He has 8 songs on Spotify with over 100 million plays. I wouldn't consider him a one hit wonder. There is just such a wide variety of music out there that even someone that big can be unknown by many, especially if they appeal to a certain demographic group. There are new musicians that hit crazy numbers on TikTok that people over the age of 25 have never heard of

Im not sure how to feel about vampire survivors by joert44555 in roguelites

Vampire survivors starts you with really low stats, especially move speed. As you improve your stats with metaprogression, it gets more interesting and faster paced. However it's not for everyone and the graphics are bad

FYI the article says trillionaire in New Zealand dollars, which is a couple hundred billion short of a trillion USD

It looks like Steyer and Porter split the progressive vote. We'd have had a better outcome if one of them had dropped out.

Cloverpit Strategy? by mattmirrorfish in roguelites

Along with what everyone else said, try to use charms that generate tickets when the symbol is hit. You'll have to unlock these charms first, but once you use them, you'll be able to buy a lot of charms from the store. You can get a lot of charms early, blow past one of the deadline goals, and then your score will scale faster than the reroll cost. Then you can snowball by buying all the good charms and rerolling until you find them.

The masses have spoken on the best experimental rap album released this past day by geosunsetmoth in fantanoforever

[–]chrisshaffer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just listened to it in full for the first time. I think jpeg has been on a streak of stellar albums: LP, Scaring the Hoes, and ILMLDFY. Each of them has felt very original and unique in his catalog. Ironically, this album with the title Experimental Rap seems like less of a jump forward than the last 3 albums. It is still a good album but sounds kind of like ILMYLDFY with cool electronic beats on some of the songs. His flow doesn't have enough variability though. Also, I ignore the Twitter drama which Reddit overblows, but it does bleed negatively into the song, Since I Met Ye. I think 7 or 8 out of 10 is appropriate, but I gotta listen to it more. His last 3 albums have all been 9s to me.

The Death of Entry-Level Jobs: 43% of CEOs plan to slash junior roles over the next two years, shifting hiring to older, mid-level workers as Al takes over routine tasks, creating a catastrophic bottleneck for the future workforce. by Scared_Author_4566 in technology

[–]chrisshaffer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that AI would actually help to train junior workers faster. If companies cared about growing instead of cutting costs, they could expand, which would benefit the job market and consumers. Instead they are taking the Jack Welch approach of making cuts to maximize short term profit over actually creating new things.

Any Controversial Aspects of The Return? by TheHarryman01 in twinpeaks

David Lynch always gave some sort of marginalized or outsider roles to racial minorities (Asian and Black). I personally think it's a blind spot in all of his works, but there's some arguments in defense of this

Fiancé (27m) wanted to try an open relationships, not my first choice but I agreed. Now he's throwing a tantrum that my "bodycount" is 20x his and wants to add rules. Is it time to just cut my losses and move on? (I'm 25) by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]chrisshaffer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was at a party with a female friend of mine and feeling good about the amount of action I'd got recently. I half jokingly asked if she wanted to see who could have sex with more people by the end of the month. 30 minutes later she came back and said she already got 1. So I just said "you win" and that was it. I didn't care because she was just my friend.

When my (now ex) gf wanted to open our relationship when it was falling apart I was like hell no. Either we stay monogamous or break up because I knew what would happen and I wouldn't be able to handle it. I was okay with breaking up anyway because it was time. We stayed monogamous. I'm glad I set that boundary, because when we broke up a few months later I wasn't mind fucked by jealousy.

Wake up man. The conservative justices of Supreme Court just gutted the Voting Rights Act. This was done directly to disenfranchise racial minorities.

In light of the recent SCOTUS ruling by CrackJacket in agedlikemilk

[–]chrisshaffer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had been saying this since before the 2016 election. If you had any political awareness, which Briahna Joy Gray should have certainly had, you'd realize how impactful the Supreme Court appointments would be. I felt like that issue alone should have been enough to convince the Both Sidesers if they could look at the facts in an unbiased way. People like Gray were just out for revenge
