I think 75% is far too generous an estimate, tbh. Every policy I've acquired through the ACA-mandated marketplace has been garbage, right from the start. For-profit health care is evil, and the ACA just served to further entrench this evil in our lives. It did some marginal good, and I'm certainly not advocating for its repeal in favor of 'concepts of a plan'. But 75%? I can't get on board with that.

This is something I do, so I'll take a crack at it—though, bear in mind, it might be total bullshit.
It's a defense mechanism. Many popular things are—in my estimation—objectively terrible. Every time something utterly devoid of merit (and often actively detrimental to the public good) is generally agreed to be a popular sensation, the connection I feel to my fellow human beings takes a hit.
I want to believe in people—in society. But I'm clearly a judgmental sob. So maybe by avoiding the popular things, I'm trying not to further my own alienation.
I really appreciate this take. It's good-hearted and makes good sense. I'll try to remember it going forward, when cynicism overwhelms.
That's too bad. No autosave you can load from before it started? I love KC:D; it's one of very few story-based games that I was motivated to play through more than once. I had a quick look, but I couldn't find any mods that let you pause that section and come back to it later.
I really enjoyed Theresa's DLC, but it can be an unwelcome change of pace if you're not ready for it. There's certainly no shortage of people that have had this issue, but it looks like the only fix is to power through it or load an earlier save. You do get a nice Skalitz shield from Theresa when you finish it, at least.
Every single article about "gen x" this or "gen z" that is 100% bullshit. Stop reposting this garbage.
I think it's a RDR2 reference, but I couldn't be more specific.
People are saying it. Many great people.
