at this point I have nothing but a feeling schadenfruede for Star citizen players.

Morons literally getting XP farmed by Chris Roberts.

I literally knew someone who spent like $30,000 USD on Star Citizen, Had almost all of the ships, and social engineered his way to a leadership position of an admittedly very small and inactive clan, he had all the ships, and only enough people in his clan to crew like 3 or 4 of them.

and because of his addiction, couldnt afford a place to live on his own so he had to share an apartment with like 5 roomates.

I used to be a conservative, No shit.

You know what made me change? the constant whiny bitch energy. No solutions, Just Oppose, Obstruct, and reverse everything the other guy does.

Maam, the appropriate terminology is

Fuck you, I got mine.

The Russian Invasion of Ukraine, and Russia's hybrid war against NATO in general has an incredible amount to do with why the US is the way it is now.

Not to be the crazy tinfoil hat person. but it's all connected. There is an international crime syndicate laying seige to democratic nations all over "The West" and its very likely the people with the most influence in it, are the same people who call themselves the government of Russia.

Your leaders and their Corpo-Masters have repeatedly made comments about Invading us,

you look for every opportunity to whitewash and shield the Genocidal, Warmongering terrorist regime in Russia, who I might add, considers themselves to be at war with us, and you. And during a time thats basically the opening salvo of WW3, You decide to say its the Europeans and Canadians that are treating you "nastily"

And while all this disrespect and devils advocacy for our enemies, you stamp your feet and scream that we join the team and get ready to go to war with China for you, Hardly anyone in the world had a problem with China, Until America started getting afraid that their hegemony would be challenged in the 21st century. So let me be clear, if Russia and Ukraine isnt your war, China Isnt our war.

and thats all before we even mention the flip flopping trade wars and your insistance on waging a "culture war" in your own country, slowly turning everything in the room to be something the Proud Boys would blush at.

No, America, most of us aren't on speaking terms with you right now, the best thing you can do , is shut the fuck up and go away for a while.

I know this is just DS gaslighting as usual, But also, idiots who run their mouth and disrespect others, tend to get punched in the mouth after they cross a line, a lot of people not getting their ass whooped after disrespecting others earlier in their lives, is how you get silver spoon narcissitic nepo baby sociopaths like who make up so many CEOs, Executives, and Politicians of today.

uh. Shit.

I dont even know if I have a digital copy of that game. Not that I was ever gonna play it again...

I always considered it a novelty of the 2000s. It was the game I used to break in my first gaming PC, and it wasnt' even that good of a PC to run it in the first place.

people can criticise the blaming of many things on Russia, or as Trump and the MAGA faction say, mockingly, "Russia Russia Russia" but it doesnt change the fact that they've been the beneficiary of an increasing numbers of geopolitical 180's from America and certain European countries.

The fact that the Trump Administration is so eager to whitewash and "do business" with them despite the overwhelming amount of human rights violations, war crimes, and crimes against humanity all whilst being on an aggressive nucelar saber rattling posture, is all the proof one needs that there is deep and embedded collusion.

Every day Im unsure if they are cartoonishly, megalomanically evil. or just weapons grade stupid.

what does "If needed" mean?

If its mobilizing to fight in Europe, thats one thing. * Assuming Russian agents or comprimised American/Canadian Sympathiser dont blow up our own armories.*

If its mobilizing to defend our own country from a physical invasion. Theres only one country on earth that has the means to take Canada, and it isnt a country that has to cross an ocean to do so. Repeat what I said about armories getting blown up by American sympathisers.

given our proximity and exposure to the politically turmoiled USA, and all the problems thats brought with people on edge in our own country, I dont think the Swiss solution of making every young man in the country become a reservist, and making every reservist take home an assault rifle incase of invasion, is going to work. We'll have our own Sandy Hook the next day.

American's idea of Democracy is "Its beautiful when I win, Its rigged when the bad guys win"

and regardless of who wins, the power and money must flow upward

what the actual fuck are you talking about?

Sens Fan.

Im mostly mad at you. As a fanbase. not as an individual, important distinction

Im mad because despite all the shit-talk, the ego, the pride. That TML still have a far worse playoff record then literally everyone else in the division. In the post Lockout era. Literally every team in the division has made it to at the very least, the Conference Finals, Everyone except Buffalo made it to the Finals too. Toronto has 2 series wins, Buffalo has 4. All of the others have made MULTIPLE Conference finals, Championship finals, and there's 5 or 6 cups in the division with the Florida teams.

Im mad that year after year, the rest of us have to listen to the delusional chest thumping "this year feels different". LOL

Im mad that after my team lost to you again, that you didnt go out and make it count. Leafs are 5-0 against the Sens, and 0-5 in the next round after eliminating them. The curse is mutual.

there are 31 other teams in the league. And the overwhelming Noise from the fanbase and the advertisers from MLSE / LeafsNet / Rogers / Bell. Would make you think none of them matter. Its tiring.

Its clear Toronto isnt winning a cup in this generation, I just want the noise to stop.

I think the pendulum is about to swing. Toronto's time feels like its done, Montreal and Ottawa both made it to the playoffs this year. I think they're going to come in, as Toronto and Boston are going out, and its been a long time coming.

its .ml

that means the user either said something not-nice about china or russia

or they implied america isnt 100% bad and has some redeeming features

A friend of mine is a video game developer, works for a Microsoft studio, has somehow survived like 3 or 4 layoffs and closures the last 5 years.

Im going to make a prediction.

May 2026

• GTA 6 will be delayed again
• Ubisoft will be in some form of recievership / being aquired / assets sold off

Do you care about your time being wasted after you get 20 minutes into a mission, and someone crashes your game by calling 13 Orbital gatling barrages at once?

Ive had so much time wasted by sessions getting crashed, I shoot these players on sight and leave the game now.

or kick them if Im host.

Politics is just sports now. GO TEAM. MY TEAM WIN EVERYONE ELSE DIE

And journalism is basically barstool sports.

Oh, I haven't quite figured out how to jump between instances with the same account, and I ended up making a Lemmy.world and Lemmy.CA account. I already had him blocked on world, thought the name was familiar.

endless war, LMFAO. Just like the reddit version

Mass Murder, Imperialism, Fascism, and genocide is only bad when bad america does it!

These people really should just stop pretending and sign all of their Posts with Slava Rossiya, ZOV, etc. but they'd lose 95% of their shitpost effectiveness if they did.

or maybe that wojak really does exist and theres people out there simping for a regime that wants to kill them.
