  • See, when I play these types of games, I always think about what I would do in real life during a given situation. If I had the powers of a protagonist, I’d be saving lives left and right, and looking cool to boot. So, I do that in game, since my power in the real world is so limited, and frankly, boring. Playing Mass Effect trilogy again right now. My Shep looks almost uncannily like me. So, the bonds that I form with the NPCs, the actions I take to save lives of any race, and the tough decisions that accompany them just mean so much more to me, seeing a character that looks like just like me doing them. The voice does sound weird in this particular game, but Shep’s voice actor is really good so I don’t pay it too much mind!




  • I used mine to cover a job loss for food and gas, and have finally been able to knock it down after two years of buying very little to ensure most of my money goes to paying them off. It is harder than it should be to get back on my feet, especially when I am making more money than I ever have in my life, but the cost of shit also went up with my pay, so it is effectively the same as it was when I was a TEEN.







  • I really don’t understand this take at all. He just seems like a straight up fool to me. Even if he was coerced into destroying Twitter, why do people seriously go, “Oh no! There is literally nowhere else to have these kinds of discussions or rallying!” When there are in fact PLENTY and could even be MADE for these kinds of situations? Look at the Fediverse for example, but why stop there? You’ve got other silly social media sites that can be used the same way if someone actually tried hard enough. If those don’t work out, you can always find a way IF you truly do care enough.
