I knew these guys and one family who were also forbidden from touching anything Pokemon because it had evolution in it.

Basically, 90% of guys in America who call themselves "anti-government" only mean it when that government is forcing them to let black people go to schools and restaurants.

Also, frankly, the line is being crossed whether we like it or not. We have a gerrymandered Congress already, the question is whether we'd like a shot at winning it.

They'd rather the city die than have to share it with someone they think is lesser.

What people in this and every other dying town in Ohio wanted wasn't for the economy to come back, it was for their kids to be forced to move back to their town and thank them for the privilege.

They're some of the few cultural touchstones that hardcore conservatives are allowed to care about. Everything else is too woke.

It's fandom beef of the form of "everyone in this fandom I kinda don't like is Hitler." Nothing new or worth taking seriously.

Every six months or so, I get the urge to play a Pokemon game, which I inevitably get bored of and drop before the Elite Four. Maybe if I nostalgiabait myself with the Gen 2 remakes I can finish it this time.

I swear I heard about this a few years back, but it might've just been "hey there's a shitload of false positives on this extension" without anyone connecting the dots on why. Either way, it's sucked for a while.

It's true that the ways in which it's an all timer are the ways in which it's a Max Payne clone with Chow Yun-Fat in it. However, consider: That's why I'm here.

Just because they're a vampire doesn't mean they're out to eat you, specifically, right now. That's a harmful sterotype.

Some Republicans will pretend to believe it because it means they can keep voting for the racism party. Others will convince themselves of it because it means they don't have to reckon with believing the wrong party were demons for 30 years.

Definitely noticed an increase in appetite for me. But I think it's a person-to-person thing?

There is no short-term solution, and the long term solution is "build a reputation for being a good employer and nurture talent," which is not standard corporate wisdom.

End result is massive budgets, dev times stretching into infinity, end results not really that good. Or, like Quantic Dream's Star Wars thing, the project dies entirely for lack of labor.
magma (@dspacefear.bsky.social) reply parent
The industry doesn't have the talent pool to match the size of the market. Decades of shitty labor practices have left a massive hole in every company's staff where their experienced workers should be, and in the post-covid labor market the strategy of "hire infinite new guys forever" doesn't work.

Is there something they can throw at him that'd be damaging enough to make GOP primary voters not reflexively go for the biggest asshole in the room? I feel like the most likely outcome here is that it does minimal damage in the primary but scares swing voters real bad.

You could really see this crystal-clear during the "nobody wants to work anymore" panic, which was actually "shitty food service and retail jobs can no longer replace an employee every week and management/ownership has no clue how to retain employees, only burn them out faster"
magma (@dspacefear.bsky.social) reply parent
video games now have enough of a reputation for being a bad place to work that there's no longer a functionally infinite pipeline of new hires, and like every industry that relies on infinite new hires to replace the workers they burn out, they're floundering when they have to retain talent
