  • You can repeat “smoke and mirrors” as many times as you want. Doesn’t change that the parties vote VERY differently. Doesn’t change that one party got me affordable healthcare when I was young when the other one basically told me to go fuck myself. Doesn’t change that one illegally attempted to overturn an election and the other didn’t. Doesn’t change that one stripped women of a federally protected human right while the other didn’t.

    There are so many examples of the parties not being the same that there’s no other way to look at your opinion than as ignorant to the extreme.





  • The Mandalorian

    Noped out after season 1. They revealed his face during a filler episode, during a boring scene, instead of waiting an episode or two longer for the real gut punch reveal at the end of the last episode.

    It was stupid. It killed what would have been one of the best face reveals in cinema history. I had no patience for the show after that. Almost didn’t bother finishing the rest of the season. I don’t really care what their reasons were. Contractual. Whatever. Don’t care.






  • Speedrunners

    It’s on sale for $3 right now. Awesome 4 player competitive racing game without split screen so everyone gets maximized view. Way different than Mario Kart so it won’t be a repetitive experience for them. This is the Steam-based couch coop that’s lasted longest in my friends group.

    Tricky Towers

    Tetris game, but the catch is you build upwards to a finish line and physics play a role, so the tower can lean and collapse.

    TowerFall Ascension

    Competitive platformer shooter. No split screen. One large screen for everyone. My favorite aspect is all the options you can change to switch up the gameplay. Coop mode and PvP mode.

    Mount Your Friends

    A personal favorite of mine. Not necessarily for kids, even though I don’t think it’s anything beyond maybe PG-13. It’s hilarious. It can be pretty competitive. You can choose to build upwards or outwards. I think outwards is more fun. You can watch gameplay videos and determine if it’s appropriate for the kids in question.

    Others have pointed out games like A Way Out, the Trine series, and Split Fiction. Those are all great. But they’re longer, story-based puzzle games that take more time than you may have for them to finish. Trine allows 3 players, but the others only allow 2.
