Maybe if they created an environment conducive to having kids, more people would have them. Failing and underfunded public education, increasingly expensive cost of childcare, lower standard of living. I could go on about climate and geopolitical uncertainty but you get the idea.

Don’t repeatedly kill the cows in the first village so that you can sell their drops for coins. You can do it once… maybe twice…

It’s because video games turned into investment vehicles where companies want to make at least 50% return on their investment instead of create a fun and engaging peice of entertainment.

“People work in roles they don’t care about, for companies they have no investment in, to pay loans they shouldn’t have.”

That sounds like a fight club quote lol. I know you didn’t say “loans they shouldn’t have” but the cost of college is just stupidly high. It doesn’t have to be free but come on.

Hell yeah smiling friends meme format!!!

Monday morning, my alarm goes off. As I reach to turn it off I see a bright pink teddy bear standing at my bedside. Before I can react it blasts me in the face with a ray of pure happiness as I forget that wages have not been keeping pace with productivity or inflation.

Not “forever” but they should continue to work it seems. They will degrade and slowly stop working over time tho, no clue how long.

For real. At least the odds aren’t explicitly against you like casinos.

I hope it has that “skibidi Ohio rizz” all the kids are talking about.

Proto-brain rot lol

You might think if a company has tons of empty houses or more likely apartments that the company is losing money because nobody is paying rent but that’s not entirely accurate.

Companies do take losses since they have to pay property tax and stuff but they just use that as a tax write off against their profits so they don’t have to pay as much in taxes so it’s not even a complete loss for them. :/

There’s an idea about “autistic ai” or something where you give ai an objective like “get a person from point a to b as fast as you can” and the ai goes so fast the g force kills the person but the ai thinks it was a success because you never told it to keep the person alive.

Though I suppose that’s more human error. Something we take as a given but a machine will not.

Just a little fucksy wucksy :3

Why not give people actual hope for the future if that’s the problem?

Damn am i the only one who uses Connect? Lol

Pray they don’t alter it any further

Funny how whenever literal nazis gather and protest cops are nowhere to be found

God this guy is so out of touch

I mean if my grocery store app could track my purchases and then give me a suggested weekly grocery list based on meals it knows I like or ate before that would be incredible. Hell I’d pay for that lol.

As if Trump would be any better… jfc
