Red pill. You can make money, but you can't make time.

Absolutely. As someone who manages a small team, my duties are advocating for the people who work for me, listening to the people closest to the problem, mediating disputes between people with different solutions, and ensuring we are all working towards the same overall goals. Most of the success of the team is directly attributed to their work. My biggest contribution is making sure they have what they need to do their job.

As an American, I think the moment I said "which one" when asked if I had heard about the mass shooting in wherever it was I can't even remember now, that was when I realized how fucked our gun policies are.

Games aren't objectively better or worse than they used to be. AAA devs can release unfinished trash and patch it later, which I think is super annoying, but we enable this behavior when we pre-order games simply because it's the next iteration of our favorite series instead of just waiting to hear the impressions of other gamers.

Also, as an adult I lack the time and patience to play the same kinds of games I used to play, so I've had to adjust my play style to suit my schedule better. That means I enjoy casual singleplayer games more than what I used to play growing up. It also means you have to avoid the temptation to buy games you like, but you know damn well you won't ever actually play.

My brother in Christ, you are conflating free speech with the freedom from consequences. You are free to express your opinions. You will not be arrested for that. You can use the internet however you wish to express whatever opinions you have, no matter how stupid or hateful they are.

However, if your opinion sucks, the community will "deal with it" by down voting your dumb ass, and if you piss enough people off, you'll get banned. Your rights have not been infringed. You're just an asshole and people don't want to listen to you anymore. You can freely go complain about it somewhere else.

I'm sure there is a community on the Internet that would welcome your shitty opinions into their little echo chamber. Go there if you don't like it here. Or, as you say: "deal with it".

Damn, only half a billion dollars you didn't have before. Might as well not even bother.

Please, please, please, can people just understand this?! It's infuriating hearing all these conspiracies when in reality, it's so much simpler to just use the data we already know they collect.

I think I'll just keep calling it Twitter.

To be fair, the 2020 election was won by a left wing conspiracy to oust Donald Trump. In fact, it was the biggest left wing conspiracy in history. Over 81 million Americans conspired to vote that fat cunt out of office.

Ok, so I know "retarded" is an offensive and outdated term, but I propose we redefine it as "being ignorant, knowing that you are, and stubbornly refusing to make any attempt to fix it".

Used in a sentence: Ron DeSantis is retarded.

Description says it all. 3 years ago I hadn't hit a gap jump bigger than a bike length.

There's nothing quite like landing something for the first time. I've been eyeballing this line for almost 2 years and when I first saw it I never thought for a moment I would be riding it, but this past weekend I broke the mental barrier and executed.

I never thought I would do this run, but this past weekend I finally managed to break through the mental barrier and execute. I cannot describe how ecstatic I was when I got on the on-off.

What do you do when it's raining? I've been swimming and using the rock climbing wall, but I'm really missing the trail rides. How do you keep busy?

I'm so stoked on this jump right now. I crashed on my 3rd attempt. This was the redemption run.
