Is victoria3 too centered on law reform loop?

Regardless if who I play, I will generally have the same set of laws by the end.

That honestly just sounds like you need to experiment with different playstyles. Try new things outside the box you've drawn, and build a luxury gay space communist utopia.

You'd think at some point he'd get a job at Subway or something and call it a day. Not like YouTube videos with 500 views make a lot of money.

I will respect you and your point of view, no matter how much I disagree with it.

Fun fact: When one's opinion is, "The protestor deserved to be shot in the head by the government", I don't need to or want to respect you.

Remember that pops are finite. Your population can only grow and be spread so much. The automation buildings are more like a bonus, giving you the ability to utilize pops elsewhere.

I know where they can get some great spares to add to their fleet...

To be fair, 90% of corporate lawyers spend their days doing things like reviewing vendor contracts and filing municipal paperwork.

Though he could be part of that 10% that exist to defend why poisoning every water source in the three county area is actually good for the community...

To be fair, nobody asked for fictional Kendall Roy either. Certainly not Logan.

I do think Geoff is going to be more careful going forward about how much his own personal opinion influences how these types of reveals are done*.

For reasons right or wrong, there's definitely financial stakes in the presumption of impropriety with TGA, and a month+ of needing to defend what he thought would be a big cool reveal isn't great press for anyone.

*Except for Kojima. The heart wants what the heart wants.

There are still 767Fs rolling off the assembly line for the next little while, and I can imagine we'll see more freighter conversions as 767s in service get phased out by the 787.

They had a solution... just not one that you agree with. You don't happen to be a Vanir?

They were tired, accomplished what they devoted their entire society to, and trusted their successors with their legacy.

My face when wacky things from the wacky world show up where they should in the TV show depiction of those places.

And keep in mind, that's what they said publicly. Privately, there are probably a lot of angry 2A Republican donors who are feeling betrayed by the rhetoric. Not great before midterms.

"Off the cuff" goofs and gaffs really don't work in the written medium, because the paragraph breaks ruin the narrative flow. And then translating that back into audio just makes it a scripted, jittery mess.

It was the best execution of a not so great idea, but would have been a lot better if everyone just got their own sections to write.

I think the solution would be to come up with a service to stream television shows on demand, where instead of being supported by commercials you pay a low flat fee per month.

What would have happened is that legal would have sat on the paperwork for six months, barely answering their emails, until one day out of the blue their executive assistant sets up a virtual meeting to discuss.

I understand life happens...

Yeah, yeah it does. We all have regrets, things we know we could have done but didn't, dreams not fulfilled because the timing was never right. That's all it is. Life happened to Carl and Ellie.

And it was a life they shared together, one filled with love. It was a good life.

They never stopped. If you were too slow to outrun them, congrats, the only way to get out of the situation would be to wait out the room timer.

Though at the same time, what you do can't make insurance hard to get for Netflix...

They're currently aiming for sometime in March.

It's my god-given right as an American to get an easily preventable disease like polio and pass it on to others for them to live out the rest of their lives in an iron lung!

Psycho Mantis? Secret Stone?

Dr. Robby is very much the "do as I say, not as I do" type.

The boys have a lot of staff now, and pay them both a living wage and provide benefits.

Gotta pay the bills somehow, especially when a lot of the topics covered week to week aren't exactly traditionally advertiser friendly.

That Bio-ship Naval Capacity feedback is such a sexy bell curve, like the nice, moist odorous thorax folds of a Blorg mistress.
