Oh hey, EA is taking an upcoming sequel, dumping a shit ton of money into it in short time, and trying to get it pushed out the doors with unrealistic sales goals?
I'm certain this has happened many other times but the first and only other example I know off the top of my head is Dead Space 3. "The last game barely sold like we wanted it to sell, so this time you're going to almost double the previous sales target in less time."
Fell asleep, woke up, suddenly there's only 30k left on the EU initiative.
Nope. None of the jobs I've worked ever offered it, and I never had the budget for it. All my medical costs have been covered out of pocket.
When I broke and dislocated my arm a few years ago, four months' worth of hospital visits drained my bank account, over $2,000 gone. It was also draining hundreds from my brother's account, and then the week before Christmas I got hit with a bill for over three thousand dollars to cover the rest of the services rendered, due Christmas eve.
The services that were rendered included having my arm eyeballed by a doctor a few times, two xrays, and that's it. Nothing for the pain ("Just mix ibuprofen and Tylenol"), nothing to rehabilitate the strength I lost in that arm, just some dick in a coat poking my arm and charging me hundreds for the opportunity.
Had I not gone to the hospital, I wouldn't have been left penniless. Combine that with my severe anxiety disorder and now I feel fight-or-flight fear responses any time I have to spend more than $100 on something.
Oh yeah, then a few months after that a friend of mine elsewhere in the country fell ill. He didn't think it was major enough to warrant hospital fees, especially since he was uninsured and made little money. About a week later his condition suddenly went critical, and the next evening his sister informed me that he was dead in the hospital. Leukemia. I'd still be talking to him if it weren't for the American wealthcare system.
A lot of the metros look copy and pasted; whole hallways, rooms, so it gets a little confusing.
Anti-woke go broke.
I get at minimum 10-20 scam calls a day. How I wish I were you.
Get a buncha pals together, it's a classic for bad movie nights!
Help me get citizenship and I'll get you another signature, plus the anal this fella doesn't do.
It's like Roko's Basilisk playing out in real time, except instead of building a malignant computer out of fear it's accelerating a fascist takeover.
What queer-friendly country would be willing to take in an impoverished disabled person with PTSD?
