The WBC has been so wild because everyone is having fun & playing a game of fellowship and USA is watching Act of Valor & Black Hawk Down on repeat while reminiscing on killing Osama Bin Laden and it’s honestly just really sad that this is the best we can do culturally.

It’s weirding out everyone.

If you look at the accounts, it's very clear when the account stops posting normal stuff and starts spamming the crypto post. Some seem to have been compromised as little as a day or two ago. I did a journalism! By accident!

Lol I think I accidentally discovered a sprawling botnet of what appears to be a lot of large "resist" accounts that were compromised for the sake of, of course, some sort of crypto scam

that door stays locked pal. goes to the underdark. nothing there but crazy ass nympho goblins. wet pussy slappin sounds all day and all night, big bug barbecue & no one knows what a dollar means. complete waste of time. last time someone opened that door i couldn't use this root cellar for a year

Cyberpunk RED has a Discount CyberEye

It has fewer option slots but is extremely cheap

As a side effect, you, the GM, get to randomly say 'you get a pop up ad'

In your eye

Possibly while you're trying to shoot someone or hack something

A terminator hauling a generator on his back because his power supply broke, it's far too little power so he moves slowly, most of his time is spent having to refill it and steal gas for it, etc

45 degree fluctuations over just a few hours, this spiritually destroys a migraine-haver

Its like 60F and supposed to go down to about 15F in just a few hours sometime tomorrow, normal weather

The prequel to the sequel to the reboot of the cartoon adaptation of the sequel to the prequel of the live adaptation of the sequel to the sequel of the prequel of the comic book adaptation of the sequel of the prequel of the sequel's prequel of the film adaptation of the book Horking Prembus

No deus ex machina, no "ugh my fingers are twitching."

Show a completely fucked up terminator doing the best with what it has, and *winning*

At the end of the movie, when it finally kills its target, the whole audience is cheering it on.

You did it, buddy.

Go all in on making the terminator so ridiculously determined that you can't help but cheer it on.

Its kitchen knife hand gets ripped out of the duct tape and you're on the edge of your seat.

Oh no. Not the kitchen knife.

Scrappy underdog terminator that, despite being the villain, you are *rooting for*

You want to see it kill its target. You're cheering it on.

It's barely functioning, it looks like someone's kid went nuts in a home depot, and it is ridiculous.

But it still will not stop, ever, until its target is dead.

Go all in on this. The terminator manages to steal someone's wheelchair. Have it duct-tape a kitchen knife to one stump.

It painfully crawls its way around until it can rig a prosthetic leg out of a hockey stick or something. Duct-tapes itself together as best it can.

Sometimes it overheats, and has to reboot.

An interesting terminator movie:

The terminator arrives, is fucked up almost immediately. It's basically a torso with one twitching, glitchy arm.

Now it has to try to continue its mission regardless.

So Cyberpunk 2077 has a side quest where a guy's cyberdick is malfunctioning and killing him, and he *does* act like a cybertruck owner and keeps defending it.

This game came out 4 years ago. Long before elon fucked up twitter, or the cybertruck existed.

Where's the guy who is all "ok yeah. Sometimes my tesla dick implant overheats and then electrocutes me. But they are aware of this issue, no other dick company is as innovative." etc

Where are the shein implants, the incel influencer implants that are shein implants but rebranded for an audience of fractal fuckups.

Where is the guy with a "tactical" visual processing core that just puts a red dot in the center of his vision but he keeps bragging about it

Guy who spent his nest egg on the most patriotic self defense implant he could get.

Whenever he hears the national anthem of a long defunct rival nation, he collapses into a grand mal seizure and his hands are able to deliver a bit of a zap.

Guy whose artificial leg was *marketed* as being for hypermasculine men, the most manly artificial leg on the market.

It mines a defunct cryptocurrency so hard it randomly freezes up and he has to reboot it manually. It also contains what was once an expensive and illegal nft collection.

Guy who has a pair of artificial eyes, but they *started out* giving 5 second ads for penis enlargement each minute.

Now all they do is deliver ads, 24/7, in Swedish. At 0.25 speed.

You might see someone with an old and busted artificial arm, or obsolete artifical eyes that sometimes glitch into monochrome.

But you don't see all the obvious temu tesla scam crap that has to be floating around.

In cyberpunk fiction you tend to only see the cool cyber implants, not the goofy scam shit.

You see people with cool bionic eyes, not the poor chump bastard with a Tesla dick that randomly delivers powerful electric shocks to him if it gets wet

The nostalgia mines are empty.

A parent who is nostalgic for 28 Days Later can't even watch it on streaming anywhere.

Their kids will literally have no fucking idea what it is if a remake came out.

And then the remake of the sequel to the remake of the remake comes out, and their kids were watching weird shit online while that sequel of a remake of a remake was playing.

Or watched it exactly once, not over and over as one of the dozen movies available.

If the parent is under 30, odds are they watched a sequel of a remake of a remake, not the original that they remember being forced to watch with their parents whether they wanted to or not at the time.
