Forget the next 100 days. We've got like...3 more years of this. 3 more years.

And all I've been seeing so far is just people pointing fingers and saying bold things, but doing fuck all about it. Especially the public, who think they're going to be saved by some one-man army or some deity or some karma system when quite frankly, they're all fictitious. Getting off your ass and doing something about it is to much of a chore for them.

It's still baffling to know that 87% of nearly all games are on the verge of or already had been forgotten because the industry operates on this mantra of "if we don't think it'll turn a profit, don't bother with it and if anyone pirates it we'll still profit through lawsuits!". If they truly have had it their way and no opposition gets in between them, they would happily have let so many libraries die out. And then we'll only be left with regurgitated bundles that they hand pick themselves, to release.

Your nostalgia is just simply another marketing strategy.

I stopped using Firefox for four core reasons:

Their investment into AI How they submit and work with their Google overlords to some degree Their browser putting in more and more unnecessary and unasked features (like Firefox account for one) Their Terms of Service

Nobody fears Trump, he's just a fat, aging and delusional buffoon who only shouts and lies like it is his second nature behind breathing.

That's why I call the Super Bowl the Commercial Bowl. It's one of the American's biggest hypocrisies. We bitch and gripe about seeing so many ads and commercials, but we take one day out of the year to focus on one sports event that are now primarily known for commercials, trailers and reveals.

AND THEN WE GO BACK TO BITCHING ABOUT COMMERCIALS THE NEXT FUCKING DAY! THIS IS WHY WE WILL ALWAYS SEE TONS OF COMMERCIALS AND ADS!

Golf is offensively boring, because it is such an elitist sport, takes way too much land to even play, we're talking multiple football fields and stadiums here. The only appeal it attracts are just richie losers with boring personalities, older people and just plain elitist people. The only time Golf got even remotely interesting, was when Tiger Wood was playing. But since that era is long and gone, it is straight back to the basics.

Honorable mentions:

Racing - All of it. I don't care if it's Nascar, Formula 1, Truck Series .etc You are essentially watching people go around and around any track. All the while, corporate sponsorships galore, everything is a walking living billboard for so many sponsored companies trying to remind you what to buy or subscribe.

Poker - I loathed the days when sports networks decided, even ESPN for a while, to broadcast Poker events. Just watching a bunch of random gamblers, at a table, playing cards, for hours. What a productive event to broadcast...

The Kentucky Derby - Predates vehicular racing, only with horses and not as much sponsorship. It's just another venue to gamble at and disgusts me it is over the lives of horses.

All Olympic Events - The only things the Olympics are currently famous for, are what's going on around it politically and whether there's controversy. It has lost a lot of relevance and importance for decades now.

This administration was established for one goal and one goal only - destroy shit. They're doing that with tremendous success.

Asking for anything else is obviously out of their depth, every single one of them.
