Totally fair gripe, and I have the same one with choice trees in most games. I don’t mind little stuff that doesn’t affect the longer game, but holy shit, if choice A or B is going to wildly change the outcome of the game / who I’m dating / if a character lives or dies / etc, either make it super obvious or flat out tell me! I’d LOVE to have a little info icon next to dialog choices that would say “FYI if you choose this option you’re straight up rejecting any future romance with this char” or something. Immersion breaking? who cares! so is save scumming and a ton of other game mechanics. It’s all for fun anyway, I’d rather know what I’m doing and not waste time.

Sorry, rant over :D

This feels, questionably, like real news. Billionaires cry in public at the stock loses, but eat up more subtle policy changes that will make them more money.

You’re not a bad guy, but this is kind of a bad faith argument, saying that a 14yo not being comfortable with their gender is just a phase they’ll grow out of (like any other stupid kid / teenager phase). Does it happen? sure, of course it does. But it’s not ‘just a phase’ for the VAST majority of trans pre adults. If you’re scared that someone will change their mind and keep them from doing anything until 18, then they get hit with full wrong gender puberty and change their bodies in ways they can’t undo. Most of the older trans women I know transitioned in adulthood, and it sucks to say but they still sound like a dude talking. They hate it. They wish so bad they could have been allowed to do this as early as possible. They knew exactly what was going on, but had to wait. It’s up to parents to know their kids and say are you sure? are you SURE? REALLY? yeah? ok cool let’s do this then. Why make them suffer longer?

I loved that guy, politician I think, who said “This app is disgusting. It’s just full of nearly naked young girls!” and everyone was like my dude, it’s an algorithm, that’s on you.

The idea is that they’ll be used to track pregnancy and hurt people in certain states. Chaos will help the situation.

Articles like this are going to make people think they don’t have to vote. Ffs

Mine tried to correct ‘about’ to ‘Scott’ if I even swiped a bit wrong, and now it’s locked in and doesn’t even work if I do it carefully.

Potatoes were popular last year, so now we’re including potatoes, jars of gravy, and little cans of baked beans buried in the candy bowl this year.

They do of course. If you’re in battle ground states they matter a TON, and they matter for everyone in local elections.

Same with ads. Never could figure out why they did anything.

SpekTrek is pretty old, but is a walking / exploration game.

Nice! Did they just start, or are 1 - 12 available somewhere?

Yep. My friend started testosterone recently and said that he went from always too cold to being a furnace.
