I think you might be misunderstanding my intent. I agree lol there really is no question, which is the better option.

Some people still might vote independent, or they might want to vote independent, but rather vote Democrat because they feel if they don't, they're not helping to fix the problem.

This is common in Canada as well. Having a ranked ballot or some sort of choice voting system would allow people to pick a primary or secondary choice in the event that their first pick doesn't have enough votes. That way, a vote wouldn't be left out, and everyone gets a say regardless of their first pick.

Canadian here.

I am not looking forward to this very much. If Trump gets into power, our local politicians are going to crank it into overdrive. They already pander to that demographic, so it's just going to get worse. Not nearly as bad as in America, but nobody wants to live under bad leadership and have their safety taken from them.

I don't really understand how we got to this point. But it just seems like all these grifters came out from the woodwork and are just being crazy in plain sight with no consequences now.

I'm sure they were always there, but I don't feel like it was nearly as bad as it has been. Maybe it's just recency bias clouding my memory, but like... dang.

I would love to see some sort of ranked ballot voting or other method of voting come into place for every democracy. No vote should go to waste because of having to pick between the lesser of two crappy choices.

It annoys me that we can understand this issue, but yet the people in power just don't seem to get it? Maybe they just don't care. It kinda feels like it's a game to them. Will high-ranking democrats really feel the pain from losing? I feel like people with money always seem to not be burdened nearly as much.

Thank you! I like it too haha. The battle network games are awesome

This made my morning :3

Edit: not a fan of Frank's new look, though. He looks...different.

Sorry for the late reply! This is an incredibly extensive list, thank you so much! I'll have to give the game another go at some point here. It seems super charming, so maybe if I go into it with this added knowledge, I'll be able to get my bearings. Have you tried the new game that just released a while back? I think it was called my time at Sandrock?

I am begrudgingly continuing my NG+ run of elden ring today so that I can play the DLC on Friday. It's my own fault because I started NG+ thinking I would get through it. But after an almost 200 hour first playthrough, I was done and put it down.

I am not a big fan of how the DLC requires you to get further into the game to play it. But that minor gripe aside, I am quite interested to see where they take us in the DLC. I'm thinking I'll need to fight my way to be able to respec again and I might go into the game as a spellcaster once more. Not quite sure just yet, but thinking about the possibilities is getting me a bit hyped haha

This was an insightful read. Thanks for sharing!

The first time I tried my time at Portia, I found building stuff took forever. I was trying to build a bridge(iirc?) And I felt like it was just going to be a lot of waiting. Was I playing it wrong?

Stardew Valley is the game that keeps on giving. At this point, I wish there was just more. More towns to visit, more activities, more everything.

The only thing that does kind of suck is that after year 1 I feel like I've kind of mastered whatever I was attempting to do. I've heard some people say after year 1 is where they enjoy the game the most, but idk I feel like by that point I'm making more money than I need and the only thing left to do is collect stuff or attempt the skull cavern.

But man. That first year is a blast. I've been thinking I should try out more mods or possibly a jojamart run at some point

Honestly, I have no idea how valid/effective the Chinese vaccine is. But stuff like this is bad for everyone, not just the people they were targeting. Short sighted plan, in my opinion.

Even more disturbing if it caused extra deaths.

You're very welcome, I'm glad! We definitely can get through this. :)
