  • It’s not so much about paying more, but rather directing where my taxes go. I already pay out the ass in taxes where I live, I’d just rather see my hard-earned income spent on public comprehensive healthcare… primary and undergrad education… automating as much production as possible… universal basic income.

    Not blowing people up. Not digging for oil. Not bailing out corporations. And CERTAINLY not funding police with military surplus used to oppress and murder our very own citizens.

    The people using my money for those purposes, and more, can go Fuck themselves to death. Preferably in the least enjoyable way possible.



  • Green Fluff is just a derivative of Ambrosia, which is very much a Southern-States creation. We Midwesterners simply made it better. /j

    Jokes aside, my grandmother used to make her own homemade cherry ambrosia. That recipe is lost with Dementia (she never wrote it down either, heh) so I’ll probably never have Pink Fluff that good again. Don’t knock it 'til you try it.








  • I don’t think they have a backup plan, everything is going according to their active plan. You could almost consider this like micro-colonization: the wealthy step on the toes of the working folk, lie to the workers into thinking colonization is good, drain resources and human willpower, then throw them in a ditch after they realize their home was stolen from them. Ask the Native Americans, Aboriginals of Australia, or almost every single African country to ever have existed.

    TL;DR - We’ll probably be displaced to neat little patches of land where were are out-of-sight, out-of-mind.


  • I used to have the same thoughts on the matter, but honestly it does a disservice to those fine, intelligent people who are doing something against our broken socioeconomic system. We all know that fear and anger are significant driving forces in the political atmos’fear’, but hope and compassion can be an order of magnitude more effective than the former duo; especially when unjustly destroyed. I believe that Bernie, being the smart congressman he is, is setting the stage for reactive politicking in order to find the chink in Capitalism’s armor. We as a species can’t afford to waste any opportunity we have, otherwise we acquiesce with some disgusting Corpo Oligarchy and obliterate the one and only planet we have. For profit, of course.

    Honestly, it’s partly on the fans. Not enough people understand to be angry at the investors instead of the developers, who are essentially just scapegoats. Everyone gets fucked in the end except for the CEO and their Board of Directors. The frustration lies in how we remediate this as consumers who don’t want to boycott our favorite AAA-title games that get churned out yearly.

    And don’t even get me started on…
