My point is that society perceives her as a black women. Saying shit like “there are no black people” is moronic in a society that values and scrutinizes race as much as ours does.

I’d argue Walz bucks this trend, at least to a certain degree. His progressive policy and seemingly unwavering integrity seems to be a huge reason he was picked. They’ve leaned into his achievements and republicans are desperately grasping at straws trying to criticize him.
Missing the forest for the trees or whatever. It’s not about skin colour but how society perceives and treats you. If Kamala isn’t black then why is she being called a DEI hire when Hilary Clinton never was?
No shade but I could not take the premise of that book seriously. The idea that any complex system could be mapped thousands of years into the future is so incredibly unrealistic to me that I was unable to suspend my disbelief.
I’m a massive Dune fan though so I have no leg to stand on. Hold on a second while I re-calibrate my metabolism and use my genetic heritage to recall events that happened 30000 years ago.
It’s not that surprising to me. Chaos theory is not well known/understood and we are accustomed to seeing weather reports from childhood, it’s not odd to expect them to be accurate.
Hockey players are another breed. Not agreeing with his decision but also not that surprised.
Also, “sets exactly a good precedent”? I don’t see why this man should be expected to make personal/medical decisions based on “setting a good precedent”.
Not sure how old you are but calling brown people terrorists was extremely common after 9/11.
Am I the only one who doesn’t mind vacuuming? I’m in a 1 bdrm apartment so maybe thats why, but it’s by far my “favourite” chore.
Lack of direction is fine, empty feeling world is not. There was never anything interesting to find in my opinion. No interesting quests, very few towns or other landmarks. Just a lot of space filled with the same 10 enemies.
yaaaasss. Empty world, repetitive mechanics, crappy story. I don’t understand the hype.
For real. What a reductive analysis of a large and varied genre.
You can literally call any game a point and click game.
ye idk about this take mate
One of my favourite games but these are valid complaints.
Look I think there are valid complaints to be made about the Dark Souls franchise, but criticizing them for not giving you waypoints says more about you than it does the games themselves. The lack of any sort of hand holding was by far the most interesting thing for me when I first played Dark Souls and is the thing that got me hooked. The tension in exploring a new area, having no idea what to expect and being so scared you’re going to die is a wonderful feeling, especially when you overcome it and survive to the next bonfire.
You’re making me want to write a boomeresque comment about how kids want video games to hold their hands. Don’t you have a sense of adventure? Is exploration and mystery not interesting to you?
Which ones? All of them? I found BotW boring and massively overated but Ocarina of time & Majoras mask are fun and engaging games. OG Zelda and link to the past are also fun games.
Breath of the Wild. The combat is fun but after that got old I realized there was absolutely nothing about the game I found engaging. The world was sparse and filled with the same enemies everywhere, temples were repetitive, the writing/acting was absolutely atrocious, and many of the mechanics were tedious as fuck. Climbing is tedious, cooking is tedious, gathering is tedious.
I genuinely do not understand why the game is so beloved.
Terrible. I could flip this comment but it’s all been said before.
Simon Vance is my personal favourite narrator. The Dune audiobooks have a cast of narrators/actors but I wish Simon voiced the whole books, he’s amazing. The way he intonates adds so much to the text, but doesn’t ever get annoying. His acting for the characters is great too.
He also narrated Scaramouche and I genuinely can’t tell if I liked the book or his narration of the book.
Completely agree. He also just seems like a better candidate vibe wise so far, he’s funny and endearing in a way Kamala is not. Although I do vibe with Kamala’s dorky/weird moments that so many seem to criticize.
