  • If you want a religion that isn't a religion you can join me in secular humanism.

    Also, kudos to you for admitting an honest mistake.

  • This is my brother-in-law. He complains about his partner and how she doesn't save like him (he makes more than her) and how they/he can't afford a house but he spent $20,000 on camera equipment last year (it's a hobby, not a job for him), has bought and sold 3 motorcycles since I've known him (progressively more expensive), and puts a lot of money into his other hobbies.

    The housing market (at least in the US) is shit and everything's overpriced right now but at some point your own choices need to be considered.

  • Obviously a guy that thinks being as dishonest as it is possible to get away with is perfectly good business.

    That's the secret to "earning" billions of dollars.

  • This right here. The US was isolationist prior to WWII but then got attacked and drawn in to active war.

    Since the mainland of US was untouched by war directly, and industry boomed post depression and during the war they came out of it better off than Europe, which had a lot of rebuilding to do.

    As a result of the war and the need for defense they established bases all across the globe and for the last 80-90 years as the political system grew more corrupt the increase of American hegemony followed.

  • My wife texted me the above image earlier and, I kid you not, this is my reply:

  • Old age, in and of itself, doesn't kill any living thing. There's always a system failure eventually. Seems like in cats that's commonly kidneys or thyroid.

  • I enjoyed it but I've never finished it because it gets repetitive and starts to feel like a grind.

    It fits my play style because I game in fits and starts so I've been playing it in chunks.

    I liked it enough to go get it for PC after playing it on Xbox GamePass years ago.

  • This is a proper unpopular opinion because, as someone who received an organ transplant from a deceased donor, I disagree with it.

    I am a huge advocate for organ donation for obvious reasons but I don't think it should come at the cost of bodily autonomy.

  • And that's a fair take but there are better ways to share that opinion than snark and insults. You can downvote, you can report it as off topic or breaking community rules or you could have even posted this comment originally instead of what you did.

    The thing is though, glamping is both more accessible to people with disabilities that prevent them from hiking deep into the woods, putting up a tent, laying on the ground etc. and also exposes camping and outdoors activities to people who might otherwise not get engaged.

    At the end of the day you're on a social network site where the whole point is community engagement and this post is engaging to the community.

  • Glamping, a portmanteau of "glamorous" and "camping," is a form of outdoor accommodation that combines the experience of traditional camping with the comforts and amenities of a hotel. It allows people to enjoy the outdoors while still having access to luxuries like comfortable beds, electricity, and even ensuite bathrooms.

  • If that's camping

    It's not. It's glamping, like the post title says.

  • I wanted to hate it because I had just read Musashi by Eiji Yoshikawa and was fascinated by Miyamoto Musashi and the game is only loosely connected to him but it sucked me in.

    I ended up playing it for a few weeks straight until I beat it and I've never forgotten it.

    • Brave Fencer Musashi
    • Limbo
    • ReCore
    • The Way
    • Inside
    • Unravel
    • Cat Quest
    • Death Squared
  • The first Syndicate game is also awesome!

  • That's not how reasonable accommodation works under ADA. If you were applying for a job that required you to be in office they could just refuse to hire.

    If you tried to force working from home at a job you already had a reasonable accommodation would be adjusting your schedule so you could utilize public transportation.

    It would be nice if people could dictate the terms but that's not what ADA protects under "reasonable accommodation".

  • Did you know, John Deere never saw a tractor.

  • Unfortunately no. Not only does monocular vision not automatically disqualify you from driving but you can still get a commercial drivers license with vision in only one eye.

  • Yes! I loved playing this game on our old 486.

  • When I left Reddit I used the tool to change all my comments to "u/Spez is a fucking loser", then once all changed I used it to mass delete, then deleted my account.

    I just checked and none of my comments resurfaced. Though maybe my contribution to Reddit was just not important in any useful way.
