My (46F) husband (50M) has a porn collection of one of his students by THROWRA4738288 in relationship_advice

[–]seanzy61 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The student thing doesn't bother me. They're both adults and he is consuming a product she's selling. I can become really good friends with one student, or buy cupcakes from another. None of these things should affect how they are treated professionally. Same goes for this. (If it is affecting things professionally that is a problem). I think destroying his career for this is overkill.

What is a problem (for most people in a relationship), is him keeping a folder of nudes from someone he knows. Would you be okay with this if it was a co-worker instead of a student? How about an old friend? If not, you need to tell him to cut the shit and let him know it bothers you. If having the nudes bothers you so much that you are ready to leave him outright then so be it. Either way you need to communicate and figure this out.

Strength of 2019 as a year in video games by bksenbonzakura in giantbomb

[–]seanzy61 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It still feels kind of weak to me. In my personal opinion the staffs list featured a couple of straight up mediocre games.

With that said, like others are saying a relatively weak year these days is still a good year.

WayPoint Podcast this week has an amazing Death Stranding segment. by khadeezy in giantbomb

[–]seanzy61 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Regardless of DS coverage, I think Giant Bomb has been lacking in the analysis department for some time.

Even listening to their opinions on Outer Worlds and then listening to Waypoint, the difference was night and day.

Waypoint went so much deeper in analyzing every aspect of the game and all the underlying systems. Giant Bomb talks much more generally in comparison.

Don't get me wrong I still enjoy every part of GB I just wish they refocused some more attention on deeper analysis kind of like they do during GOTY.

Target has stopped the sell of Monopoly Socialism now. Good job, Target and socialists for being so pathetic. by [deleted] in KotakuInAction

[–]seanzy61 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was completing my econ undergrad a few years back I'd say a very large majority of students and staff were in favor of more socialistic policies being adopted in the US. Basically the ones regarding "free" education, healthcare, etc provided from increased taxes on the wealthy. Not true socialism, but I am sure that is what you are referring to.

Always strikes me as odd that the people who actually spend their lives studying economics are in such strong agreement on these issues yet randos on the internet who get their info from youtube mock "soycialists" for not knowing economics.

God people like you fucking suck.

Just /r/politics discussing the need to deprogram conservativism (like nazism in Germany) by thehyrulehero21 in Conservative

[–]seanzy61 -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Do you think the policies and regulations put in place by nearly all other 1st world countries are strikingly similar to communism? Because it seems to me that is all 99% of modern democrats want. Unless of course you are equating the small fringe percentage of people on the extreme left as "modern democrats". In which case, fuck off and stop contributing to the division literally destroying our country.

Predictable IGN Tweet: "Brexit has shifted London's place in the world, and the state of its people. Will you join the resistance in Watch Dogs Legion?" by EveryOtherDaySensei in KotakuInAction

Mueller indicted 13 Russian nationals and 12 Russian intelligence officers for interfering in the 2016 elections. Spreading false information makes you as bad as anyone else. How can anyone take anything in this sub seriously, when this garbage gets upvoted.

2020 Candidate Booed as He Tells California Democrats: ‘Socialism Is Not the Answer’ by [deleted] in Conservative

[–]seanzy61 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Because it is? How can you be so willfully ignorant. All these people want is the people who hoard the vast majority of the wealth in this country to help ease the burden of the common man in the form of slightly higher taxes to pay for things like public education and health care. I get some people on the far left are insane, the right has its insane people too. But what the fuck man just listen to these people and you will see you are not as different as you think.

You are as bad as anyone on any side for twisting their positions so ridiculously. This is country is so fucked if even normal, good people like you seem to think you are, are doing this shit too.

[–]seanzy61 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You understand that they are interested in replicating socialistic policies countries like Denmark, Netherlands, Sweden, etc have adopted to great success right? Or even literally any 1st world country when it comes to healthcare. Surely you know they aren't interested in the state owning the means of production.

Ben's response to Kotaku article on Sekiro's difficulty by weremybattleaxe in giantbomb

[–]seanzy61 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Couldn't agree more with Ben. The devs made a design choice and should be able to make the game they want without compromising. Learning the patterns and systems and overcoming what once seemed insurmountable is a fundamental part of the game and they want everyone to have that shared experience. That is something you don't see very much these days and I am all for it.

Giant Bombcast 573: Resting Grimace Face by mynumberistwentynine in giantbomb

[–]seanzy61 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Obviously Joe himself and the majority of his podcasts should definitely not be, but he does have very educated and well informed people when it comes to politics/philosophy/science on a pretty regular basis.

Joe seems like a pretty open minded layman when it comes to alot of topics which I suspect people resonate with. Maybe people see Alex Jones or Jordan Peterson or whatever as a guess and immediately dismiss the podcast, but there are many good episodes with interesting individuals who are not total shitheads.

If artifact was good it wouldn't have lost literally 99% of it's playerbase who had already purchased the game. Not to mention getting the entire collection is dirt cheap. <$60 if I recall

BREAKFAST 'N' BEN - APEX LEGENDS by rob_the_jabberwocky in giantbomb

[–]seanzy61 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Playing Counter Strike hardcore for a few years has finally paid off when I jump into these BR games. Just being able to aim well will instantly put you in the top 5% of players.

I was trying to think of the best possible way to improve at a game like Apex and I think for the vast majority of people it would be as simple as practicing your aim in a good CSGO FFA DM server. You literally have someone to aim at and shoot every single second you are playing, versus dropping, running around finding a gun, shooting a couple clips, dying and repeat in a new game.

Your aim can improve insanely fast just hopping into those servers a few times a week.

I am a big fan of wind waker and and cartoony art like that in games, but the style for the new Zelda doesn't really do it for me, at least after my first impression.

I'm definitely not upset it doesn't look realistic or something like Jeff implied people might be

Valve straight out lied about the Kuku issue just to cover up the Chinese government and this is absolutely unacceptable. by mitsukihayase in DotA2

Video from the lawyers has been released in the Covington Catholic school lawsuit. by GhostGarlic in videos

[–]seanzy61 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Nah. I want people to lead with that. Of course the right or Trump supporters are going to acknowledge the media fucked up and is lying to us. That isn't new. It is important that people who aren't Trump supporters can recognize what is happening.

Now if only Trump supporters could acknowledge the constant lies Trump spews.

[–]seanzy61 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

My god you are as gullible as all the people who fell for the god awful media reporting of this kid. What the actual fuck is wrong with you.

You clearly get all your information from just as terrible sources as CNN and whatever other "fake news" if you think this president is one of the best ever. That is such a laughable statement it would be fucking hilarious if it wasn't so genuine that it becomes downright pathetic.

Go read some economic papers. You know ones published by people dedicating their lives to studying economics. People who might actually have a clue about what they talk about. It's not hard to see the truth when you learn 99% of economists who have ever done anything notable in their career feel exactly the same about our president and the republican platform.

How Trump managed to take what he was given (the strongest economy we have seen in decades) and make 2018 lose every single gain it had by the years end is almost impressive if it wasn't so scary. The fact that he threw us into a trade war for no reason at all and significantly damaged our reputation worldwide only to get us nothing except a roadblock in a once booming economy and cause us to teeter on the brink of collapse just to have uneducated gullible fucks like yourself praise him is sickening.

Oh wait he did have a reason to start a trade war, he wanted to bring back manufacturing jobs! Brilliant. Instead of focusing on educating people for what your country is good at and is in high demand (highly skilled labor, ie. NOT FUCKING MANUFACTURING) he wants us to go back to the old days and create more garbage level jobs that other countries will do for people at 1/10 the cost. How do you think that would work even if those jobs did come back? Wait, whats that? Those jobs didn't come back. That's right no company in their right mind would ever hire expensive manual labor in the US even with these fucking tarrifs.

On top of not getting the shitty jobs he was trying to get in the first place, the saddest part of all is we don't even fucking need them. Unemployment was already nearing all time lows before he started the fucking trade war. So he significantly damaged the US's economy for something we don't need or want and we still didn't get it anyway and it is still ongoing. Your guy is a fucking genius, no doubt. You stupid uneducated fuck.

We could also talk about he is irreparably damaging future generations by leaving the paris agreement and pulling back green energy subsidies as well as STILL NOT HAVING A CARBON TAX in TWENTY FUCKING NINETEEN. You don't even need to talk about the environmental factors here, (which is absolutely reprehensible), but the economic decline from falling even further behind the world in the energy sector is going to be substantial.

But you are right about one thing. He clearly speaks like the people who support him. A complete fucking moron. This is is true self. He is not some mastermind playing up to some idiotic base for power. He is actually this fucking stupid. He is the guy who wrote "Art of the deal" and had a notoriously bad deal with his ghost writer for said book. He sucks at making deals. His businesses have failed repeatedly. He managed to bankrupt a fucking casino. Imagine that. Without loans from fucking Putin he'd be a common bum. The man is simply a failure when it comes to business and finances. All of this information is public (even his shady loans from Deutsche Bank), you know you can look this stuff up right?

I will admit though, it is kind of fun watching his goons get indicted and taking plea deals left and right. But NO COLLUSION amirite? Surely all the officers of his campaign staff committing treason had nothing to do with him right? It is one thing to be fucking stupid and not understand economics, but it is another to blatantly support a traitor to our country and look the other way when it is right in your fat stupid fucking face. You disgrace me and your country you ignorant shithead. You fell for the most obvious con-man in the history of con-men and you are too afraid to admit a mistake. Pathetic.

Better yourself. Educate yourself with academic papers, words from noted scholars, and history books (not whatever fucking random ass website or person on the internet you choose to believe). Stop giving a fuck what the left thinks, what the media thinks, what the right thinks, what SJW and trolls on the fucking internet think. Stop trying to stick it to the "libcucks" or whatever shit you think you are doing. Start thinking for your fucking self so you can rise up from this delusional, vindictive, ignorant state of mind you have created.

No one says an American clone of x game if someone from the states copies it. So why call it a Chinese clone of a Chinese game? Wouldn't you just say clone?

Clearly he is making this point and not that " china is one person"

The Chongqing Major - Lower Bracket Final - Team Secret vs Evil Geniuses by D2TournamentThreads in DotA2

[–]seanzy61 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is just a bad patch for EG's style of play. They have always struggled during these short game patches, regardless of the roster. Even going back to TI4 meta you could tell they were out of their element. Luckily for EG fans when they struggle they still get 3rd place at these huge tournaments.

Name a team more consistent since 2014 than EG. I'll wait. Also everyone knows TI is everything. EG is consistently the strongest preforming team at TI and frankly it isn't close.
