Why must you bestow this cursed knowledge upon us?

Absolutely, there's a lot of planning that goes into events like this down to the wardrobes people on stage are gonna wear. Was it planned because Republicans lost their shit over the tan suit during the Obama administration and it was a jab at that? Maybe, probably, and it also serves as a way to more quickly identify shich day a soud bite is taken from and a bit harder for oppositional propaganda to stitch disparate quotes together to push an alternative narrative.

TTRPGs: first system playing in college, I've been playing and running games for various groups over the last ~13 years.

Video games: played so much Donkey Kong Country with my dad as a little kid. Never truly stopped ever since.

3d modeling/animation: It's my job, and I use it for personal reasons.

Cooking: Learned along side cooking with my parents and watching food network before it was overrun with competition cooking.

Well... were not on the other side of this yet. Were still in the sort of early 1930s Germany era where the real problems people face haven't gotten all that much better, and the fascists have made many decently successful smaller attempts at power but haven't quite succeeded in that big push for power. like the stuff that is planned in project 2025.

I don't think fascism is capable of producing competent longterm leadership. Like the ideology preselects for loyalty above all, it's rabidly anti-intellectual and scorns anyone perceived as being an intellectual elitist. It's purely emotion driven and requires ever escalating emotional rhetoric to keep the based angry at external all-powerfully weak enemies (lazy mexicans stealing your jobs, sneaky jewish bankers crashed the entire economy, thuggish high school dropout gangbangers in the inner city are criminal masterminds responsible for all the drugs flowing through rural communities who would overrun everything if they were smart enough to unify, take your pick of contradictory scapegoat.)

That's not to say incompetence means harmlessness, there's a lot of blood that has been spilled throughout history due to incompetence.

Be thankful you don't know.

If you're really curious, Ben Shaprio or the dude in the left picture, Tim Pool is the dude in the right picture, they're right wing talking heads.

You're asking an age old question about humanity that there is no answer beyond "humans are horny motherfuckers."

There's a lot more that Buttplug.io supports. It's an entire open source framework that others can build stuff onto to control sex toys. As for why these? Eh why not? Single player games don't exactly require the consent of other players if you're getting your rocks off to game controlled sex toys, and multi-player games should only be used if you do actually have consent.

Specifically for ultrakill's officially supported mod, that's just the kind of thing they'd do. They also made body pillow covers of Gabriel and V1 as official merch. And yes they are in those kinds of poses.

Yup and Ultrakill has an officially released mod that integrates with Buttplug.io.

Thanks! I still def recommend checking out the video. It's a really fascinating topic.

Sort of, basically because mercury has the small orbit it spends the most time closer on average to any other planet. The CGP Grey video someone else posted is a really good explanation as to what's going on.
