  • What immediately came to my mind was the phrase, “A key that opens a lot of locks is a good key, a lock that is opened by a lot of keys is a shitty lock.” And generally, that’s something you’re a lot more likely to bump into than rape, which is a much more uncomfortable to talk about for a lot of people and so it’s almost never going to be brought up. Combine that with some rape cases that get swept under the rug with phrases like, “boys will be boys,” “she was asking for it,” or even something as outright cruel as “it’s the only way she’d get laid anyways,” and yeah, where OP is coming from isn’t too hard to understand.


  • At some point years ago, I moved off Chrome and switched to Edge. I don’t remember why. I think it was because ublock would no longer work with Chrome. Or maybe it was Firefox I was on, and Chrome was throttling Youtube when accessed through Firefox, so I started using Edge and just swapped. Or maybe both. I don’t really recall. But Edge works perfectly fine for what I need it to do. With how heavy Google has tilted into advertising, data tracking, and enshitifying themselves, I low-key resent them and just won’t use Chrome unless I have to. Firefox with ublock for phone, Edge with ublock for PC.





  • I played long after most of the bugs were fixed, just a bit before 2.0 and Phantom Liberty came out (I’ve yet to get it, but, eventually it will happen.) On PS5 so everything ran pretty well. I loved the game a lot, and generally speaking, I have little to complain about. I would have liked more side quests and for the ones that exist to be more fleshed out than some background via texts. And I’m saying that after having gone around and completing every odd job/side quest/gig.

    But my only real gripe is after having played through the story a couple times, it becomes really tedious to get through enough of the story to open up all of Night City again when starting up a new play through. I wish there were a way to accelerate that so I can just drop in and play with a new game and a new playstyle without having to sit through all the long dialogues and car chit chats.




  • I have a list of Metroidvanias I’ve started but never completed. The only one that managed to hold my attention to completion that wasn’t an actual Metroid title was Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. Which is a shame, because Ori and The Blind Forest is beautiful and Hollowknight is very cute, but neither could really hold my attention.
