This is like saying I refuse to go outside because this book on nature I have is good enough, the context you get by being in the actual world helps whatever you read have more context. I’m assuming your comment was in jest, but it gave me such a gutteral reaction that I had to say something.

I had a foreign exchange student from Turkmenistan stay with my family in the US for a year and it was pretty interesting, he was able to slide into our culture pretty well, the biggest issue I remember actually came when he went back home and the government pretty much refused to let him leave the country again and treated him kind of like a potential threat. To be honest, I don’t really remember very much about Turkmenistan other than that, he didn’t talk too much on it.

I didn’t say I respected the developers, in fact I specifically said I didn’t respect them, I’m just saying that its a good game with similar gameplay mechanics to what op was looking for

Yes, but not because of universal expansion really, they’re just headed in a direction that is going to intersect at some point, likely combining the two galaxies together. This’ll be so far in the future we’ll all be long dead though, on top of it being unlikely that anything is going to even come close to our solar system

I honestly might recommend escape from tarkov, it’s just that I honestly don’t respect the devs very much. But it’s a very good game, you can play on PvE mode so no need to worry about timezones or anything like that. It has a incredibly in depth gun system since its pretty much just real gun mechanics, and I honestly love that about the game, it has taught me so much about guns and their attachments. The one thing is that it can have a low time to kill, but there’s an in depth armor mechanic to the game that can change that. On top of all that, it’s an extraction shooter, which conceptually is literally just an fps roguelite. Just a warning, it doesn’t allow Linux users if you are one, even for PvE mode, but there’s a mod you can get called SPT(single player tarkov), and it allows you to play on Linux on top of allowing you to mod it further.

It was actually dry aged beef tonight

Have recently played this for the first time, and I’m stuck on the final Riku fight, it’s excessively difficult and worst of all I just don’t really care about the characters for it to be worth it for me to finish the game, honestly a super overrated game.

I was more referring to if the roles had been swapped back in prehistoric times, when we were still evolving properly, of course matriarchal societies built post birth of civilization are going to be going about it differently, as they’d be influenced by how patriarchal it already was. What I’m saying is, say for instance spiders evolved into beings like humans, where contrary to ancient humans in most instances the females are the larger more dominant ones, that they would be doing very very similar things that we are. Also, if you seriously think that no one is giving males involuntary vasectomies you haven’t done enough research into that, let alone taking into consideration that massive amounts of males are circumcised at birth, just another kind of genital mutilation. My biggest point here is that because natural selection exists how it does, and because our ancestors happen to be built with males being dominant in that environment, it unfortunately turned out like this.

I feel like many pre builts are kind of scams, in the best case you’re paying extra for someone to basically put together Legos for you, and in the worst case you’re spending waaaaay more than you need for parts that are as good as suggested, it’s always best to just put shit together yourself, especially with tools like pcpartpicker being so easily accessible.

Yeah it sucks but it’s unfortunately the human condition, it’s wrong but you know if the positions were swapped early on that women would do the same things, we as a society need to finally accept that we have the intelligence to move past our natural origins, and throw out the preconceived notions that arose from said origins.

Imagine supporting the deaths of thousands. If you really think anyone out here is blindly supporting specifically Ukraines government, you’re fucking stupid, this is about the thousands of innocent civilians getting their lives demolished because of putins raging boner for death. He doesn’t actually give a fuck about the tiny amount of Nazis in Ukraine, of which there are unfortunately Nazis everywhere in the world Including russia, he just wants power over the region and this was the best excuse he could think of.
