It's a very good point. Being nice is hard work. Why the fuck would anyone keep doing around the clock?
I mean look at Canadians. They'll say sorry then pull out your kidneys with their bare hands and use them as hockey pucks or waterboard you with maple syrup.

People need a place where they can be an asshole in peace.

It's about pay. If the market is flooded, the hospitals will be free to lower their wages substantially because they'll have more replacements available or they'll be working with more people on the same budget.

This reminds me of Star Trek Voyager's Chakotay(?) and total fraud that "helped" with the native background.

On game shop websites looking for some sweet deals. But I'm a cheap bastard, so I'm only just looking.

Right now I'm struggling with buying Divinity Original Sin at 8€, at an 80% discount from 40€, because I think it's expensive.

Edit: Interestingly, had it been 80% of 30€, which is 6€, I would've bought it without hesitation.

When you start to question how things work and why things work that way, you begin to lose connection to what is considered the "normal train of thought".

Think of it this way, if the government is lying to you, then every governmental institution is also lying to you. Everything you learned in school is a lie by the government, every law made is a lie by the government, every notion you know is a lie made by the government looking to control you.
So the law is not a law you need to respect, the knowledge you were taught is not something to follow, and the people in charge are not in charge of you.
It's a breakaway from the system, independence of sort. Fight the power! gone sideways.

We call that addiction.

Damn caffeine junkies...

The best part is that you can everything exactly as they want and it still won't be good enough.

The goblins I know don't brood. They plot.

Yeah, the list is hit or miss. Some of the games are genuinely good and the recent baby diaper toss just seems childish, while some games are just plain bad regardless.

That's an opinion, not a fact. Here's another opinion.

Constantine adopted Christianity because the people adopted Christianity and if he didn't follow suit, bad shit would've happened, mostly to him.
And the capital was moved to Constantinople to account for the growing asian influence that was beginning to threaten the empire. The west fucking up after that would have happened regardless of the capital being there.

The Abbasids fucked up the same way and no one gives them shit about it.
