Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

i work in healthcare and even now, this close to the deadline theyre just praying the medicare cuts magically won't happen and they won't have to close shop. this is going to destroy thousands of businesses and make huge waves on the economy and all jobs

our entire economy is being propped up by a tech bubble that was way too big and ready to pop 6 months ago, and everyone is going to be informed this month that their paychecks got snipped. there is going to be a disaster very soon lol

it's open enrollment time and everyone is reporting that their rates are going up 30~50%, the government is directly reaching into your wallet and making your care worse. maybe this will help people realize that we can't sit in this until midterms

no switch 2 games should be eligible for GOTY since they cost 500 dollars

its going to be really funny when argentina still collapses in a couple months, none of that money will go to the right places

🎃 Bob 🎃 @insanelybuff.bsky.social · 11h

it sucks, the kicker is that games that had unlocked FPS and looked weird for it now benefit from the switch 2 upgrade for free lol

thinking about when elden ring added an RTX mode for series X/PS5 and it hit single digit frame rates and they just pushed that out and never updated it lol. like here you go, this doesn't work at all, enjoy!

every game has performance and fidelity modes and except in cases where RTX radically changes the lighting, i can never tell the difference. it always feel like I'm just telling the game to run like shit for no benefit

yeah everyone with interest and money to spare already grabbed it. obviously there will be a spike for the holidays but it'll shoot back down

the switch 2 is sitting on shelves now and that's the *budget* option. yes, 500 dollars for a 4k portable system is cheap. the enthusiasts got it and everyone else is waiting for the economy to turn. what the fuck is a ps6 gonna do!!

the ps6 stuff was funny a year ago because like, what do you mean? the ps5 barely has 2 games, what would a ps6 do? but now we're staring at an imminent global economic collapse and theyre gonna try to sell a $999 console

IGN @ign.com · 16h

Sony tech wizard Mark Cerny has teased new graphics features he's excited to bring to "a future console in a few years time," sparking a wave of PS6 release date speculation in the process. https://bit.ly/3KFH3CQ

people smoothly transitioning from "it was definitely a shock collar, based on nothing" to "well it's animal abuse to train your dog at all" these people are fucking desperate for anything, they're tired of their fave creators being pedos while the opps are normal guys

i understand the instinct to assume that strictly training a dog to lay in one spot for hours can seem abusive if you've never owned a dog. if you do own a dog you know that place training is needed or they just wander around destroying anything they can chew until they hurt themselves

the peak of gaming isn't the moment in super metroid where you make it back to your ship with an arsenal of new tools and triumphant music plays, or when your party bands together and defeats evil once and for all, it's when a live service game uses a real life holiday to sell us slop

for a henchman, there’s nothing better after a long day of guarding a small chest than standing with your back to a field of waving grass just tall enough to hide a crouching human being
