I'd just be waiting for a super mutant raiding party to show up and toss a missile at that house.

The USDA wanted to ban flavored milks from elementary schools and limit the amount of said milks within high schools as part of a wave of new nutrition standards.

I think this is the only data the congressman and his milk industry lobbyists cared about:

According to the Journal of the American Dietetic Association, removing flavored milk from schools resulted in a 62% to 63% reduction in milk consumption by kids in kindergarten through fifth grade, as well as a 50% reduction in sixth to eighth grades.

Basically, ban flavored milks and children will drink less milk, which means less money for big milk, which is why this is a thing.

I'm so confused. So the STP are illegal and bad, but they're under Trump's control, but then there's a pro-Trump sticker? And a Yandex email account. So many mixed signals.

No, obnoxious elitism breeds controversy - or more likely, indifference.

Don't forget the hundreds or thousands of dollars it'll take to wire up your whole house with Ethernet plus the wireless router you'll need anyway for any device that doesn't have an ethernet plug

And here we finally have the primary motivation for this comment.

Well we won't know for sure on those for a few years. All we have are old FTC docs and no public statements. Regardless, existing games aren't going anywhere. But even if it happens for future games, well, Sony's been sowing this harvest for some time.

At least you can still play on PC on day one. Can't do that with PS exclusives.

Lol I'm unhinged? The fuck is this shit, bro?

You need to step away from the internet and rethink your life choices. Your behavior is not healthy and you clearly have mental health issues that you desperately need to get looked into.

Let's me clear - the "sexual conduct in front of minors" was literally this, as far as I can tell:

  1. In a theater that happens to have minors in the audience
  2. Boyfriend grabs her boob
  3. She grabs his crotch.

First of all, no one gives a shit about #2 enough to call out his behavior. Wierd. Second of all, if you've never play grabbed in a dark movie theater with your SO, I feel bad for your relationships. Third, it's not like she whipped his dick out and started rubbing her snatch in the seat.

Was it inappropriate and trashy? Absolutely. Is she a sexual predator or a deviant because of it? No, chill the fuck out dude. Calling her sex life unhealthy is a huge stretch. And the fact that no one is calling the guy a sexual deviant is a little suss.

Speaking of dipshit, read my fucking comment before responding.

I'm not defending her behavior in the theater. She was being a nuisance and had every right to be kicked out.

But this meme isn't making fun of her for being a nuisance. Or of inappropriate sexual conduct in front of minors. Or vaping in a crowded theater.

This meme is making fun of a woman for having a sex life.

Um....Sony was in talks to pay for Starfield to be a PS exclusive - which would have taken it from PC for a year and from xbox permenantly - until MS bought Beth.

Also, Starfield is a new IP, not an "already existing and widely popular" one..

I'll also mention that Phil Spencer publically admonished and fought against exclusivity agreements for years. He has said in interviews both private and public that he prefers a world where there are no exclusives. Until the market spoke and declared "exclusives" to be the measuring stick of a platform's health, thus forcing his hand. And now here we are.

Well there's the fact that you omitted Sony and Nintendo from your criticism entirly, despite the fact that both companies have bought numerous studios and paid other studios to make games exclusively for their respective platforms for decades, thereby reducing their potential revenue for some benefit that's clearly obvious to those companies.

And yet, when Microsoft does it....they are just limiting their potential market for no reason and it's obviously a stupid business move. Sure. Seems a little sus, is all.

Either the entire fucking industry is guilty of this "bad business practice" or maybe there's a calculated reason for it. Pick one.

Right, I forgot I was talking to "PM_ME_FEET_PICS", a paragon of morality.

I'm not defending her behavior in the theater. She was being a nuisance and had every right to be kicked out.

But this meme isn't making fun of her for being a nuisance. Or of inappropriate sexual conduct in front of minors. Or vaping in a crowded theater.

This meme is making fun of a woman for having a sex life. And that's fucking gross, no matter who the target is. "How many balls to chin did she take?" Does it fucking matter? Do we need a bj limit for elected officials? Who fucking cares? Yeah, she's a hypocrite and that needs to be called out, but the critique can't just stop at "oooh she gives bjs".

Kennedy took a lot of vag to the face and no one bats an eye. Clinton got a bj in the white house and Monica Lewinsky got the most hate for it. This practice of shaming women for being sexual is gross and stupid and incel-level masogyny that needs to fucking stop.

Because it works, because I can use ublock on mobile (and a few other cool extensions), and most importantly, because I feel good about using it.

I have Vivaldi installed in case i need a chromium browser but I rarely ever need it.
