This isn’t exactly new or unusual. Look how suddenly everyone acted like John McCain wasn’t a treasonous shitbag when he died

Stupid autocorrect, I fixed it, thank you
The future is Iron Man?
I know, my jokes are only funny periodically
I noticed this with coffee a while back. Was putting several ~~tablespoons~~ teaspoons of sugar in to make it palatable but got distracted one day and only put in two, it was sweet and it was much better tasting
As long as there’s a way to block specific ones/all of them I’d rather have the option to see them
I know the movie isn’t for everyone but I really enjoyed it. I thought it really captured the whirlwind feel of the era with the grand visuals and kickass soundtrack. The story made sense and was about as good as anyone could have done with a movie and not a 1:1 episodic retelling. Was it perfect? No, but it was damn good and fun
Marriage could mean losing life-saving benefits for people with disabilities. So they’re protesting.
The reality is even worse than the article makes it out to be. Get married while both are disabled and they will cut both your benefits, pay and medical, they will try to trick you into saying you are married or force common law marriage on you at every turn. It makes getting food stamps harder, it cuts the amount of care giving each person can get even if they have separate needs, and god forbid you need a new (to you) vehicle or place to live because you can’t save up enough to make that happen. It’s a nightmare where one clerk at a doctors office can put down spouse and ruin their lives and lead to one or both dying.
If it’s an unknown studio or something I’m dubious about I like to check spoiler free reviews after the launch just to see if everyone hates it/it’s broken or not and then I’ll give it a try. Other than that I still try to avoid most media about it. Reviews, trailers and forums give so much info, spoilers and wish lists presented as fact that it can lead to let down I wouldn’t have had otherwise
I’ve also tried to let go of the idea of what I want the game to be and just let it be what it is, which for me has made them much more enjoyable
For sure movies too. Trailers have ruined more movies than I can count. Going in blind or having only seen the first trailer really made the entire experience much more enjoyable for me
One thing I’ve found that helps is not watching trailers and reading articles/threads. I’ll watch a single trailer, usually the first one and then ignore everything else. Now I get to discover everything on my own and don’t have a ton of preconceived notions and opinions already in my brain when I first boot it up.
It’s made my gaming experience a hell of a lot more enjoyable again

I was more referring to his actions while he was a PoW and other various things than his tenure as a politician but that didnt help much either
