Also known as snooggums on midwest.social and kbin.social.

  • They have Initiative if they are able to act on their own based on their training. As in they don't require being told to do their job all the time, they just do it.

    If you don't bother with training then you want self starters and hopefully you are fine with whatever shenanigans they come up with.

  • I stuck on rule 14 or so where you have to know the country based on street maps, but did have to look up today's wordle (rule 12?) since I don't play that.

  • That doesn't make any sense as a statement. It sounds like you can't force freedom on people, but yeah you can make them free without consent but I don't get how that makes sense in this context.

    Multiple countries show socialism works perfectly fine for essential and shared services and other things a society needs. It doesn't work for everything, which is why so many countries are a blend of socialist public stuff like universal healthcare, free education, and those kinds of things whle still having capitalism in the firm of private for profit companies for non-essential stuff like restaurants and clothing stores.

    Note that if the country has socialist in the name it probably isn't actually socialist in practice.

  • I appreciate you giving artists credit so I can go find more of their stuff to steal.

  • We just lost a million people directly to covid and it resulted in public support for vaccines, masking, and other health prevention dropping. If 2 million died I would have expected Republicans to run around injecting people with diseases directly to speed up the rapture.

  • 30+ years is old for sure, and platforms fit in that range.

    20+ years could be debated, but I consider that old too.

    Being old is not a negative, just a description about how long something has been around.

  • I hear it has a good story and clever platformer type stuff. I picked up the first one and dropped it quickly because I remembered that I don't like platformers.

    Good to see people that do enjoy them get great games!

  • Dude, platformers like Hollow Knight were popular in arcades back in the 80s and d early 90s. Contra (87) and Metal Slug (96) are the first two that came to mind but there were tons of others.

    They were literally arcade games and adapted to new mediums like home gaming systems and computers.

  • With Florida ditching vaccine requirements it looks like the East Coast/West Coast feud is going to pick back up again.

  • This upsets me and I demand an apology.

  • It didn't make him smarter.

  • That would help, but it isn't just the money. Both Zohran Mamdani and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez were able to secure offices when they were right around 30 years old and both lacked solid support from their own party. Entrenched political parties are arguably an even bigger barrier to involving younger participation in government, not just because the parties control their own purse strings but because they resist up and coming candidates by treating office holders like they have tenure.

  • Yes, but that would require learning from history and we suck at that.

  • That is actually a good reason to have a wide variety of ages in government, so that there is a mix of those connected to the world today and those that have more wisdom.

  • That was a pretty great time for middle class white people!

    You have brought a curse upon your house!
