  • In all honesty it seems you just hate stories and I mean thats ok because gameplay, ascetic, and community are all features that become reasons for people to love games and usually its a combo of multiple different features that cause that game to be a favorite but why are you being condesending about basic plot lines? A good story needs a template in order for it to grow into something more and i honestly cant think of a book that doesn’t fall into these catagories even “House Of Leaves” falls into it IIRC

    Yes tropes exist and can be a sign of bad writing but, tropes can be done extremely well and create more then what was there before which is a sign of great writing.




  • Tbh I wouldn’t mind farming if cash crops such as alfalfa were limited to being less then 50% of crops grown, if they didn’t take 90% of water parsed to states while citizens and businesses only got 9% then tell us to stop showering when we ask why or for them to cut back during record droughts, and if they didn’t vote for those who litterally reinstated child labor after we knew children were losing limbs. But hey im just a rural city boy thats read their 90 page water rights bill so wtf do i know.

    I think all someone would need to do is make a meme of elons sub with him in it, at the titanic crash site, give him a pog face then place text that says “why elon is better then bezos” and both would race to get down there first



  • Its difficult personally to believe its a myth due to my memory of the Twitter buyout where I recall the main struggle being that the CEOs of Twitter couldn’t deny Elon purchasing Twitter due to the threat of lawsuit from their shareholders, and after announcing his plans to purchase Twitter for the inflated price Elon couldn’t back out due to the same threat however I am open to the idea that I could of been misled on that situation.

    As for the why of a myth like that circulating I doubt its due to malice and more due to misunderstanding as Ive always understood that any wording made on a legal case could be used as precedent. It could also fit well with people rationalizing why companies seek record profits while underpaying workers for their labor.

    If anyone could clarify the Twitter situation without sucking off elon it would be appreciated


  • It would be so difficult to silence that news nowadays though, all it would take is 1 leak for scientists around the globe to start shouting about it, they couldn’t even stop snowden back in the 2000s from revealing the goverments attempt to spy on Americans and now we have youtube, the fediverse, more independent news sites then you could shake a stick at. Its crazy how fast info can travel now.



  • Reddit crashed, spez came out of hibernation, 5k subs are still down according to Reddark when initially there were only 2.5k that agreed to the blackout, we also hugged kbin and Lemmy to death 4 times to my count so its not too underwhelming although I get the sentiment though as these sort of things are a slow death particularly this one as moderators use old.reddit and third party apps the absence of moderators wont be felt immediately
