  • Outer Worlds was fantastic.

    Can you make legitimate criticisms about some of it? Sure. You can make legitimate criticisms about anything.

    But the overwhelming amount of hate I’ve seen was from fanboys who deluded themselves into thinking it was gonna be New Vegas in space, When nothing even remotely close to that was hinted… and because it didnt up being what they deluded themselves into thinking it was gonna be, they hated on it.

    Also, they’ve made a TON of fantastic games.

    Alpha Protocol was a mindblowing game with a depth and complexity that still makes it playable today, 16 years later (technically it came out before New Vegas, but Alpha Protocol doesnt get enough love so I’ll mention it when ever I can)

    As for post-New Vegas games…

    Stick of Truth was wildly succesful

    Pillars of Eternity was wildly successful, and created a franchise for them.

    Tyranny was fantastic and fresh

    Outer Worlds I already covered.

    Never played Grounded but it must be wildly fuckin popular to be getting a sequel and a TV show.






  • So it was necessary to say that pus is made of somatic cells to explain that the claim is in fact true.

    And so is liver, and intestine, and heart, and skin, and lungs, and bones, and blood, and most everything else in a living creatures body.

    You are trying to hide behind a technically because you know the whole “MILK IS FULL OF PUS AND BLOOD” is bullshit. So you keep dancing around the edges, saying somatic cells are pus cells, saying pus is made of somatic cells, trying to trigger a revulsion in the ignorant who don’t know what they even are.

    You are trying to do the whole " All people who consume Dihydrogen Monoxide eventually die, highlighting its toxicity" type spiel. Taking a hint of truth, and twisting it out of proportion into something completely ridiculous and unrealistic.





  • because America keeps giving money to broadband companies, who promise to improve internet speeds and access… give the money to executives as bonuses, do shit all with speeds or access, and their reward is another dumptruck of money to expand access and speeds… Which they 20 return to 10 and give it all out as executive bonuses again and do fuck all for the customer/citizens

    oh, and when municipalities try to run their own broadband, they force them to shut down because its not fair for them to compete with the monopolistic internet companies. 🙄
