Hence the desire for a single player offline version of the game...

Not everyone believes that devs are the authority on what makes a game fun, which is why mods are so common on PC games.

but that's part of it, just like irl.

Some people might not want annoying aspects of IRL in their fantasy escapism games involving roleplay...

That's the part I always hated. It was hostile towards people who liked the lore but didn't want to group up with some guy named LaserButt4000 who didn't want to go to the same dungeon as you, but was happy to get your rare loot in a bad roll of the dice.

Private servers with scaling for dungeon soloing were a godsend. WoW is actually awesome as a single player game. It's unfortunate the devs never realized that.

The people who could have possibly predicted that were also fired.

If I have to wait for an employee to unlock an item, I'm just buying it somewhere else, whether it's online or another brick and mortar that doesn't make me beg to spend money there. Same with stores that have passcode locks on their bathroom doors. I'm not asking a retail worker for permission to pee.

He also stacked the SCOTUS by contradictory practices, denying Obama a pick in the last year of his presidency but giving one to Trump. That has had grave consequences for recent rulings since Trump only nominated extreme conservatives.

About 90% of abortions are performed before 12 weeks, well before the fetus could even look like a post-birth baby like the one depicted in the meme. This is a common tactic of anti-choicers to depict abortion as being performed on fully formed and almost born fetuses. They try to use edge cases to argue against unrelated and more common experiences. Fetuses aren't conscious or sentient or viable when most abortions are performed. Don't let them get away with disingenuously conflating those concepts and milestones.

Apparently abortions are performed with all six infinity stones.

The Superman problem. Main sources of conflict tend to involve depowering, fighting another godlike, or threatening people they care about. Over and over again.

You don't have to like her music, but you have to respect her ability to sell her image and music.

Actually this is a point of conflict for some of her fans. Some of my friends are swifties and they hate consumerism and high concert prices and collectibles and marketing that incentivize FOMO to spend more money. They jokingly call her their capitalist queen.
