Sleep. I'll probably make up the 50k pretty easily if I could stop insomnia-ing myself into a stupor randomly.

some of the actors/writers/producers have apparently said it had gotten uncomfortable making a pro police show when more and more examples of how fucked up the police force in the united states truly is are being uncovered

Yeah, I kinda figured it would happen but it still stings. It's not one of the shows I would want to come back due to how the cast feels, but I'll miss it all the same.

Prodigal Son and Brooklyn 99 getting cancelled fucking sucks.

Rayman, Sly Cooper and Gex deserve another run. F for all of em though.

The funny thing is that most mafia stories are more about how that premise is completely fake.

Yeah, but people listen to what they say and ignore what they do for some reason. Or find a way to justify it.

Chip shortage turned hype in to bitterness and greed right quick.

The unfortunate thing about this is the only real answer is "it depends".

If they are but it doesn't impact their work or workplace behavior then it's likely you'll never really know, or not have proper reason to even think of firing them.

If they are and it does get found out of impact performance, then absolutely. The only best case scenario for not firing them would be their presence just making the workplace more hostile. No reason not to can them.

So on the situation given even though it's unfortunate, it's "No". I mean, unless they're shit at their job regardless of racism.

The godfather, the idea they had a community first sorta mentality, and pushing the big "loyalty above all" thing. Creates a kinda nice setup for people glorifying it.

I was under the impression she was already doing a bunch of like, member only or unlisted or something streams. well, maybe "a bunch" is an exaggeration but it happened a few times at least

Mostly fanbox, pretty much everything she's done on YouTube has been archived except I think one.

I kinda think her mentioning she wants to move towards YouTube more right after YouTube actually did something about the bot situation may be linked though.

Delutaya will be streaming a short just chatting, she's definitely worth checking out.

https://youtu.be/x48BpBySAno

Checking out her archives should give some hints to who she was. She's apparently going to actually be streaming on YouTube semi regularly now according to her mods, but she's a bit busy irl at the moment

It has been funny since before there was proper language. It will never not be funny.

What mode should the offense be?

I also enjoy that Gen Z are so worried about seeming old. It's going to be fucking hilarious to see when they start getting there.

The only thing I see that emoji used for nowadays is Among Us sus memes.

I find it fascinating seeing a new younger culture being completely different. It's an interesting thing to experience.

The trick to it is they really aren't, they're just neck deep in meme culture. If you have access to the internet you can literally keep up with them via YouTube, tiktok, and twitter in like 30 min doses a day.

Aside from that, Gen Z is legit almost identical to millennials from my experience, just a bit more sarcastically jaded than mopey.

School sucks. Being stuck home almost every day sucks more. No one wants to be around their parents or kids all day every day no matter what they say.

ngl, i'm probably gonna sleep on niji's en branch. Holo fills my big company vtuber need, and indies fill in the gaps

Depends for me, a few of the small indie ones quitting were some of my favorites. If any of them turn out to be those I'll probably watch.

Granted lately due to time, I only really go out of my way to watch Pikamee and Calli when I can.

Seems like we're finally getting something on Nijisanji EN finally.

I've heard of a few smaller English speaking VTubers calling it quits around the 20th of this month, it could just be a coincidence but with this starting it seems a bit weird.

Fantastic co op action game with a friend, terrible everything else.

Standing for me.

It's a character action game similar to Bayonetta or DMC. The controls are a little rough around the edges but it flows well enough to not be an issue. It's gimmick of essentially controlling the positioning of a second character on most fights is cool. There are detective segments of sorts since you're a cop in the game, and they're alright--much better than I was expecting tbh, but a bit basic.

It's worth the money if you're a fan of the genre imo.

Honestly, streaming services are literally everywhere under the sun nowadays except the switch. I can't really think of a situation where I'd rather watch them on my Switch as opposed to just my TV or phone.

If I own a house I don't want to be told by some old cantankerous fucks what I can do at it tbh. Moving away from an HOA was the best thing I did for my life stress wise tbh.

Industry's goal is still to provide goods that will be used by regular people. There might be a whole bunch transformation steps between what comes out of an an iron mine and the end product of an F-150 truck, but in the end the iron mine is still part of the industry that produces consumer goods. Greenhouse gas emission goes much further than just the electricty/gas bill.

It's part of the reason why it's not productive to compare individual countries performance in greenhouse gas. What part of China's CO2 was used to make goods that were shipped to other countries? Should we blame the country that produced them or ones who ordered them?

The one that produced them. As said, people require goods because... Hell, we're not all going to be farming blacksmith engineer architects by trade. And as mentioned, environmental concerns aren't new, and a lot of them started noticing it and requesting change in the mid 80s. They just favor the cheapest way to do it, and I can understand that... But now we're at a point where we have to question why the fuck haven't they done more than the bare minimum in almost half a century? Wouldn't it have been easier to implement these things and research then over that time as opposed to getting to the proverbial wire?

When is the point we stop blaming the average Joe for needing these things to continue on with every day life as opposed to the countries and corporations opting to destroy everything on their path for the bottom line, including our future?

I have played since beta every day mostly. I have never seen these supposed 100+ card decks. People play 80 card yorion decks though.

I think they only match you up with really bad decks like that if you lose a lot and play your own bad decks.

One of the reasons for using a 100+ card deck is specifically because it breaks that algorithm. You can pad out a deck with unpopular cards to tank the "rating" but in reality just fill it with cards that accomplish the same things but with slightly different mana costs for example, and your deck will generally weight the better ones because the shuffler is trash lol

All I know is Im sick of facing a million angel/valkyries/hallowed priests/banishing lights/speaker of heaven decks

I've been flexing hard on em with Mardu Spirits and rocketing up ranked.

Yeah I admit I didn't read the very end, sorry.

But it's definitely not a lie, I see way more 100+ card decks than anything close to a standard size nowadays. I used to chock it up to people hating mill but I can't any more

It's not cheating, it's the deck shuffler being a piece of shit. There are land card and deck card numbers that cause it to weight out more even draws, and it's been like that since release. It's why I only run 62 card decks.

Meanwhile cryptocurrency rages on to the planets demise.

While crypto is bad it's honestly not that big an issue yet. It's more dangerous to power grids right now.

We still have way bigger things to tackle, and I'm speaking as someone who dislikes crypto.

If we're being absolutely honest here, phasing out gas vehicles likely won't happen for anyone but the wealthy and the poor/rural folk won't matter or get ignored. Simply because that's more or less impossible to enforce.

Also governments like to blame people for the emissions but if we're being honest, households driving less and using higher efficiency things in their house isn't gonna do much of anything to help our planet while production facilities and the like are vomiting out gases in quantities that make residential advancements moot.

I wonder is the Netflix shows are canon

They aren't. Pretty sure the intended Disney reboots will be though.

That said, I think the cast of Agents of SHIELD was even saying it freed them up to do more as soon as they got cut from the MCU canon in Season 2 or so.

Ina's new costume is definitely more fitting, really like it.

Street Fighter 2, if we're talking something strictly on PC, probably Blood.

Baten Kaitos definitely takes the cake here

Hippos are hostile assholes, Moose tend to be chill unless you fuck with them or get way too close.

Capcom has always been greedy. Nearly every video game companies are greedy even your precious Nintendo.

I mean, I don't actually like Nintendo. I like their systems but I'm not a fan of any of their first party games aside from Smash and Mario Kart lol.

But I mean, there's legit no defending the shit Capcom tried to pull with SFx Tekken.

Only if you dislike it for racist reasons, pretty much.

So the general rule that applies to... Kinda everything on this subject.

Welcome to literally every form of media for the past two decades. Once corporations realized that they can get away with vomiting out re releases/makes/masters of old beloved things they immediately quit caring about anything that involves risk, like new things.

Really helps with dust, mold, pollen allergies. That's the only time I wore a mask in Japan.

I have really annoying allergies and kinda never thought to bother with a mask for them. Using masks has helped me way more cost efficiently then staying on pills forever, and I don't feel tired as shit all the time too.

I will continue to do so after in the flu season and such, but I already did that. Probably on bad allergy days too.

Dragon's Dogma 2 is likely on the table/in the concepts process since the major hold-up was DMC5 and likely Monster Hunter's sudden runaway success, considering the lead dev actually WANTS to make DD2 and it actually sold better than Capcom was expecting.

That said, GodHand is dead due to it being a Clover title, likely lost to "who owns what" title war shenanigans forever. Which makes me sad. Along with Viewtiful Joe as well.

But honestly, Capcom deserved the hate they got--they were mad greedy for a while, but luckily they managed to take the hate as legit criticism and turned it around somehow.

Why are a bunch of dudes who are nearly 30 or in their 30s even arguing over how hot or not a teenager is

People will always argue about how attractive celebrities are even when it's creepy at times. Never understood it myself.

Damn, that's just fucking terrible. Really nothing else to say, I hope they can get the help needed from... Somewhere, anywhere. Although I'm sadly not certain what we can do for runaway cases like this at our point in the battle with COVID

I'm with Mortal Kombat on this one, but between the two choices given I'd rather watch Babe again.

oh, i was gonna say 17 sounds like a tremendous amount

It does, but they're just legit like direction+attack button with a few characters having some quirks.

If you wanna be comp worthy it takes a big time investment

But the vast majority of people just be fuckin around with their favorite character havin a good time

I mean most of the smarties spent their time figuring out ways for you to not plummet to your death.
