Think of your computer or phone like a dance club. Adblock is the bouncer you hire (download for free) that keeps ads out and let’s content in. Ads are clever and wear disguises so you have to regularly update your adblocker.

Or how about a different YA series, not written by an avowed transphobe? People should be supporting the Animorphs show is what I’m saying.

Where do I say anyone doesn’t have agency? Check your assumptions, they’re causing you to make wrong inferences.

I’d have some questions for the 46 year old. Mainly “can’t find someone your own age who’s naive enough to put up with your shit?”.

Call it ageism, but at 40 I can’t look at a 25 year old and see an equal adult. That’s still a kid in my head even if legally and practically speaking they’re an adult. I see a lot of dudes my age and older going after 20-25 year olds because their abusive tactics don’t work on older women.

You’re going to need more straw than that if you’re looking to build a man

Does he fund it to the point of no longer being a billionaire? No? Then my point stands.

You’ve effectively explained how billionaires justify not paying taxes. Now explain how they can be good people.

You phrased that better than I did.

And what in all of this enables a billionaire to be a good person? Or did you miss my initial point that being a billionaire makes it impossible to be a good person? I ask because this is still immaterial to that point.

Whether that is true or not is immaterial to my point.

See the thing is, he could live very comfortably as a hundred millionaire and help thousands of people with his excess income. Instead he hoards it. Is he actively evil like some other billionaires? No, but merely hoarding that much while others starve disqualifies him from “good person” status.

This criticism applies to every billionaire, not just Gaben.

He’s a billionaire. You can’t be a billionaire and a good person at the same time.

Don’t get me wrong Steam is the best digital storefront ever created, but Gabe could be using his money to help poor people instead of buying yachts.

The same companies who supply food to American public schools also supply food to American prisons. Make of that what you will.

There are some epochs that don’t unlock anything yet. Only MegaCrit know what those are. I’m hoping they held back a character or two.

They also need to beta test the multiplayer and with a game this reliant on RNG you need as large a test bed as possible to see where you need to make balance tweaks.

That’s a reasonable position that doesn’t invalidate the experiences of others [genuine]. There are definitely differences between heroin addiction and porn addiction, but either can be life ruining. Heroin tends to be more dangerous, but that can depend on what kind of porn the person is addicted to, just ask David Carradine.

Because porn addiction is a real thing and some people who suffer from it want help.

That’s what I’m saying, yes.

Off topic but I hate that that phrase is backwards. If you have a cake you can eat that cake or you’re in the process of eating it (“having cake”). If you eat a cake you can’t then have it other than having it in your belly.

I know I’m being pedantic and off topic, but you’re getting downvote to hell so what’s it matter?
