I’ve not actually run into more than two or three assholes in helldivers. Almost everyone is cool. Idk if it’s because I exclusively play in7-10 difficulty on PC or what.
Lots of funny people, and almost everyone pulls their own weight and when shit goes wrong usually everyone has a laugh.
Also being the host helps cause I just kick the couple of people who are assholes lol
Yeah that’s what I’ve been saving for at least a decade. Every company I worked for has feature creep in what you are expected to be an expert in and at a certain point you don’t actually know anything you’re just vaguely aware of a lot of different things.
I wish more people understood this
Yeah sorry but people who jerk off to the pedo rape game are definitely pedos.
Yeah I’m always conflicted. Like eugenics is the end goal for these fascists but also… We should try to prevent hereditary defects rtct
So something to consider is if you keep making those jokes you will unconsciously start to internalize it. If not you then one of your friends. It’s just how brains work.
I sarcastically make fucked up jokes with my friends too but only ones I know already don’t hold those positions and only when it’s clear that we are being sarcastic or pretending to be dumb fucks.
Yeah I said all sorts of shit I never believed. Felt like none of it mattered and racism wasn’t real etc etc because I was a dumb privileged kid. Once I talked to people different than me and thought for like forty seconds I realized how stupid I was and how I’d been getting sucked down a right wing rabbit hole.
None of it excuses my actions and these dumb young Republicans are actively trying to enforce their racist beliefs.
Friend of mine constantly has a shooting pain from his shaft to his butt hole that never goes away. He’s had it for more than a year now and they’ve tried to do multiple surgeries etc to fix it. Can’t.
I voted Obama, Hillary, Biden and Harris. And the more important midterms/downballot
It’s a failure on the Democratic party. We know Republicans will always be controlled by the religious right, “The Economy”, and racists. I cant bring myself to expect them to be better.
Dems knew swing voters were hesitant and instead of providing an alternative other than “less bad” they moved to the right and got outflanked by Donald on every fucking issue and anyone that wanted to vote Republican lite just voted Republican anyway.
Every election cycle is the same.
Dems start by virtue signaling cultural left problems, giving lip service to some “economic left” issue for a few months before completely abandoning it.
They spend the next several years talking about how they need to win over Joe America, the pig farmer plumber-man who doesn’t want to vote for the right BUT HAS TO because woke. They throw whatever minority they have to under the bus because they are super serious Machiavellian politicians who ‘get shit done’ and then lose because they’ve offered yet another candidate that is Republican lite. For the last year I had to listen to pundits, politicians and posts waffle on about if it was trans people, Palestinians or migrants they should have abandoned harder. One of them was the secret solution that would have lead to victory.
Or they win and deport more people than trump did his first term (Biden) or continue the same wars they got elected on bailing out of. (Obama) And giving wallstreet infinite money cheatcodes at a pivotal moment while Americans were being unhoused instead of taking the opportunity to create a new American housing program.
They do what you are doing and blame voters, who HAVE TO VOTE IN THE MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION OF OUR LIFE TIME (again) or society will collapse (again).
Harris would have been better than literal fascist, but don’t pretend it would have been by much. The deportations would have faced less resistance and would have had zero push back by the media and less public attention. No one would have cared. Kamala “do not come” Harris campaigned on building the fucking wall for fucks sake. None of these people want to address the actual issue of climate change and constant interference in Latin countries leading to political instability is what is causing the migration. The rhetoric on Gaza would have been more strongly worded letters at best with no material difference.
The big big difference would have been in queer rights, judge appointments, fed jobs, bureaucracic institutions (that we currently need to function), and ya know not deploying troops on civilians etc. but you only have to look to Furgeson to see how civil unrest is treated under a dem. Better? in rhetoric.
Biden only won because of the left flank of BLM causing a mass movement against Trump. Obama only won because of leftwing anti war sentiment and anti bush sentiment. Pretending Harris would be any different than any other international power at best on Gaza is stupid. Listen to her words. Recently when talking about Palestine she spent the entire interview talking about wanting to soften Biden’s rhetoric not his policies.
Sorry for the long post I’ve just been doing door knocking for Dems since John Edwards, then John Kerry, then Obama, then Bernie, then Hillary, then Bernie and then I just couldn’t fucking do it anymore. Nothing changes with the party.
The bad option who chose to let the Nazi get elected? I voted for the bad option but that doesn’t make them guilt free. They had so many options and we’ve had decades of lead up. They know that they can’t win every election by just being Democrats lol. And yet…they lost to one of the least popular presidents we’ve ever had
No it’s another attack on Christianity in America. That’s the line. Never mind they don’t care about mormons
Imo it’s part of a larger project along with criminalizing homelessness to attack people with mental illness.
If you go on reddit or other social media it’s not in common to see people calling for a return to whatever to their mind imagines as old school mental institutions with forced institutionalization for anything they don’t like
I think Korea would have been better off deciding its own future.
There was a moment in history where a communist North Korea could have really succeeded but due to both internal and external factors it obviously didn’t.
I do think that those of us in the West sometimes downplay how much damage the Korea war did though.
Something like 70-80% of their cities were flattened. It’s hard to recover from that while the us is constantly interfering. This is not a defense of the regime but just kinda sad what has happened to the North Korean people. It’s miserable.
South Korea and it’s oligarchy fucking sucks too. It just looks prettier and has more food.
The history of white skin in Korea is still kind weird though right? I think it’s American exceptionalism to pretend it’s all America’s doing but capitalism has definitely taken up the white skin cause in a big way in South Korea lol

The industry is wild
Go take your pills
Okay then chill in the back and be super smug from the couch or whatever, nerd.
A few protests change nothing but it does help organize and network. Many people have no connection to their community and this is that chance
What’s public transit? Will that drive me 50 miles to work at the exact time I need it to?
I’m salty my country is like this. Fucking stupid
Salmon is 9 dollars a pound at Aldi’s milk is 2 bucks eggs are like 2-3.
Deodorant is about 3-4 dollars. Protein powder is like 2 dollars a serving at Aldi’s if I remember right?
Anyways when I go to Aldi’s I usually spend about fifty and that lasts a few days. I have three people in my house though and a growing teen. You can definitely do 50 a week on lean diet that requires you to cook every meal but the more people in the house and the more you work the less this is viable and the more you have to rely on premade shit.
Aldi’s is the shit tho. 8 bucks for three pounds of ground turkey goes a long way
Weird… what difficulty were you on? Maybe it’s harsher for newer players or something. Occasionally people don’t like getting killed but I’ve found as long as I say sorry or correct my mistakes no one cares.
Friendly fire usually makes everyone laugh but I also usually play with one irl friend so that also makes a difference.
The laser drone can be rough until you figure out how it fires and how to avoid friendly fire.
