True story for Americans: You should exercise your 2nd Amendment right unless you want only the Right to have guns.

If you actually listened to the Right's leaders, they're openly telling you that you should be picking out your favorite at the shop now.

The comments section here is pretty funny.

This isn't "The Director from L4D", this is the human touch of direct influence of game balance globally without the need to release a patch or even a hotfix, and way beyond just how many bots drop at a time. If you want to compare it to something, it might be The Wizard from Oz, pulling the cranks to drive the facade.

If The Director wasn't dumping enough zombies in general, Valve would have to patch The Director to make it do so because it's restricted to its coding limitations. A human Game Master can run it only limited to the variables the devs give him. Open new planets for plundering, change the weather, accuracy of your calldowns, the options are as limited as imagination and time.

Saying this, I don't know why they would leave this all up to Joel, you'd think there'd be a team of 3 to bounce ideas off or something.

Hot take, but I think we got a dethronement.

This is what happens when humanitarian aid is denied for weeks. When food becomes not only scarce but literally gone, there is no order, there is no line, it's every person for themselves. Just looking at some of the replies to that X post reminds me:

  1. Why I don't touch Birdsite anymore
  2. That many people are reptiles wearing human skin.
  3. That Gaza has become a death camp, run by Israel, overseen by the weakest hands the world could provide.

Y’all chomping at the bit to direct your hate at the Jewish community and using Israel as an excuse. No different from MAGA.

Ah yes, let's put to paper that anyone who could oppose Israeli occupation and seige on ANY group of people are actually anti-Jew, and then paint those same people as far-right fascists.

That'll win over people and influence them to your cause. Nice work.
