Part of the problem is that, ultimately, people like performative rebellion. They like the idea that some charismatic figure really is going to donate 90% of their income and arm the revolution and lead the charge and change the system. All so that they don’t have to. They can live comfortably, secure that someone…

Some people just need some fresh air.

Viz cancelled the paper edition of Jump, but the digital one is $2/month, with unlimited access to the archives. It’s a ridiculous deal. You can also read the last three week’s chapters for free.

Say what you will about diminishing quality its hard to argue with a company that maintains a highly profitable market share by dropping a Pokemon game yearly. 

It’s almost like the people who comment on all of these articles don’t understand how businesses function, and think the only way to make money is to have “exclusives” for your dumb console, and not like there is any other reason a giant corporation might buy another corporation expect for “console wars”

To me the frustrating thing is the people cheering this on. I don’t want the early ‘90s, everything is on one platform or the other but not both environment! Independence is good!

Agreed. I’ll nab the sidequests when they pop up in my path, but I’m not going out of my way to complete them all. They seem more like mini-tutorials about game mechanics rather than rewarding pursuits. Maybe they’ll get better towards the end-game.

As far as I can tell, most sidequests in this game just arent worth doing. I can gather the materials for the rewards faster than it takes to do most of them.

Obviously for quests like the Shiny Ponyta and Sinnoh starters and whatever the whisp collectathon is leading up to are another story.

I can only speak for myself but I know when I need to learn about true blackness and black people I listen to the podcast of a man who watched people eat donkey penis on Fear Factor.

Peterson: Neither of us are white.

That’s pretty much how TCG’s go in paper and online. You eventually pay up or you are okay with not having the best cards.

You know what’s sad?

No he doesn’t. Without even reading the article, the headline assumes Dems have the guts to make the nomination and the balls to see it through if they did it. Both things are frankly never gonna happen.

He can do everything by executive order. Fuck how it looks, just do it. Cram every single thing we need down their throats. Fuck anyone who doesnt like it, thats one thing. A second thing, he could start taking this seriously-govern like he’s at war with the republican party, because he is, they know it, he doesnt.…

Oh jeez get the fuck out of here with the “well hes not a king” nonsense. Its just making excuses for his bullshit. He’s not helpless, theres plenty he could do that he JUST CHOOSES NOT TO. He doesnt act like a guy who sees republicans as the enemy.

Only terminally online leftists know that Republicans have been obstructing, have made obstruction one of their core tenets, for well over a decade? That’s what you’re saying?

He could have completed student loan forgiveness like he promised. He did not.

Media complicity is not just an afterthought, it’s the whole game.

McConnell literally said, out loud, that his and the GOP’s mission was to stop anything and everything that Obama wanted to do, and that was...12 years ago? While Joe was there in the room as the VP? But he “did not anticipate” this. How is this possible?

What’s worse is that when Republicans are in power they are never, ever pressed by media on either side to cooperate with Democrats. The media as a whole assumes that Democrats must get permission from Republicans to do anything, but Republicans are just allowed to do whatever they want with whatever power they can…
