I guess Das Boot would technically be clean kriegsmarine, but idk if thats even a term that gets used, thats how accepted that sort of attitude is.

Not sure how many guitar nerds are on here but man, I got a new guitar with both a single coil and a humbucker, partially cause it was on a ridiculous sale but also cause I was interested in the humbucker, but the single coil has seriously got me falling in love, just absurdly spicy.

I was thinking of it as a bonus extra option but now Im looking at the humbucker like the nice extra option to the single coil.

Whats that saying, never make a bet you can't win?

Either this guy gets proven wrong and proven as a ghoul, or he just gets himself and the whole world proven as ghoulish.

Does he just genuinely believe that the masses are simply ignorant hogs, and I dont mean as a general insulting attitude since thats self-evident, I mean literally specifically to this, does he genuinely think that theres a lack of objective knowledge here that is driving hostility?

Probably, though the guy doesnt care about mods in the slightest beyond bugfixes(which Starfield doesnt need), I think he was just so disappointed in the fundamental everything about Starfield that he doesnt think any DLCs will have a significant impact on the game experience.

Or he'll just do individual videos about the DLCs, easy money.

Edit: Just hit the part of the video where he near verbatim says the second part lol, cant blame him.

Also he does care about mods but just doesnt include them in retrospectives, to clarify, since they are not an actual Bethesda provided part of the experience, but he does have a significant section about how both Bethesda and Bethesda-game influencers are treating modders like a herd of cattle that will always be there to provide mods to make the games actually good no matter what.

Disregarding the debate over if a section or piece of information is absolutely necessary for the pure function of the video, this is actually still really well balanced and paced between the chronological progression of content, overarching systems and designs, individual factions and worlds, development critique, and side anechdotes.

However long the video absolutely needs to be, this is very watchable, I am not eating my words.

Literally just bragging about being a constant source of justifiable hostility and suspicion against civilians.

Every day I wake up and it drives me insane that there's no jazz fusion that sounds like Miles Davis' jazz fusion stuff, its like the universe colluded to make sure no one involved would continue it on after Miles retired.

John Mclaughlin has like 3 completely separate unreal guitar sounds on the Miles records from that time, and then he goes off and never sounds like any of them ever again seemingly. Of the two main live guitarists he has during this time, one just basically disappears completely afterwards and the other goes off and becomes a songwriter/producer and produces Madonnas first album?

Its like a cosmic prank on me personally, I almost hate all the standard types of jazz fusion and then theres this pristine island in the middle of it that is so good and so varied and then theres like one or two albums from other artists that only sort of sound similar.

For as much deserved shit that true crime gets, I feel like its still far less damaging than the endless fucking reality shows of cops or like border agents humiliating people.

True crime of course relies on cop sources, but for the most part its run by individual morons, these TV shows are obviously directly made in collaboration with the pigs and only ever show guilty people or the cleanest interactions possible between cops and random people. True crime also does like the absolute worst most fucked up cases, that can poison your brain too but its not like the reality shows that are literally premised on showing reality through the eyes of the cops.

Alright well be fucking happy about it then, I hate this Churchill ass "ooooh we're the worst country ever, except for all the rest" type shit, it's miserable.

Tbh I hate British self deprecation, cause it seems to always end up paired with trying to deprecate everywhere else even more. Also seems to prevent them from actually defending British stuff that they wanna defend through any means other than just going for the lowest blows or bigoted shit.

As overblown as the meme might be, theres a reason people joke about "Well at least we've gawt healfcare/don't get shot in our bloody schools mate innit"

Is this supposed to be british food good or british food bad, I can't tell.

Cause bacon sandwich is obvious, but fish and chips is just fried protein so that is good in the hivemind, toad in a hole sounds gross so thats obvious, but shepherds pie is just literally good, and beef pie I guess you could find gross if you really wanted to, and then mac and cheese is american right?
