I mean, yes, it would be? If I can solve world hunger by sacrificing my left arm to the elder gods or some shit, I’m still losing my left arm. It’s still a sacrifice.

The crippling depression that’s completely stopped me from functioning in any meaningful way. That’s definitely the big one.

Forrest Valkai. He’s a biologist who makes a mixture of educational content, videos debunking creationist claims (in an educational way rather than the “look at this fucking idiot” approach that much of atheist youtube seems to take), and just some silly fun in-between.

He doesn’t have the insanely high production value of other channels named here, but he’s the most wholesome person I’ve ever seen. His love for life and science radiates off of him and watching him passionately explain how cool something is genuinely makes me happy in such a depressing and pessimistic world.

Thanks. I’ll be checking these out later.

I’ve seen a surprising number of people on Lemmy with this depressing attitude. Not all humans deserve to die just because those in power don’t give a shit about the environment. And unfortunately, we’re not the only ones that will end up dying off. We’ll be taking a massive chunk of the planet with us.

…what does that have anything to do with closing accounts? Accounts do not degrade.

You make it sound like humans are the only ones affected by climate change. Sea turtles, elephants, polar bears, pandas, there’s a fuck load of animals we’re directly killing off. Everything is most certainly not fine, even if you don’t give a single shit about innocent human lives.

Huh, I had always assumed oranges got their name from the color, not the other way around…

Seriously depends on the game. Black Ops 2 for example, a game that came out over a decade ago, still costs $100 on steam (assuming you want the DLC). At best you’ll get it for $50 during sales. The fact that, even during a sale, a game with a completely dead playerbase costs as much as a modern title is absolutely nuts.

A lot of games are like this, unfortunately. Not everyone takes advantage of sales because many people are going to end up buying the game regardless.

This is so fucked up.

Immediately shared with all my friend groups.
