Isn't it obvious, Harry?
"Also what's the ethical structure behind literally enslaving a species of creatures and forcing them to cook our meals and keep our homes?"
"Well Harry you see, they're lesser than us and also they like it that way"
"........"
(Harry Potter? Not a great book series, from a not-great philosophical mind.)

I think Chicago is the only other US city that comes close, their transit is fantastic!

Are there any reputable independent gaming sites left?
I mostly just follow the nextlander crew and Jeff Gerstmann. They aren't much more than podcasts, there's little to no written work produced, and they don't really consider themselves gaming journalists, but that's pretty much what we're left with.
"Influencers" and corporate cash have largely killed games journalism.

more likely to get robbed for their gun than [...] non-carriers
Ya know what? I absolutely believe that, no evidence necessary.

If you like reading the text of the shitpost more than admiring the number of upvotes they received then you really like content more than shitposting for karma

But the prince is a sniveling snot weasel! Now, the Dread Pirate Roberts is a real kick-ass role model

Extremely confused Hexbear admin, a Lesbian Trans Jew, unironically posts and praises Stalin -- You know, the same Stalin who executed Queers and Jews
Reply in thread
Do you have proof (or literally any evidence) of their "legitimate beliefs" of Stalin as a good person, or are you extrapolating an opinion you already believe and want to fight about from the use of a single emote? Because it certainly feels like the latter until you provide anything to back up your statement.

Hanging out with my nieces/nephews I now understand most the discipline I received as a child was most likely because I was being annoying and nothing to do with right or wrong.

We are taking the same approach and every word you said landed with me, matched my experience.
I'll add that this is a VERY different strategy from the approaches taken by both my partner's and my parents.
It's not easy, but I think we're raising better humans than ourselves. On days when it's exhausting and you're burned out and you feel like you can't do it, cling to that.
You're doing great. It's worth it. Keep it up! 💚

Anybody Else Heard of Death to Smoochy (2002)?

I didn't find him particularly scary in Insomnia, but he was believable and his character had depth which meant a lot more in the context of the film.
Insomnia is still a bit underrated, buried in the larger Nolan canon. It's an incredible and inventive crime drama, but probably (one of?) Nolan's weakest. Which is to say it's broadly only like an 8/10.

what if you are the nth person on line?
Reply in thread
If you assume that each person takes at least 10 seconds to make the decision, it would take something like 2500 years for everyone currently alive to cycle through one time, at which point we'll have plenty of new people to pass the decision along to.
As long as we don't increase the human lifespan past 2500 years or fully stop reproducing, we should be okay!

What is a video game that you'd love to play, but no one has developed yet?
I really love, and really miss, healing in wow raids circa WOTLK through Cata, specifically using healnot and custom keybinds to keep people alive. I don't have time or budget for an MMO in my late 30s, nor do I see that easing up anytime soon.
I think a game where you had to do raid mechanics/puzzles while keeping NPCs alive through healing could be really fun, even without a loot grind. Or a game that dropped you into a multiplayer raid encounter without the crap around it. Either could be great.

But Simba voluntarily went into exile, de facto abdicating the throne to the next heir, which was Scar.
No pretending, Scar had a legitimate claim!
