American here: yeah, not far off.

I think we need to show Musk how peaceful we’ve been and how far from harmless we are. Let’s give him a very personal, intimate lesson.

I got banned for talking about Luigi too much.

“I love you” on the only two things he loves, himself and money. Pretty spot on.

Not OP, but Mario is one of the most recognizable characters in the world. He’s had comics, 4 cartoon series, countless toys and merchandise, theme park attractions, etc. The original Super Mario was the undeniable standard bearer for the platforming genre and would spawn the largest game franchise in world history, responsible for over 800 million games sold. I’d call it a pretty influential property, staying as strong as ever 40 years after Mario’s big starring debut.

They deserve to have “pig” branded on their foreheads and tossed into the worst genpop in the country for however long they have left in this world. The world will be a better place when them and everyone like them has been pushed out of society.

Holy shit, EA did something… Good? I did not have that on my 2025 bingo card. So, what’s the catch? There has to be a catch, right?

What about disliking textbook fascism and blatant corruption is tripping you up here?

“Warrior Essentials” is exactly the name of a snake oil brand id expect moron maga alpha wannabes to ignorantly fall for. They’re so fucking easy to grift.

I mean, maybe my friends are just weird, but I’m looking at the success of mass effect trilogy, BG3, the older dragon age games, etc and a huge talking point was always all the companions and possible avenues of romance and sex. That should never be the focus of the game, but it can be a substantial part of the overall experience and add a lot.

It’s just like our beloved Jesus said. Fuck the poor, fuck the sick, worship the rich. Or something, I’m a Republican, so I never actually read that book. /s

The cost is so much greater than the points you make, too. It’s just common sense that a healthy society is a productive society. Students getting the care they need can get a better education. Workers that aren’t stressed about unaffordable healthcare are innately healthier and can contribute more to society. A rising tide lifts all ships, and pretending that the bulk of our nation’s ocean can sink is only going to keep everyone down.
