Belatro won all sorts of awards, including GDC game of the year. $10 for an award winning game is nothing. Probably the most addicting game I’d played in years, and I’m not even into that type of game.

I actually think you hit the nail on the head with persecution complex. He likely grew up experiencing antisemitism, I know I did and I’m younger than him. But he became incredibly privileged. Since being persecuted is core to his younger identity, he doubles down on the idea that he is persecuted. I see this frequently with people that are newly rich, they can’t accept their new privilege as a shift in their identity, so they double down on an old identity.

It’s the same issue with Dave Chappelle, who used to be more conscious of -isms, but is dishonest about any other bigotry but anti-black bigotry since he became ultra wealthy. He needs to focus on anti-blackness over all else because if he doesn’t he just becomes another privileged dude in a broken system (in his mind). It’s about protecting your self image of a victim after becoming one of the privileged.

Also Seinfeld is a groomer creep.

IIRC: He helped close down the poorest school in his city district instead of funding and fixing it. Championed broken windows policing that in part led to things like George Floyd and poor people I know getting massive fines for things like chipped paint on their house, leading to foreclosures and a debtors system with the city. Worked to kick out small businesses in favor of corporate chains. Tried to push poor people into neighboring districts and suburbs. Etc. Nothing he ever put his hands on helped people. I think it was very likely he was being paid under the table by business interests to do this stuff. If not, he is still a royal piece of shit.

When the revolution comes, he’s on the short list of people to punch in the face.

Don Samuels is a corrupt garbage human, it should never have been that close regardless of your view of our Israel policy.

Monitor mounting arms that connect to the back of the desk. I have 3 times as much room on my desk now. It’s amazing how much room monitor stands really take up. It’s not just the actual stand but really the surrounding area because you can’t really set any large objects in the vicinity. It really is a game changer to gain a lot of desk space.
