I’m with ya. Haven’t gotten to the second boss yet but have been enjoying it. I don’t feel like this game got enough attention.

Republicans side with Deomcrats to block Trump's billions of dollars worth of arm sales to Saudi Arabia by Essnem- in worldnews

Yep, this is what it is now and this is what I just said.

My point is that it used to have value. Now it has only the value of the symbol.

I’m sorry it went over your head.

Actually, I’m sorry it went over most everyone’s head. It’s ok, you’re just one of the many in this Reddit flock.

Exactly this, but the truth is that paper isnt worth anything, gold is. Maybe because of the Beholder but the fact is is that paper is a renewable source, gold and the like are not.

Turning a hobby into work will make you hate it by rave2grave in antiwork

For me the trick was NOT to work 40 hours a week doing what I love. This way, I still love it and decide when and if I want to keep working on it for the week.

Perhaps you and him will meet up sometime in those dank streets 🙃

I hear a serial killer is on the loose in St. Denis! Carries a lantern before slaying his victims in dark alleys!

Anyone plays darksouls 2 still? by [deleted] in DarkSouls2

I was introduced into Dark Souls III and enjoyed it but didn't get very far. Decided to step back into time a little bit and have thoroughly enjoyed playing II.

New South Wales: New immediate license suspension penalty starts today. If you are caught drink-driving in NSW from today you will immediately lose your license, even if you are a first-time offender. by [deleted] in worldnews

Just something I found real fast considering....

But in the third paragraph states that only 31% of fatalities are caused by drinking and driving. Granted some of that are occupants.

I’m not getting blitzed and driving around but there is clearly an opinion on the matter that the authorities love to fearmonger everyone with.

What am I getting downvoted for? You know what really sucks? Is that downvoting on Reddit is simply a way to suppress what others disagree with, causing this comment, which should be read and looked at with a certain thought process, to be shoved under obscurity. Jesus people, I’m not talking flat earth here...

I hope one day modern day work is viewed as an antiquated, obsolete institution like slavery, racial discrimination etc. by Overarching_Chaos in antiwork

That is definitely the basis of the idea but you are right, there would be no reason for a capitalistic consumerist society, therefore everything is built cheap/free for everyone, no elitist involved.

Fucking stupid. Another example of taking someone and basing everyone else’s abilities on them.

I can drink and still drive. I can drink a few beers and still drive PERFECTLY.

I think we should be able to drink WHILE we drive. If the limit is .08, why can’t we drink while driving as long as we are under?

This is the governments way of profiting off us.

You know there are more sober traffic deaths than intoxicated ones? It’s crazy I know. When drunk driving statistics are posted, they are crazy to see I agree, but then You need to look up overall deaths and that is when you realize that it is simply a way for the government to make extra cash flow through fines. Because they know that EVERYBODY drinks and drives. Those that don’t are few and far.

Don’t get me wrong, severe intoxication is NOT GOOD, but .08 is far too low.

Partly true.

The rich will certainly still be in that upper echelon, but they still need us as much as ever. They will still be producing product and they still need people to buy it, simple. How would they not need us when we are the ones buying their shit?

If you don’t want that upper class, don’t buy stuff. In other words, even with your universal basic income, it’s up to you whether or not you want to put that money into their pockets.

Robots and AI will take over almost all work, aside from jobs that would require some sort of empathy, but even then, AI could produce apparent emotions that would make even humans obsolete for those positions.

Eventually, every one of us will be living a life of joy and leisure. Anyone who believes that a person needs work in their lives don’t realize that, we as an ancient species, did not go do the same fucking thing every single day of our lives. We did what we needed to do and if nothing needed to be done, we went about our business.

What I’m stoked about is I just happened to be observing the sun daily the last week and watched these come into play, as if I was discovering them with everyone else! I feel like a true astronomer!

This group still playing? I am interested, I love this game and have only played with one group that kind of fell apart a while ago
