  • Only ones who dissapointed me were Star Trek: Voyager actors. Its the only thing I got attached to as a kid.

    Robert Beltran - Commander Chakotay

    Roxann Dawson - B’Elanna Torres

    Both transphobes and trump supporters who won’t shut up about no one wanting to invite them to Star Trek stuff anymore.

    I used to feel bad for Rob because he got such a shit treatment in ST:V in terms of writing and because his character fell victim to Jamake High water’s grifting (look him up if you want to see why 90’s native american characters kinda suck).





  • I think the problem you’re running into is that Valve isn’t doing nothing with that pay.

    Like valve is actively making my gaming experience better by developing cheap hardware and a good system for gaming on Linux.

    All the games I’ve ever bought, regardless of if they still sell them are in my library.

    My save files are cloud synced for free.

    I as the end user am having a good time.

    I also have a sunk cost thing going on. I’ve been trying to buy and play more GOG games but I just have so much that works already on Linux without any work that it’s hard to justify the tinker time to get it working otherwise.

    They provide such a good service I think we’ve all forgotten about the children casinos for CSGO2 skins, but even that they’re fixing (kinda).

    Maybe its just nice to not be mad about something. Like its just video games, I don’t really care if Valve has a monopoly on that since 1) Experience is good 2) they’re not trying to have like a monopoly on water or something important. Bad take maybe, but there’s enough going on that I just don’t know if I could make myself care that valve is like 90% of videogame sales. Or whatever it is.










  • As a pro gun pro hunting guy

    Do you actually need to depend on venison for food or do you choose to?

    Personally, I think hunting is a good way to stay mindful of the food chain and what it takes to eat meat. If one is going to eat meat I view this as the most ethical way to do it.

    But its not necessary.

    Unless you’re doing the whole process yourself (which you might be) then its not cheaper than purchasing meat. And also its not better for you health wise unless you have some sorta allergy to beef. I guess its more lean, but truthfully I’d rather have smaller portions of fatty meat for flavor and health benefit reasons than more frequent lean meat.

    I’d personally prefer to keep my ability to obtain protein myself if needed and the easiest way to do that is with a gun, but I have been looking I to bow hunting because that feels more ethical environmentally and in a lot of ways safer than explosion tubes that I hold next to my face.

    So I guess I have two questions. Do you need to hunt? Do you need a gun specifically to hunt?
