Wait, you can just stop paying rent to cut costs? This changes everything for me!

Spike his mountain dew with viagra so he gives me some grandchildren? My experience with parents-in-laws is that all they care about is you making some babies.

It was just a couple years ago the President of the United States described white supremacist protestors as, "good people."

Kinda hard to argue that Lineker is wrong.

Nah someone in my very fist Computer Science course copied a program off stackexchange and they literally got expelled for it. So right from the jump, everyone in our graduating class was scared straight as far as that shit goes lol.

I'd eat the bacon, and then dump the rest of that weird shit in the garbage disposal. Lovingly, of course.

This has the same energy as, "I know it's uncomfortable to think about high school kids having sex, but they're going to do it anyway so let's make it as safe as possible and teach them about using protection."

Certain people's reaction to this says quite a bit about how they view queer people.

They are the absolute worst. Trying to pit regular folk against eachother by making their minimum wage workers check receipts, all the while recording record levels of profit.

I just smile and say, "no thanks" when they ask to check my receipt. I'm not stealing, and even if I was, they can check their cameras and file a police report if they think they have enough evidence. Fuck 'em.

Ask someone if they grew up rich without asking if they grew up rich.

He's been saying this for 10 years. Literally.

As someone who knows nothing about the situation, I do kind of doubt the dude being all that impactful when he's been in prison on the other side of the world for a decade.

And even if he was, that sort of thing will never go away by keeping him in jail. It's a power/opportunity vaccuum. There will always be someone else to rush in and fill the void.

I'm kinda torn over how I feel about it. On the one hand, potentially introducing people into the military who have the ability to spread contagion around seems really dumb. On the other hand, however, I can't think of who better to send into the military meat grinder than anti-vaxxers. You certainly don't want to send smart people to front lines, their skills could better serve society elsewhere.

Am I the only one who really, REALLY doesn't give a shit about Bout getting released? Like, at all? A wrongfully detained American is home and safe again, and I'll deport a Russian scumbag 100% of the time if that's what it takes to get it done.

I just don't care, like, at all. Give them 5 GRU spies for Whaelan if that's what it takes.

Yeah. This is Trump's tax plan finally kicking in. It raises taxes on the low and middle classes to lower them for the rich.

I am 100% certain his supporters will either not remember this and blame it on Biden, or more likely, somehow rationalize it as a good deal for them.

I would say do it if you enjoy PVE or PVP endgame stuff. The last few expansions have been marred by copious amounts of chores required to maintain the power level needed to do those things, though. Fortunately, for the first time in a long time they're seemingly lifting those chore requirements. Talents are more the way they were before MoP, too, so it actually might not be that big a shock.

If you just like questing or story or whatever, that stuff is extremely unfun imo. I wouldn't really be the person to ask about it. To me, launch is the worst. It means grinding quests for the first time in 2 years and it bores me to tears. So glad I'm level capped and completed all the sidequests for Loremaster, lol.

Oh, this is full of subtext. Sony is bigly mad.

I still oppose the deal, because two gigantic corporations merging is nothing but anti-consumer.

Normally I would agree, but as a consumer of World of Warcraft over the past ~6 years, I kinda feel like someone else telling them what they can and can't do will only improve the game. At the very least, it is impossible for it to get worse.

14 off that list.

Zelda II is probably the one of note. So glad I did that when I was in high school, I would never have the perseverance for that nowadays.

I'd consider watching and rewatching Marine's "Treasure Box" for an equal amount of hours that you spent on Gura's vods.

I mean, it would objectively be the most monumental discovery in the history of humanity. You're talking about confirming the existence of a soul, an afterlife for that soul, and the ability to flit in and out of other people's bodies with it. 80 years after your death.

To say that I would be shocked would be an understatement. It would be a fundamental reordering of everything I think I know, and of human society itself.

They should strike anyways, they're getting massively screwed. I'd be shocked if the new legislation didn't just let them hire scabs and send the union members to jail anyways, though. They tend to be pretty thorough when it comes to shit their corporate masters actually want them to get done.

"People should be able to waste 2/3 of their adult lives doing meaningless, repetitive tasks so they can continue surviving," is the most late-stage capitalist mindset I've ever heard. People don't even stop and think how absurd it is, either. They just take it for granted that that's how it should be.

I'd ask her how she found my mom's basement.

So it took Kanye verbally attacking Elon for him to get the banhammer?

I mean, that's been the Twitter MO thus far. Everything and anything is fair game (free speech!) until you target Elon. Just like all those people who got banned for "impersonating" him, and only him.

It's obvious what he was thinking. You don't unload a clip into someone eating some chicken mcnuggies if you even remotely consider them a fellow human being.

That game is ancient, and people have been playing it religiously for a long, long time.

Practice. Loads and loads of practice. Just like anything else.

My dude, I would not be afraid of Nick Fuentes, be afraid of his ideas being mainstreamed and embraced by dangerous people sure, but him? Dude is a huge pussy who would run from even the threat of violence and would drop from a single well thrown punch.

They're obviously not afraid of stick-figure Nick Funetes. It's the lynch mobs that he so enjoys stirring up. To the stated effect of, "wiping out" black neighborhoods.

Yikes. The correct response is to just ignore her forever after that. She ain't interested. Anything further is just gonna be weird and demeaning, on your part.

Get out of there.

They literally had to strap me down, I was so afraid. I was a gibbering mess when they told me, but I remember the doctor grabbing my face and saying, "this is happening. You're going to die if I don't do this. This is happening."

It was fucking hell. Like all the nurses and doctors came to me and apologized after because it was so traumatic. They all felt bad about it, but what could they do? I was too scared to sit there meekly, and my bladder was already overfull.

What was the name of that level? Statue or something like that? Fuck, that game was good.

Happened to me. I get chronic kidney stones, and the removal of some caused blood clots to block me up so I couldn't piss. Was very, very, very uncomfortable. After like a day of waiting for me to go, they eventually scanned me with some instrument and that told them there was 660ml in my bladder, which was apparently cause for alarm.

So of course, they had to take measures to empty it, and that's when things got REAL bad.

I've spent the last week getting 5-6 hours and it fucking wrecked me. I was on the verge of a mental breakdown honestly. I slept 9 straight hours last night, though, and I woke up feeling like a million bucks. Forgot what it felt like to feel alive.

Trump would definitely win. Too many people remain brainwashed against their own interests to ever vote for a democratic socialist, and Trump got 70 million people to vote for him just 2 years ago.

Gotta wait for all the boomers to die before someone like AOC can get elected.

Nice. Someone buy me a Switch so I can get this. OLED, if you please.

Just borrow another $50 billion to build an iPhone competitor, easy. I'm sure there are some US tax dollar kickbacks he can get if he pretends it's green or uses solar power or some shit, too.

Standard Elon operating procedure.

Eh. They're popcorn flicks, and they serve their purpse. I've never paid to see one, and I never would , and the elite film makers always be crapping on shit like this. However, if you're trying to tell me NO ONE will bankroll a serious Tarantino movie now (on the drop of a hat, mind you) because everything has to be a popcorn flick, I think you're insane.

It would, frankly, be weird if the elite film makers didn't feel this way. It's OK for everyone to have opinions. Some people wanna think when they see a film, others just wanna see sexy people in tight clothes blow shit up.

I will never understand the interest in telling other people what they can and can't do. There's some fucking crazy people out there, can't even begin to imagine what it was like falling into that hate crowd. I got enough self-hatred as it is, and that's all mental. If people were telling me I should hate my physical self too, I likely would not make it.

I hope she continues to do whatever the fuck she wants to do. You too, CE. As long as it doesn't involve going around being a dick to other people.

This is the worst country in the history of the world.

Federalist 10 spells it out for you. True democracy is bad, because all the poor people will just vote that the rich people stop being dicks, pay them a living wage, and let everyone live comfortably. So the argument for it is that you obscure the common man's voice with all kinds of layers of representation, both so that rich people can actually decide what goes on, and politicians can stay in power without having to actually do what their constiuents want.

tl:dr: the argument for it is clearly stated by the Framers in the Federalist Papers. It's to keep you down, and the elite up.

She's like that annoying kid in your neighborhood that used to cry about being, "the only kid on the block who's grounded all the time," while conveintly neglecting to point out that she's also the only kid to consistently do shit worth being grounded for.

Everyone used to just roll their eyes at that person, knowing how completely unfit they were to survive in the real world. Now we elect those kids to Congress when they grow up.

The funny thing about this is I bet if he found out one of his low level programmers was working 3, or even just 2, jobs, he'd make a big stink about it and call it theft.
