I disagree. The same argument can be made that digital allows for a multiplying of films being made at shorter run times because it allows people to work faster, which is what we saw happen with rhetoric rise of digital until the writer's strike and then Avatar's success was truly when the switch over happened.

Companies no longer want to make $40 million off a film that cost $14m to make. Not if they can spend $140 million to make half a billion, or only $60m more to possibly make a full billion.

What? Stop watching fox News and read a text book.

Generally barber shops that serve alcohol are in very upscale parts of town and a haircut and beard trim after tip and tax is probably to be close to about $70 bucks. Generally.

I am also very confused why people would take their kids to one of these places.

Begins?

Have you attempted to do a search in the last 3 years. It's unuseable these days essentially.

You definitely are not American. AOC can't run for president until 28 due to her age.

18% is a huge margin in a democratic election.

@Maxcoffee

Here is what I honestly think happened: a lot of older gen x and boomers saw their reputations destroyed on Facebook during the Trump Era.

The people who didn't leave Facebook because of them just put them on mute. They only had other old people to communicate with. This didn't satisfy them though, because really their entire ideology is wrapped around triggering other people.

So they went to reddit and discovered that anonymous shit posting was safer and their Facebook went back to livelaughlove largely.

Is steams mod team part of the corporate hierarchy as many brand subreddits are?

If so, we might not be getting the full picture because I can't imagine they are behaving this way with companies who are otherwise considered brand partners.

I disagree. I find the art style to be the best thing about it, plus the controls are a world above Overwatch's.

I do wish there was an age filter option however, and that is the main reason I no longer play. 8 year old kids trying to be the next famous streamer is pretty much hell for a 33 year old man living his best child-free life.

An adults only section would make that a perfect game.

8 minutes is about how long most people in hourly quota based jobs can comfortably take a bathroom break each hour, 12 minutes or so when you factor in walking to the bathroom and washing your hands.

You are suggesting we make the app better suited to astroturfing?

That's going to come back to bite us.

You only think /politics is left wing because they banned all the left wingers.

Also, liberals aren't left wingers. Have you ever heard an anarchist or a socialist talk about a liberal?
