Activision Is Laughing at Us
Call of Duty is one of the most popular video game franchises in the world, and Activision is making a killing off of microtransactions. The company is constantly releasing new bundles and skins, and they know that people will buy them, even if they are overpriced.
This is a predatory business model that takes advantage of gamers' willingness to spend money on in-game items. Activision is laughing at us because they know that we will keep buying their microtransactions, no matter how much they charge.
It's time for gamers to wake up and realize that we are being taken advantage of. We need to stop buying microtransactions and show Activision that we will not tolerate this type of behavior.
If we all do our part, we can make a difference. We can send a message to Activision that we will not be taken advantage of anymore. We can demand better from the companies that make the games we love.
They've crossed multiple lines. There's literally pay to win. Where you pay for an advantage. Watch gibbles YouTube and you will realize there future bundles are a f u to us because they know they will still make money. Activision put on Twitter a montage of a bunch of maps. Laughing that we all have been playing shipment and shoot house for nearly 3 years in a row. Oh and nuke town. It's got so bad. There needs to be another competition shooter that's pretty easy, fun and has some reality to it. Poll who will buy the 2023 cod game? Be honest. Also my biggest gripe there is no soap skin from the campaign. The kick in the nuts part, there won't be ever. No definitely the worst is the pay to win bundles, no maps on multiplayer and skins that soldiers are running around with lion and rat heads. It's just getting bad.

The Epidemic of Single Parent Raising a Child in America
In America, the number of single-parent households has been steadily increasing for decades. In 1960, only 9% of American families were headed by a single parent. By 2023, that number had risen to 24%. This means that nearly one in four children in America is now living in a single-parent household.
There are a number of factors that have contributed to this rise in single-parent households. One factor is the decline of marriage. In 1960, the divorce rate in America was 2.2%. By 2023, that number had risen to 40 to 50 percent. Another factor is the increase in out-of-wedlock births. In 1960, only 7% of births in America were to unmarried mothers. By 2023, that number had risen to 25%.
The rise of single-parent households has had a number of negative consequences for children. Children who grow up in single-parent households are more likely to be poor, to have lower educational attainment, and to engage in risky behaviors such as substance abuse and crime. They are also more likely to experience mental health problems such as depression and anxiety.
There are a number of things that can be done to help single parents raise their children. One is to provide them with financial assistance. Another is to provide them with access to quality childcare. Finally, we need to change the way we think about single parents. We need to stop stigmatizing them and start providing them with the support they need to raise their children successfully. Now compare America to other countries.
Here is a list of the percentage of single-parent households in some other countries: of single-parent households United States 24% Italy 17% United Kingdom 15% Canada 15%
As you can see, the United States has the highest percentage of single-parent households among G20 countries. This is followed by Italy, the United Kingdom, and Canada. The lowest percentage of single-parent households is found in Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Indonesia.
There are a number of factors that contribute to the variation in the percentage of single-parent households across G20 countries. One factor is the cultural and religious norms of each country. For example, in some countries, it is more common for single mothers to live with their extended family, while in other countries, single mothers are more likely to live on their own. Another factor is the economic conditions of each country. In countries with strong social safety nets, single parents are more likely to be able to afford to raise their children on their own. In countries with weaker social safety nets, single parents are more likely to be struggling financially.
It is important to note that the percentage of single-parent households is just one measure of the challenges faced by single parents. Other factors, such as the availability of affordable childcare and the quality of education, also play a role in the well-being of children in single-parent households.
Obviously family values are changing rapidly in america and my belief is if it's not fixed. America will crumble from the inside out. Anyone else's thoughts on the reasons why? For how long will it get worse?

How to Make a Good Airsoft Gun from a Cheap One
Airsoft is a great hobby, but people pay an insane amount of dollars for a brand such as umbrella and so on. One way to save money is to buy a cheap airsoft gun and upgrade it yourself or pay someone to upgrade it for you and you will have a top tier rifle for 600.

Spend the rest on a paint job and real steel attachments like red dots, scopes, flash light or foregrip. Vortex comes with a life time warranty.
Here are 3 tips on how to make a good airsoft gun from a cheap one:
Upgrade the motor. The motor is responsible for powering the airsoft gun. This is where you can up a third of your airsoft gun price. Buy a brushless motor they are quieter, faster and they don't heat up. No company uses a brushless motor and I honestly don't know why but chuck that in your pistol grip and boom.
Upgrade the mos fett. The mos fett is another thing that will up a third of your airsoft gun price. Good trigger sensitivity and now they connect to your phone. It can give diagnostics and stop your aeg going on fire. Gate, jefftron and perun. There awesome.
Upgrade the barrel. The barrel is responsible for directing the airsoft bb downrange. A good barrel will improve accuracy and range. Again no firm sells r hop inner barrels in there aegs. This simple bit of filed down rubber that sits in that square where the hop up connects makes a world of difference. Even to the price.

The US Using Double Proxy's to Provoke Russia?
The ongoing conflict in Ukraine has raised many questions about the role of the United States. Some people believe that the US is using the UK as a proxy to push Russia into a war that it can't win.
There is some evidence to support this theory. For example, it has been declassified that UK special forces are on the ground in Ukraine since the conflict began. Additionally, the UK has been one of the most vocal supporters of Ukraine, and has provided the country with billions of dollars in military aid.
This includes the most offensive weapons like depleted uranium shells for their tanks, and just announced recently cruise missiles. U.k is the only country to send not only defensive weapons but also offensive weapons. There's still also the mystery of who bombed Russias pipe line.
It is also worth noting that the US has a long history of using proxy wars to achieve its foreign policy goals. For example, the US supported the Mujahideen in Afghanistan during the Soviet-Afghan War, and the Contras in Nicaragua during the Iran-Contra scandal.
Of course, there is no way to know for sure if the US is using the UK as a proxy to provoke Russia. However, the evidence is certainly suggestive. If this is the case, it is a dangerous game that could have disastrous consequences for the entire world.
What do you think? Is the US using double proxy's to provoke Russia? Are you worried about nuclear war?
