“Inflation is high now, but will prove to be more or less in line when averaged out with 2020 and looking back to 2019.”

I doubt this. I’m not saying we should be panicking about inflation, but if things are going to stay this tight into 2022 - 2023, it’s unlikely that 2021 is going to just “average out.”

“There has literally be problems with children stealing parents’ credit cards to pay for stuff on this game.”

If such an event happens more than once, that’s the parent’s fault. After the first time this happens the child should no longer have a device to game on.

“ this game exists solely to get people(particularly children) to buy micro-transactions and it uses every single trick to do it.”

“Do you see white people doing it this Chad?”

As a white person who also pledged a house in college, I’m fine with any actor portraying a character in my house and wearing appropriate symbols and artwork to convey that.

I really enjoyed the single-player. 

+1 for this bit of brilliant incoherence. 

I can definitely understand that -- and I agree with you that such behavior is abusive and wrong. 

“My “favorites” though are the men 45-50 and over who say they want kids.”

As a 42 year-old man who has not yet had children due to various health issues with my partner and instability in my own life, this one hurt. There are people who *still* want to have children later in life, but were unable to do so when they…

I like fall because it’s not as hot as summer nor as cold as winter.

“I also wish she would stop because eating intuitively and learning your own hunger cues (or re-learning them) is how to get “healthy” and sustain health.”

“or that the customization system enforces asset data constraints that allow any asset to be used on any skin tone with no additional work required by the modder (perhaps multitexuring /w alpha channels)“

“And yet we all know what happened in 2010!”

Thank you for this. This bothered me a great deal. 

You shouldn’t be worried. These temperatures are far within the norm.

I think it’s more like “America still sells the dream of upward mobility when the reality no longer exists.”

When every generation made more than their parents and lived in nicer housing, this idea didn’t come off as toxically aspirational. 

It’s not obvious to me. I say this as someone who has never played the series, but I have absolutely no idea what you think the spoiler is. It looks like a moon with some art. 

The GPUs died because of soldering flaws, not because of the game. Identical cards from other manufacturers didn’t die.

“so tattoo artists shouldn’t be able to sue for credit just because their art happens to be on someone’s skin? even if they themselves did the art?”

Tattoos can be copywritten, but tattoos on public figures are subject to a fair use exception given that the artists who tattoo these people can reasonably expect those…

“I mean, why would you say “I’m for a slightly higher minimum wage” instead of “I’m for doubling the minimum wage (and then some).”

The only thing I know regarding WV voters is that it was once a Dem stronghold that has gone almost completely red, so I’m not trying to argue that I am an expert on the topic. My comment…

“Not sure why either one couldn’t be primaried.”
