just learned about farming simulator

I mean, I already knew about it, but I just learned about it

Did you know that the target audience for Farming Simulator is actual real-world farmers? Because I didn’t. I just assumed that farmers probably don’t want to go home from a day of farming to do some (presumably highly inaccurate) virtual farming?

Like, imagine if the target audience for Power Washing Simulator was actual professional power washers.

Farming Sim gets sponsored by companies and shit to put ads in their games. But since the game is for farmers, all of the ads target farmers. Advertising products that, realistically, only farmers would be interested in. Aka John Deere tractors and shit.

There’s a fucking farming sim esports league. Where do they play? Agriculture conventions. not gaming conventions. agriculture conventions.

Cursed cats!

I see the original post going around every so often and it saddens me a little that it's never accompanied by this thread explaining why it's completely understandable how a child would arrive at these spellings in accordance with english phonetics

I agree with you broadly, but it isn't as clear cut as that. 1, Hezbollah in Lebanon 'are engaged in armed resistance to defend the Palestinian people from genocide' and 2, the Houthis are bombing civilian shipping 'to defend the Palestinian people' by disrupting global trade of all kinds.

After Houthi attacks in the Red Sea, fears of a wider Middle East conflict grow

The Iran-backed rebel group has attacked multiple ships in the Red Sea throughout December. The Houthis control large swaths of Yemen's terr

Who are the Houthis and how did the US and UK strikes on Yemen come about?

The US and UK have launched strikes on Houthi positions in Yemen’s west

the UK and US are bombing the Houthis in Yemen: the only allies who are actively engaged in armed resistance to defend the Palestinian people from genocide

this isn't the first genocide that the UK has been complicit in. from arming the Indonesian dictator Suharto while he killed up to 3 million suspected socialists, to killing just as many in the Bengal famine, Britain has a long history of participating in genocide

the capitalist economic system is at the root of this, as it pits countries into competition with each other, just as it makes workers compete for jobs and businesses compete for profits. some countries have to lose so that others can win, and the western powers will ensure their dominance with the blood of ordinary people. protest against the genocide in Palestine, do whatever you can, but don't ever think that this is an isolated conflict. it's enabled by capitalism and imperialism

Qanon did not "steal support" from flat earth communities. Many flat earthers just got into Qanon. You can be both into flat earth and into Qanon.

What actually happened was Qanon hit the conspiracy world like an atom bomb, and sucked up all the air in the room. A lot of flat earth video creators took a hit because everyone was talking about Qanon. But the amount of flat earthers did not reduce because of Qanon.

The whole point of Qanon was that it is highly syncretic. It also basically doesn't exist anymore as a coherent movement. It is a shadow of it's former self.
