Without the Republican New York, it looks like a late 80s map with stronger democrats.

Based, thank you for your vote

I'm in the process of getting my license, because the fucking countryside means either that, two and a half plus hours' daily commutes or unemployment.

Fuck me, my first lesson involving actual driving was one of the most stressful experiences of my life. Especially since, from talking to people I know online and IRL, I got thrown into an unusually deep end immediately and the instructor kept screaming at me.

I was able to try my mom's small car after that in a public training area and the much lower power, not needing to actively look down to see the speed, RPM, etc., not being in city traffic and not having a screaming old guy who probably learned this job in the army next to me made it a significantly more pleasant experience.

If public transportation were more like in Berlin or Japan, there'd be absolutely 0 competition from cars.

Slayers is great, especially the first two seasons, before it went anime original.

Oh hey, my family did this back in early 2010s Italy. The local gold and silver dealership proudly displayed a copy of L. Ron Hubbard's Dianetics near the counter, that was fun.

New Windows feature... same as a virus?

Iowa man hauls grain, becomes involved in a minor diplomatic incident. Meanwhile, someone else on the ship wonders if he's fated to become his own ancestor.

Compare that with Ukraine's 90% approval of independence in 1991.

71,5% for staying in the USSR in the March '91 referendum (83,5% turnout) - 92% against in the December 1991 one (84% turnout)

The public opinion turned around very fast in one year. Then the Communist Party and other left wing parties were the strongest in the late 90s. It's like Lenin's quote about there being weeks where decades happen. There's no reason why it could not happen again or elsewhere.

Nah, it's the New Left -> Neoliberal pipeline, except for some reason they refused to admit it for themselves unlike in most other countries.

Some still can be considered leftists in spite of questionable views on foreign policy, but the majority are r/neoliberal types. Then there's the sizeable amount of racists and clash of civilization types.

Yeah, it's a decent site. Their reviews are a good way to find out what seasonals are interesting, which are horny nonsense... and sometimes praise is given to shows that are both.

I read that this weird aspect has in fact been toned down from the original game where unless you decide to involve yourself in a romantic relationship with the female social links, you can't max then which... I don't know what to say about it.

Yeah, the female route (from the PSP port and controversially not adapted to the remake) adds the innovation of... being able to not romance social links of the opposite sex. Also one of the characters rejects you no matter what. Though of course it has a very controversial romance choice which yea, was a huge L from ATLUS.

I haven't played the remake, so I can't comment on the music, but the best part of Persona 3 has to be the story imo.

However, in terms of the soundtrack, you can't beat the atmosphere of Persona 1 on the PS1 in my opinion, even if Persona 3 has a lot of bangers.
