They know who plays their games and more importantly who buys their games.

Is this not a bit of a “chicken and egg” argument though? Adults have pretty much always been the ones buying games, but they haven’t always been making them for adults. Even if kids are less than a quarter of all gamers, they’re still a sizeable chunk of the audience. Doesn’t really make sense to just ignore them.

Crazy thought - instead of just putting trees near curbs, have dedicated green spaces in cities where there aren’t sidewalks or other important infrastructure near the trees.

Public fountain? I think you mean community bidet

These sentences:

Average weekly earnings went up from $1016 to $1236, a 21.6% increase. That’s come up short on the 23.4% inflation in that time period.

People can complain about how the economy isn’t working for regular people, but the last 5 years were actually a pretty good run for wage earners.

It wasn’t really a good run. Wages didn’t keep up with inflation. Even though wages are higher, the buying power with those wages is less.

Some of the new Krogers have full service bars inside them, so you can sip on a pint in Kroger

North Europe is a frozen wasteland where nothing grows for like a third of the year, being able to digest lactose in those months is hugely advantageous. I don’t think “winter” counts as an “extreme specific scenario”

Maybe I’m going to the wrong airports or something, but TSA agents are pretty friendly to me like 97% of the time. I had one incident where an agent confiscated a multitool off my keys and got snippy with me, and a few other times where security is busy and they’re more curt/loud, but I’ve never seen a TSA agent go on a power trip. Hell, one time my bag got randomly flagged for a check and as the guy was looking through, it he saw the books I had in there as my in-flight entertainment, and struck up a friendly conversation on book recommendations. All the while assuring me they didn’t actually find anything on the scan, it was just a random check (and implied that he thought the random checks were silly and ineffective).
