Was listening to a Trumper saying how it was okay for Trump to go into the women's changing room because he's a professional, in contrast to trans folk. Then it struck me, these people are cucked. Russia is bigger and badder, so of course they expect Ukraine to just take it, because being cucked is literally their world view.

Or the game could be about a newly laid off worker that has to trick unconscious LLM bots to give them the things they need to survive.

I remember back when Obama won a second time there was a question how the GOP was going to handle the changing demographics. I think we have our answer.
