Unless Anon is willing to put in some serious work, like properly going back to school or busting their ass learning (and getting good at) a trade, then their life is kinda fucked.

You can't just crawl out of almost 20 years of NEETing into really any kind of job, especially without the charisma to at least try masking it.

Also fuck knows why Anon's parents just let them drop out of school and basically cease to exist outside of playing videogames for best part of two decades. That's plain bad parenting.

I like how the regular stuff is obfuscated and buried deeper than Putin's bunker, but Vampire Porn is just hanging about barely below the surface

While I honestly believe nobody can get that kind of money ethically, the fact that he actually put his money where his mouth was on philanthropy whike still alive, and almost all anonymously, is very admirable

Alas, we will now never get those three sequels that McGinn and his team had been all too willing to create. But, tragic as that is, perhaps that lack of sequels played a role in Hit & Run becoming the iconic title it is today.

Honestly I think this hits the nail on the head. The lack of a sequel for such a beloved game kept people coming back to play it, and also ensured it could never overstay its welcome.

Anon playing a dangerous game with management.

It's all well and good until they find you, figure out what you've been doing (or rather not doing), then fire you and attempt to sue you for damages.

CYA. Make at least some attempts to be noticed. If they do notice you, at least you got a little bit of easily excusable free time - if they don't, now you get the easy life AND a paper trail so they can't say "why didn't you try to tell us".

When even the most reviled dictatorships in the world are voting in favour of the UN recognising food as a right, it sure does make the US look uniquely scummy.

I think the only remotely sane person in the room was the one at the end who shouted "there are things you don't do". Albeit they're all advocating for genocide, so none of them are respectable.

Elon Musk openly flouting the rules of the platform he owns to knowingly share misinformation to disparage a woman he doesn't like...

Tell me Elon is a right wing shill without telling me he's a right-wing shill

Honestly I'm sick of living in interesting times, experiencing "once in a generation" financial crashes, or having to essentially helplessly watch a genocide take place in real time. I would have loved for us to live in a boring time where nobody would remember us outside a specific niche of archaeologists

I hate the idea of a president essentially being a monarch whilst in power, but I kinda do wish that Biden would do something to bite the anti-democracy members of the SCOTUS in the ass over this ruling

Honestly these guys are both the smartest and stupidest folks imaginable at the same time - I'm just glad it's the Russians they're screwing over this time haha

The Internet Archive is currently fighting in the courts to maintain free digital library access to over 500,000 books they own from their own collection, yet Meta uses a pirated dataset of nearly 200,000 books to train their proprietary AI and is just allowed to get away with that??

Publishers will go after a charity making fair use of their content, but not the corporation outright stealing from them. What utter bollocks.
