Then go and do that. I mean, what are you waiting for?

!remindme 1 year to make fun of you after he’s convicted.

I cannot help you. You are having a conversation in your head that no one else here is a part of. You gotta come back down to Earth, man.

I imagine at least some of that ridicule stems from this being kind of the exact wrong answer to the big, societal “why is everyone so lonely now?” question.

It’s a bit like watching a pack-a-day smoker buy lozenges for their throat or something, as if you’re not supposed to think about the cancer.

No, it doesn’t.

You distrust AI therapists.
You distrust bad therapists.
You do trust good therapists.

See? Works just fine.

You realize that costing more does satiate the greed a little bit, right?

Like, yeah, we all know that line-goes-up capitalism isn’t sustainable, but there are still other reasons call of duty has loot boxes and battle passes now.

We’re still talking about ~3 mil to ~150 mil. If the software dev costs for Mario 64 were closer to ~1.5 mil, what does that have to do with the argument being made?

You know, maybe one day I’ll do it again. The only people I would have play Drakengard are those with extreme patience, and unfortunately, I’m one of those people.

It does have a really good story.

Nooo, wait who actually plays Drakengard? I love that game to bits, but I would never tell someone to play it. Was I just bad? That game is truly awful, haha.

Fuck I miss SSX. I need to make sure I have a good one in my rom folder.

Dating sims are absolutely played by heterosexual boys. Some of the weirdest, red-pill, alpha-male shit I’ve seen is from dating sims.

But yeah, usually on PC, I would think.

Damn, I guess it ever did.
