his wealth and social media company amps up his midlife crisis to the level of performance art with a global reach

i hope his brain is actually regressing from the K as he retreats deeper into fantasy and just unbirths himself

yeah i've seen so many threads in the paradox forums of people trying to explain that it doesn't mean that Madonna song or the Ferengi but is actually a philosophical outlook on how the universe works lol

i love Stellaris but god i wish i could run large galaxies with lots of empires into the late game without the sluggishness.

also i've never tried a Hive Mind. i need to RP hard to keep my interest and it seems difficult since your empire is basically just you

i really want to try Machine Age because i love the idea of non-Gesalt sapient machine empires. i'll probably scoop up the new DLCs on sale eventually and give it another run when i get the craving

late reply but i saw that ep as a kid and immediately thought it was about the Troubles. really soured me on the IRA until I realized they were actually a good thing

i forgot all about the subspace teleporters though! it was scary how OP they seemed despite the super cancer. you'd think the Dominion would have no problem handing the tech out to all their slave warriors but hey that's Star Trek for you. everything is so self-contained until DS9 and maybe Lower Decks

true but when you're weak from thirst and hunger it might be easier to pull a trigger vs engage in close quarters combat or throw objects

mine just lives in amber jars in my freezer for eternity

 

i've talked to left and right wingers in person about this and most seem to agree with this concept or contributed to it. at the vaguest level it's perceived as two groups, the neoliberals/neocons and the populists. the populists have a left (berniecrat, demsoc) and right (trumpian, nazbol-lite) wing. the neos are all the old guard repubs (mitch) and centrist/corporatecrats. at their most basic understanding of this they believe the populists are trying to help the people while the neos only care about the markets. obviously this struggle is being heavily catalyzed by the 2k checks.
