ultimately, the federal Depart- ment of Education should be eliminated.

Direct Quote from Project 2025

Thanks to schools, I can read and understand that when someone says “we want to eliminate public education” they mean “we want to eliminate public education.”

This alone is enough reason to vote democrat. Eliminating public education means fewer people will be educated enough to know when they’re lied to. I know the democrats are a bunch of shiteating liars but they have enough of a chance to win and they’re not trying to defund school and those two reasons are literally enough to vote for them.

There’s a large number of people out there that think “everything sucks right now and there’s a democrat president, so to make things different I should vote republican”

Fund schools. Keep the department of Education in existence and quadruple its funding.

A lot of the music I’ve heard from her (supposedly she’s been making music for like 10 years but I’ve only heard her most recent album and single) is about the pain of being a flamboyant, proud, energetic queer woman who has been in multiple situationships with women who don’t believe themselves to be queer, or who aren’t out of the closet.

I’m a sucker for emotional contrast so I can’t get enough of the upbeat sound she has since it pairs so well with the sadness.

“Good Luck Babe” is specifically about being in a relationship with a woman who is in denial about being a lesbian; hence “you’d have to stop the world just to stop the feeling so good luck, babe”

“Casual” is another good one about having a physical relationship with someone who insists that it’s casual and just a phase but Chappell knows it’s more meaningful to the person deep down but can’t avoid the pain that comes from that person denying her queerness and transitively denying the meaning that Chappell has in her life.

The sound probably isn’t for everybody, but the intensity of the feelings that are conveyed through the music are something I know every human can relate to.

Her music is infectious. Think 80’s Madonna if she were progressive, very lesbian, and even sadder and somehow more vengeful than Alanis Morissette

I’m a huge fan of Burnout Paradise. The crash physics and cameras are so addicting that I’ll drive up and down the same street just flipping my car on its roof using the same split ramp just to see the carnage. The driving is a wonderful arcadey feel that makes insane turns easy to pull off, and the crashes make those insane turns addicting to completely fail.

Many people say the early Burnout games are better, but I’ve never played them and Paradise has remained entertaining for 17 years

Ben 10 is like Transformers or Fast & Furious. The characters and story really don’t matter. They just need a plausible set up for insane, cool action setpieces with impressive VFX for the movie to be enjoyable. So I’m disappointed it’s not happening, but tbh I didn’t even know it was possibly happening in the first place.

I’d love to think that this will be good. The first game is a very relevant story about police states and technological privacy and how that could be abused not just by the state but by crime syndicates as well.

Too bad it’s a Ubisoft IP… sigh

I really enjoyed Doom 2016 for leaving the entire identity of the Doom Slayer up to the player’s. They were no longer the “Doom guy” but were now just this eminent force with very big hands. They might as well have been god and I thought that was really cool. It was less cool when you saw his face and heard his voice in Doom Eternal
