    The great thing about Northernlion is that he's just the most average, normie, default human with one exception: he viscerally remembers every single event that has ever happened to him and can recite every detail about how he felt with arbitrarily fine detail.

      I have 200 hours (don't ask) and I backseated once, but then immediately was like, it's not his fault, he didn't get jokers that kept his run going, and IMMEDIATELY that night had a run that I got ZERO chip or mult jokers. Twitch chatters suck imo and Karma is a B

      Udon vs Ramen is an apples and oranges situation, so I won’t debase the Udon enjoyers, but I’d take Ramen if given the choice. The broth flavor pairs very well with the style of noodles, and the toppings of a good Ramen offer lots of variety.

      Which would make it the only econ joker you would EVER need and would be nerfed the next update.
      You can get a max of 6 hands with vouchers without being on Blue deck, so that's a chance at $24 without vouchers and Black Deck and a max $56 using them and Blue Deck. Your fault if you can't make it work, not the games, plus, it's not meant for the long haul.

    49:22 I’d rather my government invest in local production, industry, and social services over what they do now which is just US-led wars in order to maintain their control over the planets’ resources.
    The reason the US, for example, is able to run a huge debt is because of the dollar is the world’s reserve currency. They are the only country able to print their own money and not have it lead to massive inflation because there’s a constant, manufactured need for US dollars all the time in order to buy needed commodities like energy and food.
    That’s changing though as the global majority rises up and are dedollarizing and forming new economic and political alliances like BRICS+, SCO, EAEU, etc.
    US-led imperialism is on the decline which is good for all of humanity. 🫡
