It's cute and funny if you're looking for something lighthearted.

Thank you, this was my first thought. We're tired of AAA slop that's almost always perpetually online, rushed, derivative, and riddled with microtransactions/battlepass subscriptions. Not to mention they're about to start trying to charge us 80 bucks a title. Let the industry rot.

Parentheses, duh.

Extraordinary rendition

Thank you for taking the time to type this out. I wish the people who needed to read and turn it over in their head were willing and able.

Is it possible… can we do cocobolo?

Nice piece.

Democrats simply have no levers to pull to make wholesale changes. I remember Hillary attempting to engage with healthcare reform during her time as First Lady and being pilloried for it. Obama's administration couldn't muster nearly enough votes to enact single-payer healthcare and had to opt for a market based solution that just eked through congress, only to be lambasted by the modern left for it.

Many around these parts act as if Democrats can just enact reforms by fiat and do not answer to a largely centrist, if not conservative, constituency. A cursory examination shows this has never been the case; the center/left has always had to govern via consensus.

Now "leftists" are eating their own to a degree that leaves me often suspecting that many are little more than poorly disguised MAGA adherents bleating accelerationist nonsense. This thread and any other like it is replete with these moans of surrender, and who can be surprised? Organizing takes much more effort than vomiting into a keyboard and these folks are by and large too lazy to suss out an understanding of recent history, instead choosing to repeat the same canards (see: the conspiracy theory of independent Bernie being cheated in lieu of not being able to come close to winning the Democratic primary.)

This is the crux of it, American's have shown us time and again they are centrist/center left at best. These folks are so trapped in their ideological bubbles that they cannot fathom their extreme outlier position, small wonder that there is so much accelerationist language of late.
Compromise is taboo and so any candidate that has agitated inside the system for change ends up verboten.

Did Bernie not run in the primary? I remember him having his ass handed to him in my state.

This is very refreshing to read.

Have been playing this on Steam Deck since the handheld released and it's fantastic with the trackpads. Also a big fan of the audio syncing features as bluetooth has a good deal more latency than speakers. My only wish for the title is that it allows us to save settings per device in lieu of having to remember the particular number of milliseconds for each one.

Thanks!

Same, apparently 2v2 (and 4v4 customs) were just added this month and so I hope the population keeps trending upwards. Their Discord is highly recommended if you're into that kind of thing.

Thanks for the link!

No, I've served and it has nothing to do with that. Thankfully advocating for violence isn't allowed on Lemmy; take it to one of the right's fascist holes where it belongs.

Classic.

Advocating murder absolutely brings you below the level of this horrible human being and works to validate violence on the right. Your cowardice is a shameful stain on the community.

My problem is it's on sub-stack. So no.
