In many cases, not even forced, just given the option to play as a non-straight character in a way that’s mostly irrelevant to the actual game!

I’ve been playing Borderlands lately, and this feels like it could have been lifted straight from a side quest with Hammerlock!
Found the guy who is afraid to wear skinny jeans or use a normal diaper bag.

dmention7@midwest.socialto politics @lemmy.world•Trump quietly abandons all-caps tirades after Newsom's trolling spree1·4 days agoWhy is he able to continue dismantling the country? Because a significant number of people support what he is doing in some way or another.
Why do they support him? Because his messaging, as inane as it is, resonates with a lot of people who genuinely see him as a strong, confident leader.
Why do they see him as a strong confident leader? Because he talks and acts like a schoolyard bully, and a lot of people mistake overcompensating for insecurity as confidence.
It’s not going to work on all of his supporters, but just like with the Epstein Files (WHICH HE STILL HAS NOT RELEASED), if some chunk of his supporters see the emperor is naked, it erodes the mystique. Fact-checking him is useless because Trumpism is all about feelings–at least SOMEONE is realizing this and taking advantage of it.
Trade me some energy and you’ve got a deal lol
Yeah, Energy + Money needs to be like your first 5 years out of university, assuming you landed a good job. Most of my adult life has felt like a full money bar, but empty time and energy.
Here’s to getting old I guess, so at least I can have some time again! 🍻
dmention7@midwest.socialtoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•Newsom is trolling Trump with his own tweets6·5 days agoRegular people have no problem being called weird (in fact, a lot of us actively celebrate our weirdness), but a fascist movement simply falls apart without the solid conviction that they’re the only sane and normal ones.
Somehow I had never made this connection until just now! It always struck me that just calling them “weird” seemed so effective, since it’s not even really an insult, but this makes complete sense.
Lean is thought to have developed in Houston around the 1960s, when blues musicians would take Robitussin and cut it with beer.
What the actual fuck
They had us in the first 89%, not gonna lie!

dmention7@midwest.socialto Terrible Estate Agent Photos@feddit.uk•"Step right up to the home of your dreams (or your coolest nightmares!) "0·24 days agoWith the ludicrous amount of HDR in those photos, I bet most of the individual rooms don’t even look great on their own. Which is kind of a shame, because at least they were going for a bold anesthetic and had some idea how to pull it off–even if the execution missed.
Also, my neck hurts, just looking at how high up that TV is in the cave lol
dmention7@midwest.socialto politics @lemmy.world•Trump says Epstein ‘stole’ victim Virginia Giuffre from Mar-a-Lago3·24 days agoHonestly I didn’t even think about that part. When I first heard the interview on the radio this morning, I imagined they were talking about experienced massage therapists or something. Nah, they were kids working their first job, not even out of HS.
You’re 100% correct that under normal legit circumstances, not even their direct supervisor would give a shit about a 17 year old changing service industry jobs. The fact that Trump not only knew about this, but cared about it to this degree, is very fucking weird.

Oh, I totally agree! My comment was mainly being facetious
dmention7@midwest.socialto News@lemmy.world•Ghislaine Maxwell asks US supreme court to overturn conviction14·25 days agoSeems like the play will be: She releases a list of names that include lots of people Trump doesn’t like and omits anyone he likes, DoJ says “wow, she just helped us crack this thing wide open, super helpful!”, leniency is granted, and the country moves on from the whole thing satisfied with the knowledge that Clinton and some other democrats were the only pedophiles after all!

Yeah who would want to deprive themselves of luxuries for awhile, and then reminisce about the experience later!?
😐
dmention7@midwest.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What was something that you thought was overhyped that actually lived up to the hype?2·25 days agoYep, they are convection ovens on steroids when it comes to the amount of airflow.
I was firmly on team “LOL it’s a baby convection oven, big whoop” for years, but an actual purpose-made air fryer (not a toaster oven with air fry mode) cooks like an entirely different appliance.
Vot de fuk!?!?
