Didn’t the original GTA/RDR writers leave after finishing RDR2 anyway? Another worry I have is that this game will have none of the story/writing that made the previous games great, and is just a Rock star cash grab because they own the IP.
I definitely get it. Ecological fallout keeps me up in cold sweats more nights than not. I’m not sure most people realize how bad it could get, either. All the trees in the world don’t make enough oxygen to replace the oxygen we’d need if the cyanobacteria in the ocean dies out, and it’s getting perilous with the acidification of the ocean.
That said, I do still see raising a child well as an act of hope for the future. As a parent, that’s my most important mission. Could they possibly die/suffer? Yes, but unfortunately that’s a risk that all parents run by having a child (and all people run by being alive), no matter what the cause turns out to be. Climate disaster, leukemia, car wreck, it all nets the same thing— pain and suffering for your child. I guess I just take the stance of the Man and the Boy in the Road: we’re the ones that carry the fire, and we have to keep carrying it to keep hope and other good things alive.
I’m not saying everyone needs to have kids though! It’s rewarding, but this shit is hard as fuck. It’s not for everyone. Hell, it wasn’t for me until I aged about three decades and did serious work on myself. Adoption is also an option, though harder to do than most people think unfortunately :/
While many beautiful things are passing away, that implies that there aren’t still beautiful things here worth fighting for. I see value in bringing new people into the world and helping them love it and it’s life like I do. The world needs more people who care fighting for it, not less.
That’s hilarious, 2 was my number one choice, and 5 was runner up if 2 wasn’t an option

I mean, yeah. Young people of both genders are doing really poorly. Some people want to really naval gaze it and throw pity parties about how men are just so put upon and lonely, but so are the gals and theys.
It’s just that the boys are being offered a solution of basically a heirarchy-cult (read: fascism) where instead of being shat on like the rest of us, they are—in this narrative—meant to be elevated above us.
It’s the same bullshit that got the white poor rednecks voting for billionaire grifters.
I’ll definitely give it a go! Been meaning to do another binge anyway. I think the last season I even saw was the one using them drowning as a plot device
Dang, the characters are my favorite part of lost :/
Always sunny is very hit or miss, and I haven’t properly enjoyed a season since 2018 I don’t think, but the ones that do hit knock out out of the park for me. My spouse and I quote it frequently
I felt the exact same way, you just brought back memories of watching it… The dream sequences stood out as extra pretentious in my mind
Bro season 2 is suuuuuuch a slog. I got into it for the mystery and esoteric horror imagery, and I understand that they were trying to emulate a soap opera for season 2, but it’s just so long and uninteresting to me.
It’s been such a road block to getting to Firewalk With Me and The Return :/
I remember the exact episode that I noped out of forever with Supernatural: when they brought in Snookie as a cross road demon cameo. Literally stood up and left my mom to watch the rest without me lol. I had already thought it sucked for a while though, yeah. I can tolerate season six okay, but it was definitely a very noticeable quality drop.
…really? I liked steins gate okay for what it was, but to me that’s like comparing a fine dining experience to a chain restaurant.
Damn, I’m the complete opposite. The tightly knit and well-thought-out, dense story telling felt very compelling to me. It felt refreshing to see a show that trusted its audience to keep up with it instead of spoon feeding the information to you. Not many shows/movies do that nowadays.
Funny, the Talking Dead was a show that aired after that night’s episode every week back in the day. It was actually a highlight for me; they’d have the actors and effects artists in to discuss behind the scenes stuff. It was very fun watching Greg Nicotero talk shop
I got a kobo recently and like it a lot. I got the sage because the screen is about the size of a manga page, which I knew I would be reading a lot of. I keep it in airplane mode most of the time and use Calibre to load it up. The system works well for me
Bethesda isn’t the one remaking it
If you don’t think the same of a vulva, then you’re only outing yourself as having incredibly little imagination/experience with them. CIA couldn’t have gotten that out of me, honestly.
