The gag in this screenshot is also a call-back to S1E05, where Peralta is interrogating a perp and trying to “annoy him into confessing” by playing a guitar poorly and screaming.

It’s very likely to become my most recent “doesn’t need all my attention” game, as I always need one of those on deck (if you’ll pardon the expression).
Alright, I was probably going to play it anyway even with dips down to the low 20s. But if we’re not even at the full release yet and the modding scene is already squeezing more out of that bottom 1%, I’m just biting the bullet and buying the damned game.
For anyone in the same boat, Fanatical is selling the pre-release versions of the game for 17% off, packaged with a random “highly rated” Steam game. My freebie was Reventure, which is regularly $8.99 CAD.
The only support this pussbag deserves is a set of pallbearers.
What we need to do is de-incentivize the commodification of housing entirely. Really make it unprofitable to deal in homes while passing the risk for your “investment” on to the people you’re exploiting.
I’m talking about an outright ban on all corporations, foreign and domestic, from owning single family homes — corporations need offices, not homes, and shell corporations and LLCs don’t even need those. Give a one year grace period, then tax all rental income collected from single-family homes at 100%. Maybe fine them each year too until they shape up.
I’m talking about regulating rental prices on short-term rentals, and capping the annual income allowed from short-term rental units to a value indexed against minimum wage (or preferably the area’s living wage, determined not by any level of government itself but by valid third party organizations).
I’m talking an annual federal tax on properties not occupied full time by the owner or their immediate blood relative. Parent, sibling, or child. Something insane, maybe 400-800% of the home’s property tax. Multiply it exponentially for each hoarded home. Throw in an exception for a second home if it’s far enough from the first (people who own cottages aren’t the problem, and shouldn’t be penalised). But only for the second home — nobody needs two or three or four “vacation homes”.
That’s how we force land-rich boomers out of the housing “market” and get homes into the hands of people who need them, who should have a right to stable housing, who are currently being blocked from the market by vampiric land leeches.
Boo — and I cannot stress this enough — fucking hoo.
Federation of downvotes/reduces and upvotes/favorites is spotty at best, even across instances that are definitely otherwise federated.
Ooof, this hit me right in the childhood.
This is one of those chapter-turning public figure deaths for me. The last one was Betty White, and before that was Robin Williams — almost mythical figures whose names and faces I’d known since before I can remember, who it almost felt like would just always be around.
RIP, Bob. You’ve earned it.
I love them all.
Except for the “blue steel” ones. It’s not even kind of a “blue steel” pose. Like not even a little bit. It’s inaccurate and uncreative and, even worse, just unfunny.
It genuinely is my favourite facial tissue on the Citadel.
Well shit. This is a problem for me, since the Kleenex brand is the only one with a lotioned variety that stores in my neck of the woods seem to carry. My seasonal allergies get so bad that normal/un-lotioned tissues leave my nose rubbed raw, even if I’m medicated.
They’re cowards and just recorded the numbers he gave them, so he’s still “officially” 6’3" and 215lbs.
Man, fuck Jordan Peterson.
Hard to argue with that logic.
It’s my favourite as well. My parents watched TNG and DS9 when I was a kid, but Voyager was the first Trek that I went out of my way myself to watch. Kathryn Janeway is high on my list of personal (albeit fictional) heroes.
~~I read an article just this morning that said it’s expected to release with version number 1.6.35 or something, meaning they been patching and updating it ahead of release. That’s likely what the delays have been about — to polish it up in advance to avoid the kind of negative press that surrounded Cyberpunk 2077 at release, which came from a studio that had a great deal more goodwill from the community than Bethesda.

Sure, if Valve ever releases it.
There isn’t a punishment anywhere close to severe enough for stains like this.
Fully functional.
Oh man, this was me trying to defeat Detleff in the final boss fight of Witcher 3’s Blood & Wine DLC.
I have no idea what I’m going to do when I get to that fight in my Death March playthrough…
