People aren't also willing to spend as much on Oreo's due to inflation so it's also probably that if theres a game or movie everyone's playing, sailing the seven seas is tried and true...and free.

Ngl that being said, I would live in one, it's a pretty nice studio imo.
Just a tactical cat nap, and they're workin hard!
I suspect people are not spending as much on nonessentials and businesses are seeing this as their workplaces being empty and not spending. But something tells me it's a nationwide thing, people are thinking twice due to inflation and I doubt bringing people back is gonna make them want to spend money the way they used to. My claim is based on layoffs and stocking issues.
Pretty much was posted as a reddit/lemmy comment as if after the fact. Though I'll admit it's more a summary of leaks irl put together and hastily written as if it was a comment reply in a thread.
Edit: also the OP comment on the invasion was in response to myself not the actual thread prompt 😅
And that 00.000000000000001% is Jon Stewart, cause why the hell not? He's got free time now 🤷♂️ and we haven't tried Democratic TV show host comedian yet on the Bingo chart.
This may be the best article I've read all year and its story of UI and the pointlessness of trying to convince someone who never valued you in the first place.

How did the invasion start and hows it going?
Me: You should have specified which invaders OP, but yeah my first experience was based on others experiences. My dad said he would see weird stuff in the middle of the night driving near old highway 58 and Zyzxx. Turns out all those leaks of human and alien collaboration in the mountains out there were true. And that the soldiers got pissed when they found out human abductions and experimentation were going on. The first reported battle happened there when a group of soldiers stormed the levels the abductees were stored at. They used energy weapons that mimicked microwave energy burns and I remember hearing about them much later when all those spies abroad were coming down with Havana Syndrome. When people figured out how to reverse engineer those weapons, that's when shit hit the fan. We had crossed the Rubicon as a species, and they were coming now to prevent us from continuing our breakthroughs. And they're not completely wrong, they were afraid we would use them for war and we did.....but expecting complete and utter fealty to them because they lended a hand in creating us. Yeah that was never gonna end well, and they slept on us out in space while we struggled and evolved the rest of the way on our own.
We'd had enough time to figure out at minimum how to mess up their electronics, accidentally during atomic bomb tests in the 50s or from reverse engineering. And so they were gobsmacked by the time their mothership arrived, because they realized they should have brought more backup on their multi-year long trip when they expected us to just completely give in to them with no pushback. We defended ourselves and to prevent the rest of the motherships from turning Earth into a galactic highway, the Galactic Federation stepped in and we laid out our case to the galaxy. There were rules of course, but after dealing with the nondemocratic nations and establishing new UN charters for how the free energy is going to be dispersed, we finally hit all the checks required to join and of course there are those who don't want us there, violently.
The Giant Squid up until it was discovered in the wild: "No one will ever fucking believe these guys lol"
Precedence for once. Glad this asshole lost his get out of trouble free card.
Look at fancy over here, Caesar's pizza is good for 10 minutes then turns into tonka toy plastic when its cooled.
There's no way they'd spend the next 150+ years trying to dismantle the government who beat them, from the inside right? Right...?
