Individual votes don't count nearly as much as corporate cash.

This is the epitome of late stage capitalism in the US.

Straight out of Cyberpunk Edgerunners.

Where everyone else saw a corporate dystopia, LG saw profit.

Definitely should be shelved under Educational.

Star By Star. Reading through the old EU New Jedi Order books again. The old EU is the best part of Star Wars.

My crappy basement apartment with my two older brothers and 3 separate phone lines just for playing Ultima Online, then Everquesst.

I missed a phone interview with Sony Online Entertainment, because I was too busy playing Asheron's Call to get off the dial-up connection. Having an unlimited access plan through my work really was bad. Especially when my job blocked every website based on my job searches because they wanted me to stay working the support line graveyard shift.

I had to stop smoking weed for medical brain damage reasons, and ended up gifting 4 grams of concentrate and all my glassware to a cool neighbor.

Multiple hundred dollar bongs and a $300 Opal set in a dab rig.

Back on opiates for pain, but he was a cool kilt wearing bastard.

Just pretend like you're adding a new server, just use the old server to login again. It did that to me after the exploit got fixed.

I'm really digging Liftoff on Android. Simple and painless.

Disney changed their intro to Steamboat Willie to stop that. It will take a legal fight to get them to obey the rules.

It took me 6 years,and a lot of lowering nicotine strength. I haven't touched my vape in a year now and still have a box full of vape liquid.

Vaping made it easier to stop when nothing else would help. The laws that limited flavors and sales would have hampered my efforts, buy I was lucky enough to have fully quit when they finally came into effect.

Same here. My dad was hard left hippie, but the step-mom was far right racist from Oregon. I ended up with half my family in Gen X, with me and my little brother as millennial.

But, most of us dropped further anarchist than just liberal. I think it all comes down to money. All of my family are still as poor or poorer than we were growing up.

Only when people become wealthy as they grow up really become more conservative I think.

It's the only thing that hurts my cold empty heart.
