Business owners should be able to refuse service to whoever they don't want to service.

Bloodborne was the best one and they shouldn't have made more games, just kept releasing content for it.

I think the Souls games would be better if they were turn based menu driven jrpgs, with a fuckload of plot and talking and cut scenes. And combat is selecting FIGHT from a menu and watching a big number pop out and then you always win.

They're good the way they are, but I think that's an improvement they could make.

Its shame we'll never have Paper Souls

Correct with some caveats. Normal employment sure, but any kind of executive exempt position, there should be allowed some discretion for sure.


As for theaters i enjoy the movie experience, especially when they have food and beer and stuff. What sucks ut the enjoyment is the price. Its stupid to pay a ton for popcorn or poo poo. Thats dumb as hell. At least the restaurant places serve gourmet stuff.

A beer is like 8 bucks at my local theater. The food is cheap though so I suppose it balances out

If a game has unskippable dialogue or cutscenes then it had better be the best, most fun game ever to make up for making me sit through that dumb, pointless bullshit.

One of the recent need for speed games did this, except the cutscenes were all live action.

Drug testing employees is stupid and a waste of time, and completely invasive.

Unless there is an accident then check, but it should never be a condition for employment

Some companies that deal with government contracts are required to I think

By default nature has the switch flipped to "on" for allowing us to procreate. The next step of society is we need to flip that switch to off. We should all be sterilized and BOTH parties need to wear a patch to enable conception. No tests to pass to get the patch, no fee, put the patch in vending machines on the street corner for all I care. But both parties need to be wearing the patch for a couple days at least before conception to be possible. Or take a pill, or get a shot. I don't care. But conscious and deliberate action to enable procreation instead of prevent is what I'm saying. Cut down on these "oops" babies.

This is why I feel that, given the average gay couple and average straight couple, the gay couple will probably be better parents. They can't have kids by accident

The IOSM thread it looks like. Someone is changing my avatar to Gamergate stuff within seconds of the farting fairy coming back. That I get to an extent - saying Milo is a prick somehow comes off as supporting him, but w/e - but this one is a total mystery.

E; haha, changed again. I hope they know I didn't choose the previous one. :v: That's 60 bucks in one week, wtf

I also, wholeheartedly, believe that capitalism is scourge on the world; more than anything, i am an anti-capitalist. While capitalism is, in fact, working exactly as designed, that means the ever-inceasing exploitation of the working classes, imperialism, concentration of wealth, and the deadly and straight-up murderous expoitation of third-world countries, while also fuelling and encuraging racism, patriarchy and xenophobia.

I side with whoever gets us FTL travel

I was describing why Germans might exude a hate for America, not any objective truth. However let it be said, that the fact the majority of Americans are against Trump and his ideals, yet he is the leader, is not a point in your favour.

I personally think the people who voted for Trump did so because they simply can't afford to be socially conscious. The bible belt is one of the least educated areas in the country. The Republicans has exploited their ignorance by plantinf seeds of fear and making promises of making things better for Them.

I don't blame people for voting for Trump if they truly believed it was in there best intrest. I certainly blame the GOP, however.

or you don't want to vote at all because you're either voting for the reason benghazi happened, or you're voting for a man that starts a sentence without an idea of how he'll end it.

Its more that people are voting for the person who at least acknowledged their struggles, despite how clearly bs it was. Idk, I just think its wrong to judge someone because they can't afford to have principles.

Its not needlessly petty. gently caress the ignorant Southerner who votes to defund Planned Parenthood at the federal level. Their hate, spite, and ignorance effects people all over the country, not just their shithole. gently caress people that vote for Weedlord Bonerhitler and allow political strategists to win votes with misinformation and apathy instead of ideas and platforms.

Non citizens should retain all human rights absolutely, but if you are uninterested in paying attention to whats going on, you shouldnt be able to throw a wrench into the system

Where I differ from you is that instead of blaming those who against there own interests out of ignorance, fear or whatever, we should blame whoever is co-opting those emotions to push their agenda, the GOP.

I don't see how blaming them fixes things, especially when actions speak louder than words and we could very well be taking the effort to do work to improve there lives and give us the opportunity to convince them to our point of view. But I'm also an idealist.
