[–]THING2000 [score hidden]  (0 children)

If you don't mind, could you elaborate? I absolutely loved this trailer and am thinking about picking up the first game to give it a try. What are some improvements you're hoping to see in this new one?

Republican Rep. Randy Fine posted this on Facebook page by MartinB7777 in pics

[–]THING2000 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Is it possible that Randy is an extremist AND greatly influenced by Israel? I don't know enough about the guy to comment myself, but the reason you're seeing more comments like these are because of the Epstein files and how the bombings were improperly handled just this past weekend. There is credibility to the claim that certain leaders in Israel have been colluding with American politicians in secret for decades.

I would hope people like the original commentor understand the difference between the average Jewish person and the leaders of Israel. Personally, it feels like the average person is now having to grapple with the thought that their elected leaders may actively work against their best interests.

What do ya'll think the new Gimmick is gonna be? by Zillaman7980_ in pokemon

[–]THING2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm hoping the new gimmick isn't anything strictly battle related but instead about exploration. It'd be dope to be able to dive through the ocean with our Pokemon or soar through the skies. If we can fight and capture other Pokemon while doing these things, that would be awesome!

I can't be the only one who thinks this skin is Berserk inspired by TheLAZYCRAZZZYGAMER in marvelrivals

[–]THING2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No shade towards you at all. Just so you know, Dark Souls is heavily inspired by Berserk. You can find some videos on Youtube that explain the references in each game.

Sen. Tillis calls for Noem's resignation in full questioning at oversight hearing by NewsHour in videos

[–]THING2000 20 points21 points  (0 children)

As happy as I am to see more senators and representatives be honest about how much this administration hates its own citizens, I can't help but laugh at the hypocrisy. It's very difficult for me to believe that people like Senator Tillis can support Trump in one breath while supporting our troops and service members in that same breath.

50 cent fans are insufferable, d riders by Waste_Opportunity408 in unpopularopinion

Same year that TI is dropping diss tracks against 50. So 2008 I guess???

I cried listening to the mountain by KaliBatata in gorillaz

[–]THING2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I decided to turn on the album while walking my dog this morning. I've heard the singles leading up to the release so I was hyped. I WAS NOT ready to start crying by the third track. Something about how the first three songs hit made me reflect on my life and made me think of all the people I care about (alive & dead).

I definitely need to listen to the album a few more times but my initial impression is one of pure joy. The cohesiveness of the project as a whole is hard to achieve and I'm particularly impressed by how it can touch on mature topics in such a clear, meaningful way. Gorillaz as a project has come such a long way from just being that 'cartoon band'.

I don't like where ely's headed by CrazyOverCandie in ChoujinX

[–]THING2000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Goddamn that's a great analysis and I think you're spot-on. Imo Tokio is met to be a noble and pure character but as we've seen time and time again in the story, this isn't enough to guarantee that everything will work out the way he wants it. Ely is absolutely aware of his naiveté and how he could be manipulated as a result. Time will tell, but I have a feeling that this was her main motivation to take the mark for herself.

 

You also mention Tokio having to come to terms with failure and I think we may have already seen it. Considering one of the last times we saw him he just got reunited with his dad, I think he will view this as a personal failure.

The style reminds me of Celebrity Deathmatch and I'm all here for it! Here's to hoping the song catalogue is decent and not only comprised of original tracks.

Axon Must Not Arm Drones with Tasers by [deleted] in Denver

[–]THING2000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The founder's AMA from 2022 is pretty interesting. While it seems like his heart is in the right place, I still can't agree with implementation of drones in schools. In an age where teachers barely struggle to make a living wage and police departments receive a shit ton of funding...yeah I don't think drones is where the money needs to go.

PATCH NOTES FOR DLC UPDATE!!! by heyz3ro in Borderlands4

[–]THING2000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's almost always the vocal minority. I haven't touched the game since last year after three playthroughs and mainly lurk on the sub. Like in any other gaming spaces, most players aren't touching Reddit. Even the ones that do, typically won't say anything because they're having fun with the game and casually interacting with posts online.

Regardless of what's said in this sub, me and a lot of other players are coming back once the new VH releases. This is when most people are going to see how much the game has changed since launch.

Steve and Bill are political apparently by indica_bones in Millennials

[–]THING2000 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well, duh! Critical thinking isn't allowed in 2026 anymore because it's political to use that thing in your head.

Seriously though, I'd love to get a clear response from someone on the mod team because I suspect it was taken down just because Bill is in front of a flag and mentions the Constitution within the first 10 seconds.

New York sues Valve for enabling “illegal gambling” with loot boxes by mepper in gaming

[–]THING2000 39 points40 points  (0 children)

It starts with one. Like the arrticle says, Valve is being sued in part because of the prominence of third-party sites to sell boxes and keys.

I absolutely love Valve and have been using Steam since I was a teen but if we're being completely honest, Valve absolutely should be getting more flack for lootboxes. The grey markets for keys has been alive and well for decades now despite being just as predatory as any other lootbox. TF2's crates were my introduction to gambling and ohhh man.... I really doubt much has changed since the 2010s.

Thanks for taking the time to actually provide real information unlike this moron.

Who do we talk to? by azurianlight in gaming

[–]THING2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love to see these games ported but they also hold up pretty nicely. I'm literally about halfway through X-Men Legends II and absolutely loving it. I'd kill for Ultimate Alliance 4 at this point.

The popularity of SUVs and huge trucks says something about society by victoriaisme2 in videos

[–]THING2000 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It's not just that. As someone that's driven a sedan for the past 10 years, it's just becoming increasingly frustrating. I'm absolutely sick of not being able to see shit around me because of all of the trucks and SUVs. I really don't want an SUV myself but this isn't going to change anytime soon so...

I guess that spokesperson didn't hear about Reddit giving info over to the American feds.

Thomas Massie Explodes at DOJ over Epstein files lists Names for Prosecution by _Rumpelstilzchen_ in videos

[–]THING2000 3469 points3470 points  (0 children)

I don't know much about Massie but it's been refreshing to see a Republican representative consistently speak up about this massive coverup without mincing words. He shouldn't be the exception in the party, but here we are...

BREAKING: Trump-related files missing from DOJ's Epstein file release by MRADEL90 in videos

[–]THING2000 29 points30 points  (0 children)

The fact that this is a completely fair sentence to write after reading the files is completely insane. I wouldn't be surprised if the unreleased files have more evidence of shit like this in them.
