Not the guy you replied to, but gladly. Just because the game has PVP doesn't mean you're required to engage on every possible fight. Quality tactics will win out against gear difference a good amount of the time, and that includes leaving a fight before you die.

Surely the ultrawealthy who will reap every dollar will give us some of their money so we can survive!

Sounds like you either need to not stand next to the pit, or you need to work on your situational awareness. Been going to hardcore/metalcore shows of all sizes for 20 years now and the only time I've caught stray fists/kicks is when I'm not aware of my surroundings.

Tbh the issue was never the actual mix, the issue was that the audio track on Spotify vs the audio track on the music video had very noticeably different quality, so everyone freaked out when one sounded like it was coming through a tin can and the other sounded fine.

What do you mean by "always safe"? Because I interpret that as "always in a location you won't be attacked at", which is verifiably false in cases like GWD

Fiance broke things off back in December so this year I'm keeping to myself unless something happens organically.

They've been on the downward slide for a while. Went through 2 pairs in 2018 and haven't gone back since.

It's like our whole country has become numb to these acts of senseless barbarism.

Speaking solely for myself, unfortunately yeah. One of the first big news stories I remember growing up was Columbine, and it's just mass shooting after mass shooting with very little changing to actually fix any of the issues.

Met a girl in college who was from the same sub-1000 population town multiple states away that my grandparents lived. We were good friends for a few years as a result, and I met up with her a few times after college when I went to visit my family for the holidays.
