After Rockstar’s announcement of GTA 6 being priced at $79.99 USD for its standard edition. I predict that big game titles in 2027 are going to follow that price point, regardless whether they have less sales or not.

Evidence: $79.99 for games is going to be the new norm (with the exception of smaller titles / indie games. FIFA, 2K, COD, Mortal Kombat, etc will follow)

The next Gen of consoles (PS6 / Xbox Helix) will be the last to support physical discs. After that, discs will just end up being collectors items for older existing games.

If we follow 7 year cycle, date: 2035 will be the year where there will be no more discs for consoles.

Well fuck me for not wanting to pay $1000 for a 4cm by 4cm tattoo. And no tattoos aren’t always on your body forever, you know some good looking tattoos you see on Instagram? Yeah well some of those tattoos fade by 5 years, and artists are being sly by not showcasing how they are healed, because they’re basically scamming you for a design that you can look at for a short while.

MAJOR EDIT BELOW

So I realise that people have definitely took this post the wrong way. I don’t have an issue with pricing. I have an issue with artists who charge ridiculous amounts for super small tattoos and artists/apprentices with barely any experience quoting the same amount as experienced artists.

I am willing to spend more on experienced artists, and of course bigger pieces.

Made 2 posts after he spilled matcha, zero remorse, in fact mocks that he did it

I had my first proper phone around 12 years old. (I’m 24 now) In primary & secondary school, school life was shit from being bullied. My parents were busy working, the only thing that keeping me alive was my phone. It gave me solace by having an outlet to listen to music and watching YouTube videos. I would have killed myself if I didn’t have a way to keep me sane from the bullying.

Now in current day, if you have kids that need a break away from real life and they don’t have that (from bullying etc), what do you think is going to happen?

Do I think social media is dangerous for kids & teens (like Snapchat & discord), YES. But banning things outright never works, and we’re going to have a new set of social problems by doing so.

If anything social media should be regulated. Social media companies have the capacity to build safer version of their sites for children to use, that should be the way to go.

This also goes to say that even if there IS an alternative to social media, schools should not be banning usage of phones during school hours (or recess etc), to which schools are also doing.

Edit: You can downvote my post and comments as much as you want, I WILL STILL DIE ON THIS HILL

Banning phones / social media is banning an alternative for bullied kids to have an outlet.

If society wants to walk towards the line where we end up with more bullied kids offing themselves because then by all means go ahead.

It doesn’t mean I agree with this shit considering I was a bullied kid who relied on his phone to keep myself alive.

Nothing against Saudi Arabia, but I just find it personally unfair that you’ve basically had a World Cup in 2022 in Qatar which is in the Middle East, only to again host a World Cup in the Middle East after 2 WC’s. (2026, 2030)

If anything I think the 2034 World Cup should be in Australia + New Zealand. Historically Australia and New Zealand have never hosted a FIFA World Cup (men’s to be specific in case I get some pedantic comment)

If FIFA truly wants to stick with Asia in 2034, there are South east Asian countries to look at. Perhaps a joint host of Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia. (to which these countries have bid) Just my 2 cents.

The word ‘better’ is ambiguous because it can mean a myriad of things, but getting a tattoo done after you turn 25 is safer, because you are more likely to make an informed decision about putting something on your body forever.

There are plenty of people who get tattoos when they are really young like 18, and end up covering them or regretting them years down the road.

I’m not saying you can’t get a tattoo at 18, you can and it’s your right to do so, but I genuinely think that when you’re in your mid 20’s you’re likely to make a better decision.

Your prefrontal cortex is not fully developed until age 25 too. You change a lot between 18 to 25. Your style, taste, etc.

If you got tattoos below 25 and don’t regret it, that’s cool. But my view is that getting it when you’re older is a much more mature decision.

This is coming from someone who almost blew $2k on a design at 18 years old and now realise years later that I would have 100% regretted doing so.

I wondered if we’ll ever seen a president or a prime minister of a country that’s autistic. Will it ever happen one day?

What are your thoughts on this?

Somewhere, a star misaligned
love no longer in his heart

jealousy;
tension coiling like a rattlesnake

like springs snapping from his bed
“You’re too heavy” she said

She ignited a flame
meant to be suppressed

His welcoming arms for hatred
Morality at his disposal

Caesura

She listens to tales of dragonfly
with such enthusiasm
she stirred up envy

“You are lazy”
fairytale to smithereens
the dragonfly smirks
a conjuring birth of crocodile

Caesura

No longer to be loved
for he lost control
of the piece of sanity he held on

Now it is only propaganda
No longer, The Fool

Yes I know its his body, but compared to a lot of his peers in the metal scene, I think he might be one of the rare metal vocalists who doesn’t have a neck/throat/hand tattoos?

I wonder if he has ever talked about it. Whether on a podcast etc

Edit: I should have realised he had the rev on his hand, am still curious about neck & throat tattoos.

I wanna buy Black flag Resync but I don’t think I can pay full price at the moment, do you guys think it would go on sale?

Appreciate all insight, thank you!

I do plan on doing a blackwork tattoo sleeve but I also don’t want to rush it. Is it fine to do it across 3-4 years?
