    Introducing Walz as a VP hopeful sounds like they’re describing a Palin-level government official, not someone who has been active in politics for years.

    They did the same to Vance though. Isn’t he a Senator? They didn’t mention that, just that he’s somebody hoping to be Trump’s VP. They also provided what I would see as a positive point for Walz: a football coach. That could be taken as he has an interest in teaching others, possibly children, but they don’t specify there.

    I’d have to agree, however much I know media is biased, that this one is fairly neutral.



  • “Volume and Complexity: Yoshi-P noted that Final Fantasy 9 is a game with significant volume, encompassing various kingdoms, environments, and story elements. This complexity makes it challenging to fit into a single remake without substantial expansion and enhancement of its world.”

    Because Lord knows there was never a time when we had multiple disks for a large game.

    Go fuck yourself greedy fucking assholes… I’m sure they’ll pull some PS5 exclusive first bullshit too so they can milk every last cent possible…



  • Not exactly the same but I just went to Amazon to reorder my coffee as I’m getting low and for whatever absolutely bat shit insane reason they decided to double the price in just a handful of weeks… So fuck that. Now I have to find something else. :/

    That’s almost exactly why our brainwashing elementary schooling is spent indoctrinating teaching us about how we’re The Best, Most Free, Country In The World™©® and that all “3rd world” countries are war torn shitholes with nothing but cartels and warlords.

    Can’t let the peons learn it’s actually much better elsewhere…





  • Supposedly the argument for the recent absurd food prices is because of oil prices increasing (translates to shipping costs increasing) so much with Russia invading Ukraine and everyones sanctions on Russian oil plus the disruption of wheat production in Ukraine.

    And then there’s just plain old fucking greed.

    That’s a good point, but to be honest even if those thumbnails were just straight up ads I’d be ok with that. I can simply not click on it. Having any kind of actual ad on a premium service is absolute bullshit though, that’s straight up greed…

    Hell as a free user I wouldn’t mind in the slightest having their segments: videos, segment for shorts, more videos, be broken up to have videos, ad banner, shorts, videos, and banner etc… don’t lock me into having to watch an ad but I do understand they need ad revenue and I don’t mind seeing the still image ads “of the past” (well past for me since I’ve used an ad blocker for-absolutly-ever now.)
