Capitalist argument against welfare, single payer health care, a universal basic income, or any other social programs funded by taxes: “You’re not entitled to benefit from other people’s labor.”
Capitalist argument against business being required to pay a minimum wage that’s a living wage: “You’re entitled to benefit from other people’s labor as much as possible.”
Simple solution to contradiction:
Under capitalism, corporations are more valuable than people.
Sorry for non-neopets but I just started my very first pride merch series, NO GENDER NO PROBLEM, featuring genderless pokemon!! I figured some of you might be interested so here you go!
Once you realise that a game’s worth is not in its perfection, but in your ownenjoyment level, then you’re going to have a lot more fun playing video games
Ok, this goes into some research I read on the different types of gamers.
They are:
Killers- Think your competitive types, they’re going to be playing games like Modern Warfare, Halo, and other competitive games. They get enjoyment by winning over their opponent.
Achievers- Going for the 100% route, trying to get the high score, etc. Think any game with increasing difficulty and esoteric achievements. They play games to try to achieve perfection within the game.
Explorers- They just want to explore the game- think more storytelling or immersive experiences, etc. They enjoy gaming because it allows them to escape and engage in a world and really take it all in.
Socializers- Found more in MMOs, where there can be real community building, they play games to meet and work with other people.
Killers and Achievers tend to be a lot holier than thou, but they’re all valid, so long as you’re having fun in your own way.
This is by far the best addition to this post, thank you for the analysis! I honestly didnt know about these different types, it’s really interesting!
when the toontown brochures promised a fun vacation but when you get there you’re forced to join a war against machines and the mayor won’t let you go back home but on the bright side there’s free real estate
i really hope nintendo added this very specific animation of eevee on purpose, because if you know a little fun fact about animal behaviour then it makes it approximately one dkjfhgillion percent better.
quite often, you’ll see dogs doing something like this with their front paws. they pick it up and wave it at you. sometimes they even hit you by accident! but they aren’t trying to hurt you, oh no. quite the opposite. see, when you regularly pet a dog, it starts to learn the motion you do. if you treat the dog well and it starts to love you, then it will sometimes perform this jerky smacking motion with its paw. this is a dog’s best approximation of petting, and sometimes when you go to pet it, it will do it in an attempt to return the favour. cats also do this, although not as often, because cats are just like that.
long story short: eevee is attempting to pet you back, because it loves you.
this is just something i noticed, and it might not be anything. but i really hope that this was intentional on nintendo’s part, because it’s an adorable little addition to the game!
if you’re offline or away and i message you something (like a link to a meme or a picture or w/e) honestly just assume that i’m just leaving it there for when you get back and not expecting you to answer straight away. i don’t need you to respond with “hey, sorry, i wasn’t at the computer!” or anything. i was leaving u a gift for later.
