The research is not nearly comprehensive enough to say that a massively popular game franchise does not have a social and political effect on how people view firearms. That’s a massive leap from “gamer kids don’t get into fights at recess more than non-gamers.”

Alack, alack-a-day! In sooth I have no confidence that the literary style, themes, and values of Louis Rhead will be faithfully represented…

Stop being an obtuse ass. If literary criticism isn’t your thing, find something else to do.

I always attempt this in every game with animal interactions. There was a really cute minecraft server I was on for a while that provided plant-based alternate recipes for everything. I really like Oxygen Not Included but the nature of the player’s relationship with the “critters” grinds on me the whole time.

If you are eating in restaurants, clearly money is not your primary concern.

We live in a corporatocracy and we vote with our dollars. Voting for Sony is class defection. To promote them for zero dollars is truly to be a useful fool.

I feel like this is just enabling Microsoft.

People do not live in Downtown Toronto. It is that dense because it is the entire country’s financial district. Residential developments cannot pay the premium demanded, it is all office towers. The tiny minority of Torontonians who can afford to and choose to live there are apparently willing to put up with that.

Residential density looks more like Montreal’s walkup residential buildings.

Even if you could point out an example of density done poorly, you would have to ignore all the examples of density done well for it to be meaningful.

I see you were having a bad day, my guy. Hope you’re feeling better.

No, this 320k is ALL for the lawyers. Haven’t even gotten to the 200 million of damages yet.

And nothing of value was lost. It’s all mass market bullshit.

Yeah well the rest of us really don’t care if “all y’all” kill each other on the road so knock yourselves out

This is an EA title and so not only will I not be spending money on it, I will be casting contemptuous glares at any of you chuckleheads and class traitors who do.

If it’s made with the same process of cultivating cultures of the same microorganisms, then it is still cheese.

I’m starting to fear its becoming a moral imperative to throw ourselves into the gears and jam the machine with our bodies

Combine them and you have a golf course. It’s like park where everything has been killed and replaced with turf and only rich people are allowed to enjoy.

I feel you have to try hard to take that as the message here.

Some people would say that attempting to reach your own self-fulfulment through your children is a form of child abuse. Certainly it can easily become abusive and I don’t think it’s a positive pattern to encourage.

Having a child aught not be about what you want or even what you need. That’s backwards, and it’s exactly the sort of lie we tell ourselves to try to post-hoc rationalize a decision that our bodies have made for us, and we want to believe we made for ourselves.

That’s not what I am talking about. I am talking about simple emotional dependence on your children for your own needs. That is a classic abusive inversion of the relationship.

Once you die, it’s over. Dead people don’t have interests. Making plans for when you are dead is even more irrational than convincing yourself that having children is a benefit to you or anyone else. All this stuff about fulfilling your ancestor’s legacy is romantic twaddle you use to confuse yourself.

Human reproduction is the biggest con. The worst thing is, we’re the ones fooling ourselves.
