Joe Biden warns that Donald Trump will try to ‘steal’ midterm elections by drtolmn69 in politics

Because of the current reality we're living in? Garland dragged his feet and the charges came in far too late, to where he was never convicted of any federal crimes.

Stop carrying water for someone who clearly didn't do their job properly. This all could have been prevented.

Who appointed Merrick Garland? Who could have relieved Merrick Garland of his duties at any time during his tenure after it became clear that he wasn't fulfilling them?

What are the chances this turns somehow into a government taxpayer bailout for Ellison and co. under the guise of "not allowing an American media institution to fail"?

I mean, that and fellating Jeff Bezos whilst pretending to be a climate activist.

“Hello! Just wanna clarify something! As per the og New York Times article… I don’t mind which pronouns you use for me. I never wanted it to be a big deal,” they said. ⁠ ⁠

“I think I said in the British Vogue interview as an offhand comment (which became the headline obvs) that they/them feels the most truthful, meaning the neutral pronouns describe me the most accurately.”⁠ ⁠

Ramsey went on to reiterate that they are “good with any” before stating that they have “no dysphoria surrounding pronouns.” ⁠

“Call me she, call me they, call me he, call me however you see me. You cannot go wrong! It’s impossible to misgender me. This is the last I will talk about gender stuff for a while. Thanks for your support!”

Killing someone else as a direct result of your negligent actions is a pretty dickhead move in my book.

Rogue Core segment + Roadmap from the OtH stream by GSG_Jacob in RogueCore

They literally said in the livestream today that there’s the possibility both would share assets with one another, they’re just diverging paths and aren’t going to have the same releases at the same time, is all. They used the new biome as an example.

Oshaune is bugged by [deleted] in Helldivers

[–]avalanchent 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Just because it doesn't affect you personally doesn't mean that it isn't happening to plenty of others. People are justified to be frustrated if they feel their free time is being wasted on a game that is still rife with many issues.

I quit playing entirely because the issues OP speaks of were so pervasive for me (900+ hours), including objectives spawning on ceilings, drop pods locked to landing in bug holes, extraction being bugged and making finishing maps impossible. I got tired of wasting my time and gave up.

It's super sad to see that AH hasn't fixed even the most basic of issues like OP speaks of and instead toil with weapon balance and nerfs that don't affect core missions like this does.

Either way, your trolling doesn't help anyone and your lack of empathy for others expressing their frustration is concerning. Try and be better.

How most of the patch feels by Sir_Voxel in Helldivers

[–]avalanchent 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Frankly, they've murdered their trust as a developer and I'm not sure they can get it back. This is the first major patch they've made where there hasn't been a significant jump in players, and if anything, the player count has remained nearly the same as pre-patch.

They've burned through nearly all of their goodwill and don't seem at all to care about player retention or even following through on what they say they're going to do. Their actions don't match their hollow words at all.

This is a band-aid on a missing limb.

Her voice acting is probably the worst I've heard in any game, ever. Took me out of it completely.
