I played a couple of games that remind me of this:
The Exit 8 - You're stuck in an underground train station trying to find the exit.
The Lurking Horror - Text Adventure Cthulu Mythos game where you are working late on a paper at university during a blizzard and strange things start happening.
Edit: Almost forgot, Infra - You're a structural engineer that is surveying decaying infrastructure (like old dams and tunnels) alone and of course things go wrong. The only way out is through.

I think its silly way of doing it anyway. Why can't they meet up in a public place for 5 minutes like a cafe or bar to 'see what they are buying', before heading to a second destination for the tryst. (Promiscuous) straight people do this all the time because of the risk of being catfished and to quell anxiety that your random partner doesn't reek of crazy or look completely different to how they presented themselves online.
I have an unverified video being shared around twitter that shows a supposed interview of a neighbour near the scene talking about seeing Renee actively engage in blocking ICE vehicles.
I traced it back to this GAB post, but can't find the wider interview that it was clipped from.
Edit: Got it; I traced it back to its source. There was an interview by local MPR photojournalist Ben Hovland with locals up on TikTok.
2nd Edit: Seems from the full clip that she was repeating information she received from 'another guy that was driving behind her'.

I mean these federal agencies are designed to operate with local LEO support, but in blue states that is refused. That causes problems.
I've seen this as the most consistent problem with recent ICE operations. Local police should be controlling the crowd. Actually there shouldn't be a crowd at all. Somehow there is a coordinated convoy stalking the ICE facilities and either blocking the facility itself, or tailing the vehicles to disrupt them as they go to make an arrest elsewhere.
Local Mayors deliberately refuse support, then when the situation escalates into violence, use it as ammunition to pressure ICE to leave their cities. All this helps their public opinion at the cost of public safety.
I even read an article where an obstructor remarked what are they using real bullets instead of rubber bullets.
I saw the video, but can't find a link now. Basically a black dude was filming on his porch directly in front of where the woman's car finally crashed. Her partner? was sitting on his driveway screaming 'Why did you use real bullets?!' amongst other things.
I think the woman and her partner didn't understand the seriousness of the situation they were putting themselves into by choosing to obstruct a law enforcement operation and attend a protest.
Edit: Found a link. Might be taken down quick.
2nd Edit: Full version

No. Look at the direction the front left wheel is facing when she begins to accelerate (apologies, easiest source to find). I'm almost certain the vehicle has power steering and could have been redirected before accelerating.

Fleeing police or resisting arrest shouldn't be a death sentence, but using a weapon against the police to aid your escape can be. Vehicle as a Weapon (VaaW) attacks are a big deal. They make up one of the most common forms of terrorist attack world wide and can easily kill or maim victims. You should compare the attitudes of commentators about this to their attitudes about past protest incidents. Who Whom.
And that's before we get into the differences between police directing you to exit your vehicle compared to a wild mob attacking your car.

I strongly encourage people to take breaks from OLD (or even dating in general) when they feel burnout. You won't be at your best when burnt out and frankly it feels horrible to keep engaging when you've had a bad run.

Not really endorsing your post, but there is a REAL problem with women refusing to advertise their 'true' status in any way that might give up the game before a guy invests attention in her. Even being on a dating app isn't proof positive that she's available and serious.
Certainly is. Women who's entire profile is '@instabae' or 'I'm hardly ever on here, come find me on monetised-thirsttrap.com/teehee'.
Back in the day, the pump and dump was weaponised against women like this (gold-diggers etc) with a very very large amount of collateral damage.

Also black bagging his wife would point towards a deal.
I'm not sure if people normally grab family members in operations like this. They certainly didn't swipe the wives in the Bin Laden raid.

It really makes you wonder about televised public executions as I think deterrence works on reasonably high impulse control people capable of organised white collar crime.
If there are no consequences for the people doing this, we are all mugs for working law abiding jobs and paying our taxes when grafting is an easier way to provide for ourselves and our posterity.

Can I convince you to join the cult of Aubrey Maturin enjoyers? The original book series behind Master and Commander spanned over 20 books and I've enjoyed most of them thoroughly. The audiobooks have become my go-to 'long drive/fall asleep' listening for most of this year. If you can make it through the nautical jargon of the first book, it becomes smooth sailing. Also there's plenty of different versions floating around the place.
"It is the dawn of the nineteenth century; Britain is at war with Napoleon’s France. When Jack Aubrey, a young lieutenant in Nelson’s navy, is promoted to captain, he inherits command of HMS Sophie, an old, slow brig unlikely to make his fortune. But Captain Aubrey is a brave and gifted seaman, his thirst for adventure and victory immense. With the aid of his friend Stephen Maturin, ship’s surgeon and secret intelligence agent, Aubrey and his crew engage in one thrilling battle after another, their journey culminating in a stunning clash with a mighty Spanish frigate against whose guns and manpower the tiny Sophie is hopelessly outmatched."

I think full AI is first going to infiltrate areas like the 'kids cartoon slop' genre. I remember a whole bunch of bad 3D CGI cartoons coming out in the 00's and 10's. I actually think full AI would do a better job considering the quality of the man man garbage.
If you want to remain anonymous, be aware that some Australian states made a law that retroactively allowed donor kids to find out who their biological parents were (and it was considered a human right to do so). This opened up a whole can of worms where some donors who only donated under conditions of strict anonymity had their personal lives disrupted by donor kids looking them up.
In other words, a future government may decide that 'the best interests of the child' overrule the conditions under which you originally donated.
Edit: couple of words.

I think The African Queen is his best book for adults. It has an interesting setting that you don't see much (African riverine warfare, circa 1914) and more realistically flawed characters.
I'll look into that one. I'm still finishing up The Wine Dark Sea.

In the old days women would be socially ostracized for shooting down men who were trying to respectfully interact in this way. Loose social networks or anonymity facilitate this kind of behaviour. Guys also use it to ghost, pump and dump etc, so it is what it is.

I'm doing it because season 2 of Fallout is halfway through and its trippy playing through areas and meeting groups that are showcased in the series.
