I prefer to think of myself as an Epsilon Male.

As in, "Y the fuck are you like this, bro?"

No cummie

In Asia, it's a nightmare.

The PokeStops and events are plentiful and raids are easy to win and great.

But gyms, man. They don't change because of the smurf accounts. I stopped being able to get free coins because people would walk around my city with corkboards with 6-8 phones, and any time I knocked out a Pokémon at a gym, a new one was immediately in its place.

No more free coins, so I quit entirely.

You also do it alone.

People generally used to live with their extended families.

The tasks you're describing were generally spread out between 4-8 grown-ass adults.

Yep. The Romans fucked themselves sideways doing this a few times. You can have all the soldiers or you can have some farmers and skilled laborers. You can't have both.

Imagine Vietnam-era US, but it was willing to sacrifice every warm body within its borders to win.

Like the US, I think Russia is on a collision course with failure. But they're going to take it a lot farther before waving a white flag. So much so that it will take the country decades to recover.

And Ukraine won't be looking too hot at that point anymore, either.

"Listen up, you gonk-brained corpo apologist. They're trying to take something from us that we can never get back. And I plan to stop it. You need to decide whether you're on board, or in my way.

So, I'll say it one more time.

The card says moops, choom."

No no.

See, we ran the Numbies.

China Numbies Go Down.

Numbies supposed to Go Up.

China is doom.

/s

This strain of brainworm never ceases to amaze me. I'm not a tankie, either and I hate the mainland with a passion. But counting China completely out when it's clowning the rest of the world on infrastructure right now is just plain mouth-breather stupid.

Oh, good.

Finally-- a keto-friendly beer!

You ever watch Requiem For A Dream?

Italy, but everything is made of hot dogs.

It truly was a transformation for them.

Given, I think most of their early video game career was spent in Mississippi, which would make any human alive miserable.

But yeah, hats off to Commander Sterling. There's a vivaciousness there now that is nothing but a pleasure to see.
