Honestly surprising it took this long. Activision must have been incredibly lazy to have failed to get a movie made during the peak of COD's popularity. Microsoft at the helm means their chasing every speck of profit from their IP they can now.

If you want to see some real cope, head over to /thedavidpakmanshow where of the few posts the mods have allowed about this topic, the majority of the audience is utterly confused as to what this means. They don't understand how to read the wires article at all. Blue Maga has the same reading comprehension as regular Maga, unable to reach basic conclusions from an article without their precious YouTuber telling them what it means.

The vast majority appear to think this a good thing for Democrats to be funding influencers for the Dems but cannot see why not allowing them to cover certain topics stains their credibility as "independent journalists" which is also debatable given pakman seems to be just a news aggregator and offers no levels of journalism beyond just looking up what the associated Press is talking about, and then getting uppity about trump being trump and then miraculously never finding the time to ever talk about Israel at all.

What the fuck? Where do these people find the time to post this badly, so constantly? Like do they all work IT jobs that require no actual work so they can just post all day long?

Couldn't they just read theory instead and learn something?

I finished Laika aged in blood, it was a fun little Metroidvania motorbike game. Good little story about killing the decadent birds who destroyed the world.

Started hardspace shipbreaker (or something) again and it's so meditative to just slowly cut up a space ship into slag. Bonus for the the story being about forming a collective workers group against the corporation.

Basically libs have a deep desire to love capital and therefore can never admit china might be something's alright or better than the west. So they need to couch their lament in "well china has its own genocide too!" China cannot be allowed to be the good guy, because we the west must be the good guys or else everything they've learned would be wrong and the cognitive dissonance would shatter their feeble little minds.

We've got cheapo glazed donuts by the dozen at work that cost 3 bucks. It's clearly too many for me to eat but I still eat them all within a day. It's such a good deal and they're just sugar bombs but I feel amazing for the 5 minutes when I eat them.

This is what happens when you can see the good things, but you don't actually ask anyone about it. So they can see the better cars, technology, and so on, but don't ask anyone. Like imagine if the author has bothered to ask anyone while he's being a tourist "hey how does your government work, at various levels? It's all just warlords and dictatorships right?" And they'd chuckle and say we vote on things and have elected officials. Like western condescension knows no bounds especially about things they can't even be bothered to research a little bit.

Me and a friend rented this game and it to this day is the best dragon ball fighting game.

In that it matches what we wanted out of a dragon ball game of throwing energy blasts at each other and seeing who can win.

Also very funny boob physics because it was the late 90s.

Vegeta Vegeta has been accused of several planetary scales of genocide though... So kill your heroes I guess?

Oryx and crake had been optioned and was getting an adaptation developed, but I think it's currently in development hell. It might get revived since the handmaid's tale show was kind of popular. But the boat might have sailed on that.

I've had another long work week, and hopefully my weeks will be back down to 4 work days a week for a while now.

Been playing Laika aged in blood mostly. It's like what if trials had guns, was about furries, and also was a Metroidvania. It has an interesting mix of trials repeating a path until you can handle it, where part of the challenge is also firing bullets into bird skills at just the right time. The world is really well realized and the art is amazing with phenomenal music to accompany you.

Didnt you all see, that they have resurrected a parkland shooting victim with AI now, so the Democrats can say they're letting the parkland shooting victims run the DNC without actually letting a normal human run the thing and potentially appeal to actual people. Wild!
