Start with something simple like Twilight Imperium, and work your way up to Cones of Dunshire.

Or try Tsuro. It’s very simple and quite nice.

I really don’t. Words do have meanings. If you use the wrong words people are going to assume you are talking about the things you are actually saying because they have no way of knowing what’s in your head.

Just ask my wife if she knows what I mean when I ask if she knows where “that doohickey” is. And that’s a fair bit better than a stranger on the internet talking about a “screwdriver” when they really meant “band saw.”

Edit: Also, Lemmy users are almost always on the same page when it comes to the word “liberal.” Even tankies agree on that one.

I would be genuinely envious of your bubble of blissful ignorance if the fact that you were on Lemmy didn’t strongly imply bad faith.

Liberals are center-right. Anti-regulation, anti-guardrails, anti-equity, anti-accountability, etc. Like conservatives, they are defined by all the things they are against. Mamdani is thankfully not liberal, which is precisely why he has voters excited while liberals and conservatives are having meltdowns.

It just goes to his campaign page. But yes, a good sign.

Which god? Sheva? Ra? Odin? Jupiter? Ishtar? Yu Huang? There are so many.

…which includes a fee called the “core technology commission” of 5% on all digital purchases made outside the App Store.

FAFO incoming.

But they just keep making him more cool.

I don’t consider any of Mamdani’s proposals especially left-wing, either. They’re all bare-minimum, common-sense social programs that pay dividends. The fact that people are going mad over this tells you exactly how far gone the US has become.

Not just Republicans, conservatives in general. All Republicans are conservative, but many Democrats are as well. That needs to change.

Mamdani shows it’s possible to start the purge of the DNC. We need to continue that. Primary every last conservative. Drive them from the DNC, drive them from politics, drive them from political discourse and public life. Authoritarianism must be crushed, Constitutional rights must be restored, and common sense policies for real people must be enacted. If we can’t achieve that, then all is lost and totalitarian neofeudalism will prevail.

The number of opinion pieces having meltdowns over Mamdani is simply off the charts. The fascists and neolibs are losing their minds about this. It’s incredible.

Mamdani isn’t even remotely radical as far as leftists go. What’s he’s proposing is just the bare minimum of common sense as far as the rest of the world is concerned.

Lock him up. Lock them up. Lock them all up.

Traitors and criminals. Every one.

I suppose I will continue to repost this, which summarizes the problem well, I think.

I wish Democrats were doing the same.

Someone who treats you and your likes as insignificant is not a significant other. Stop wasting your time with them and find someone that appreciates you for you.

On one hand, it’s reasonable for Americans to be upset with their taxes because they pay so much and get so little in return. On the other hand, you never see these people complaining about how so much their taxes go to corporate handouts and plunder instead of useful things like socialized health care, child care, housing, etc. instead it becomes all about them personally. It’s very telling. The US is a land of mentally ill sycophants.

Half by land, much more by population. California’s basic cost of living is insane. $150k would be “barely scraping by in a studio apartment” within 100 miles of any major city.

I love GURPS, but have since moved to the Cypher System, which is mechanically beautiful and rewarding like nothing I’ve ever seen.

Maybe they’re poor and only have a bathroom AK.
