I signed up and made a post. I was shocked and then amused when somebody actually saw my post?! It made me realize I don’t understand how to even use a Twitter type of social media. Do I just post my thoughts? What’s up with that lol

I always just used Twitter as a way to see youtubers/streamers updates

I would like to add this to your argument.

People sometimes don’t know that it was a variety of people that were placed in camps in North America for various reasons during the wars.

I wasn’t a fan of fortnite until recently. Now I’m kind of into it. I played last season, and now this season, and I’m not sure how to feel about this particular one.

I’m finding people are hiding more when you get down to the last handful of people, and that kinda causes the gameplay to flatline at the later stages of the round. I find the perfect spot is when there’s a bit of organized chaos when everyone is actively fighting it out.

In the last season, it was harder to hide because there was at least one person with a radar ping type buff that revealed player locations. It kept things at a faster pace

Ehhh he’s made a lot of people angry. Enough to try to assassinate him. He might not get the happy ending you imagine.

I understand where you’re coming from, though. It’s a real shame that bad people can sometimes live better lives than good people. It doesn’t seem very just.

Nothing too exciting. Mostly, just live streaming and gaming

I assume everything is bots, so I only check out streamers, youtubers, and artists on Twitter. It was bad before the Musk takeover but now it’s borderline unusable lol

Yeah, it’s the perfect podcast game. Good for just turning your brain off for a while!

I haven’t heard of this before, I’ll have to check it out!

That makes sense! I feel like I’m always a bit caught in a catch 22 because I get that sweet, sweet dopamine hit when a video does well lol.

But yeah for the most part I’m just doing what I want to, and it’s sometimes working out and sometimes not.

For a while in September, I was on track to hit 2k subscribers in a year, and then suddenly I fell off. The algorithm/viewer are a mysterious beast haha. So I’ll keep going as long as I’m having fun

I’ve recently noticed that the tactical shooter genre has kinda fallen out of favor. Games like ghost recon, socom navy seals etc. Aren’t being made anymore. I think it’s a shame that some genres go dormant for a while.

But more than that, I just want to see developers take more risks again. Indie games have been the exception here, but I remember there being so many unique games in the early 2000’s.

I’ve been making YouTube videos/streaming in my spare time for the past year.

I feel like most of my stuff is not great, but I’ve been trying to take the approach of “doing anything is better than being a perfectionist and doing nothing”. So that’s been pretty fun. It’s cool when you do make something and can look back and say “I like that one!”

Ohh the videogame Power wash simulator is my version of this lol.

Brooo you can get the title of shithead? Why would you wana be labeled as straight when you could be shithead instead? lol. That’s what I would go for haha

I was replying to the part where you said Trump isn’t all bad.

I get that you were trying to get across that not everything is black and white, but I mean…dang it’s hard to find a good trait about the guy.

I think you gotta watch more Trump interviews. He’s an authoritarian. He’s told people twice that they would never need to vote again once he’s in office.

He said Hitler did some good things. He wants generals like Hitler had. Shit you could make a book of Trump quotes of all the awful things he’s done and said.

I mean, when federal law has been manipulated and tampered with, I think the question becomes, will people allow it to happen, or will they resist?

And at that point, I have no idea. You would be looking at mass protests and / or civil war at that point. They’re either going to have to be ready to literally fight for their rights or just give up I guess. If there’s no way to fight it “legally” (I use this in quotations because the GOP seems to want to change the rules so nobody can oppose them), then I suppose those are the only other two options.

I’m curious if this is the last resemblance of democracy the United States will see.

I’m worried for the people stuck in red states, and worried this is going to spread outside America again like it did in 2016. I feel like I must live in a very different world compared to rural americans. I can’t imagine how a fascist authoritarian would be the logical choice ever.

I would like to think blue States will put up a fight. But I guess it depends on project 2025 and how they react to that.

If they let it happen, then idk I guess that’s that.

High five for not Hitler. I swear it must be the widespread lead poisoning. Maybe we should double-check for hookworms too. They might be causing a loss of cognitive function.

All I can say is that I’m really sorry. I don’t understand why people are like this. Authoritarianism isn’t a good thing. I don’t understand how America somehow regressed further than the start of the American government.

I’m worried this will be the catalyst to things getting worse where I live, and I’m not even American. Based on 2016, this outcome won’t do us any favors either. I just hope that things turn out for the best
