Dear Nancy,

Enclosed you will find a plan to go down in history as a positive figure instead of a feckless ghoul good at nothing but insider trading.

Best,

Classic “I wish we lived in the world conservatives think exists”

Marvel Rivals - Started playing with some of my wow guild mates, v fun. I don’t get super into hero shooters but it’s a fun thing to do with friends.

Dredge - Finally got around to pirating it, nice game to play while my spouse and I listen to a podcast

Baldur’s Gate 3 - Slow progress, don’t have that much time I can really sit down with headphones on and focus on something but it’s so good.

Ah okay yes that’s the part I misunderstood, that is fucked. When it’s not costing you anything or limiting you just attribute credit ffs

Imagine if Nancy Pelosi was secretly funding Maoist guerillas in Kentucky

So not even shut down by Nintendo, shut down by someone who went “waaah waaah this is copyright infringement”?

Yeah man you’re making the “Pirate Games” machine of course there’s copyright infringement involved I’m shocked you ever thought there wasn’t

“Program on Wii uses Wii code” no shit? Of course it would. It’s a program on the Wii!

Am I missing something here?

Progressive’s plug-in thing that gives you a discount if you don’t brake too hard strongly encourages running red lights and slowing down to a dangerous degree on rural roads long before your turn, threatening you with increased rates if you don’t do these dangerous things.

Like, these things should be so very incredibly illegal. A device that charges you money for slamming on your brakes is a device that discourages quickly braking when necessary, which is so fucking dangerous.

Patents should be so specific that it’s basically a joke how easy it is to get around them. Like, anything past building the exact same product to the exact specifications listed shouldn’t be patent infringement.

I should be able to build an iPhone 15 but all the components are 5% bigger so they don’t match the patent filing and it’s not infringement. For digital things, unless I straight up stole your code and assets, absolutely not.

Also patents should expire after like, 5 years, 10 at the most. Not just because I hate capitalism. Even using the explicit logic behind why patents exist, longer patent terms are harmful. You allow people to patent things to “encourage innovation” by ensuring people have the right to profit off their inventions. But after a few years that’s done, and longer terms prevent people from building on the work of people that came before.

Because reality is sad and I like media that reflects and comments on reality

And there isn’t even a shortage of lasers! There’s plenty of people getting shot at!

Like holy shit, have subway surfer tiktok videos ruined your brain so much that you can’t listen to a well-paced content-rich conversation? It’s not like it’s a lot of talking where nothing gets said, every conversation is so dense I catch details on a second watch.

Yeah that’s the other thing, 95% of Star Wars content is made for you illiterate babies, let us have our 24 episodes of the one boring and sad show.

Also, were these people complaining that Game of Thrones was boring and sad? Or Breaking Bad? Honestly they probably were complaining about both of those when they had character heavy episodes now that I think about it

You’re god damn right it must

Re: 1

But we also tend to be very good at doing the work capitalism demands of us. Thats why at 6 years old they pulled me aside in class to give me harder math and say “You should be an engineer” a thousand times.

It’s not even a problem of capitalism, it’s a problem of distribution and not putting autistic people in roles they can perform well.

I swear it must be broken, it’s just been an uninterrupted beep for months

I deeply wish for those 3 men to die horrific, painful deaths
