@ReviewsPossum The Walmart around here has so much extra stock they are selling full sized bags for half the price of the snack bags.

I generally disapprove of your lifestyle, but that doesn't mean I want to take it away from you. I disapprove of every lifestyle.

You know how PepsiCo lowered the price of Lays products after RFK Jr. said you can't use SNAP to buy them anymore? That's because, when they could get the government (the taxpayer) to pay for their products, they had no reason to care if they were affordable to anyone who wasn't on SNAP. Now that that's no longer the case, they have to price competitively again.
The government doesn't give people TVs for "free", and that's why they're cheap.
Daniel Hershberger@dchersh
TVs are better and cheaper than 10 years ago. Groceries are worse and more expensive than 10 years ago. Same economy. Same decade. What explains the difference?

@JohnMappin Yes, China. Infamously probably American suddenly turning against a staunch ally.

@Grummz Capcom is entering the recovery phase of their eternal "get a good thing going, fuck it up, then recover again" cycle.
Stumbles were RE7, RE8, recovery started with Wilds (despite still getting it a little wrong) and now recovering with MHStories 3 and ResiRequiem

Only the western AAA market is in collapse.
This is the framing they use to excuse how badly AAA has been treating gamers for years.
The proof is easy. Look at all the Asian games and AA and Indie games that are crushing it with ZERO layoffs.

This actor triggers my fight-or-flight instinct beyond the "industry plant" vibes he gives off to me; I can't explain it but he's always got a look on his face like he's just pissed in your Coke without your knowledge as a prank and is waiting for you to take a sip.

"These two things are different because one is high status and one is low status."
Technically, correct.
A great example of promoting femininity in a masculinity skinsuit. You, too, can be a weak girl like you're supposed to, without giving up you balls, see?

Being vulnerable is not the same as being weak.

@BrandonStraka All meat is sold with water weight included.
That's why a quarter pounder ends up at 2.5-3oz per patty.
English
A shopper claims Walmart shrimp are underweight, showing a 2-lb bag weighing just 25.9 oz and pointing to excess ice as the cause.
He argues buyers are paying for frozen water, not shrimp.

@ZubyMusic As with many tools, therapy can be utilized for both good and bad.
Also as with many things, at least half of the field is definitionally below average. As more people enter the trade, that average just goes down.
English
When I was younger, I never heard about anybody going to therapy unless they were a war veteran or victim of some horrific crime.
And people were saner and better regulated back then.
I'm not convinced modern therapy helps most people. The opposite is possible.

@TheRealFatCrow @RealPostFolder Francium has a half life of 22 minutes and only ever exists in labs.

@RealPostFolder Score for the 85 kids. Sure, our kryptonite is highly radioactive but it’s also the rarest naturally occurring element due to its speed of decay. We’re. Invincible!

@RealPostFolder All I have to do is stay 23 minutes away from any lab capable of creating Francium.
I font like the french anyway.

@Cstorm1166 @PandasAndVidya @GMErectheus @earthglot @ThomBrady5 I have applied for 200 jobs, walked up to about 50 managers in person, gotten interviews that went well, then got ghosted when I mentioned i expected something in the middle of their posted salary range since I did actually have relevant experience.
English
@PandasAndVidya @GMErectheus @earthglot @ThomBrady5 Panda they had to WALK right up to the Manager to ask for a job recieved on the spot.
Millennials who apply for 200 jobs from home don't know the pain they had to go through.

I’m seeing, yet again, this surge of hatred for the Boomer generation. I’m a late season Boomer, born in 1961; I’ve worked for nearly 50 years, have been in the same profession for 37 years, I’ve routinely worked 45-60 hours a week. I don’t get why we are so vilified.

@Psychogrotesque @PandasAndVidya From what I gathered in my time as QA the expenses in rough order are-
Programming/dev
Art/animation
Legal/Licensing
Infrastructure/Maintenance.
Art and Licensing can swap based on how much is involved. Guitar Hero is obviously going to cost way more in royalties.
English
@FerretOTR @PandasAndVidya Seeing as they do license bonanzas and are constantly creating content I don’t imagine it’s inexpensive.

I got a call from the White House after this hit on Jesse Waters’ Fox News show last night about the fraud in California. There is a reason Gavin Newsom looks so terrified right now. He should be. Buckle up. The fraud investigation is about to get insane. Starting this week…

@Psychogrotesque @PandasAndVidya Most of the costs for fortnite would be related to art, animation, and development. Relatively speaking the server maintenance is cheap.
English
@FerretOTR @PandasAndVidya That and Fortnite.
Fortnite is apparently down 42% of players on average. I wonder what that thing costs to maintain?
English
I have two cat. HAHAHA TWO CAT!
Only a few people will get the reference.
English
@Psychogrotesque @PandasAndVidya Their money doesnt come from egs. It comes from licensing Unreal.
English
@PandasAndVidya I would say they are legitimately losing money because not only does EGS hemorrhage money doing free games and exclusives but Fortnite isn’t the all cost covering cash-cow it was. I would like to see their actual financials though. The stock price is still over $340 a share.

your sex life gets infinitely better when you not only stop faking orgasms, but tell men *in the moment* when what they're doing isn't working for you. do it kindly, offer up an alternative, or show them what you like in a sexy manner.
