How do you see the TV through all that underground water, though?

e: actually, the real question is why am I associating once in a lifetime with (southern culture on skids) camel walk, because apparently I do and it's at least a little odd

Ehh, furries are usually a pretty distinct group from zoophiles, from what I've noticed. There's overlap, sure, but they're definitely not one and the same or drawing even close to 1:1 from the same subgroups.

Being down with banging Lion-o is a fair distance from being down with banging a lion (well, more realistically something like a dog or horse or whatever).

I think gravekeeper has been decently improved on the grind front by eventual DLCs, for what it's worth? Was some automation additions or somethin' like that. Watching a bit of a playthrough didn't look that bad...

The biggest thing I take away from that is this:

Quote

The group’s bankruptcy rate — 18 percent — was nearly twice as high as that of the American public

That means that 10% of the population as a whole has declared bankruptcy?  That's insane.

I don't know if you've noticed the US population has occasional problems with debt, but, uh. It does!

Hard to find a quick and easy number on how much of the US population has bankrupted, though. Yearly rates are easy, but portion of the total population, not so much. Overlap and repeats make it hard to translate one into the other.

e: Though trump literally did/does have financial troubles, for what it's worth. It's just that daddy's money means that doesn't have the same sort of impact it does for most of the country.

Not as part of the same quote, no, at least that I'm aware.

Mostly because it's impossible to butcher up quotations like that with good intentions, I think. It's either malice or wild incompetence, with not much space for a third option

My WTF is the public acceptance of the elimination of physical media. Yeah it's convenient... until the provider of the data you want just refuses to give it to you

At which point you just yar-har-fiddly-dee, from what I see, if you actually care about it. There's been precious few points to date where "provider wanting to refuse to give it to you" and "provider being able to refuse to give it to you" actually overlap

Though having some experience these days working with physical media in a public setting... probably half the secret to that acceptance is that no one's ever really gave much of a shit about what happens to most of the stuff stored on physical media. What's actually gave a damn about gets stored on more durable junk and occasionally replaced/transferred to something in better condition, the rest of it (which is the vast majority of it) varyingly literally rots.

In other words, they kickin' it old school. I remember that general aesthetic of softcore porn demo mess from back in DOS/Win 95 days, ha.
