So far, all that's actually happened is Andrew has moved into a smaller house, Mandy *might* be in legal trouble but probably not, and I've heard a fecking endless stream of men saying how sad they are about all the lies a known liar told them.
That's it in actual outcomes.

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

So many doomers, and they’re often doomers who have large media platforms, will concoct these elaborate scenarios that essentially boil down to “if Trump announces that he’s now a King it’s over for American democracy!” and it’s so pathetic.

It reminds me, in a way, of ME: Andromeda. A very good game that was sundered by PR missteps and overweening playerbase expectations.
I think it's been so badly done by. Sadly didn't sell well enough that they're going to do another game but the caricature is fun if broad (as you say, I think the lack of total cynicism is a strength) & the combat & gameplay much tighter than the first game.

Well, to talk about something pleasurable for a change: Outer Worlds 2! I've been absolutely loving this game, it's scratching an itch I've had for a while. I've needed some good sci-fi CRPG in my life and it's giving satirical Mass Effect.

Seriously, don't flatter yourself. This is just the perfect cocktail of delusional and self-aggrandizing.
These companies are trying to crack down because they don't want to kill the algorithmic golden goose, and nobody wants to be called into court & asked "so why does your platform allow CSAM?"

And where did his suit come from? The answers may surprise.
