Absolute bollocks. Callisto was also severely mismanaged, and even things like GTAV only cost $150m to develop.

Yeah the guy claiming it’s not a grift is a moron, frankly.

“You can SEE where all the money went.”

“I would completely grant that history tells us that the meek, so to speak, tend to be those that most reliably survive the relatively short apocolyptic conditions we’ve faced historically. I’m just not entirely sure that these precedents are relevant to the protracted apocalyptic conditions portrayed in these…

“I think it’s rather well understood that even neurotypical humans have the capacity to engage in extraordinary violence (even cruelty) without being overtly crippled emotionally or psychologically by it.”

No, Ellie did.

I was coming here to say “So this is the ‘bag of dicks’ we’ve been hearing so much about”.

I kind of believe her, but only because she grew up in a very hippy-ish upper-middle-class subculture in California, and I absolute knew kids who grew up in similar subcultures and had genuinely never eaten a burger at, say, 19, and were already into weird diet stuff so could probably make it to 39 (her age) without…

I think what needs to be recognised the US society (specifically, not so much the West in general) had a huge, gigantic increase in xenophobia from post-9/11 stuff, and particularly kids growing up over the ‘00s watching adults IRL and on TV/news constantly engage in demented xenophobia (I only hesitate to say…

They could be going to draw a connection to both groups via a third, presumably earlier/historical group with Watch in the name/purpose. That would certainly make sense of both of their names. It might also explain their animosity if they’ve got very different takes even if coming from similar initial principles.

It’s not just you. The AV Club pretty consistently sides that way.

Rude person is angry that celebrity was also rude.

I mean, you act like no-one has ever accidentally picked the wrong kids, and it’s definitely happened.

I mean ACAB and all that, and definitely some % of cops do dream of the day they get to cap someone, but I’m not sure most do, given how many go their entire careers without ever even firing at someone (the vast majority, last I heard). In fact this actually points to an ACAB fact which is that the shootings that do…

There is considerable crossover with mental illness, particularly schizophrenia and bipolar or the like.

Well, with respect, the other way it moves is if a police officer moves it from the body after the guy dies.

It’s absolute drivel as an insult.

Hol’ up everyone!

I am quite sure there will always be room on TikTok for MLM scamming, and rapidly spreading extremely dangerous conspiracy theories, along with the fetish material.

I mean, Jesse Cox is pretty clearly in the first camp you describe, the 1-2%, given the games he’s worked on. So I guess she found the right dev?
