However, even some normie ledditors start to 
about why living expenses are getting more and more expensive, yet the ruling class and media only talks about "internet extremism" as the issue that plebians should be focused about! 
I'm gonna bash my fricking head against the...
IT'S BECAUSE WE'VE TRIED ASKING NICELY TO AFFORD BASIC SHIT AND KEEP GETTING * * FRICKING IGNORED!!!** By our political "leaders", by our employers, landlords, law enforcement (see; elite class public security detail, lower class suppression unit) we're fricking sick of fighting to meet even the bare minimum!!!
And now it's "Ooooohhhh.... I bet all these attacks are because of that EEEEVVVVIIIIILLL INTERNET! It's gotta be that 'political divisiveness. That's the proble-"
GET FRICKED, NBC! It's the thing that your fricking owners won't let you fricking talk about, and I am beyond sick of the actual fricking problem getting so carefully danced around.
We're. Tired. Of. The. Owner. Class's. Bull. Shit.
I never thought I would be agreeing with a redditor typing an neurodivergent mental breakdown 
Its getting bad in the last couple of months we have had 2 assignation attempts on Trump a third non-attempt where a guy tried to sneak into his press conferences with a gun, we have had two shootings at Christian schools, an attack in new Orleans that killed a bunch of people and finally a guy tried to blowup a cybertruck in front of trump tower. these attacks are all over the place but the one connecting thread is it is all far right violence.
Just remove anonymity/usernames from all platforms. Users have to use their legal name. Let's get some real accountability behind people's actions and what they are spreading.

Not entirely unexpected, they are following Crapcum's steps. I expect most if not all FG devs are going to start doing the same
At least two characters are pretty much confirmed
Ilsa
Siete / Seofon
The other two are wild cards. They could go with a Divine General rep
Six Dragon rep (I want the fricking cat)
And some others but I got lazy halfway in.

Woman sues fertility clinic for implanting wrong embryo β forcing her to hand over baby five months after giving birth
A devastated Georgia woman is suing a fertility clinic for implanting the wrong embryo inside her, resulting in the baby being "ripped away" from her five months after she gave birth and bonded with the child.
Krystena Murray, from Savannah, underwent in vitro fertilization two years ago and only discovered the fertility clinic's "reckless" mistake after she delivered a healthy baby boy in December 2023.
Murray and her sperm donor are both white
.
She said she "knew something was very wrong" when the child was born because she delivered a

AIO, my boyfriend is mad at me because, as a healthcare provider, I help women access abortions even though it's illegal here. I know I'm risking my license, jail time, and a huge mess, but I refuse to stand by while children suffer in a country with a homeless crisis. Society here is brutal to women who conceive out of wedlock. many are abandoned, left to raise a child alone, or even killed for having s*x outside marriage. I can't just watch and simply refuse to help a woman who comes to me asking for help, so I do all I can. From providing medications to assisting the process. And I don't take any money for it, so it's not about personal gain.
Literally Jesus Christ of the state.

A short recap from the last drama:
PS is a streamer/gamedev who has a lot of hate for his takes and is under kiwifarm crosshair for being a furry lolcow. Despite that, he is still fairly popular.
He plays WOW hardcore or something with his clan (or whatever in wow) OnlyFangs with are a bunch of streams apparently. This is a recipe for disaster.
In one of the WOW encounters that leave 2 permanent clan members dead, he has a dispute with his clan on stream because he ran away. Whether you agree with it or not, he is so unlikable during the stream everyone comes out and dunks on him. From a simple clan dispute, it turns into a massive drama in which people send him death threats for the lol. He takes it pretty badly and gets kicked out of the clan.
recap over
This time, he went into 
Asmongold stream to explain his situation. Needlessly to say, this cause a massive massive seethes from the leftoid

As he sits in his ivory tower.
So would you rather us lose our sovereignty? If you believe that just say it.
You would give up your job, become homeless, and give up your retirement account?
If you believe that just do it.
Yeah, I'm prepared to do that -- and one more than that.
The additional one is arm up and resist.
No fricking way will I accept an American overlord on our soil.
You and what rifle? We've been disarmed! You stood by and probably cheered it as it happened!
!nooticers note how he says "arm up and resist" not just resist. This is a man who own no guns and who thinks, what he'll just be provided with one when shit hits the fan?

Remember that Mike Pondsmith, who invented all this crap, is a BLack man
Anyway, I started the Dogtown part of the game (from the Phantom Liberty DLC) which is very good but the small area is a little too busy which causes some serious jank and framerate drops. The new car theft missions have caused my PC to crash a couple of times. Apparently the REDengine CD Project Red use is just not up to maintaining a game like this. They have already announced they're dumping it for future releases and rely on Unreal 5. I've had some shocking glitches while driving- cars appearing out of nowhere, falling out of the sky like that guy in Morrowind...
I even had a car spawn directly under me, catapulting my car 30 feet into the air. The game has avoided this from being too immersion-breaking by making almost every car that has collidedwith me driven by a woman.
There is a character in this game called 'Mr. Hands' who seemed to change his voice actor. This is controversial so I innocently googled "Mr Hands voice controversy"...
Yeah, they maybe should have checked that name before they used it.

To discuss your weekly readings of books, textbooks and papers.
I'm reading "Petersburg" as part of our book club, but because it's a one chapter per week basis I started "Brothers Karamazov" this week as I never read it before and I recently got a wonderful edition by Editora 34 (the only Dostoevsky book I had read was C&P).
So far I wonder if terrible fathers are just a recurrent theme on Dostoevsky's works.

- Fresh_Start : Zoomer incompetence has given me hope for my future.
normies notice the many cracks of r-slur decisions of Bioware in Dragon Age 4
- 112
- 147
CONTEXT:
Apparently the uber soys working on DA4 deliberately avoided the use of spiders as enemies, in order to avoid offending the sensibilities of those with arachnophobia.
The news of this going along the grapevine is just many tiny titbits of news, making even the most braindead slopconsuming 
DA fans hesitant about being excited regarding the upcoming Dragon Age 4 in less than a month - especially since 3 months ago, Bioware had released a trailer which garnered a large amount of dislikes from people for a myriad of reasons.
The reason for the backlash or dislike or lack of positive feedback are many, including the great fracturing of the fanbase - but most of it was also to due with the context within which the DA4 trailer was released. For the past 2 years gaming has seen spectacular mega-blockbuster game failures from AAA developers and publishers, stuff like Redfall and GOllum, Forspoken and Suicide Squad and Skull and Bones, Saits Row 2022 reboot and so on.
ALL of these uber AAA games had immediate uncertainty and pushback upon their trailers, Saints Row 2022 reboot's trailers back in 2020 & 2021, had immediate backlash from the core Saints Row fanbase, whom had gotten used to the dark humor and morally abhorrent but likeable protagonists of the series.
The student soyboys protagonists of the reboot, left many with uncertainty as to the quality of the rest of the game, if the developers could seemingly miss the previous tone of the series so badly to SUCH an extent. Even Saints Row 4, the batshit insane matrix alien invasion parody title, held the dark humor and moral abhorrence of the protagonists to old standard, even if Saints Row 2 fans hated the zany story.
Instead it gave the fanbase a fear that the developers of the Saints Row 2022 Reboot legitimately hadn't actually played the games, or legitimately didn't comprehend them and their themes.
In the ensuing months past its release in 2022, the /r/saintsrow sub was a perpetual battleground, where shitlibs wokes and soys tried to gaslamp everyone into believing the game was good or even of acceptable quality - yet this time, the spectacular critical and financial failure vindicated the detractors of the Reboot, in that their fears all the way back in 2020 were well founded - in that if the developers could not even hold the same writing tone of the previous titles, whether through incompetence or agenda pushing, then there was very little chance that the other aspects of the game would be up to par.
A similar phenomenon had occurred in the trailers, and pre-release period of many uber high profile failures. Forspoken to Gollum, to Redfall. And although a bad trailer is never a guarantee of a predictor of the quality of a game, these specific high profile failures, each so close to each other, each vindicating detractors from teh moment the trailers dropped, demonstrated that much could be inferred by veteran gaymers 
or even normies 
ESPECIALLY negatively if the writing tone of specific series was different, if woke girlboss or woke seeming modern contemporary politics were present within the trailer, like a canary 
in the coalmine,
or just corpospeak and obvious trendchasing. The now infamous Concord failure was another such prediction by detractors as much as 2 years ago, since many Hero Shooter genre corposhit trendchaser soulless games have already lost millions for their demented out-of-touch CEOs. In fact Concord WILDLY exceeded even the worst predictions of failure as we now in the present know with hindsight.
I had an exchange with @Losercel 3 months back (can't remember the comments) where he exclaimed it was foolish for dramatards and other detractors to already be so negative with regards to a game still 4 months away, and I espoused that in isolation this might be true, but within the context of so many high profile failures, the negativity was warrented.
ON SPECIFICALLY THE PUSHBACK ON THE DA4 BIOWARE TRAILER:
Again many reasons for the negativity, but basically 3 months ago, the pushback could be boiled down to 2 main factors.
Many peeps immediately despised the artstyle of the trailer, declaring it too be "too cartoony", and appearing to be targeting the zoomer or Fortnite or Hero Shooter fandom.
With an additional 15 years worth of build up disdain for Marvelesque dialogue and writing
Additionally peeps decried the tone for being waaaaaay offbeat, too similar to Disney/Marvel or too light hearted, in comparison to the previous entries of the series having been relatively grimdark in tone type Dark Fantasy, with certain portions of of ALL 3 games having had sections which were borderline horror in tone and theme. (The Broodmother quests in Origins, the female Frankenstein quests in DA2, and the MINDRAPE quest or Fade in Inquisition) Even inquisition could have many dark moments despite its more colourful palette compared to its progenitors
"This is what Tevinter Magisters saw in Golden City." 
Anyways it's just a whole comment section meming and lamenting the fear that the feel of the game was too different from its predecessors.
Additionally since 2019-2024, another phenomena had occurred, a relative mainstreamification of chudtubers and anti-woke media critics on Youtube, for example the most infamous currently being guys like the Critical Drinker.
Born from many chuds, to eventually even normies having had no outlet to voice 
their discontent of modern Hollyweird woke slop from both Disney and Hollywood greater, in which race-bending of white european characters from traditional medieval periods, to disliked girlboss chars, to the perception that modern contemporary politics had found its way into escapism fiction.
These anti-woke critics/youtubers still wouldn't sway any liberally minded peeps, and their reach was still only a fraction of normies, but even IRL in my real world experiences, around the office water cooler, or worksites or between trusted friends or family, I have noticed explicit anti-woke sentiment or talking points espoused by peeps i would consider super normie and apolitical, with regards to modern Hollywood media
Even Hollywood writers have actively written that detractor fandoms have started to have an actual word-of-mouth effects upon their bottom lines! With many blame being laid upon the feet of the myriad of anti-woke or chudtubers which had sprung up.
This exchange between @SpookNarca and @eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee best sums it up.

NO SPIDERS! 
Back to the no Arachnophobia thing 
Basically in the past 3 days Biowarefans have been slapping 
about how this is totally a non issue maaaaaaaaaaan, to this is another straw on the camel's 
back in terms of redflags 
"On it's own, the lack of spiders is not an issue. The problem is quickly becoming all these small things that wouldn't really be an issue "on their own", they add up. No more spiders, only 3 choices (this is an issue on its own), only 2 companions, can't control your companions etc etc etc... DAV is quickly becoming unrecognizable."
"It's a sign that this game is going to have no teeth to it; it's going to be modern Marvel levels of Slop" 
"Exactly, people like this would piss and shit themselves if Sten was a companion, or other character like Javik or Regill" 
"I'm scared of spiders like most people but this is weird. This reminds me of a mod that replaced spiders with mabari. But they still spawned in by coming down from a web which is way FRICKING scarier than a spider doing that lmao" 
<insert eyerolls="" here=""> 
</insert>
"I'm afraid of water. REMOVE THE OCEANS!!" 
"To me this sort of thing raises concerns. These sort of changes feel more like "what we can do to appease the audience" whereas I don't think anyone who is creating a very good story would be worried about that because they know the game/story itself is enough that people will be a part of it and enjoy it regardless. Or it's just one less piece of art they have to design which would be in line with the Keep changes and scaling back scope." 
This is especially noticable as ingame characters have joked at the amount of ingame spider enemies killed!

I'm sorry but Europe is so π¬ y now. It's become Orwellian, with people being arrested for thinking about dead babies, and with streams of illegal immigrants running about raping everybody while the governments all cheerlead diversity and say "nothing to see here".
The fact that the left has to reflexively defend European decline under the guise of "be nice to our allies!" is just so fricking ghey.
