Reality vs Adventure

Republicans also made it illegal for college staff to have any form of cultural training with staff. When you have universities that are very diverse, and people go there from all walks of life from different countries, even exchange students, you have to know how to interact with them. To ban that kind of training is absurd. Everything from medical students, dietetics, to business, law, and most things I can think of including teaching itself, requires a cultural understanding. But republicans want to demonize cultural understanding as part of their war on critical race theory. Let’s see how far republicans go on their college attacks. sue-check mandatory survey-check ban cultural training-check What’s next…

Parents are coming to the plate and they are attacking students and school staff. It’s going to be more difficult for republicans to indoctrinate universities because they aren’t dealing with kids anymore but grown adults who want the challenge of higher education. So we will see how they attack colleges going forward. So far they allow suing colleges if they got their poor feelings hurt and also mandatory surveys the students and staff have to take so republicans can see the ‘culture’ of the college. It’s already been passed now which is highly unconstitutional. But with republican state supreme courts and majority republican federal Supreme Court, the constitution will get thrown out the window. No way in hell should it ever be legal to force students or staff to survey their beliefs. I hope everybody rejects it. And what happens when they reject it, the colleges going to get their fundings pulled? Yep, that’s exactly what’s going to happen. And on top of that allow students to sue for any reason. Republicans can’t hide behind kids and parents anymore, so now they have full intention of punishing finances of colleges until everything goes toward their favor. And then they will attack textbooks and courses. Blue states will have a high international standard of education and that’s where people will want to go to learn while red state colleges will be all jacked up teaching 3rd grade level courses since critical thought is banned. Degrees that require interaction among different groups of people, right wingers will be ill trained, unprepared, and unable to compete with the rest of the population and world. That’s going to take a huge toll on the country as the republicans drag the USA behind in educational and technological progress.

This is only your opinion and not in any way universal. I have a few games I've played that are close to what I consider a masterpiece, but a true masterpiece I'll say The Last of Us series and Layers of Fear series. There are some games that I think are a masterpiece in their own right which would be Assassin's Creed Odyssey and GTA 5, each with its own flaws. But I can't find any flaws that I consider in TLOU. Potential games I think that are borderline masterpiece have a longer list, but I'll leave it off for now as to not make this a favorite game topic, but instead a focus on MASTERPIECE Which games would you consider to be a masterpiece?

That must have been an El Niño year where the north is hotter and the south is cooler. Or plain global warming. Soon it will feel like Death Valley everywhere

It's becoming more clear by the day that American republicans are dominated by racist policy. Interracial marriage was legalized in the U.S. in 1967 by the supreme court. Republican senator Mike Braun has just said that interracial marriage should be left up to the states. A reporter asks, "So you would be OK with the Supreme Court leaving the question of interracial marriage to the states?” Mike Braun, "Yes" https://www.yahoo.com/news/gop-sen-mike-braun-says-213130114.html Why would anyone be ok with having states decide what ethnicity you can marry? Are we eventually going to have a country where half the states have a ban on marrying outside your ethnicity? A poll was done in 2011 by Public Policy Polling and they asked this question to Mississippi republicans: "Do you think interracial marriage should be legal or illegal?" and 46% voted to make interracial marriage illegal. I had no idea this has been a quiet debate going on for a decade now. With the republican super majority supreme court, anything is possible now. We aren't racist, but we want to ban interracial marriage! They want the government to control every aspect of American lives.

My reasons are because it has tons of side activities to do that are super fun and crazy like the firetruck, play a cop, helicopter rides, tramp escort, ambulance, boat rides etc. It has a dystopia feel which I love. My character I created through customization is awesome. You can pay for plastic surgery to change your character looks. Most games you can't. The gameplay is amazing. It's over the top GTA. It's like they took all the best out of GTA and put it together into one and took it to another level. GTA 5 still stands as one of the best games in this genre, but SR 2 goes beyond the pale. If you love GTA, this is a must. You can save your vehicles, customize them, get tattoos, piercings, makeup, clothing, or go nude, or walk around in underwear. Graphics are superb for a ps3 gen. Music is great. And when you exit the vehicle, you can still hear the music while you cap people or drink a 40 oz. It's just an all around fun game that I can't get enough of. You can have a theme for your gang members. Mine is pimps and prostitutes. You can always change it. Not a game for children, that's for sure.

It's happening; the change in temperature has major tornadoes all over Texas and the south. It's going to be a bad year no doubt. I haven't been to Jamaica but I imagine there is an ocean breeze at least. Texas is a stale sauna with 100% humidity and 0 wind You will never die of thirst in Texas at least. Just drink the dew from grass every morning and evening lol

Older generation consoles I get used unless a new one has a good sell. And my version of ps3 isn't ps2 compatible so I can't buy digital. For ps4 I always buy new. I prefer hard disc and my favorite games I will only shop for hard disc. Others I don't mind buying digital. I don't think it's wise to always buy digital cause what if a satellite gets melted by aliens and no more internet. At least you got the discs you can always download.

Thanks! That's appreciated. Since @Crazycrab is already nominated who made some pretty thoughtful posts, I'll pick @kingpotato. Always fun to read his posts.

Come down and take a tour to the USA and witness these backstabbers who love Russia more than their own country and maybe you would understand my intolerance of fuck heads who kneels to Putin because they love the strong man controlling them. So I'm sorry for offending you, but I've had it with these traitors.

First off, who the fuck voted for Bush? I ask because Bush was a fucking republican idiot Russia invaded Chechnya 1999 anti-terrorist campaign Russia invaded Chechnya 2004 - oil Russia invaded Georgia 2008 for power So why again are we stuck on the USA for invading Afghanistan 2001 and Iraq 2003? Are we going to discuss all history of wars the past 20 years to justify today's invasion??? This post is @Jayson trying to comfort Russia and you fell for it

NO, Putin is making them ultra nationalists by his attack and threatening his own citizens with imprisonment and brutality. Russian citizens are already either Putin supporters or Alexei Navalny supporters who Putin poisoned and jailed.

Saints Row 2 Music North Americans!!! LOL Fuck it. North Americans. Shame. Not English. North Americans. Stupid Fucks. Saints Row. Stupid Fuck North Americans

How many people have actually played the game? Playing games in the same genre, I have to say Saints Row 2 deserves respect. It deserves awards that it never got. I won't let it pass in undiscovered territory. It's a must play. Out of all the driving type games I've played, this game beats them all and it's a ps3 generation game as what I'm playing on.

I won't pass it up again I'll tell you that. I just got into the genre and respect it full now.

I can spend a long while playing that game. I saw Deus Ex Mankind Divided for super cheap a month or two ago and I regret passing it up.

You don't know what the hell you are talking about and trying to say the extremist left and pushing agendas while in real life the right wing goes to school board meetings and insults gay students, one girl was crying and there is a video of it; right wing parents have physically assaulted students. A grown man physically attacked a female student for christ's sake. They are extremely hostile at school board meetings and even are training on how to storm those meetings. They send death threats to school boards and staff; school board members had their homes vandalized; militias like proud boys and people's rights stormed a school board meeting; All you have to do is a search on the web on the attack of public schools and all sorts of things come up what the right wing is doing. Then trump just recently says "lay down their lives" in reference to fighting CRT. Here is a link from what I mentioned earlier how a far right group of moms was infiltrated and how they spoke of bounties and monetary compensation to go after teachers. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/far-right-extremist-moms_n_61ba330de4b0456499dcc9bf And finally, why would republicans pass bills to make it illegal to talk about amendments of the constitution in schools? All these amendments are now illegal to discuss in the TX bill: 13th, 14th, 15th, 19th, and 26th amendments. Or history like the civil war, civil rights, women's suffrage etc.? All these things is now illegal to discuss in Tx schools and note that you can't even say the KKK is morally wrong: *writings of George Washington; Ona Judge; Thomas Jefferson; Sally Hemings; any other founding persons of the U.S.; Frederick Douglas's Newspaper; Northstar; Book of Negroes; Fugitive Slave Acts of 1793 and 1850; Indian Removal Act; Jefferson's Letter to Danbury Baptists; William Still's Underground Railroad Records; *Historical documents related to the civic accomplishments of marginalized populations; Chicano movement; women's suffrage and equal rights; civil rights movement; Syner Act of 1924; American Labor Movement; *History of white supremacy, including but not limited to the institution of slavery, eugenics movement, Ku Klux Klan, and the ways in which it is morally wrong *History and the importance of the civil rights movement; MLK Jr Letter from Birmingham Jail; I Have a Dream Speech; federal Civil Rights Act of 1964; *Brown vs Board of Education; Emancipation Proclamation; Universal Declaration of Human Rights; 13th 14th and 15th amendments of the constitution; Frederick Douglas Narrative of the Life; An American Slave; Life and Work of Cesar Chavez; Life and Work of Dolores Huerta; *History and Importance of the Women's Suffrage Movement; Federal Voting Rights Act of 1965; 15th 19th and 26th amendments of the constitution; Abigail Adam's Letter Remember the Ladies; Works of Susan B Anthony; Declaration of Sentiments; Life and Works of Dr. Hector Garcia; League of United Latin American Citizens; Hernandez vs Texas; So please stop your lies and bullshit when it is your team fascist USA that is the extremists pushing agendas and it's all in the proof of bills they are passing, unlike your nonsense claims. It's all in the bills, all in the bills, all in the bills. You can't lie or deny when it's all in the fucking bills. Can't discuss the USA constitutional amendments? How anti-American are you people???

You had your chance to debate abortions and you refuse to respond to any points made. How is this any different? You going to make a 100 posts about abortion and when you don't know what to say you start a new one? And why do you feel the need to point out any ethnic groups that get abortions? Why target one ethnicity and say you don't know the percentage of all groups? Isn't it fair to include all groups if you want statistics? You are really targeting blacks tonight. The true you is unraveling.

You made a post how people experience racism and then you just went off on blacks, cities, and pop culture saying it promotes degenerate culture. You've got some issues man, seriously. I think you are out of touch and it shows in most of your posts. Seriously, anyone else offended by this crap?

I think you posted that on the wrong topic. Lol

Again, you fail to understand that this isn’t about the USA. There are countries all over the world that sanctioned Russia. There are corporations and businesses that have also responded worldwide. Stop your anti American fussing and placing all blame on one country when asshole Putin has committed war crimes and triggered a worldwide response. Nobody forced Russia to attack civilians in Ukraine, attack the country of Ukraine, attack their own Russian citizens, commit war crimes, kidnap mayors, put nuclear plants at risk, and the list will continue to grow. You stay stuck on the USA with whatever hatred you have and keep sucking up to Russia. How’s Russia scrotum taste?

I love Watch Dogs Legion. I haven't played many games in this category but would like to know what is all out there.

WTF is the U.S. then, a damn pussy cat? All you keep doing is praise Russia for selfish political reasons. Instead of facing a crisis from a mad man, you blame others. Real fucking mature.

Actually, since that last patch it’s playable on ps4 now cause I’ve been playing it with no bug issues. Still too soon to tell if that lasts. The picture quality is top notch. Haven’t had any lag issues. But if you have ps5 then by all means it’s worth a try. Would suck to get a ps4 version and half way through it gets corrupted.
