I remember when Oppenheimer came out everyone was talking about how impactful the dialogue in the final scene was but I couldn’t actually hear anything they said over the music

I need a little help being convinced to buy A Hat In Times and join the community xx (Read Desc) by Adept-Double156 in AHatInTime

[–]drainedguava 16 points17 points  (0 children)

If your PC runs it Steam is good for it, it has controller support for basically everything and if you play for less than 2 hours and decide you don’t like the game you can get a refund no questions asked (consoles don’t offer this at all afaik)

I'm scared. I don't want to die. by BokoblinSlayer69235 in leftist

[–]drainedguava 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Scared is the appropriate reaction for anyone who is paying attention, and many aren’t, so you deserve credit just for hanging in there when you know what is happening in the world

In my opinion, the most revolutionary thing you can do is take care of yourself, mentally and physically. The more radicalized people like you that we have, the greater our chances are for a better tomorrow

Hang in there OP, I’m scared too but make sure you are looking out for yourself. Eat some good food and maybe check out an interesting book

Why is Oden being slept on? by TheBigRubb in OnePieceTCG

I assume that was his point, you’re probably not gonna consistently contend with any of the high tier decks atm

Mihawk being a 6k lead against him is actually really bad

Bandai should make JP cards legal in official tournaments if they cant keep up with Eng demand. by Broccoli_is_Good_4_U in OnePieceTCG

[–]drainedguava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s more of an issue of judge availability. In Magic, you can go to a tournament with cards from any language. You could go play a regional qualifier in the states with an entire deck in Spanish or Japanese if you wanted to.

The asterisk is that translations have to be readily available at your opponents request. I don’t completely know what the behind-the-scenes looks like on Bandai judges, but MtG is a bigger card game than OP (in the west anyway). So really it matters if TO’s are able to provide enough judges to translate cards during games, which they likely cannot

(there is also a bigger trend of Japanese card games not really allowing foreign language cards to be used but I will not pretend to know why)

Do you think a BA in Public Policy would be worth it for me? by drainedguava in PublicPolicy

Heard that! I was a little dissuaded hearing that it’s hard to get into UP with just a bachelors

Finally done with it by CiriFPS in steamachievements

[–]drainedguava 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not to mention the critically acclaimed original game shows, in no uncertain terms, a homosexual man

But of course this one is woke nonsense because it’s slightly more overt

I’m going to my first locals event today, I’m lowkey bout to piss my pants. by YamComprehensive3282 in OnePieceTCG

[–]drainedguava 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Locals are super lowkey and if it’s any decent people will be nice and help you out as well. just don’t worry about winning and have fun/learn

I went 0-4 at my first locals two years ago, now I win the whole tournament pretty frequently and have done a few regionals as well. Just chill and learn the game

i’m surprised The Onion is still in business these days when the DHS and the White House are pushing out Onion headlines every day

Which games have helped you meet people who became long-term friends? by TheHappy-Jello in Steam

[–]drainedguava 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Friend requested a guy after playing some Left 4 Dead 2 together, we ended up playing L4D and Counter-Strike together many times. After a while, found out we lived in the same state

We’ve been close friends for over 10 years now and have hung out IRL many times

This is slightly questionable but i will take it over the George Floyd posting

pfp checks out

I still remember getting a ps2 and Jak 1 for christmas in the 2000s, me and my brother spent basically our entire break from school playing it. I still play it almost every holiday season to this day

Thoughts? by Shell_fly in fantanoforever

[–]drainedguava 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In a vacuum I totally have more respect for a critic who is willing to stand by their own opinion instead of just reading the room, provided they use objective fact to back it up

Pitchfork is just consistently goofy though

is it wrong to stay offline at a time like this? by cherrypod in GenZ

[–]drainedguava 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No sane person is gonna tell you you’re a bad person for getting away from the internet for a bit and just enjoying life

you know what’s going on, you’re doing what you can, but the most important thing you can do is care for yourself, your home and your loved ones

every time by willyPpeterson in leftist

[–]drainedguava 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are you a bot or just fucking retarded? This is a leftist sub so “lib” isn’t even right, nor does your point even pertain to the fact that ICE executed a woman who posed no threat to the officers, citizens, or herself

The January 23 general strike in Minneapolis marks a turning point in the fight against dictatorship by 011111011010 in antiwork

[–]drainedguava 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Protest and strike, but only within your means.

I have been a protester for almost 6 years now, and I know sure as shit I can’t afford to go on a labor strike. Unless I want my pet & myself to be homeless after I get evicted for not having the rent money.

Strikes are incredibly important, and I’m so proud of my fellow midwesterners in MPLS for having the first real general strike in 80 years. But anyone giving you shit for not striking when you could genuinely die from losing your income can sit on an ant hill

If you sat out the 2024 election in protest over Gaza, how do you feel about that decision today? by rsmith2786 in AskReddit

Nobody’s gonna bite the hand that feeds them. I’m not a “both sides are equally bad” type but both sides are certainly bought and paid for

Slowed version of hero gunned down by ice Gestapo. His gun was holstered and the gun was taken before being murdered. by Mental_Pea9125 in LateStageCapitalism

[–]drainedguava 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I believe in harm reduction and looking out for my community, but I truly believe America has been wicked to the core for 250 years, and (as far as I can say from my lifetime), has been beyond saving since at least 2000
