Im well aware.  It all got rolling in the 70s, though you can track it back further to tax cuts for the wealthy in the 60s. Inflation adjusted median incomes have largely been stagnant since 77-78. College costs have gone nuts.  I mean my mom got a 3/4 scholarship to college in the 60s.  She told me how much it was…

Each to their own.  I love AC 2, really liked Brotherhood, gave up on revelations, and each dip back into AC has bored me.  Unity (which i only tried after it had been patched an only cost me like 5 bucks) i saw the map...saw all the icons, just said no.  I dont need a map full of icons of pointless collectables.  It…

I started college at GWU in 99.  Our meal plan was all prepared cafeteria stations, but you paid by the meal, not a swipe and all you can eat (one meal hall, at the then all girls campus, in VA, that was a 30-40 min bus ride).  Burger King had a station, but it was the most mediocre BK (because aramark) same with taco…

Easier to say than do. Its been changing, but for millanials...they sold us a fake bill of goods. Work hard in school, get into the best college possible, work hard graduate, get a job, no college degree and your are fucked, and probably you need a masters. College costs started exploding in the late 90s as a larger…

Deathloop is out in 4 days.  Forspoken is in March.

Its not just on abortion (though clearly that is directly relevant). Its on everything. They only recently started calling out racism as racism. Moderates on the left are so scared of being called liberal. Its the problem with the democratic establishment. They let the GOP set the definitions for almost everything…

He wants to stay out of politics, but comments on regulations and tax policy whenever he wants.  Fuck him for a whole host of reasons.  I cannot stand Musk.  He tries to portray himself as a real life Tony Stark....he didnt invent or code Paypal, he didnt invent Tesla or anything involved.  He is good at venture…

Majority of white women still vote for Trump in 2020.  As White man (who despises Trump and the GOP) I already know my demo are assholes.....but until choice voters and activists develop the voter mobilization the ProBirthers do...nothing is happening.  Musk wont respond to abbots quote. Choice activists should be…

Yeah, equity helps, but you have to offset the equity growth versus both inflation and inflation in housing.  All well and good to have your home appreciate in value from 500k to 750k over 10 years (just using numbers not specifics), but a, you have to factor in the costs of utilities/taxes/home improvement expenses…

Its not far.  Its literally the second to worst entry.  Fuck XV.  Also, im basing this on mainline entries and excluding XI and XIV.  It always bothers me tha tthey called those two Xi and XIV, FF Online I and II would have been more fitting.  Then 13 would have been 12, and 15, 13.  I mean in the past 15 years square…

I have, but yeah this is moronic.  Id argue 6 is the highwater, but 7-10 are solid, and I personally like 12.  After 10, square got obsessed with trying to top previous entries in the wrong way.  

Gorgeous game at the time. And combat was great.  Other than that....horrible.  Still, its better than XV.  The story in XIII is stupid, but in XV its nonsensical.  And combat is moronic, it never evolves enough and you can literally button mash by the end.  But there hasnt been a good FF game since 12.  People may…

Im actually amazed that US health insurance providers dont lobby against the sugar industry or most big food companies.  Of course ive always been amazed that large employers like auto companies and others with large work forces for whom they have to provide healthcare under the law, havent lobbied for universal…

Im a lawyer.  We literally do not get paid overtime.  It doesnt exist.  I might get a performance bonus if I bill more than 2100 hours a year (which I am required to do, for perspective 40 hours a week 50 weeks a year is 2000 hours).  Also, billing 2100 hours does not mean i worked just 2100 hours.  I typically work…

This is shitty reporting.  You expect an executive at ND...owned by Sony to not brush off talks of unionization?  Ask Sony what they think.  Poll head of worldwide studios.  But no, go and ask someone who literally cannot say anything positive about unionization if he wants to keep his job or have any job as an exec…

Ill do it for the same money...im good at reading notes off of a card.  So....step back son.

.....all the producers should be fired.  They handled this so piss poorly.   Why wasnt an independent search firm retained to research the social media history of potential hosts for pr situations?  Seriously is that show just run by idiots?  Balik has a history of antivax posts, regardless of the history, read the fn…

Man, Jeopardy is owned by Sony right?  Why is every company so universally awful at this.  The older i get the more convinced I am that almost no executive seems to be worth the money they get paid.  The producers of jeopardy should all be fired for this...though Ill bet a few people objected and raised these concerns…

Im always surprised no one has leaned into “Extra” spicy.  People who like spicy tend to like spicy a lot.  Im not saying we need ghost pepper, authentic jerk, scotch bonnet, scorpien pepper heat, but I literally dont understand why we dont have a Popeyes chicken with spicy in the breading and in the sauce.  I wants…

everytime i have mc ds i get that awful feeling of too much sugar and salt all at once...and i dont get sodas.  Im always amazed at how fast mcdonalds shit cools off.  Their fries and nuggets are great until they cool.
