When I had to choose I thought .world means, it‘s the central, most important place to be. Didn‘t know what the other abbreviations meant. Didn‘t care.

Well, it highly depends on how hard we try to stop climate change.

If you want a serious answer, read the IPCC report.

Huh? Privacy doesn‘t seem to be one of the best selling features, is it? Well, yes, you don‘t have to use your real name, but someone posted an article today, that not even private messages here are private.

One of those games I owned a demo of, but was never able to control properly. But, boy, was it cool! As a kid I messed around with it, but didn’t see more than one or two levels.

I still think about it from time to time, that’s the lasting impression it had on me. I never imagined, there would be an update or remake!

Thank you for the memories!

Has any interviewer ever asked one of these guys, why Hunter, someone who‘s never been part of the government, is such a big problem, WHILE TRUMP GAVE HIS UNELECTED CHILDREN AND SON IN LAW ACCESS TO OVAL OFFICE JOBS, EVEN TO CLASSIFIED MATERIAL?

Sorry, if you don‘t see a problem there, you are brainwashed and should not be taken seriously.

I switched to board games instead! There are so incredibly well designed and immersive board games now, that also can be played solo! Marvel Champions, Spirit Island, Arkham Horror The Card Game, just to name a few…

On the other hand lemmings don’t actually do that! 😁

Never heard of upi.com. But I‘m from Germany. Is this a good source?

No, it’s not. You’re not an enlightened tolerant and rational human being by claiming both sides are equally at fault.

Just one example: I’d agree with you, if both sides would make equally as many false claims. But that's not the case..

It’s not “Only your side is bad and my side is good”. There ARE liars on both sides. But that shouldn’t lead to the conclusion that both sides are telling equally as much lies.

Why is that so important? Because you would totally miss out on the rhetorical tactics they use to push their agenda. Take Trump’s caravan, Hunter’s laptop, false election claims. All of them were lies, but had a massive impact. Show me equally as bad examples the Democrats use to push their narrative.

Also, you can check, if you are open minded or not with the help of something called falsifiability. Ask yourself:

  1. What kind of proof would change my mind about this?
  2. Is there substantial proof?
  3. (Don’t) change your mind.

Because the Republicans are aggressively pushing this tribal culture war and it never should get normalized. They deserve to get called out on it.

What kind of intelligence failures gets mentioned behind the paywall?
