People don’t vote because they see the system is rigged so the popular vote isn’t a great standard to go by either, it’s a product of the system as well

My area is such a strong republican district that my vote is functionally irrelevant aside from the president. Hell, they didn’t even bother with democrat candidates on a local level.

The Halo 3: ODST OST is so good, man.

Hades, although I refuse to call it a “patient gamer” game

Why? It’s 6 years old at this point so I think it qualifies.

Following Iron Lore Entertainment’s failure to secure funding for its next project, former members of Iron Lore announced they had created a new company on February 18, 2008.

and more political just in general, actually

Yeah, that’s pretty much the only part of Lemmy I really don’t like. It feels drastically more political than Reddit did. I didn’t even know what the hell a tankie was before I joined Lemmy.

Who knows?

This stuff just happens sometimes.

I remember Tokyo by Imagine Dragons wasn’t available on Spotify for a few years. No clue why, but it just reappeared one day.

TIL. That’s actually really cool info!

Double up. Assert dominance. Demand to be referred to as ‘Mister Doctor’. Hmm… ‘Doctor Mister’? I think I like Mr. Dr. better.

Boners are largely age dependent. I remember in high school I got random boners all the time and anything could trigger them.

100%. I remember sometimes they’d happen in church of all places. No clue why, but like clockwork the choir would start and bam. Tip for anyone with this problem currently: flex your legs hard and repeatedly. Always worked for me.

I didn’t see much of it except for one burst where Hexbear was getting rowdy with my instance- that was… annoying.

There was some drama I don’t recall the specifics of but it apparently angered Hexbear enough that I started seeing a lot of them in basically every comment section.

Huh? You’re opening your browser, and going to amazon.com and it redirects you to the app?

I’m assuming you’re on mobile. Try using your browsers incognito/private browsing feature- you’ll probably have to login again but it should prevent app redirects like that.

Did he want to be fired without being cremated? I can’t imagine someone wanting to be splattered everywhere lol

Personally, I’m using Win10 'til it doesn’t get security updates anymore.

Then I’ll give Linux a go.

Grandma’s shot challenge from hell

This is so funny I laugh every time I reread it. It implies so many things.

Yeah, it’s possible. It’s not incredibly likely, though, I’ve bought maybe six or seven games from key sites like that over the years and I’ve not been banned.

Just keep in mind that if the price is too good to be true it probably is- be really wary of any keys that are below the historical low for whatever game you’re buying.

There’s not, maybe that’s what he means by ‘in a way’?

Great games, highly recommend them. Not sure they really fit the trope, though.

ChtGT

I’ve not seen someone censor that yet and I was confused asf lol

Yes, but that would just make them a biased source. Not an entirely useless one.

He can travel as a proper national leader to all the places he wants to travel

Unless he wants to travel to a place willing to enforce the ICC’s arrest warrant. Afaik he’s only been to Mongolia and South Africa since the warrant was issued, and both were criticized pretty heavily for not enforcing it.

Realistically, he’s not going anywhere that even might arrest him.

Either way, if nobody is going to enforce an arrest warrant they’re not going to claim a bounty either.
