What’s funny is that at some point in the past year or two, I’ve accepted that all the progress isn’t really worth anything, I’m just enjoying having something feed me that dopamine. I’ve been flipping through games like crazy and just moving on when I start to get stuck or bored.

Fair enough. You never know who thinks board games are just monopoly, but I’ll sit down and shut up now.

I’m not sure what you’re familiarity with board games is, but there are a lot out there that do exactly that. Might be worth looking into! There are digital versions of a ton that you can try on boardgamearena.com

So, essentially, board games.

So, I live for progress indicators. Doesn’t sound as fun when you call them that, but unlocking that skill tree, looting better gear, leveling up, oh God how I love leveling up.

I’m as old school as the term “beating the game”. Most games today pretty much push you along the storyline until you get to the end, but I was raised on that desire to beat the game. So, I ride it out to the end, collecting progress indicators the whole way.

I just think it’s funny how we’ve ADHDed ourselves into opposite extremes.

I’m with you completely. I said take the credit for it, not necessarily actually doing anything about it.

I think the police would LOVE to take the credit for dropping a mass shooter, so I don’t think they would say it was suicide if it wasn’t. (I’m not talking about Epstein situations, just the mass shooters)

The mass shooters all have different reasons behind what they do, but I’m pretty sure that they know that there is no good ending for them. To be honest, if I had just ambushed and murdered a bunch of people, I would probably end myself too.

More wise it would sound.

Just tell the AI to pretend he’s a benevolent ruler and do what he says.

I’m with everyone else. Could you clearly define the terms you are using? Far too many references to “this” but you never actually say what you’re talking about.

I’m happy to engage in conversation with you, but I don’t know what the conversation is about.

During the 80s there was a big push to not abuse children, but before that, it was very common.

I have trouble following the words people say if I’m not watching their mouth.

But, I know, sometimes eye contact is important, so I force a few seconds and go back to their mouth.

Yeah, you totally missed the point.

Yeah, D’s NUTS!

A TLD dedicated to Big Black Cock? What will they think of next?

Flowers are genitals

Before I say anything, what kind of cookie are we talking about?

Nah, they’ll see right through that, maybe something more cynical like “Other people won’t get less screwed than you.”

Give it a catchy new name. Never mention the words socialism, communism, or capitalism. Just say what the movement stands for and see if people agree once the bias is removed.

Really? You’ve seen it work on meth?

For weed, just tell them they’ll be fine and wait it out.
