they're protesting because the developer made all jobs pay the same, is making the game free, and added a bunch of healthcare/parking fees.
the bloxburg politburo makes an update but doesn't really implement any of the changes people want
here's a reddit thread longposting about this how bloxburg is actually capitalist (capitalism famous for making all jobs pay the same)
https://old.reddit.com/r/Bloxburg/comments/1cf53jj/this_is_not_communism/?sort=controversial
- Communism has free healthcare, bloxburg does not. Even other marxist ideologies all agree on having free healthcare so how is bloxburg adding expensive healthcare the communism update. One case of this is the NHS in the UK, not communism but socialism which are both marxist ideologies.
do zoomies think the money for healthcare just pops out of the ground?

There's eruptions of drama all over the thread and I don't feel like copying it all bc I'm lazy but I will mention that Anna herself shows up in the comments and attempts to defend herself but only succeeds in dragging poor Dasha down into the muck with her

I'm sure Dasha agrees, but as a listener it's pretty clear which of you has gone down a weird internet rabbit hole with no means of escape. You have no reason to listen to random Reddit comments but it's so cynical and ugly Anna.

Yeah I think you just don't like me which is fine but I want it to be clear that I would never trespass against my partner or inflict my own agenda if it was unwelcome

In a medical anomaly that has stunned both medical professionals and the public alike, doctors have discovered a dead worm in the brain of Brianna Wu, a prominent software engineer and political activist.
Wu, known for her work in the tech industry and her advocacy on issues related to online harassment, sought medical attention after experiencing a series of unusual neurological symptoms. These symptoms included severe headaches, confusion, and seizures. Initial tests, including MRI and CT scans, failed to reveal the underlying cause of her distress.
The breakthrough came during an exploratory surgery performed by a team of neurosurgeons at Massachusetts General Hospital. Dr. Samantha Hayes, the lead neurosurgeon on the case, described the discovery as "unprecedented and astonishing."
"We were not expecting to find a parasitic infection, especially not a worm," Dr. Hayes said in a press conference. "This is an extremely rare occurrence, and it underscores the importance of thorough investigation when patients present with unexplained neurological symptoms."
The worm, identified as a larval stage of Taenia solium, commonly known as the pork tapeworm, is known to cause a condition called neurocysticercosis. This parasitic infection occurs when the larvae invade the brain, leading to a variety of neurological issues. While neurocysticercosis is more common in regions with poor sanitation and where pork is a dietary staple, it is exceedingly rare in the United States.
Wu's case has sparked concern and curiosity within the medical community. Dr. Margaret Chin, an infectious disease specialist, explained the potential pathways for such an infection. "In rare cases, individuals can ingest the eggs of the tapeworm through contaminated food or water. These eggs then travel through the bloodstream and can lodge in various tissues, including the brain," Dr. Chin noted.
Following the surgery, Wu is reported to be in stable condition and recovering well. In a statement released through her spokesperson, she expressed gratitude for the medical team's expertise and the support she has received from her family and friends. "This has been a harrowing experience, but I am relieved to be on the path to recovery," Wu said. "I hope that my case can raise awareness about the importance of seeking medical attention for persistent and unexplained health issues."
The discovery has also prompted discussions about public health and the need for vigilance in food safety practices. Experts emphasize that while such infections are rare, proper hygiene and food preparation methods are crucial in preventing parasitic diseases.
As Brianna Wu continues her recovery, her experience serves as a reminder of the unpredictable nature of medical science and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of extraordinary challenges.

A zoo in China sparked all out panda-monium after they dressed dogs as pandas because they didn't have the genuine artifact, as seen in viral photos.
The fake pandas, unveiled May 1 at the Taizhou Zoo in Jiangsu Province, were actually Chow Chow dogs — a big-haired breed from Northern China, Jam Press reported.
Zoo officials reportedly trimmed their mane and dyed their faces black to look like China's iconic bamboo-eating bear.
They then put the so-called “panda dogs” on display in an enclosure every day from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., attracting throngs of people despite the obvious bamboo-zlement, per the sanctuary's staffers.
When asked why they had the canines engage in panda cosplay, a rep explained, “There are no panda bears at the zoo and we wanted to do this as a result.”

No reason to drink tonight outside of just frick it, bought some boxed wine for an upcoming party this weekend and a couple glasses turned into 15 glasses. Now I'm just at wine drunk levels of giving 0 fricks and online shopping. Bought a bunch of dumb shit and then hit the point of drunk clarity that that was stupid.
