      should stay out of gaming.

      And education, health care, sports, food production, food consumption, technology, energy…Is anyone noticing a trend? This is the real Touch of Midas.

    Is this what they mean with “think of the children”? How can we monetize them?

    Investors are the poison of everything in every sector ever. It’s never anything else but profit over insert everything else

      Some investment is necessary. However, the focus we have on investors in the US is indeed poison. Stock buybacks are definitely poison and do nothing but enrich billionaires.

      We need money out of politics and to solve wealth inequality - not to make everyone equal, but to make the rich actually pay their fair share and make sure we have social safety nets and living wages.

      There used to be some gems on there when it was much newer and I was younger. Nowadays? Pure godawful slop.

        There’s still some decent games, but you gotta really sift through shit. I only know because of my kids. I don’t have an issue with them playing. I don’t let them friend anyone (they don’t know in real life), chat is dead, and when they play dumb games, they eventually come to the “this is dumb” conclusion, and I treat it like a learning experience.
