I have two! One lives on top of my computer tower and sits in my lap when I game. I call him Hue because he's a slightly darker shade of blue than the other one.
The second one lives in the bed, and is there most of the time. I call him Zippo because he's a little lighter.
I'm waiting for the first wave of medical professionals who stand up and say "no" to harmful laws. It needs to happen. we need people to refuse unjust law without the lawsuit song and dance. Simply say NO! and help people anyways.
There are many leftists and minorities that have "voted strategically" time and time and time again only for things to get worse and worse.
This kind of disenfranchisement leads to apathy and low turnout.
We are told from a young age that our vote matters, and then when we are older we are told you can only vote for red fascist or blue fascist and many choose not to participate.

Absolutely this. It speaks a lot that it's easier for a millionaire to pirate the game than to get it legally. Make it easy and cheap and people will use it.
Finally got into Baldur's Gate 3, and oh boy! I get what people were saying. I'm INVESTED. I'm going Dark Urge and currently trying to figure out if I wanna be with Karlach or Shadowheart.
The thing that gets me is how often this sort of thing is happening all around us without us noticing. Every online purchase is bound to be doing this in some form or another. Every plane ticket, every uber ride. All designed to figure out the exact cost we're willing to pay for the service.
It's a shame, really. A non-centralized internet has existed before and must exist again if it's to remain useable. It's sad so many have given up because of early internet struggles. Things are even far less painful now than I remember them being in the past.
There are a lot fewer of them around now than when I was a kid. The trend continues down as we keep doing mass commercial fishing the way we do.
