I thought bedbugs were bad, but now I discovered something worse: botflies. Their maggots actually eat living flesh and bury themselves underneath the skin of mammals, including humans. They start off as microscopic eggs but can grow up to an inch.

There common in Central and South America. I would suggest avoiding those places unless you wear a bunch of insect repellent.

Localization of Japanese games has always been an issue. Western studios all the way back to the NES days have taken Japanese games and changed them in some way to try to appeal to the western audience more. Back then it was just trying to remove stuff like sex/nudity, since video games were seen as things made for children. Now, even things in M rated games are being censored, changed, removed, etc. It's not just the censorship, it's how often localizers actually just change things because they think it's better. It never is.

The one thing the internet trans community fails to understand is that the #1 reason they're hated by nerds isn't because they literally exist, it's because they walked into every single community or converted members, turned them into single topic people, and then had them replace any interest with the cause.

Case in point; the example someone else made about how some autist obsessed with something like preserving old betamax tapes of anime or something like that will decide they're trans and suddenly drop old interests to focus on being a "trans gurl uwu". This doesn't always happen, but even in those cases it's not uncommon for them to turn into single issue voters politically and mentally.

Imagine your group is responsible for censoring everything and rewriting it to fit a political agenda and you wonder why people mock you, and you still don't get it.

It replaced "retard" and "fag" because now, there is a specific group that is in fact causing damage to everything, and if you say anything about it haha you get fired and get unemployable (but if you join it you can get a slick Google job).

Oh yeah about the supply issue thing, there's an elephant in the room as well or two.

Sony used liquid metal for cooling. MS did not and just made the Xbox Series X larger (because we know that they learned their lesson with the 3fixme). This is leading to a real issue with dry spots on the APU:

Really, it reminds me of all these hippies and hipsters practicing Zen Buddhism.

Fixed it so that it dies when the center point crosses a non-road tile. Looks more natural that way.

Any westerner claiming to be practicing Shinto is probably just some weeabo LARPing. I can't think of any other reason why some westerner would practice it.

What I like about having my own business:

1. NO VACCINE! 😃 Literally the reason why I started lol

2. I get to work whenever I want, with who I want, wherever I want.

So no more:

Envious/passive aggressive coworkers
Micromanaging
Pretending to work

3. People treat me with more respect.

4. Paid by project > hours.

What I don't like

1. Cheap/Retard ass clients

2. Taxes are a pain!

3. Prospecting - constantly sending proposals, getting ghosted and following up with leads can be a pain.

Ok listen up fuck heads. Stop what youre doing and read this shit. Florida is in the news about speech laws. But have you seen the ones they already have? With this mark chitwood stunt arresting a 4 chan poster from new jersey and extraditing them to florida, the state of florida is asserting a right to police the internet. Read all these laws. Its one page. These are laws already on the books in florida. Many of them recent. And now florida sheriffs believe they can police YOU too bow with a little help from the feds. Spread this shit and demand answers.

Yeah that checks out

Also should be noted that, when it really comes down to it, progs/shitlibs have far more hatred for your average small business owner than MegaHomoGayCorp Inc.
