  • I’m sorry to be so late with my reaction, but I really appreciate your time and effort to type out a thoughtfull response to my rage-post. I get where you are coming from, and salute your efforts supporting progressive politics. Your reaction initially struck me the wrong way, somehow, hence my response. I can see where you are coming from, and you are right to stand by your principles and wanting to improve the message. Still, it might have been better to make very clear where you stand and what the purpose of the initial response was, it came over, on me at least, like you found this one point and wanted to use it to invalidate Mamdani’s entire platform.



  • money filters out useless endeavours.

    That might have been true once, if ever, but it’s certainly not true anymore. Actually fabulation is where most of the money is. Most ‘investors’ have gotten rich by accident and by an incredible amount of luck. They will tell you it was hard work, swear and blood but that is never true, it’s being born in the right family and being in the right place at the time. These people aren’t any smarter or better then you and me. And are just as susceptible to bullshit as you and me. Maybe even more so, because they think there exceptional skill has gotten them where they are. This means they will put there money quite easily in any endeavour that sounds plausible and/or profitable on their mind, but what usually is complete nonsense. What is more, once a few of these have put money on the table, fomo kicks in and all the bro’s from the gym want in too, kicking of a cycle of complete and utter waste of money. All the while, telling everyone that this, THIS, this what the have put money on, is the next big thing.







  • I’m one of the biggest fans of the DOOM franchise, I’ve played all the versions since the original one in 1993. But I don’t care if I play it now or in half a year. Or a year for that matter. Never really understood why having it first matters to anyone. I’ll be here when the prices drop.

    I was stupid enough to buy Spacemarine 2, when it came out, at full price (mostly because I loved Boltgun so much) and that was a great lesson about how you should wait around a bit before actually buying a game. It would have been a fun game for 15 or even 20 euro, but it’s not worth 70 euro. I Should have bought Helldivers, anyway 😓
