I hate film and streaming adaptations of books I like. A Song of ICE and Fire? Trash. World War Z? Mega trash. The Witcher series? Unrepentant trash. Unsure how I feel about a vidya about a book series I now like. So The Expanse: Osiris Returns is worrying me. This universe is dense!

Corporations own this world. They own all the politics, write the legislati0n, and have the people that they want get elected. Those who buck tue trend are outliers.
Ann Valentine (@avsolutions.bsky.social)
The 2nd Expanse book does this wonderful thing if having a political character who makes politics out to be a minefield, while ignoring the reality that the entire world's politicians are ones by corporate interests. Still a good book, though.

My favorite thing in a horror movie - when everyone is running from something, and you have that one dumbass who is like "huh, I wonder what they're running from. Imma take a look." No! I see everyone running, I am gonna run in that direction!

Okay, @owlcatgames.bsky.social, here is a question. Having been reading the Expanse source material, and seeing how violent it is, this game is gonna be rated M, right? Gotta do the source material proud.
Ann Valentine (@avsolutions.bsky.social) reply parent
The fact that they want to kill Luigi for treason tells you that the very rich that Luigi wantwd to normalize violence against own our government and our courts.
Ann Valentine (@avsolutions.bsky.social)
Love all the AI simps who are whining about this sign. That tech boot feel good to lick?
Ann Valentine (@avsolutions.bsky.social)
Normalizing violence against the rich? I wish! I wish humanity could be that easily swayed. But no. We all loved it, then it became a meme, and now it is passรจ. Luigi didn't normalize shit. A shame. They want to kill him for trying.
Ann Valentine (@avsolutions.bsky.social) reply parent
I just wish I had that kinda scratch.
Ann Valentine (@avsolutions.bsky.social) reply parent
It is vanilla. Plain and simple. People like to see more grandiose or interesting reasons why humans do bad shit. But the reason is as basic and vanilla as it gets - we are greedy and stupid. It will be the death of us. Then, after a few hundred million years, a new species will try again.
Ann Valentine (@avsolutions.bsky.social) reply parent
It isn't blatant evil that guides that. It's greed. Greed and the human inability to look long term. America has been fostering this mentality for centuries. That greed is good. That greed is right. That empathy is evil. It WILL be the death of us, and probably this planet too.
Ann Valentine (@avsolutions.bsky.social) reply parent
Animals instinctively don't like violence, if they cam avoid it. Better to just obey the pack leader and do what they're told. A weakness, born of how we evolved. Add in the human penchant for greed, and it BAFFLES me how we have survived this long. Probably due to blind, stupid luck.
Ann Valentine (@avsolutions.bsky.social)
I love people who are so baffled that evil people get so many willing followers. They think humanity is generally good. No, we're weak. Humans are pack animals. We evolved to follow the will of the pack leader. In nature, fighting against the pack leader involves violence.
Ann Valentine (@avsolutions.bsky.social) reply parent
Could be worse. Here in the US, we got a vast plethora of conservative politicians who probably jerk it to the American flag each morning.

"Are you gonna watch the Amazon Prime series?!" Nope. "Why not?!" Because I have this lovely book in my hand, and don't need a streaming series that misses things that are much better in the book.

Response from the guy? "Why are the hot ones always d*kes?" The fact that more and more men are blaming lesbians for their personality-deprivation is telling. Another reason why we will never be safe, no matter where we go. I hate this world so much.

Not enough people talk about tue fact that Epstein's list was made for Mossad. Israel wanted dirt on people, so they would be able to do whatever they want in perpetuity. And now they have it. Look at the west's conplete capitulation to Israel, and realize that Epstein made that possible.

Fun fact - homosexuality was not in the Bible until 1946 with a new translation. Before, the 1st Corinthians and Leviticus verses they always cite were about men getting with young boys. So it is actually anti-pedophile. Don't tell conservatives.

So many people don't realize that their issues socializing will be a lot less noticeable if they get a personality. How do you get a personality? By experiencing the world. Example - take a long bike trip. W/ you, your bike, your bike maintenance equipment, trail mix, and an app for shower and beds

I will never understand this about men. They play games that make them scream with rage, and then throw massive baby tantrum meltdowns that destroy their really valuable gaming equipment, and other men are on their side. Baffling. Utterly baffling, to me. Maybe some man gets it and can tell me.
Ann Valentine (@avsolutions.bsky.social)
Just saw a video of a woman whose bf was gaming, and when she asked him to stop screaming and swearing because she worked from home, he went on a rampage and destroyed the bedroom. Men in the comments blamed her. These men will then complain about being lonely.

Yeah, but I don't see a lot of blue states touting that shit, like how that Louisiana politician in his 40s talked about dating his wife when she was 16. Or the COUNTLESS stories about red state politicians with CP and child brides. You all need better gotchas.

I love all these people who think that all this ends with Trump. I really do. If we just get rid of Trump, the conservative push to fascism will go away. Like the naivety of children. Trump is a symptom, not the disease. And it won't end with him.

The thought that in his last days, he was sobbing, wondering where his little girl was, fills me with such joy that I cannot express it. I hope he died hating himself. He's in good company. I hated him too. And now I don't have to anymore. Because he's gone

One of my favorite things, when I tell people that I didn't even go see my father when he was dying is being told - "You should have been the better person." Why?! He didn't care! He erased me, literally! Removed me from family photos. Paid people to shoop me out.
