I just started waiting as long as I needed to, years if necessary, for the games I want to drop down on a sale to under $20. I really don’t care how long I have to wait. There’s enough games out there now to keep me busy.

I’m an older millennial on the cusp of being GenX.

You guys definitely aren’t the same as Boomers. Some similarities, but not enough to be grouped in with them.

But THEY did. And they are all that matters.

Pssst…modern Christians aren’t actually Christian.

My body reminds me I’m an adult every day.

Ok.

I’ll go to whatever platform doesn’t require it. Thanks though.

I’m curious if you regret your past support of anti-gun policies

Not really.

I’d prefer to live in a society that doesn’t perpetuate enough fear to cause people to desire firearms for self defense. Those societies do exist. And 10+ years ago things weren’t as they are now in America. The situation has degraded. We could have gone down another path that could have led to less fear and gun ownership, but that’s not the future we chose for ourselves.

So I’ve had to shift my expectations. That’s why I don’t really regret advocating against guns in the past. I still don’t like them. I still think more guns will cause more problems. But our society is becoming more ignorant and our decisions are going to lead to more people being more destitute and more desperate, which will increase crime, as political violence also increases, so the bottom line is you have to protect yourself.

Mmmm.

I mean that’s literally why you have to ask for those things from behind the counter now. That literally proves my point.

Want.

Lifelong anti-gun libtard here.

I think guns are primarily for people who fear. I think fear is the primary motivator for firearm ownership. I would like to live in a society where fear doesn’t push people to own firearms. That is not our reality. That is not the society we live in.

There are masked, unqualified paramilitary federal goons entering our communities and harassing and assaulting AMERICAN CITIZENS. I passed my history classes. I enjoy reading up on history in my own personal time. I know where things like this often lead, and I’ve come to accept that it’s time to arm myself. A significant portion of our populace also supports what is happening and would be perfectly fine with people like myself, who want everyone to have healthcare, a good education, and to be fed, being “removed” from this plane of existence. These people are everywhere. I understand that they are not actively going out and killing people like me, but they are voting to persecute and harm people like me and the people I care about.

That’s enough for me to arm myself out of fear.

I don’t believe this to be a good society. I don’t believe this to be an intelligent society. I don’t believe this to be a safe society going forward.

I haven’t purchased a firearm yet, but I’ve been out shooting with friends a number of times and I’ve been asking questions to get ready for the process of acquiring at least one.

Lol. Have fun searching the cosmos for a world where conscious beings only take what they need.

When food is so expensive you have to have a special device to shove it all back up inside you when it tries to escape.

He was already this old in Anaconda? How is this fuck still alive?

Anyone else remember, 17 years ago, when IGN April Fooled a Legend of Zelda live action movie trailer and everyone really, really wanted it to be real?

Can you imagine being a woman choosing to fuck a Republican?

You could bottle the smell inside that vehicle and use it in chemical warfare.

Presenting facts to conservatives.

He won’t “fall” until his supporters stop supporting him.

To be clear, his supporters voted for him in 2024 even though he was already a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, and insurrectionist.

They will not care if they find out he fucked children.

Such a stupid, stupid society.
