Gamers often get a bad rap for all sorts of reasons, but did you know that gamers are actually saving the environment? That's right—by sitting around all day and doing absolutely nothing but mash buttons, they maintain a significantly lower carbon footprint than the average over-achieving consumer. So the next time your relatives praise your successful jet-setting sibling for their long list of accomplishments, remind them that you're singlehandedly solving the climate crisis by waking up at 2pm and spending the rest of the day speedrunning Portal 2 until finally enjoying your one meal of instant noodles. Brag about how little water you waste by only showering a few times a month. Show them how much legendary loot you've managed to gain without physically leaving your gamer chair. They'll surely be impressed.
