    Don’t get me wrong, I’m not claiming this isn’t insider manipulation, or that it should be legal.

    What I’m saying is people have a personal responsibility to be informed about the risks associated with cryptocurrency.

    At this point, if you lose money on a pump-n-dumps, that’s all on you.

    The same could not be said five years ago, when influencer coins were unheard of.

    I understand that, but I seriously doubt these people are losing essential money. If you can afford to buy Hawk Tuah coins for the ‘community aspect’ then they probably aren’t at risk of losing their life saving.

    There’s a big gap between what’s happening here and telescammers robbing grannies for example.





  • I’m tempted to say either The Witcher 3, Grand Theft Auto V, or Metal Gear Solid 5 (if you can look past the fact it’s unfinished).

    All three are exceptionally polished, have huge, highly detailed world’s to explore, cinematic moments with blockbuster action scenes, smooth and balanced gameplay, are suitable for gaming noobs and veterans, and has moments to goof off and dick around.

    It’s hard not to be biased, though I’ll state I don’t personally like GTAV, I think it’s perhaps too ordinary for my tastes and feels too restrictive in its mission structure.








  • I’m gonna go ahead and say there’s a twist. After a few mildly scary haunted houses you enter one, look around, everything seems normal, so you go to walk back to the factory, but wait, wasn’t the front door right there?

    You start start looking around, disoriented, and notice the factory outside is dark, and it has trees inside?

    Soon enough you start backtracking through rooms you were just in and notice things have changed, but at least the door is back and it’s open, so you leave, condemn the house and move onto the next one.

    Next house rolls up, but its the same house. You try to click the condemn button but it’s not working.

    You look around the factory floor for someone to report this to, but the door which leads back to the rest of the facility has gone, and the house just sits there.

    You try clicking on the approve button just to see what happens, and the house rolls away, and the next house, the same house, is back, door open, waiting for you.



  • You’re not alone in not living up to your principles, virtually nobody can.

    I once tried to vet all the products I was buying to make sure I wasn’t contributing to slave labour, or deforestation, or animal exploitation, and it was exhausting.

    It was good to identify brands which were absolute villains, and I still avoid them like the plague, but the amount of willpower it takes to travel to multiple stores and pick only the lesser of evils is something I’m not capable of right now.

    I make gradual improvements, which is sustainable.

    I am dead-set on repairing what I can, and hate spending money on new things.
