Out of all the underhanded, racist shit that got slung at Mamdani during the campaign, I think the very worst was the claim that New York would have "another 9/11" under him as mayor. What the fuck does the mayor have to do with 9/11? Is there a secret battery of anti-aircraft missiles that he's supposed to be in charge of???

I'm not familiar with Plasticman, but all the rom site lawsuits that I know about from the past several years involved sites that were either charging money or running ads to make money from pirate downloads. I could be mistaken on that front.

Nintendo of Japan doesn't file lawsuits against DS emulators either. Sony is a Japanese company; they sued Bleem and lost but that was more than 20 years ago. There are emulators for PS3, PS Vita, and PS4 - all platforms for which Sony still hosts network infrastructure and operates digital storefronts - and AFAIK none of them have been subject to legal threats.

honestly though, most game companies are pretty chill about the existence of emulators. Sure there have been lawsuits about Switch rom sites and Switch emulators - which are about currently-selling consoles, just as the post concedes.

The guy in the picture is absolutely not enamored with the emotional maturity of younger women. In fact, rather the opposite - he wants a woman so young that she doesn't have the experience and context to recognize him as a predator and a parasite.

"Laser focused" in the same way that a cat could be say to be "laser focused"
