i've never been into these games, so i didn't follow the pre release or anything or have any info on this game. i just randomly watched an IGN review of the new game, and to me it looked pretty cool. scrolled down and it's like 20k dislikes to 4k likes or some shit, all the comments are complaining. i noticed the cast of characters looks 'diverse', is this actually a bad game or are gamers just crying because not everyone is a white guy?

unfunnily guy

admin was also br*tish

man what a fucking show. it was incredible. i loved the art style, the story telling, the world its self was so fucking cool. i didn't see a TV show board on here so i figured i'd post here. anyone check it out? one of the best pieces of scifi i have ever seen. it's also genuinely terrifying, which for a cartoon, is impressive to me. i've never been scared by a cartoon before, but seeing these weird ass alien life forms that are completely unpredictable just gets me i guess

i just don't get how this shit works. last night i clicked on something on hexbear that took me to lemmy.blahaj or something, and one of the first banners i see on a community says "fuck tankies". what is that site, how is it related to this one? then there's lemmygrad. also one i find myself on from this site. but despite looking identical my hexbear account doesn't work on there so it's not part of hexbear?

my ass is stupid and confused.

what's good comrades. tl;dr i didn't learn to drive until i was 27. i'm 31 now. in those 4 years, i've had two cars i bought cheap outright with cash, so i have never financed a more expensive car. these were 800 bucks each.

i only got a credit card at the beginning of 2024, i was terrified of debt my whole life so i never even wanted to get one. but i figure, i need credit to exist in amerikkka so the time has come. my score is 650 on one site and 697 on another. so let's assume it's like 670 actually.

i've applied for two auto loans but was turned down due to 'limited credit' but i see teenagers who work at wendy's driving nicer/newer cars they were able to finance, and i'm not even trying to get anything like that. i'm only looking to get a loan of like 4-6k, to buy cheap reliable used car from like 2005-2013. i see lots of options. i'm trying to avoid the dealer financing tho due to the dude telling me they typically charge like 25% interest through dealership financing.

how exactly does this work? is my only choice to get ripped off with dealer financing? i can't join a credit union, i've tried- limited credit. i don't get at all how credit works. i don't even want this shit. but currently i drive a 1995 toyota avalon that's falling apart and it's not safe to drive so i gotta figure something out

what's good comrades? i'm just curious if anyone on here is into the same shit as me. i'd love to have some leftist friends who i can talk skating and politics with. i know aggressive skating is a niche thing these days, so the odds of finding anyone else on here doing it are slim, but doesn't hurt to try

i'm getting over a recent injury (tripped over a scooter kid, busted my chin open, bled all over the skatepark) and i'm dying to get back out there
