Just having some fun with snapseed on my phone.

Edited from Bosch because my phone thinks it’s funny…

I remember during trumps first term, that this was circulating around (on reddit at the time), that there is no way republicans make it out unscathed. Then covid hit, and the same discussions were happening, “so many more Republicans are dying than Democrats! There is no way another Republican will win!” And then last November happened. And not only did trump win a second time, but also the House and Senate fell under republican control.

So while I like your optimism, and fully support it, you’ll have to cut everyone a little bit of slack. Seeing as how we’ve been promised the demise of the Republican party and platform for a long time now.

Agreed, also live in Michigan, and not that I know EVERYONE in this state, I find it really hard to believe that the state as a whole would go for this.

I nuked my reddit account from orbit back when the API fiasco hit and haven’t looked back. My understanding is it’s become even more a shithole since.

I have people at my work that are so so strongly anti-union, and it makes zero sense, because even basic googling will tell you what our specific union has fought for and accomplished over the decades, and how they are directly benefiting from it. But, no one is immune to propaganda, and wow did these people buy it hook line and sinker.

Exactly. And I 100% support the VAs for striking, they need to protect their craft from being exploited by AI.

I mean, I played Genshin for a long time too, and I never whaled on it, Welkin Moon was my jam, just to get some extra pulls for characters I was excited to have and play. So, I was used to the MC being pretty unspoken, and I can appreciate that at least from a narrative perspective, allowing the player to insert their own voice and what not (although I really like both Lumine and Stelle’s English VAs though, really criminal Lumine had so few spoken lines.)

Jesus. I was already pretty upset about them replacing VAs every other patch, and now replacing VAs because of the strike. I think I’m done, Star Rail. Which is sad because I was really enjoying the story. But I can’t really support a game that behaves like that.
