losing half of my income to imagine a version of myself with the other half of my income? I can do that for free. what on earth is supposed to be the upside here? one that’s so great I’m losing half of my money?

shrug and say that things will have to get worse before they get better

Yeah…he literally put $1400 in your pocket, assuming you’re American, at the beginning of his administration in response to the covid-19 virus.

I am American. He literally didn’t do that. I’m not going to dox myself any further than I already have on 3 years of hexbear but I was disqualifies from claiming any money out of a thin pretext. I absolutely could have used that money and frankly I deserved it as much as any other American did. $1400 was already a point negotiated down from $2000, and this was in direct response to a century defining global catastrophe

Americans will not line up out the door out of the polling stations to vote for a guy who, in time of great crisis, did the absolute bare minimum

I’d bet money on it. Joe Biden’s failure to do anything material for the public, the crushed railroad strike followed by what happened in East Palestine months later, his unquestioned backing of Israel, failure to materialize any meaningful student loan debt relief. He’s running the Obama playbook without any of the charisma.

My 100% honest, best guess is that Joe wins the popular vote and loses the EC, just like how Trump won last time

SOMEONE FUCKING HELP ME I’M STUCK IN THE FUCKING WALL

Boooooooo

Rhodesia

In the bottom left it shows the current year in the Aztec calendar, presumably cut off and the “current year” in the Gregorian calendar at 2015 AD. I’m 95% sure this is just some guy’s alt history map, especially considering how many wack ass names some of these places have

Probably all the climate change shit

Also if you told a guy from 1923 that the world’s most industrialized nation was China they’d probably accuse you of lying

Jicama is delicious cut up into little strips and eaten raw. Never cooked with it though

does “bigotry” against landlords and the bourgeoise class count

oh hell naw who clicked the red bubble

“My mommy made me write this because you got your fee fees hurt”

Oh and if they made Civ 4: 2 I would pay $1,000 for that without thinking. I don’t even know what you would do with it other than make graphics more pretty but I don’t care I want it anyway

Sid Meier’s Pirates (2004) still holds up shockingly well for a game old enough to drink in most countries but I would absolutely love a remaster that makes the game feel a bit more fleshed out and less of a “capture merchant ship, fight/run from pirate hunters, return to friendly port to resupply/sell loot” routine
