Weird place to mention that. But thanks?

I’m not trying to defend anyone here, though it might seem like that, but I’m not sure why valve is lumped in with this, especially since that’s the steam logo.

Steam, as a platform, hasn’t released much of anything, ever. Valve has been sitting mostly on the sidelines since half-life 2 episode 2 and HL:Alyx.

Steam itself is just a marketplace.

I get that a lot of publishers on steam will fall into the categories of games that are the subject of the meme, but I have a hard time piling steam with the games that are published on it.

And yes, corporations are not our friends, and all billionaires are bad billionaires, eat the rich and all that… I’m just saying. There’s a lot of bigger, much worse, fish to fry than gaben, valve, and steam in this discussion. That could have been EA’s logo, or the Xbox logo (or ms game studios or whatever) or any number of massive publishers that are relevant here. Using the steam logo is lazy at best.

That’s fair.

Is this a whataboutism?

Because this seems like a whataboutism.

Both for this and for healthcare.

The nurses are struggling to get a fair deal while somehow the billions a year put into healthcare goes where exactly?

Not to the front line staff, I’ll tell you that much.

And I get it, materials and equipment isn’t cheap but between nurses salaries and material costs, and the occasional multi-million dollar piece of equipment… I just don’t see where it’s all being spent. Between the middle and upper management, there needs to be an overhaul.

Education on every level isn’t dissimilar.

Hell, most government services need a review, at the very least.

Might have been. The way I heard it, the toggle was a button, like the turbo button.

When I was a kid, first using computers in the mid 1980s, blue LEDs were considered to be impossible to make.

So my basic bitch IBM clone only had red indicator lights.

The implication is that people who grew up with newer technology had stuff that was fancier than the stuff older generations had, which is objectively true.

I’m sorry that you didn’t get the joke, and I’m sorry that I had to explain it to you.

Good luck with life, seems like you’ll need it.

Blue?

Look at Mr fancy pants over here with blue power indicators on their childhood computer.

Most of us made due with red, or if you were lucky, green.

I don’t think I’ve seen these words assorted in this order before.

Hey now. Most of these people don’t know about turbo…

They certainly don’t know about the “magic/more magic” button…

I don’t mean to imply your job with writing your thesis on it is easy, the proof needed would be no easy task.

But it’s hard to flip through a history book and stop on any page, and not find something on the page that’s harmful to nature.

Proving that it’s harmful would be the part that’s hard. Finding the occurrences of harm is easy.

Seems like an easy subject. Just saying.

Canadian Tire?

Why am I not surprised.

How exactly does one suck a fuck?

I dunno why where it’s being used would be relevant… Unless horses are scientists

You must be fun at parties

They do. Ever have “banana flavor” stuff that doesn’t seem to taste anything like a banana?

… well, it does, it just doesn’t taste like a Cavendish banana. It most likely resembles the tates of the gros michel.

It’s not lost forever. They have seeds in the global seed vault, and there’s a few small growers still producing them.

You can actually buy a box of them still. They’re expensive as all hell, but you can do it.

Get a few friends together and put some money into a pot, then buy a box and have a banana party.

At least it’s tasty blood?

Idk, I’m trying to find the silver lining here.

Fun fact, I read your original as tarp, and it made sense, and the plastic fish comment confused me until I went back and re-read your original post.
