Suffice to say, you have a rough start of it. You’re born into the peasantry. You’re fragile. You can’t fight your way out of a wet cardboard box. I don’t know why this stuck with me in particular, but you’re illiterate. As you progress, life gets easier. Point being, the roleplay necessitates hard as hell combat and lack of QOL stuff.

IDK I’m into swords and horsies. Give it a shot, I’d say.

Absolutely. Portraying a relationship as less meaningful unless there are romantic underpinnings somewhere is weird. It’s just the “checkbox insert” thing cynically insinuates that they like had a gayness quota to fill. Whatever, my point is that it’s undeniably a good game. Check it out if you’re into medieval Europe stuff. You don’t have to play the first one, although you’d be missing out.

It runs so much better than the first KC:D. Good job, Warhorse Studios.

By the by, someone playing the game for an additional 19 hours after giving it a thumbs down on Steam for woke DEI speaks to its quality.

Actually the preferred term is illegal aliens. I omit the latter because calling a human being an alien is the actual dehumanising part. Spare me the insipid fuckin moralisation.

You don’t avoid tariffs per se. When the good enters the country, the tariff is paid to customs. It’s just an import tax. Now to recoup the loss from that tariff, it will be sold to you at a markup. You can still pay Canadian and Mexican goods, but the best thing you can do is optimize shit where you live.

My recommendation to you would be to buy less if you can help it. Don’t use Amazon if you can help it. Legumes, grains, dairy, produce, water, cheap protein, all bought locally. If you can purchase from illegals even better. I got this guy that sells me honey on my way back from work. It’s fire. Look at it as a little challenge you impose on yourself. You don’t need to do it perfectly. If enough people do it imperfectly, the corporate concerns that got you all into this mess will feel the hurt.

He sure could. Did you know that USPS is technically a government-granted monopoly by way of the Private Express Statutes?

Drumpf could grant X (The everything App (Formerly Known As Twitter)) the same privileges. Maybe not directly, but ultimately it’d have the same result, if they created a service that routed payments through it, and forced citizens to use said service and then grant said service a monopoly.

Heartbreaking. I’d listen to this guy’s readings of H.P. Lovecraft while I was working. RIP.

While Israel is crashing the fuck out and fragging kids during the ceasefire, Muskolini hit a sieg that the fuhrer would have trouble matching in energy. That shit had momentum to it. He wound that mother up like Popeye. Don’t let me catch anyone calling this a dogwhistle.

If you can afford to not purchase american goods & services and you’re not doing so, you’re complicit. Let it be known.

From an outsider’s perspective, it seems to me that the US got here by not being equally as petty. Lie, cheat, defame, appeal to tribalism, argue in bad faith. Populism is the meta and democrats need to get with it, cuz the whole world is on the line.
