What’s brainrot girlfriend?

No, no more celebrity politicians

Yeah, funny, clever. But the time for funny and clever might have passed. I think I would’ve honestly found this more impressive had he gone on there and plainly said what needs saying, presumably resulting in being taken off air.

What needs saying being “The Trump admin is using the murder of Charlie Kirk as an excuse to get rid of the first amendment.” along with other dry but important truths about Israel’s ongoing genocide, ICE raids, etc.

Personally, I block people who espouse things I believe are genuinely spiteful, hateful, or shitty. Generally, I use the block button to “curate” my experience with the intention that I can use Lemmy as brief escapism when I’m in the bathroom or on the train without having my mood affected by somebody posting something shitty.

I don’t block anyone for normal disagreements, because I’m a relatively normal adult and as such that sort of thing doesn’t bother me.

Man you are wound up so tight

Mate I’m not gonna comment on anything else you’ve said, but it’s very funny to see you immediately whine about an “ad hominem” given your other very personal insults and aggressive tone in other comments in this larger thread lol, it’s like… Grow a pair and insult people, or whinge about being insulted. Don’t do both 😂

Solves both problems really

Newsom is gonna have to get a new podcast guest :(

Someone asked you for your opinion, and you copy-pasted a chatbot response.

Weren’t the right already like… Kidnapping people off the streets? Murdering people in their homes? Wait, weren’t two democratic (ostensibly “left” to these commentators) politicians murdered earlier this year?

Didn’t a bunch of right wingers try to overthrow the US government in a globally watched coup attempt YEARS AGO???

It’s a “war” NOW? Why???

Jerry Seinfeld? The man who, at 39 years old, dated a 17 year old high school student?

Ah, rough. Groceries can be wildly expensive.

Wait, what’s your weekly grocery bill just for you?

That’s so good to hear! What’s the role?

That’s true, but I don’t want to miss out on gameplay just because the characters make me want to crawl out of my skin 😂 Astarion dies immediately for me too!

Yeah there are a lot of BG3 fans that are a bit unwilling to hear any criticism. Which is fine, they’re passionate about something they really love and they don’t need to hear my opinion 😅 You just kind of have to ignore a lot of them when you want to discuss the game.

It is sad that there are such few cases in an industry that could be so artistic! I wanna make it clear that I do have a lot of respect for indie Devs like Team Cherry for the way they’re working and the way they’re not exploiting their fans.

I have no strong feelings on whether this game, or Hollow Knight, are overhyped and I know they’re beloved. I enjoyed Hollow Knight.

I also do understand being sceptical of “beloved” products. There’s a lot of sneaky marketing tactics out there. I’m very anti-advertising, so I know I’m biased and probably a little paranoid lol

I’m absolutely not saying Team Cherry is doing some sneaky grassroots marketing campaign or anything, and I do believe that Silksong has a lot of people excited which is why we’re seeing so much chatter about it! We are not disagreeing.

I hope you’ve had a good start to the week! ✌️

Honestly I feel bad for not enjoying it. I really do wish I could stand the energy that character interactions in that game give off but I just can’t. I had to mute the game several times, especially when Karlach was around.

The whole thing is just… Too much. And all the characters keep trying to fuck you, too?? It’s so uncomfortable, and very very “young adult fiction”.

I can tell the game was made with real passion, and I wish I could have enjoyed it more. I played like 60 hours I think and loved it until anybody opened their mouths 😂

No I get it, and that in particular is a good point, but the whole “you can’t criticise this until you’ve made something equivalent” is just nothing
