  LA metro discourse triggers psychosis. It’s not good. It’s slow, it goes halfway to nowhere, and there’s always someone in distress while cops play candy crush.

  Dying of cancer and still afraid to actually talk frankly about the true problems facing people. No, it isn't Candy Crush, the game primarily popular with housewives.

  I suspect the 16 week half is not going to have a lot of working people and they will all be addicted to candy crush, porn, and meds.

  For all but four years of my life I have lived without a personal computer. In college, I used the computer labs… it was wonderful, in comparison to later experiences, to have pals nearby suffering like you were. My first computer was an Apple laptop. I had never used Apple before. It sat on a quilt I was using as a table cover for three years while the credit card they had advertised for its “affordability” accrued interest so fast that I ultimately paid three times the original price. I only used it to check email haha (it turned out that, indeed, reality television and a full time job were enough and back then Survivor was it…I looked forward all week to the next episode.) I sold that laptop in a Panera for $600. Not bad for used, but barely. My second computer was a gift from a well off would-be boyfriend who thought a huge touch screen Lenovo was the right guess. I used it to conquer Candy Crush while listening to Obama lecture from the t. v. in the adjacent room. Then, out of nowhere, this monster computer/monitor combo went dark. I knew nothing about computers, I was a chemical engineering turned English major: I had avoided computers like the plague. (It dawns on me now how my first memory of computers was in about the second or third grade where I won an award for a paragraph I wrote on a computer screen detailing my plans to sell the most school candy bars that year and win a bike. Maybe it wasn’t for my writing ability, after all??) So, the Lenovo died and I couldn’t fix it or replace it…. It’s ok, I felt I had thoroughly whooped both candy crush and candy soda crush and that must be it,so I went out back to dig in the dirt.

  Makes sense — it's not much better on the consumer side either. Windows keeps "fixing" the wrong things: Windows 8: ugly design → backlash. Windows 10: fixed it → everyone happy. Logical next step for Windows 11? Fix bugs. Cut bloat. Speed it up. What did Microsoft do instead? Redesigned it all over again. 🙃 The actual to-do list sat there, untouched: • Start menu — stripped down, centered by default, less customizable than 2015's version • Ads — built into the Start menu and lock screen. A $2,000 laptop that also sells you Candy Crush. • Copilot — wedged into every corner, nobody asked • TPM 2.0 — legit security call. But ditching old hardware was the perfect excuse to also ditch the legacy code behind it and ship something leaner. Instead: more bloat, and a higher entry price. Somehow this counts as "innovation."

  @TheOnlyDSC I'm pretty sure she had money for the many piercings she's sporting, but she has a problem having to pay for her own candy as the taxpayers (you and me) won't be supplimenting your fat arse with our money. A part time job might cover you candy crush, but you'd have to work.

  @unquirer How incredibly sad is this? Talk about "Flailing at fictitious Windmills." It's so very clear -- the Directionless, the Lonely, the Disconnected -- no longer working, kids grown and gone - they've lost "life context." If they weren't doing this, it would be Candy Crush in a dark living room, or gambling the 401K at Bangor Slots, or maybe pursuing a new "love interest" in Nigeria, with a future slot on Reality TV. Too bad they can't figure out a "way to waste their time" that isn't more impactful and productive in the Real World.

  @Hockey_ftw Sasse is blaming culture that is *shaped* by policy that *he supports* — policy that actively harms parents and makes it more difficult to have and support children. He’s telling you it’s Candy Crush and you’re believing it while he’s the ******* problem.

  @LizzieMarbach Women are just so bad at playing them which is the real crux of the issue. Like 5 year old boys can crush them at anything that isn't...candy crush

  @JessicaHamel19 @MeghanEMurphy it’s better to spend 18 hours a day yelling at internet people then playing a game that has puzzles and requires problem solving. They are just jealous they suck at 99% of games besides Candy Crush

  @CREID2852 @Empty_America Candy Crush is played a few hours a day, a huge chunk of the players way past fertility. What our society does, keep trying the same stupid solutions is the very definition of insanity. The reality is, there is not fix and we don't need one.

  @KFalexthegreat @RushBaby1980 Easy to exude quiet and pensive when taxes pay for your healthcare. To so openly hate the poor and sick (and then blame the world's problems on children playing candy crush) like he does is vile.

  @shaunmeasom @ClashofClans What an L take, nerfs are to make everyone happy. Just because you like to abuse broken stuffs, that doesn't mean everyone feels the same. If you don't like to use some braincell to play this game, you have candy crush on the playstore.

  I don't have enough space on here... a few things: -US birth rates have been declining since 2007 -a part of the recent decline is a significant decrease in teen pregnancies -the Candy Crush analogy was incredibly lazy -between the healthcare system, lack of paternal/maternal paid leave, rising cost of living in general, and insanely expensive costs of childcare, there are many financial factors that make affording children extremely difficult and not to mention the time/flexibility required for two working parents -while Sen. Sasse was in office, he called ACA/Obamacare 'arguably the worst law in our history.' Regardless of your opinion of ACA, it mandated maternity coverage, which was a huge win for new moms; prior, people could unknowingly be stuck with massive hospital bills. -I imagine the younger population is a bit frustrated with the current outlook for jobs, finances, owning a home, the general state of society, etc.

  @TatataToddC @charlieINTEL @TheVerge unfortunately CoD, Candy Crush, Forza, Elder Scrolls Online, Fallout76, Sea of Thieves, Minecraft, Diablo, Overwatch, WoW, Crash n Spyro make them tons of profit.. its the other bullshit: Project Blackbird 400m wasted Perfect dark 200m Everwild 150m redfall 70m hellblade2 80m

  This is, of course, totally in bad faith but if you extrapolate "ban candy crush" to what Sasse actually means, I would take the "ban candy crush" side as the heavy favorite. There is no amount of money or accommodation that will restore fertility. Yet another problem that we have tried and failed to GDP ourselves out of.

  Low TFR is a problem, but Candy crush is red herring here. Real problem is expensive housing. Need real incentives like 33% off taxes for every child under 18

  @Hammertimeeeee @pete_scanlon Hi 🐷! Hilarious that a stupid high school educated 🐷 is telling someone to “research” something. 🐷 are the stupidist members of society. Incidently, I don’t have a problem with this. It’s better that a dumb violent 🐷 be playing Candy crush than violating someone’s rights ACAB

  To cite Candy Crush and not lack of proper maternity leave, unaffordable childcare expenses, a broken healthcare system, as the reason young women are deciding not to have babies, is infinitely insulting. @BenSasse

  @balatroist @KevinCastley @grok When you don’t have an argument. You either strawman or just hurl insults. You haven’t made a single coherent rebuttal . Other than Oh Yeah what about xxxxx. In lieu actually addressing the issue. This isn’t your strong suit. Maybe find something else to do. Try midget porn maybe or candy crush. I hear that’s popular.

  another great Chinese invention after DeepSeek and GLM-5.2: 90-second fake billionaire divorce dramas that somehow make more money than Netflix on mobile sounds stupid until you look at the business model it’s not really “streaming” it’s TikTok + soap opera + mobile game monetization you get a crazy opening: poor girl secretly married the billionaire CEO evil stepmom humiliates her ex-boyfriend appears someone gets slapped then right before the reveal… episode ends next episode costs coins this is the important part: Chinese short dramas are not competing with HBO they’re competing with TikTok, Candy Crush, gambling loops, romance novels, and boredom the user is not thinking: “is this cinema?” they’re thinking: “wait what happens next?” that is a much stronger business than people want to admit the format exploded in China because it solved 3 problems at once: creators could produce much faster than normal film/TV platforms already had short-video traffic web-novel style storytelling already trained users to pay chapter by chapter China basically turned internet novels into vertical video vending machines and the unit economics are brutal traditional streaming: spend huge money make 8 episodes hope people subscribe wait months for feedback short drama: make cheap episodes test the hook immediately kill what doesn’t convert scale what makes people pay it’s closer to mobile gaming than Hollywood and that’s why the App Store rankings look insane you now have these short drama apps ranking above serious billion-dollar streaming platforms not because the shows are better because the loop is sharper Netflix asks for attention short dramas demand resolution big difference the other interesting part: this format is now going global ReelShort, DramaBox, ShortMax, DramaWave, NetShort, etc. same structure, localized tropes: US market: werewolves, mafia romance, secret babies, billionaire husbands China market: revenge, family status, hidden identity, social mobility fantasy SEA/LATAM/India: localized melodrama + mobile-first payment loops this is also why AI video matters Seedance 2.0 and similar models won’t instantly create a perfect 90-minute movie wrong mental model the first real use case is much smaller: generate test scenes make fake trailers localize actors/backgrounds A/B test hooks turn scripts into animatics make ads faster produce low-budget vertical scenes cheaper short drama is one of the first entertainment categories where “AI slop” may actually be economically native because the audience is not paying for prestige they’re paying for: plot velocity emotional payoff identity fantasy cliffhanger resolution so the question is not: “can AI make cinema?” the question is: “can AI make the next 90 seconds addictive enough that someone pays 99 cents?” that is a much easier problem and probably a much bigger market than people think my take: short dramas will not replace Netflix but they will take time and spend from mobile games, romance apps, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and casual entertainment the next big entertainment company may not look like Disney it may look like a game studio running hundreds of tiny soap operas with AI-assisted production and casino-level retention math
