also the army made a video game to boost recruitment

the simulation thing implies we don’t have “free will” or that we don’t have control over our life (which we don’t anyway), and that scares people half to death. so, classic denial

because when you have deeply entrenched religious indoctrination, ideas about the world, life, and reality that don’t mesh with your “god” are literally personal attacks on your very identity.

some people care about this shit more than they care about anything else. you should get rid of the assumption that things need to make sense to these people

people used to get burnt at the stake for this shit. and dont’ forget how butthurt people got over the suggestion that –gasp– the earth isn’t the center of the universe

people don’t like this idea because if that’s all we are, then who is anyone to say that the inevitable equivalent man-made lump of fat with electrical activity isn’t entitled to all the same rights and status that we are

also jeebus doesn’t want you to think you can’t go on getting punished even after you’re dead

here’s another absolute gem from that time period

missed literally almost everyone when it came out saying “Looks amazing, but is just a longer Fern Gully in space.”

i guess so

I have never heard anyone call it good

i guess you missed all the things i’ve seen since the day it came out

i guess “literally almost everyone” just can’t get enough of space fern gully?

it’s weird, in decades of gaming, before (and after) DRG i’ve never had a game that i actually felt guilty for going too long without playing and giving them usage stats

i think i’m one of like 10 people in the world who thought that movie was meh af

it reminded me of dances with wolves, which was also a snoozefest, not helped by moving everything to outer space

google “dr seuss wwii propaganda” you ain’t seen nothing yet

insurance is a fucking scam that preys on the most vulnerable segment of the population in order to enrich themselves and their shareholders. and the vast majority of people think that’s just the way things are in america, therefore it’s the best possible way for things to be. what’s not to understand?

freedom of speech/press/religion was fun while it lasted

they’ll find a way to blame this on gay books in the library. again

LOL yea let’s laugh at literally every other 1st world country with universal healthcare while we pay thousands a year for insurance that doesn’t pay out

make it 8. trump doesn’t give a rat’s ass about anything but trump. everything he sharts out of his face anus is for the singular purpose of rallying his rabid cult followers to worship him. that’s it. he doesn’t give a fuck about “christian america.” or 100% white america. he wants cheap explloitable labor, which is what all of this 3 ring “deportation” shitshow is all about

in case it’s not clear, he’s not deporting 11 million people. don’t be gullible

working people voted for this

those same people will 100% toe the line when he continues to blame everything on mexicans, gays, women, obama, hillary, etc. same thing when he takes all the credit for good things that he had fuckall to do with

everyone’s just assuming that voting will be a thing at any point in the future

we’ll go to war and he’ll just declare a perpetual “emergency” and suspend whatever he needs to in order to crown himself supreme leader for life. at least it’ll be entertaining to watch all his sycophant cultists tear each other’s throats out trying to be named his successor when he finally fucking croaks

LOL are you serious? “innovation adoption” wtf

it’s not “innovation” and it’s not “adoption”

it’s legit nazi propaganda, and it’s abandonment. i sincerely hope you’re just making a half ass attempt at trolling

the funniest part of the story is the idea that anyone’s grandma in the 90s had a computer and printed recipes, instead of a handmade old growth hardwood box full of 100 year old recipes handwritten with a quill pen

edit: nvm, my brain didn’t register the “in the future” bit

good job, humanity. all it took for you to finally leave twitter was literal fascism
