THE FUCKING COMMIES WENT AND BLEW UP THE MOON

I am not at all a Car Guy, but tbh I’d love a Tankiemobile

pullin up to the party meetings in The Premier. I’d name mine Koba 😈

Downvoting because in Australia it’s an upvote.

Gamers complain, China fixes. Gamers continue to complain.

I will say I work in a very dangerous or crime-heavy location, so we have to deal with cops a LOT. An obscene amount. There is a rather arduous process involved… store management needs to be there to grant access, a warrant is required, etc.

Well, it’s mostly private surveillance so it’s ok. Muh property rights and all that.

Thing bad when gubment does it. Thing good when corporation does it!

I got a write-up for sitting on an SCO machine for all of 2 minutes when it was a ghost town in the store. Got called into the manager’s office and they showed me the footage.

It was surreal. Creepy as fuck. A reminder: we’re watching you.

Sometimes I stand around and look at the cameras, point at them even. I’m watching, too.

Work in retail. The amount of cameras is downright dizzying. Sometimes more cameras than people.

1. New Vegas is more accurately labeled an RPG with shooting mechanics as opposed to Fallout 4 and Starfield, which are shooters with some RPG elements.

There is quite a bit of combat, but you can beat the game without killing a single thing if you want.

2. Some mods I use and recommend:

Necessary

NVAC (New Vegas Anti Crash) - Hard recommendation.

FNV 4GB Patcher - Hard recommendation.

NVSE (New Vegas Script Extender) – Necessary for most mods.

YUP (Yukichigai Unofficial Patch) - Bugfixes.

Mod Configuration Menu - Lets you configure mods in-game.

New Vegas Stutter Remover - Hard recommendation.

Necessary for More Mods

JIP LN NVSE Plugin

lStewieAl’s Tweaks and Engine Fixes – Absolute ton of QoL improvements and options.

JohnnyGuitar NVSE

kNVSE Animation Plugin

Not Necessary, but I Like Em

More Perks – Adds more perks and traits to the game. Not necessarily super balanced.

Fallout Character Overhaul – Makes the game much less ugly.

New Vegas Enhanced Camera – Allows you to view your torso and legs in first-person.

JVS (Just Vanilla Sprint) – Allows you to sprint, using your AP as a sort of stamina bar.

Perk Every Level – Definitely unbalanced when considering what the developers were shooting for, but I’d personally much rather have a perk every level than every two. Even better with More Perks.

There are more. I would recommend checking out New Vegas’ most popular mods on NexusMods..

Plenty of other cool stuff, like new weapons, side-quests and companions. The game is genuinely great vanilla, too, though, and I wouldn’t recommend anything too crazy for your first run.

Not so vanilla you go without the anti-crash and stutter mods, though. Great game. Runs like hot garbage.

Don’t let the images or my descriptions make anyone reading paranoid. It feels like even mentioning the words “bed bug” is enough to manifest them into existence, sometimes. You probably know if you have them. If you’re worried, be on the lookout for stains like those in the spoiler, and cylindrical off-white tubes about the size of a pen’s tip. Kill on sight, and show no mercy. They will show you none.

Thanks for the advice. My parents constantly get them, making it nigh impossible to spend the night at their house.

I swear it was so bad when I lived with them it horribly exacerbated my unaliving tendencies. They’re cursed little monsters (I’m allergic, too!) and the world would be better off if they were annihilated imo.

Cuba does something similar from my understanding.

Basically, stockpile weapons in a secured location, and in the event that they’re necessary, give em out to civilians reasonably expected to handle them with care.

I say “give em out to civilians”, but it’s civilians who decide when and why they’re distributed anyway. How a DOTP functions.

omg

This is a joke, I think. I think it’s kinda funny in a really fucked up kinda way lol.

I mean, he talks about using the momentum he’s gained here to literally reverse Brexit , and claims he wants a “new lover” who looks like his dead wife. I really hope it’s somebody running a really long joke.

I’ve taken to calling it (voting for the Other Guy) harm redirection. That is perhaps still too charitable a take.

tw: gr**ming

What’s the difference?

I would not say without a fight. The Finnish Whites massacred the Finnish Reds (…and by extension anyone at all thought to be sympathetic to workers).

https://www.marxists.org/archive/serge/1930/year-one-sa/finland2.html

The victors massacred the vanquished. Since ancient times class wars have always been the most frightful. There are no more bloody and atrocious victories than the victories of reactionary classes. Since the blood-bath inflicted on the Paris Commune by the French bourgeoisie, the work had not seen anything comparable to the horrors of Finland. From the first shot of the civil war, “belonging to a workers’ organization in White territory meant arrest; to have been an official in such organization meant execution. The massacre of socialists reached such proportions that it ended by interesting no one.” At Kummen, where 43 Red Guards fell in battle, nearly five hundred persons were executed! There were “hundreds” executed at Kotka, a town of thirteen thousand inhabitants. “They didn’t even ask their names; they just led them away in groups.” At Raumo, according to a bourgeois newspaper, “five hundred prisoners captured on May 15 got the punishment they deserved the same day.” “April 14 in Toeloe, a suburb of Helsingfors, two hundred Red Guards were killed with machine guns … The Reds were hunted from house to house. Many women perished.” At Sveaborg the public executions were set for Trinity Sunday. In the neighborhood of Lakhtis, where the Whites took thousands of prisoners, “the machine guns worked several hours a day.” “On one day alone two hundred women were killed with dumdum bullets; pieces of flesh flew in every direction.”

It’s unwise to assume truth regarding breaking news, especially when it’s continents away. We mustn’t so quickly forget the “Russian bombing” of Poland that wound up being a Ukrainian misfire. Panic damn near caused WW3.

I recommend Revolt of the Angels by Anatole France. One of the greatest ‘Romantic Satanist’ pieces out there, and written by a communist no less!
