Playing alien isolation on my new OLED, played it before but it's one of my favourite horror games, any recommendations? Looking for something terrifying to play that I haven't already beaten

I always see people on plebbit shilling their books on different writing subs for their stuff on personal sites / amazon / royal road. Even on non writing subs and people eat it up.
idk I'd feel cringe and weird shilling that but is that just me? Is it normal to accept it and do it as well? Is it autism??? (yes)

Op's post:
For example, my next door neighbor is a guy who's in his mid 30's. But he acts like a legit boomer. His Facebook is nothing but posts about how "Darn millennials wearing their skinny jeans and drinking their soy lattes" (ironic coming from a millennial), his lack of understanding that I don't want him parking all his shit in my yard which he defends as "I've lived here longer, I can park my trailers wherever I want", and his comments about how my tattoos are going to ruin my life. Anyone else ever meet non boomers who act like boomers?

Yes. A lot of people just turn into their parents, the good and the bad.
To avoid slipping into the boomer mentality it requires constant introspection and always questioning why you feel the way you do about things, rather than just forming an opinion and justifying it from there
Lots of people patting themselves on the back in the thread, and also the entire sub. Might be tied with childfree for being the pettiest sub on reddit.

Remember Star Wars Republic Commando? Fun game for its age. One of the characters in your squad was a commando named Scorch, and he recently had been making "cameos" in Star Wars The Bad Batch, a spin off of the Clone Wars show. Taking place after Revenge of the Sith, the show involves a group of clones that did not betray the Jedi and now go on wacky adventures. Scorch was not one of these clones, appearing as an enemy at times. The other night, the finale for the show aired in which the Batch killed Scorch.
Our chud of topic here is BluePhoenix, a 27 year old Star Wars and Halo fan. BP starts losing it over Scorch's death.

He starts losing it, and I mean, losing it. This guy cannot believe media would kill off a character that hasn't been used in anything else for 20 years.
We finally get to the linked "I hope WW3 happens" tweet which reaches a slightly larger audience.
People also start memeing it
The guy's still reeing about the death over a day later.
Considering he can't stop talking about it, I can only assume that this has become a fetish for him.

What is America doing today to break out of such a doomed trajectory and into a more sustainable one? The answer, sadly, is nothing, or rather, worse than nothing. On climate, for example, the most immediate need is to end the burning of fossil fuels as soon as possible — something not even being considered by Washington policymakers in a country that hit record oil production and record natural gas exports in 2023. Even a quarter-century from now, wind and solar energy sources together are forecast to account for only about one-third of U.S. electricity generation, with 56% still being supplied by gas, coal, and nuclear power. The message is clear: curtailing ecological breakdown while improving humanity's quality of life requires banishing the material extravagance of the world's richest people, especially the growing crew of global billionaires. That would, however, have to be part of a much broader effort to rid affluent societies of the systemic overextraction and overproduction that threaten to be our global undoing. Civilization itself is in danger of collapse. Growth — whether expressed as more dollars accumulated, more tons of material stuff produced, more carbon burned, or more wastes emitted — is coming to an end. The only question is: Will it happen as a collapse of society, or could the reversal of material growth be undertaken rationally?
