either already dead, or guarding Vlad.

The good old Nazi Germany plan - get your rich cronies to pay for everything and assure everyone that the spoils of war will more than pay them back.

So either you really dont get how things work, or you’re kind of racist/xenophobic.

It’s both. It’s always both. People are afraid and angry and hungry, and that brings fascism like flies to shit. I really don’t want to believe that people were always this hateful, and that it’s mostly because times are tough for everyone. Doesn’t help that you have Fox News and their cronies whipping everyone into a frenzy about every little thing.

Oh well. Now we’ll see them put their plan into action and hope that they somehow self-implode before they do too much damage.

I’m not blaming it on cabin fever or anything like that. I think people are just angry.

That’s just because they live in the 21st century.

I’ve certainly seen an uptick in anti-social behavior since Covid. Whether or not it’s because of the economic situation or being cooped up inside, it really seems to have done a number on some people.

You’re not wrong. We have a representative democracy because the Founders thought the same way. I guess I prefer not to believe that it’s impossible for people to be well-informed enough to make a good decision on these things. I’ve certainly seen some new lows in the past 10 years.

I’m asking for the individual candidates to lay out their specific political goals. The party can continue to publish its platform and planks.

Then people vote based on whether they want to see those goals met. When those politicians are up for re-election, it’s fairly easy for someone to tabulate whether or not those goals were met. If there are extenuating circumstances (overwhelming opposition, for example), then they can use that to defend themselves. This would help hold their feet to the fire.

As for voting ideologically, I attribute that mostly to FPTP - people feel as though they cannot do anything but vote ideologically because there are no real alternatives. That’s why RCV is extremely important.
