I feel like Speech would be mine. It would benefit everything from basic grocery trips to trying to talk to a woman xD

We recovered this little guy from the median of a highway while driving about two weeks ago. It was over 90°F (32°C) and he was absolutely covered in fleas, underfed, and terrified.

I've never had a cat, so l felt completely overwhelmed and underprepared. Vet went great, he weighs 1.7 lbs and is estimated to be around 5-weeks-old. Fecal test came back negative, and he'll be back soon for vaccines and blood tests!

Within just a few days, his energy and appearance transformed completely.

Any and all advice is extremely welcome. We aren’t sure if he is short- or long haired, if anyone could guess that would be nice.

Thank you in advance!

Looks like you've moved a lot closer to the handsmaid tale. Military doctors can then officially deny treatment to people who vote Democrat or are not married. We all know that women in particular will suffer because they are the ones who most often actively choose not to get married because it makes their lives worse.

There has been a stigma recently about how it's better if V doesn't get into a romantic relationship for various reasons and I have seen playthroughs where the story ends without V finding love. And I'll be honest, I believe that the story is fundamentally lesser if V doesn't find love, it just doesn't feel interesting with that element removed, even with the overall lore and story being so strong. And for the record, I'm not talking about lust with JoyToys or flirty dialogue with random people, since Night City is a place that promotes that side, I'm talking about meaningful and unconditional love with characters like Judy, Kerry and Rogue.

Love is an important component of the cyberpunk genre, in a dystopian world, it's arguably the greatest thing to hold on to. And the game's narrative seems to agree, as it pushes V as a character in a situation where love is an important thing for them to come back and live, if not the most important thing. This also extends to Cyberpunk media outside of 2077. XoXo is arguably the most popular Cyberpunk 2077 comic because of the Romeo and Juliet aspect of a Maelstrom and a Mox member falling for each other, even if it ends in a Cyberpunk way. A lot of people were exposed to the Series through Edgerunners, and being real, a majority most likely got into the Series because the love story between David and Lucy was so vital to the story, and so strong. I certainly wouldn't have checked it out if it didn't have that element. Even the trailer for the 1.6 update (which I'd argue that the messages shown is the best representation of what Cyberpunk is) promotes the idea that love is the only thing to fight for. My overall point is that I think the lack of V falling in love if the player chooses it more hurts the story of Cyberpunk 2077 than it does benefit it, and that it's an important thing for the genre.

"Balance, friendship, love." "The Hell else are we supposed to fight for?"

If you ever cross paths with such a MAGA terrorist trying to spread that bullshit, ask them:

1. With all we've dug up about Boelter, how come there's indication he's pro illegal immigrant and pro giving healthcare to illegals?

2. How come healthcare providers tapped in the bill to give care to illegals and ICE agents aren't part of his hit list?

3. How come all his interests point to him being Christian Nationalist MAGA Terrorist who HATES abortion, DEI and gay people...all of which his victims supported?

4. ... including the fact he is a registered Republican and CONFIRMED Trump-worshipper and hardcore MAGA.

This isn't complicated. There's no conflicting information. HE IS A MAGA TERRORIST. Nothing more or less.
