    Yeah, I remember reading something, like 20ish years ago, about a woman from a wealthy family in NYC, that is a wildly paranoid adult, because her mom basically paid everyone to be her friend, planned, and paid for, their social events, and did so until she found out in her mid 20s. It wasn’t even because she was unpopular and lonely. This started when she was a toddler. Her mom just wanted complete control of everyone she interacted with, and what they did, as much as she possibly could. When she found out she just mentally imploded.



  • Singular, open, surveys online, are rarely good data. This suggests there are a lot of people, in comparison to the general population, who do not identify as definitely CIS, and presents some interesting things to think about. However, the actual scientific value of this survey is pretty poor. Online surveys are particularly bad for academic considerations, especially when there is just one.

    Dude is being a dick though. However saying you doubt the veracity of a single online survey isn’t a clear sign of bigotry. There are many reasons to doubt ANY online survey. If you would like to find out why, you can search something like “are online surveys particularly bad for scientific research”, and you will get a lot of work discussing why this is so.

    Probably didn’t have them on the app profile. She liked how he looked, and he may have approached her profile/responded to her message, in a way that socially acceptable to her, and nothing on his profile was a red flag to what she was looking for, so she agreed to meet him for coffee. Then, upon being told his hobbies are watching anime, and he has playing a video game, she lost interest, not what she was looking for though he was otherwise acceptable.


  • If you have been watching, the courts have been making rulings to liberalize gun ownership, and carry/use laws. Simultaneously they have been making rulings that have been making it easier, and easier, for cops to basically use this liberal state of gun rights as a reason to treat everyone as a lethal threat, and basically disregard a lot of your rights, like the 4th, and 5th, if they even think you have a gun. There is a blanket reason to disregard constitutional protections being crafted here.


  • The peak happened 2 years after the release, a period where they saw a massive growth as their incomplete game hit, and then saturated it’s market. The majority of the decline is being blamed on the unexpectedly high costs of the the phantom liberty DLC, and the studio’s backlash to the first release’s crunch culture. CP2077 coming out incomplete didn’t sway their customer base, leading to investors backing off. The cost of the follow-up caused investor stress, especially because of the internal strife of crunch culture, which lead to major parts of their dev teams leaving to be competition. This is what has lead investors to cash out, and thus devalue their stock. It wasn’t the incomplete game release that rocketed them to all time highs. That move saw crazy successful sales.

    Nah, they cheer it on, while the majority of their rural residents have similar levels of access to medical care as Guatemala, the immigrants are still going to be used to do the labor, and when they aren’t it will be because they have finally broken the average citizen’s QOL to the point where they will be exploited on the level of people who have to flee where they are born, as they are that desperate.
