It’s always been a very ugly game. I never expected that to change… but games are a lot more than graphics. Minecraft still looks like Minecraft, after all.

You’ll need to cite your sources on that, though the APA style guide doesn’t have a citation format for “conservative grandparents with dementia.”

“…for a crime they were later they later exonerated of.”

It’s disappointing that all it took for a headline like “no one has ever so thoroughly dominated Donald Trump” was a question-dodging stereotypical politician. I was very frustrated by the entire debate. Trump’s word salad and Kamala’s deflection kung-fu… but I understand that I am not the only person in the US, so emotionally charged anecdotes instead of clear answers are what wins the day.
