  • “we need to make sure that they’re only safe and happy when we’re safe and happy”

    I agree and this reminds me of what happened in Sri Lanka:

    “On July 9, 2022, thousands of protesters stormed the official residence of Sri Lankan President Gotabaya Rajapaksa in Colombo, known as Temple Trees, following months of civil unrest over the nation’s severe economic crisis. Demonstrators broke through police barricades and tear gas, flooding the colonial-era palace, swimming in its pool, and occupying its offices while chanting slogans against the leadership”

    They stormed their politicians house. They had no power in their homes and when they stormed the Presidents place they found they had power and the aircons are all on and all this expensive stuff around the house. It was disgusting to see the president using aircons and spending money on material things when his people are in an economic crisis. It was a breath of fresh air to see people doing something about the incompetence of their leaders. The rest of us need to do the same.


  • If we are just numbers on a screen, they are treating it as such. When companies look at ways to save money, they look at the numbers and try and reduce their costs. If it means using an unhealthy alternative to the food they sell, they do that, we will still buy it. Now they are replacing the worker, another number they can reduce. The problem there is that the same number is whats paying you for the product. If only a few companies do this, then its fine, the worker will find another job and use their money to buy things. But we know that most, if not all, companies will jump on replacing the worker with AI, thinking the same thing, the worker will find a job elsewhere. Very easy to take this direction when you’re treating all your problems as numbers on the screen. I do believe that this will fail, but there is still the fact that a lot of people are not workers and make an egregious amount of money(legally or illegally). These companies will just sell to whoever can afford that lifestyle.



  • I know its an unpopular opinion but I actually enjoyed 3. I won’t compare it to 2, but i definitely like it more than 1. I was surprised to find out that the majority of the fan base dislike the game. There was so much to do in 3 compared to 1 and i enjoyed those systems, especially at the time the game was out, there was no other game that let you do what you could do in fable 3. But i gave up on that talk cause the fable fans i talk to hate 3. Leaving this here for anyone who also enjoyed 3 lol With regards to the new game, I felt like the first preview was something to look forward to. It felt like the fable systems from the first 3 games are being improved (relationship systems, working a day job for extra gold, buying/renting houses, …) Obviously i take it all with a grain of salt considering every new release ends up being a cash grab.
