I play megagames! Large scale roleplaying/board game events. Maybe you would enjoy board games, role playing, war games, LARP, etc. Like many people, got into the hobby from one particular YouTube video that blew up: https://youtu.be/hN71v9H_gg8

GDP go up

This is a real caption by The Guardian

Still up

Oh man, I knew I couldn’t be the only one!

What a stupid rule

You think European car brands aren’t subsidized?

And this has nothing to do with struggling European car brands? https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/eu-relent-combustion-engines-ban-after-auto-industry-pressure-2025-12-16/

The threat is your disinterest in battery, charging and EV technology?

Take that, orcs

Yes, but there’s a lot more that should be done. We can’t always provide climate friendly alternatives that are better

Who did? You’re just being an ass right now

You’re just wrong. First of all, I am making a lot of personal sacrifices. You can’t lob the hypocrite accusation at me, it’s laughable.

But more importantly, this isn’t about individual choices but overcoming resistance to collective action. We should all move to a plant based diet, we should all stop flying for vacation, we should all pay way more taxes to reduce climate damage, but people aren’t ready to accept that yet. They’ll say climate change is bad and should be stopped, but the minute a politician proposes anything meaningful, they’ll be out of a job.

And when you point out it’s going to be costly and people aren’t ready for that yet, some douchebag on the internet calls you a hypocrite

I’m convinced it’s “when, not if” given our collective inaction

That’s pretty pedantic. If AMOC stops supplying heat, of course Western Europe will get colder. We don’t know exactly by how much or what other effects are in play by then, but it stands to reason Western Europe will get much colder than if they still had AMOC

What the fuck

I am willing to give all of that up, but you’re literally that “yet you participate in society” meme. This isn’t about me

What are you getting at?
