| Topic | remember StinkPrincess? |
| polopili 08/06/21 2:04:30 PM #1 | Interesting gimmick. |
| Topic | Why doesn't the State just pay Landlords |
| polopili 08/06/21 11:37:29 AM #9 | That's how it works in some parts of Canada. They used to build government housing for very low income people and kinda gave up on it because it was too expensive. Instead they pay the rent directly to landlords who own low-quality appartments. |
| Topic | Would you forgive Trump if he apologized for being a fat POS president? |
| polopili 08/03/21 3:53:33 PM #9 | Yes. People who voted for him knew what kind of person he is. I blame them instead. |
| Topic | Why did no one tell Liquid Snake.... MGS SPOILERS |
| polopili 07/29/21 10:32:21 AM #28 | Didn't he dye and cut his hair in the MGS briefing to avoid looking like liquid? |
| Topic | How's this New World MMO? |
| polopili 07/28/21 2:10:41 PM #10 | Played it for 2 hours and refunded. |
| Topic | I work at an Amazon Warehouse. AMA? |
| polopili 07/28/21 2:07:56 PM #3 | how many fleshlights do you box in a week on average? |
| Topic | How would you describe me politically? |
| polopili 07/20/21 1:42:25 PM #14 | DuranOfForcena posted... enlightened centrist |
| Topic | What videogame mechanic you really hate.. besides escort missions |
| polopili 07/20/21 12:04:43 PM #90 | Metroidvanias. I'm just so tired of them. Oh you need to come back here once you have the double jump upgrade so you better not forget about this spot! I just played Crosscode and there's colored locked chests everywhere! |
| Topic | I think my kimchi is looking pretty legit |
| polopili 07/20/21 11:57:30 AM #7 | Did giant batches of kimchi quite a few times. I usually use the smell to decide how long it needs to ferment. Gochujang coleslaw is also worth looking into. It's not as pungent and more crispy, works good as a summer alternative. |
| Topic | Anyone else annoyed how these billionaire fuckers are going to space? |
| polopili 07/18/21 10:14:24 AM #74 | Remember when it was the world's most powerful nations teaming up to go to space and make science progress? Now it's a handful ultra-rich individuals who do it for a 5 minute thrill and we think it's normal. |
| Topic | Call centre jobs, I always wondered.... |
| polopili 07/17/21 11:47:12 PM #5 | I did it for a fairly short while. Angry/demanding weren't too bad, it was the really dumb ones who couldn't understand anything that bothered me. |
| Topic | why do people hate progressive wokeness? |
| polopili 07/08/21 9:50:19 AM #18 | Wokeness is what happened when liberalism took over the left. Now both the left and the right promote a liberal values. Capitalism is the clear winner here. |
| Topic | Does the far left support the CCP? |
| polopili 07/05/21 3:07:34 PM #56 | As a leftist, I do not support them at all. Though I does bother me when the media tries to turn China into another boogeyman because they are becoming a serious rival on the capitalist landscape. The west supports Saudi Arabia and Israel, both currently participating in genocides in Yemen and Palestine. So NOW you care about the uyghur? |
| Topic | Do you think the US needs to enact communism? |
| polopili 07/04/21 7:38:52 PM #14 | Capitalism in it's current form is not sustainable. It's not possible to keep growing forever. |
| Topic | So I finished Disco Elysium...*SPOILERS* |
| polopili 06/28/21 11:39:30 AM #8 | I really liked the game but it feels like looses steam when you enter the second area. Like optional quests become less meaningful and characters will start long rants about politics. When we're 2/3 into the game, it's about time to slow down with the world building and move the plot forward a bit. |
| Topic | What kind of meals can i cook that have a lot of veggies in em?? |

| Topic | Trump says he trusts Putin more than US intelligence |
| polopili 06/11/21 10:21:00 AM #27 | Hey remember what US intelligence said about those WMDs and anthrax trucks? |
| Topic | overeducated / overqualified, what? |
| polopili 06/09/21 1:38:51 PM #5 | matchboxsantana posted... I was reading this article in the economist where the author whines about americans not taking the POS jobs they're being offered. Then I read the comments the typical bootlickers saying that fast food jobs don't deserve $7 an hour because they're jobs for kids. Overqualified is like having a doctor wash the dishes in a restaurant cause he/she couldn't get a job as a doctor. Or the doctor job's pay was too low and refused to do it. |
| Topic | The basic nerd starter pack. |
| polopili 05/28/21 1:53:26 PM #10 | Reddit account, a 3D printer that has never been used, a coinbase account. |
| Topic | What are all the 9/10 and higher Gamecube Games? |
| polopili 05/23/21 4:16:41 PM #36 | REmake |
| Topic | The 70's must have been boring |
| polopili 05/22/21 10:20:21 PM #4 | Didn't have terrible fashion like the 80's, Hollywood finally making good movies. I guess it wasn't a violent decade like the 60s so it gets a bit forgotten. |
| Topic | Did "essential workers" ever got anything for working during pandemic? |
| polopili 05/14/21 1:02:39 PM #87 | JustMyOpinion posted... Aren't lumber prices insane right now anyway? Yep, crazy profits but no raises or bonus. I worked as a contractor traveling by plane between sawmills. Quit this job last winter. |
| Topic | Did "essential workers" ever got anything for working during pandemic? |
| polopili 05/14/21 12:45:17 PM #82 | Kaiganeer posted... got told i should be glad i even had a job when tons of people we're getting laid off That's what they told me. I work in the lumber industry and absolutely nobody got laid off in this business. |
| Topic | Anyone here played Dragon Quest Builders 2? |
| polopili 05/12/21 9:32:53 AM #11 | Finished the tutorial and doubt I'll keep playing. |
| Topic | what was the moment you started disliking The Simpsons? |
| polopili 05/10/21 10:38:12 AM #67 | Around Season 13. Storylines were not as good and jokes were less funny. Season 10-12 are still watchable and have some good episodes. I don't agree with those who say Homer's enemy or The Principal and the pauper are the point of no return. |
| Topic | China heavily damaging the planet. More greenhouse gases. |
| polopili 05/06/21 11:19:10 AM #24 | R_Jackal posted... If we're being absolutely honest here, phasing out gas vehicles likely won't happen for anyone but the wealthy and the poor/rural folk won't matter or get ignored. Simply because that's more or less impossible to enforce. Industry's goal is still to provide goods that will be used by regular people. There might be a whole bunch transformation steps between what comes out of an an iron mine and the end product of an F-150 truck, but in the end the iron mine is still part of the industry that produces consumer goods. Greenhouse gas emission goes much further than just the electricty/gas bill. It's part of the reason why it's not productive to compare individual countries performance in greenhouse gas. What part of China's CO2 was used to make goods that were shipped to other countries? Should we blame the country that produced them or ones who ordered them? |
| Topic | China heavily damaging the planet. More greenhouse gases. |
| polopili 05/06/21 10:15:36 AM #8 | uwnim posted... They have more than 4 times as many people as the 3rd most populous country. A lot of things are going to look low on a per capita basis. It's still the right way to interpret the data. I know it's cool to blame others for environmental problems, but the bottom line is that we are performing really badly at this and the Paris Agreement is going to be a total failure. |
| Topic | China heavily damaging the planet. More greenhouse gases. |
| polopili 05/06/21 9:56:42 AM #3 | China is still pretty low when it comes to greenhouse gas emission per capita. We also have a longer history of greenhouse gas emission than they do. |
| Topic | Games that actually name continents and geographical features |
| polopili 04/24/21 6:51:31 PM #19 | In Rimworld they randomly name all areas on the map with quite interesting results |
| Topic | I don't understand the praise for Disco Elysium |
| polopili 04/02/21 8:01:34 AM #6 | I found it excellent for the first half and it falls apart fast once you unlock the 2nd area. It starts to feel like the writer is forcing this we orld he created in your face and it wasn't about the murder or you character;s struggle anymore. Like they spend so much time telling you about these other countries but never even bother showing you a world map. |
| Topic | Dog worship in America is actually sickening. |
| polopili 04/01/21 11:53:20 AM #16 | It's not just an USA thing, western countries are very much into dogs. They offer affection to people with weak emotional health. They are kind of a bandage for a deeper society problem. |
| Topic | Give me one reason why society needs "billionaires" |
| polopili 03/29/21 1:58:05 PM #48 | Wealth is produced by creating intellectual and physical goods that fullfeed a need (extra needs can always be created through marketing). Physical goods are limited by the volume of ressources we can extract from the planet. Since intellectual goods mostly require time and brainpower we could consider it the to be infinite source of wealth. But then again most of the population is not very smart, there's probably cap on the need for intellectual goods. |
| Topic | Give me one reason why society needs "billionaires" |
| polopili 03/29/21 1:44:27 PM #41 | They are a byproduct of the economic system. Over time, big companies will always buy the small ones and focus wealth into these billionaires. |
| Topic | You are now classy. |
| polopili 03/26/21 2:08:46 PM #12 | Hmm I wonder if I should buy this $3,700 watch. |
| Topic | The Winter Soldier was so unrealistic |
| polopili 03/17/21 9:11:52 PM #11 | They literally have a nazi-like salute and yell Hail Hydra. |
| Topic | Does this look like a decent starter bike? |
| polopili 03/12/21 8:32:45 AM #12 | I think it's a fine bike. Check out if there's any signs of rust. Also, try manually in spinning the wheels and check if it wobbles around or touches the brake pads. If somebody had a collision with this bike, the forks or wheels might be slightly bent. |
| Topic | What's the best 80's fantasy film? |
| polopili 03/10/21 5:40:30 PM #27 | Conan. Also you forgot Dragonslayer which was kinda good. |
| Topic | It's straight bullshit that you need to change car/home/internet every year |
| polopili 03/02/21 8:44:52 AM #4 | You get better rates when complaining for your phone/internet but house and car, really? |
| Topic | Crysis is boring |
| polopili 02/20/21 8:44:04 PM #5 | Gameplay wasn't bad and it was like a decade ahead in graphics quality |
