You could get into Dragon Quest games, if you want old school JRPGs. Complexity might be a bit lacking given the era, but doing the old NES ones without a guide is excruciatingly difficult and you can lump on RetroAchevements to add more pain. RA generally adds additional challenges to any older game so you have to play a little min maxing to accomplish them.

I mostly thought of it since RA is beta testing multi sets with DQ9 and getting every accolade might be one of the most insane things I could ever suggest.

Great, we're halfway to publishing this thesis! Let's send your analysis to a Tier 1 research journal ASAP!

AOC was probably more out of necessity since white America can't handle a simple pronunciation.

Although mispronouncing Marjorie Greene would probably really piss her off. Rep. Greené

Bizarrely it's probably more eco friendly than not having the tradition since those tree farms probably wouldn't exist otherwise. It's not like the meat industry, it's probably net positive on emissions.

Though, it would be better if we just reduced urban sprawl and deforestation of natural forests, etc., but that's how it goes I guess.

Ah, my frame of reference is more MMO, so discords and stuff tend to be at least 30% women if not more. MMO guys can sometimes be creeps but it's never the whole channel, usually there's already a woman in the group when you join.

Although I'm maybe a little biased, the discord I run calls out bullshit real fast, and we've been at it for years, lol. Still, I'm sure there are some really cringe groups out there. That, and there is a type of harassment that's mostly through direct messages. That trend isn't too strong lately, I think, because of how many guys play female characters it's a game of minesweeper most lonely guys aren't willing to play.

Y'know, I keep reading about this but what's the point? My kids talk to their stuffies anyway, and usually about way more interesting shit than the CCP. Imagination is wild.

Ew.

Glad these are universally fake and gay or this would be a bummer.

And 6x7 is 42, so now every generation can be happy.

This is where we are now?

C'mon, Valve has been extremely off hands in moderating their platform since day one. It's a problem, especially since their business model is to provide people value for using their service over DRM-free and piracy options.

Ugh.

At least Arial exists. And Helvetica. But Times New Roman? What is this, English class in the early aughts? 12pt font, double spaced with one inch margins?

Hell, if you want wanna make America great again make it Courier; tech bros'll think you're coding but we know you really just want to take us back to late 1800s when typewriters and bad economic policy were in. Or maybe something appropriate for this administration, like Wingdings.

If they manage to reel it in, what happens? Does Earth get a new orientation?
