EDIT: I'm not 100% sure that it's not a real Trump quote and am second guessing myself

That's true, I didn't really think about maintenence costs adding on. Ideally that stuff should add value back to the house so you don't "lose" it like rent, but that all depends on the housing market forever rising to infinity.

Interesting, I didn't know about the low deposit requirements. I haven't really seen it below 10% over here, but it might well be possible.

It also depends if you're in cities or not I guess. My first house was in a small city and the rent wasn't bad there, it was just desirable to buy if possible. The next two cities I lived were capitals and rent is out of control there. Though house prices are too in those situations, so buying a place is usually cheaper but unattainable.

Is this true in the US? Its definitely not been true anywhere I've lived in Europe. A mortgage has always been cheaper for a larger property, it's just gathering the initial deposit to buy that's the hard bit.

If nothing you do matters, then the only thing that matters is what you do.

I do agree with this. However, voter apathy is literally doing nothing. If you are paying taxes, you are still contributing to and arguably passively supporting it.

Actions I would think might matter are things like protest, campaigning for a third party against the thing you are against, running yourself, or retreating from this government's rule.

It could be argued that just by living in the country and not actively opposing the issue, then you are supporting it. Saying "I don't support this thing so I didn't vote for anyone", then pay taxes to the government that does the thing and enjoy the rich society of the country that does the thing, you're more actively participating in the thing than opposing it.

It does, and that might be a nice experience, but I feel like the one player/two sticks mechanic was kind of the main point of it.

I don't feel like the game would have had the same impact on me, if I co-oped it like I did with It Takes Two (which was designed as a co-op experience).

Someone is playing Ticket To Ride and going for that longest continuous route.

Get yourself one of them Elon chips.

I tend to put bread or crepes under mine.

How can you even pick up butter with Nutella on?

Cookies aren't good? I feel like that's a spicier take than Marvel movies.

Have you been eating them like apples?

If a vote either way supports genocide and no vote does nothing to stop genocide, what's the tangible difference?

Well you live in a facist leaning and fascist sympathising country. Now what? Apathy doesn't seem like the best course of action.

It's truly a great game, but I'm unsure what a remake will bring.

This comic and all of these comments are mega wholesome.

At least from this diagram it looks like he managed to get to the end.

I'm so kooky, just putting this shoe polish all over my face.

So quirky, heading out to be a Christmas minstrel.

Too zany, punching some protesters that want me to stop.

I think the downvotes are just for the earlier comments where they didn't come off great. The turnaround post is getting positive.

And personally I loved the ankle analogy. Happy birthday!

Yeah, we are all horrified and all, but no-one is asking the pertinent question:

What did it taste like?
