Correct, There is only 1 Dakota, stop gaslighting yourself into thinking there are 2

Isn’t that an issue with the developers of those games? Steam is ultimately just a game library. If the book you check out of that library is only readable on Kindle that’s not on Steam lol

I have some opinions about 4, but nothing like the vitriol you feel towards it lol. Could I get an example of some things they removed in your opinion?

My complaints mostly boil down to how mediocre the story, world, and characters are. But I can’t think of anything they removed necessarily, just poorly implemented

But if we are talking strictly biologically speaking then we’ve got two sexes.

Not really though, I mean intersex people kinda disprove that by themselves right? Unless we aren’t defining sex by what you have between your legs but instead more of just a genetic makeup, which would mean that the 2 sexes theory is disproven by any of the millions of people who have the “wrong” chromosome pair.

The 2 biological sexes thing works as a very broad generalization but it really doesn’t hold up under scrutiny. I used to say the exact same thing until I got a dump truck of examples thrown at me lol

In my experience, people who think Taiwan belongs to China are generally the same people who think China is a glorious utopia headed by a benevolent saint Jinping.

So it’s a 50/50 toss up on bot or troll lol

It’s so easy for the propagandists to convince western racists that DPRK is backwards and underdeveloped.

This you?

Pretty sure they say wally in England/Australia.

That or I’m an idiot, that could be it too

Not sure how to help you with that one. People call for an end to vetos literally every time it’s used

I think when a Christian minister is making a statement about a guy who is VERY vocal about how his every action is influenced by his being a Christian, then a Christian denounciation feels adequate.

… I would like to hear more about this secret name…

When it’s too hot you aren’t always able to get cooler.

When it’s too cold it is always possible to get warmer. If only in a small way.

In the middle of winter you can put on another layer, wear fuzzy socks, drink a nice warm drink, hell even just blow into your hands. But in the middle of summer sometimes you just have to suffer.

I fucking love winter and no one can take that from me

I get where you’re coming from but that’s not an argument about the defining characteristics of dictatorships, that’s an argument about the existence or lack thereof of free speech.

In my opinion a better argument would be that China has 1 leader at the top of the ladder with near unquestionable power over government precedings who will remain in that position until he either dies or chooses to step down. That already would make him something analogous to a monarch, but add the regular use of military strength in forcing compliance from the masses and now we have a dictator.

Fair and based.

We are still actually an Oligarchy though lol just, like you said, closer to what we claim we are then China is

life long career politician and public figure says something political in a public space

“obviously they are just trying to stay relevant 🙄”

Look, I don’t like Chillary Clinton, like at all, but getting butt hurt about a politician saying something political about a political opponent is just fucking stupid

his defense and his followers call for an mistrial on bias.

They will anyway. Is this really the hill we are going to die on? After 8(?) years of this shit are we really going to keep spouting this rhetoric?

Trump has proven that he intends to keep violating gag orders. So it is not only clean but perfectly within the judicial systems legal power to imprison him. There’s no need to build a case here. Just do it.

Only way he wins is if half the country stays home.

I don’t have any reported statistics to back up my claims but I am fairly confident that 2020 saw an unprecedented turnout specifically because people were able to bolster their friends and family to go vote against Trump. Notably not for Biden. If I’m right then it’s not so much Trump getting more votes but Biden getting less that’s the worry

I’m thinking Dem turnout is going to be a lot lower this year just because of the general feeling of apathy around so many people of voting age. They won’t want to get peer pressured again by their friends and family. God knows the 4-5 people I convinced to go in 2020 have made it clear that they dont care for Biden and won’t want to vote for his second term.

I think if the Dems throw up a younger, more relatable candidate you’d be right on the money. But you know… Something something snatching defeat from the Jaws of victory

Which ones cyborg

Who will force them to recuse themselves? They answer to no one.

I mean I’m no expert but I do have some knowledge on the subject.

The difference is how you injest it. Our stomachs are much more resilient than our lungs. Your stomach is, for all intents and purposes, a sac of acid that dissolves mostly anything you put in it, your lungs on the other hand literally only do 1 thing all day and it’s breathe air. There are different qualities of air of course, and microparticles in it that could cause harm, but on the whole it’s more or less all the same.

Its like dumping garbage into a sink vs. a paper bag. The sink will get disgusting, and you may end up with a clogged drain, messed up pipes, or worse. But at the end of the day if you just clean the mess and don’t do it too often it will probably be fine. The paper bag on the other hand is gonna get Soggy, gross, and start falling apart in your hands. You can dry it out but it will never quite be the same…

I FUCKING LOVE POINTLESS MIDNIGHT ANXIETY! ISN’T IT SO FUNNY HOW BEING HOME ALONE CAN BE SO COMFORTABLE UNTIL IT’S 1AM AND YOUR PARTNER IS SLEEPING NEXT TO YOU AND YOU GET A COMPLETELY NONSENSICAL FEELING OF DREAD THAT YOU WOULD BE THE ONLY ONE TO NOTICE IF THERE WAS A BREA-IN? HAHAHA HA SO FUNNY THANKS ANXIETY!
