Hey Ma! Theres a weird fuckin cat outside!

Honestly where the fuck are the gangbangers in all this? All that talk about fuck the police and how hard they are and all and there hasnt been one incidence of ICE being rolled up on by the westside crips.

Mechwarrior online.

Free, online “shooter”, good community, runs on linux, gameplay is dated and doesnt get tons of dev support anymore but its still how I kill an evening once or twice a week.

You know what else needs to be banned? A bag of chips having 1.8 servings in it.

1 sure, 2… ok. But .8 of a serving? Get the fuck out of here.

“In our defence he was way better at brown people things than a lot of brown people”

Nah, buy a proper workshop/trades grade wet/dry. Those things are designed to take daily tradesman abuse, household work isnt really a challenge.

2000w shopvac with a 30L drum and the hepa rated bags.

Fuck a Dyson.

Costco has Hotdogs, Costco also has 75 inch TVs…

This has always been my counterpoint for the Nintendo haters when they complain about price. (Although they are a shit company in several other ways) Because when my daughter wants a new switch game if its a top tier Nintendo title its going to be a finished game with zero bugs and zero concern about problematic content for me.

The YT channel is “Renaissance Periodisation” for anyone interested in Bodybuilding/Steroids/Fitness/Dick Jokes.

Dr Mike is one of my favorite people, I genuinely think he would probably be a fun guy to hang out with.

Its also a big contributor as to why a lot of people think HR are useless. Once you respond in any way that could be considered unprofessional you just made it messy and increased the risk to the company of doing anything other than issuing slap on the wrist warnings.

Take the meme for example, now the company has to make a morality decision on whats worse, an unprompted and inappropriate but not deliberately hurtful comment from a manager vs a deliberate and highly personal barb from an employee to a manager… I can see the warning letters for both of them from here.

Also if someone says something fucked up and you clap back and they report it. YES HR WILL SPEAK TO YOU!

If you want to nail someone with the rulebook you cant respond like two people talking shit on twitter. You have to call them out on what they said respectfully and professionally, preferably with witnesses or go straight to HR.

I honestly hoped that the now deceased Pope stacked the deck with an American to call out how unchristian most American christians are.

Fight fire with fire.

Create dumb laws? Sue schools in red states and deep red voters with animal mascots.

I thought of these things.

Imagine the fun lawsuits you could launch over mascots and drama performances just to be a dick.

People who think managers are useless have either likely only worked for good ones or bad ones. Good ones make it look so easy it looks like they do nothing.

Quite often when I’m managing the work floor if we have a good week I have almost nothing to do on fridays. Sometimes the staff make comments about it and I always say the same thing “If I’m scrambling on Friday, it means I fucked up on Wednesday and we’re all going to have a shitty Monday.”

I dont know that for certain. Just saying theres revenue streams that a F2P game can leverage if they can get the player count high enough, Its something Id tollerate from a good enough F2P game especially if its done well, Skate culture has always had certain brands associated with it so it COULD be done organically.

Turning my business mind towards Skate, they can make money through sources other than the customers.

Clothing companies, in game billboards, in game music deals, skateboard companies… you get the game in front of enough people and the players wont be the whales.

It can be done well either way. If its a premium purchased game eventually it will make more sense financially for them to release a sequel, and the player base will move on. With F2P (If its done well) the games longevity is limited solely by wether or not it keeps making money.

If we’re looking at it pessimistically the industry seems to be moving towards buying a premium AAA title, being charged appropriately, being coerced into buying a season pass to play online and then still being harassed with microtransactions.
