Orcs Must Die Unchained. Pretty good game overall, was trying to be a league of legends type of game with 3D TD, it didn’t get a player base going, so they swapped it over to a solo game, the maps were fun as hell and picking through 10+ characters was fun, it was really dynamic and the endless mode was very fun to push. They ended all support, it’s offline. Sucks. OMD 3 came out, it’s not even a quarter the game. Theirs 4 different player characters, they are all humans. All enemies are orcs or other bad guy type of mobs, unchained had human enemies and a few other variations, there’s no where near the number of maps and most maps play in a really predictable way. In Unchained there were maps you needed to build a kill box, sell it, move it, all to get one wave killed, at least on the first few waves, anyway. It almost scratches the itch, but not well. I’m honestly perplexed on why they didn’t just include the characters and maps from unchained.

Anyway. It’s a very ‘‘there are dozens of us!’’ Game. So. I don’t expect much here.

You gotta have a wake up protocol.

For the cult? Yes. 100% and they will never come around. There were people in the concentration camps (single digit not trying to rewrite history, this is all according to eye whiteness accounts of soldiers that freed the camps) who were still 100% dedicated to nazism and Hitler.

They start active shooter drills in Pre-K. That’s 3-4 years old. You’re kids are going to be more likely to be shot at school than a police officer after 20 years of service. Homie, they get told.

I’m so worried about eggs man. That’s my breakfast item! I need it!!

Anyone curious there’s approximately 177k Ford employees, and 21m divides to a little over 117k a person.

The union is asking for a 40% raise over 4-5 years. So 40% total spread across 4-5 years. Average wages are 100k (60k-130k). That’s 24k a person. All together is 4.3m rounding up.

He’d go from 21m to 16.5 mill, if his wages are totally stagnant, and he doesn’t get any kind of yearly bonus, which I really doubt he isn’t, and then also considered most CEOs make the majority of their yearly net gain in stocks alone.

I ment more positive change, I’m aware the country is being burned to the ground and looted.

It’s always been conservative neoliberals vs far right nationalism. No one is willing to change much of anything.

Licorice is not that common a spice any more, partially because it’s toxic at pretty obtainable levels, though people who like the flavor still typically won’t accidentally consume a dangerous amount.

If you want more money in public hands, holy shit is supporting a republican at any point from Regan to Trump the dumbest shit you could vote for. This is the party of ‘‘goverment doesn’t work’’ and privatization of all public services. They have never been shy about just how little tax revenue they want to end up in gov service to citizens.

It’s very effective when a lot of people agree and follow suit, these companies panic and now REALLY quickly when they no longer have a functioning business model. You have to have consumers willing to buy from you.

The ‘‘aid’’ we send to Ukraine is the US goverment using US money to buy US products and have the military drop them off. Those millions we send to Ukraine is money we have and keep in our economy, why conservatives are so fucking stupid they can’t figure this out is infuriating. Yes. Saw off you legs to lose weight. You’ll lose SO much.

Good ol meaningless buzzwords to justify any stupid ass idea.

‘‘Hello human, if you accept this free plane ticket to Machine Grace (location) you can vist and enjoy free food and drink and shelter and leave wherever you like, all of this will be provided in exchange for the labor of [bi monthly physical relocation of machine parts 4hr shift] do you accept?’’

Elon Musk Creates ‘‘Lobster Office of Lamps’’ and appoints himself ‘‘Cool Goth Guy Czar’’ and opens the first ever reverse class action law suit where he sues everyone for not buying more teslas, ‘‘I’m just… they made being a business illegal I guess… well… ha ha… meme lords… . we’re making buying what I say you buy great again! Ha ha’’ When asked for a sound bite Donald Trump said ‘‘Look whatever, it is what it is, he bought the country, he can do whatever he wants as long as I get the money and he doesn’t let anyone put me in a jail or prison that lacks 5 star quality links’’

Yes. How much and for how long is the real questions, luckily I live in CA and if the country dissolves we’ll just do everything ourselves. In fact, We’ll be better off as we provide 60% of the US tax revenue, and we get noting close to that in return.

This is like in Latin America when a president wins a CIA backed ‘election’ and then creates a NEW legislative branch of government that has twice the power of the current legislative goverment, it’s a very simple and obvious way to practice ‘legalism’ which is a Fascist principal of doing things that APPEAR legal. But clearly aren’t.

I’ve learned the longer you wait, and more times your debt is sold, the more likely it is whoever is trying to collect can’t produce legal proof.

Part of capitalism is a need for high consumer culture. I grew up in a Latin American culture, and there are American sub cultures that also work similarly, there’s no nuclear family. Of course your relationship with your parents and siblings are very strong and important, but you have no problem living with grandma, or having your extended family live all very close together, my family were all in the same apartment complex in an immigrant neighborhood. I grew up with my cousins, like every day, if we didn’t want to play outside we’d go to different houses to see what everyone was watching on TV, we shuffle around with the different game consoles at different houses, food was entirely communal. After I got married to a typical American partner and started raising our kids together I was very shocked to find out that some food in the house is apparently owned by someone. And eating that food is a serious offense. Anyway, people used to live very close if not in a large family home with extended families. Why was this bad for capitalism? One large house owner by an entire family of 12-22 people securely, in which no one needs to buy their own home. We’re a few cars and carpooling is a simple task, where food is distributed to the hungry without a lot of steps between grocer and table, I was wearing clothes my uncle wore when I was an adult. When everyone dresses in a similar manner and suits and work close lasted generations, a pair of taken care of shoes or boots that just get repaired every few decades, are you starting to see the problem? That NOT good for capitalism. When the concept of the nuclear family took hold there was a huge boom in home conduction, hardware stores, department stores, companies made fortunes off baby boomers, all this individualized products, razors, deodorant, soap, every stage in life requires a new variety of soap, 10 kinds of cereal to pick from, new shoes every 6mo.

Humans are Apes. Every other ape on the planet lives in large troops that mutually aid eachother and who is boss, and who is contending to take over, who has first pick of food and women, it’s based on what? Being hella aggro? Being bigger, stronger, what? Usually it comes down to who has the best social skills, who ever bonds with the most members of the troop, because when a fight ensures, it’s not about who is smart, cunning, or strong, it’s about how many apes jump in on your side. We are DEEPLY social animals. The nuclear family isolated men the most. Toxic masculinity harms men on a HUGE scale. Quietly, emotionless, provide a secure home, two or more cars, and income to spare to the family you alone protect. It’s pretty lonely. Many men don’t even have friendships, one of the worst aspects of toxic masculinity is that it’s a sign of weakness to be kind, caring, and nurturing. You know. Those aspect of social life that make every other species of ape successful. So where do men locked out of this already broken system go? They look for groups that will accept them, invite them out, bond with them socially. And who’s funding all these far right groups that do this with millions of dollars? Russia. Far right billionaires and millionaires who don’t want these men talking about WHY they are locked out of the system. If you look around you can also notice a lot of small service business aren’t run by white people. You see Hispanic, Asian, east Indian people, who ‘‘are all packed into that house like sardines’’ with a staff of related people doing the work. Consumer culture is a dead end. The Nuclear family is a dead end.

Eventually we will break down and then who survives. The armed and dangerous? Or a farmer, rancher, producer of products, doer of services, with strong social ties and distributes food, product, service, with simple bartering making sure everyone’s still alive.
