  • More context needed. Sometimes my kids are savages, so yelling does occur on occasion. They’re usually pretty great, though.

    Edit: yikes, people took my comment way too seriously. I don’t literally think my kids are savages, jfc. No shit, you shouldn’t yell at your kids. I typically don’t. But, I am not perfect, and neither is literally every single parent. We’re humans and there are days where we have shorter breaking points and our feelings get the best of us, especially when your kids are being super energetic, chaotic, and not listening to anyone. The important thing isn’t NOT yelling 100% of the time, it’s apologizing and explaining what happened to them afterwards when it does get the better of you.


  • I really tried to enjoy RDR2. It’s got some great qualities, and the acting, writing, and cutscenes are phenomenal. But… The gameplay… I’m all for slowburn walking simulator type games (e.g. I loved Detroit Become Human, among others).

    But with RDR2, the world is so massive and yet there was no sense of excitement when finding stuff. You get just about all your upgrades fairly early in the game. There’s no sense of character gameplay progression. And after just a few hours of traveling around, it felt like I quickly had seen all the random event variations on the roads/trails (e.g. stop bandits hijacking a wagon, robberies, etc). I don’t know, it just felt like a hyper realistic GTA5: Western, but without all the plethora of goofy shenanigans that game has.






  • Not to defend the antagonistic guy above, but you’re either extremely unlucky or not being fully truthful. I’ve had nothing but Samsung flagships for over a decade and have had literally zero issues besides minor annoyances, especially with the Note line the last 5-6 years. iPhones aren’t built poorly, so I won’t rag on them. But to use your purely anecdotal evidence to declare Apple as offering a superior quality phone to all Android vendors, it feels dishonest as fuck.
