Anything any technology has to offer, they pervert into a way to extort more of the little we have left. They don't care about anything and when they do care, they hate. They're jealous and resentful of the people that DO make and know and create. So I don't hate technology at all. I hate them.

lmao I’m the opposite, unless I’m actively watching a game I really do not want screens
These are all extremely fair points
(Except no game being on— obvs this makes it ineligible for game watching, but to me the whole deal of atlas is very far from somewhere I’d even think to go to watch a game)
Switchyard brewing used to be a great place to watch games but a) turns out the owners sucked and then b) they closed

Proud to be a Hoosier for the very first time in my life???

every few years it's revealed that the NYT was sitting on information about some horrific thing that public knowledge of would have changed the country's course and for some reason a ton of people still give them money. you can play those games on other sites
In 2006 a high school English teacher asked students to write to a famous author & ask for advice.
