I don’t think it was always restricted to manicured courses. I’m reading that the dutch used to play a similar game in spring, summer, fall, and even in the winter playing on ice

I don’t think we’re responsible for anywhere near enough compassion to be fatigued by it

Concepts of ownership aren’t going to stop you from walking into someone else’s house currently

What fantasy world can you think of where most people bother to learn how magic works?

But it’s also goofy in Skyrim when they keep much better gear in chests while attacking you with fur armor on

I think communities can just take care of each other. Bakers make bread, plumbers lay pipe, gardeners sow plants and those that love each other make sure they’re taken care of. You wouldn’t be able to be an asshole that just takes from the world around you because nobody would have a reason to make sure your water is running. Your time is compensated by a social contract

Capitalism doesn’t free us from any of that, community does. It’s standing on the shoulders of giants and advancing our understanding of the world that saves infants and puts food on tables. Not people who own the tools skimming off the top from the people that do the work

Unfortunately it really isn’t that profound. It exists everywhere and thinking you’re immune to being ruled by it is usually the first step in it proliferating

I volunteer as tribute

And then what will they campaign on next time! They all secure their jobs by not doing them

That’s when the CIA comes knocking

The revolution will not be brought to you by xerox without commercial interruption, the revolution will not go better with coke, the revolution will not fight germs that may cause bad breath, the revolution will put you in the driver’s seat

I do wish we had more of these but they were made by machinegames who just put out the new Indiana Jones game which has been favourably received. I’ve been meaning to check it out

It’s bad in the richest bluest states too. Unless you’re living in the suburbs going to a district that serves upper class families, the education system in the US will invariably fail you in one way or another

It exists to cover bank runs and it is your money. There is nothing wrong with wanting your money in any given moment. That’s just my take though, I’m not a lawyer.

I think it’d basically defeat its preventative purpose though if a story got out that people weren’t covered, even in an engineered bank run. What if you’re not in on the plot? What if it happens tomorrow at your bank? Are you just fucked too? Better withdraw all your money to be safe

I guess if he decided to just button up inside you could still just impound it lol

You’d be pressed to find the ammo, if it even still exists for these vehicles. Plus, how would you even take it from him?

What they did shouldn’t really be relevant when talking about the inhumane treatment of prisoners

Those already exist
