I was thinking about why so many in the radical left participate in "speedrunning"

The reason is the left's lack of work ethic ('go fast' rather than 'do it right') and, in a Petersonian sense, to elevate alternative sexual archetypes in the marketplace ('fastest mario') 1/14

Yep, because if there's one thing speedrunners never do, it's spending days/months/years working to master something.

ok but this is the secret best part (also: profile pic of Commander Shepard)

In the sexual marketplace, which archetypes are simultaneously deemed the most creative and valued the highest? 10/14
The answer is obviously entrepreneurs like Elon Musk and others.

I did speak about this with my wife before posting, even, and she seemed excited and leant me some ideas for how to resolve the "glitchless 100%" question.

Tom is not a raccoon that gains power legitimately over the player. Instead, he forces the player into a contract against their own free will/choice.

He is not a true capitalist. This is the act of an authoritarian pretending to be a capitalist. A wolf in sheep's clothing.

It is telling that leftists derive pleasure from this act of being dominated by a masculine figure (the male Tom) pretending to be a capitalist.

Read into that what you will.

I think the message is fairly obvious.

PS: I do not know if "Tom" is in the recent "Animal Crossing" as I have not played it (or any of them).

By playing Animal Crossing, you, the player, agree to the terms and conditions laid out by Tom.

No, the actual reason Tom is not a true capitalist is that he is a monopolist.

I "love" how the scare quotes suddenly show up in the PS. I get the impression that our boy here is suddenly worried that ever having played Animal Crossing, or even knowing too much about it, will damage his cred as a big, strong, manly capitalist.

He's half-right. Tom is not a raccoon, he's a Bake-danuki (化け狸).

That's why all the items in Animal Crossing transform into leaves in a puff of smoke. They're all magical illusions.

Illusions, you say? Like the value of money under capitalism? 🤔

I'm not defending capitalism here, but I think it's worth making the distinction between something that's an illusion and something that's socially constructed. A word has no meaning beyond the one that people give it, just as a commodity has no value beyond the one that people give it, but that doesn't mean that the concepts of linguistic meaning or monetary value are just illusions that we should or can ignore.

If I have hurt anyone out there, I can’t tell you how much I say from the bottom of my heart I’m so very, very sorry. I pride myself and think of myself as a man of faith, as there’s a drive into deep left field by Castellanos and that’ll be a home run, and so that’ll make it a 4-0 ballgame.

Regarding fanservice, he's not eliminating it but changing the way he approaches it. The developer is clearly a big fan of it. This game wont have them talking in the shower nude from different angles and several scenes with all the girls in bras and panties talking in the locker room but he found a way to get it in. The game has a big (and I mean BIG) emphasis on the shape of their rear ends, going beyond the typical flat or oddly shapped butts of other games including the previous Blue reflection, plus there is a huge emphasis on how the girls walk. The hip movements and the way they move....boy. I was watching some one walk around in that green preorder bikini bottom, with her hips swinging and how small it was, I was ready to explode! lol! Its not like those other censored rpgs where the bikinis are like granny panties and fit like diapers because skin showing is a sin...

But seriously, wherever you found this I suggest you stay far away from lest you want the feds monitoring your internet usage.

Woke joke

A man walks into a bar

The bartender says " Are you a racist ? "

The man says " Absolutely not. I abhor every form of
racism "

The barman says " I'm with you there, 100% "

Not hilarious, but in no way problematic

( And, I promise, NOT a pro-racist statement )
