Did anyone else die every 60 seconds playing through The Last of Us for the first time or do I just really suck at these kinds of games? Feels like playing a souls like where I just die until I randomly win, no matter how sneaky, or what weapon I equip. Makes me not want to keep playing

I finished Avowed. I got the best possible ending I could probably do on a first run. It's good. I enjoyed myself plenty. Will I play through again? Probably not until some major DLC, if any It's basically just RPG Doom Eternal, which is fine. Recommend. 8/10

If you didnt see Rachel lay into MSNBC tonight for their poor decisions, watch this

Like, I despise E Musk, but dunking on him by referencing ketimine is real like, DARE kid square behavior. You sound like narcs. You sound like hacks. There's plenty of other stuff to use to dunk on that fool without the K part. Ted Talk, out.

God didn't have anything to do with your football game you weird dumb nerds

Why is everything so aggressively boring now?

instead of kicking for the extra point there should be a panel of judges grading how cute their little touchdown dance was

Tom Brady is so bad at this. He just talked about himself for 5 minutes straight and it had nothing to do with anything going on in the game we're all watching.

Y'all, I'm a pretty hard lefty, and I love my hybrid jeep. No bootlicking commercial is going to change my mind

Absolutely not.

I can't wait to see this go to 30 unanswered points. The AFC must have really been a joke this year if this was the best they got.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

One of the biggest problems with adult learners is that many of them don't know how to ask questions productive for learning, and worse they don't KNOW they don't know how to ask those questions. This leads to large amounts of frustration as they struggle to find information through bad inquiries.

Trying to make this the habit instead of Threads.. Over here, everyone is doing a bit, or trying to go viral, on threads we're like actually taking to each other, but it's still so algorithmic.. I want the conversationally but without the forced perspective of the algo

Hot take, Lobo is a mid DC character. Very reactionary, created to respond to a changing comics market, subsequent attempts to embed character into key lore or big events is lackluster and meaningless at best, also Very boring. He's just a super-dick, Shallow and predictable. Not impressed.

That’s what it’s all about in the mix! youtu.be/X8ZtC18XgTU?...
