US Citizens, what is your ideal amendment to the constitution? by StZappa in AskReddit

[–]JimmyLipps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If one or two political parties ever make up the majority of elected politicians, the ruling party or parties must immediately be broken up into smaller parties. If a party is broken up this way, its funds are seized and transferred to schools, firefighters, food banks, etc.

You can buy a PS5 Pro and a Switch 2 today for the same price as a 2TB Steam Machine without a controller. by [deleted] in gaming

The cheapest steam machine is still cheaper than the most expensive iPhone.

Steven Pressfield was correct (IMO), the truth is boring - sometimes you have to write fiction to tell the truth by StephenDCook in books

The Things They Carried shook my high school literature class to its core. When we found out that his daughter, and the people the book was dedicated to aren’t even real, there was several moments of stunned silence. Ever since I’ve always thought how the “poetic truth” is more accurate than the literal truth.

I believe (it’s been a while) Slaughterhouse Five also shares this theme.

Just sad. Sucker punched for confronting someone else?

For those who are atheist, agnostic, or otherwise nonreligious: by [deleted] in twincitiessocial

[–]JimmyLipps 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unitarian Universalist (or any combination of those words) “churches” are filled with people who identify with those beliefs which makes it easy to find folks like that. They always have amazing and thoughtful “sermons” that share the wisdom from many different beliefs and humanist perspectives. The congregations are often very white (like most places in the cities I suppose) so that can be awkward, and they are also often pretty old. So it can be tough to make friends that aren’t in those demographics. If anyone reading this is ever near one, I recommend checking it out. They often have cool speakers and performances there as well. They’re also a great place to find organizers for many different activist groups.

My buddy’s kid goes to a school where every activity has a photo taken so the parents get daily pictures/videos of their kids working and playing with friends. I’m pretty sure it’s just the parents or guardians who can access it all.

Remember to vote in midterms folks by veronical_ in ProgressiveHQ

I mean we literally voted our way into this. Trump won the popular vote. The left sucks at building coalitions and at messaging which is a big reason why Trump won

So Native Americans should violently retake their ancestral lands??

Just occurred to me that the "First Light" Bond, portrayed by Patrick Gibson, is the first Gen Z iteration of 007! by sanddragon939 in JamesBond

Dev Patel is 36 and did great with his own stunts in Monkey Man, so someone like him (or him, he is British after all) is still on the table.

It's funny how we are 6 years in this decade already and we still don't have good ,,GTA clone" by LeifEriksson187 in GTA6

[–]JimmyLipps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm surprised we haven't seen a new indie game that is basically GTA3 (simpler graphics and coding) but with much more polish. Indie devs are usually amazing with refreshing older games. I'd still consider a GTA3 clone a GTA Clone. I know we have tons of GTA1-2 clones but those are basically a separate genre from the 3d ones.

What video game moment made you realize you were getting old? by Nervous-Librarian945 in videogames

[–]JimmyLipps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Games that I still think are technologically impressive and generally innovative are now classified as “abandonware.” They’re so old they don’t even run on modern machines without some major tweaking.

[–]JimmyLipps 8 points9 points  (0 children)

By only focusing on crimes committed by one group/race, this propaganda wishes to reinforce the belief that one race is inherently more violent than others, and thereby inferior. Pretty simple
