Like how the 00s and 10s killed print and publishing, I think 20s and 30s will kill single player triple A games. Gamers have very low set of standards of gacha and live service games, but an extraordinary high bar for single player triple A games.

Translation: When people hear "Jim Crow" their mind typically goes to segregation but it's more precise to point out that Jim Crow was primarily about re-establishing, state one-party rule.
The GOP really since Obama won in 2008 has been on that trajectory and SCOTUS be like...

If Cowboys don't come back tonight and Commanders lose tomorrow, the NFC East would be 1st division since the merger with every team playing in back to back weeks and none of them winning

Someone could probably write a book (if they haven’t already) about the cycle of technology productizing the removal of friction in the name of convenience only for us to discover that the friction was a load-bearing part of the social compact.
Someone told me he thinks dating apps are bad because they let you access connection without having any motion in your life. Normally meeting people requires going out into the world, entering new scenes and navigating unfamiliar situations. You have to be living a life that brings you into contact with other people. Dating apps let you order connection without doing any of that work

The southeastern part of Loudoun looks like it's going to be a nuclear bomb for Republicans this year based on our current EV model. Basically, the inverse of 2024.
