TopicWhich Trump indictment is most likely to stick?
Uglyface2
08/14/23 5:35:02 PM

Georgia's the most likely. There's precedent for letting people get away with stealing documents (Sandy Berger), January 6 is seriously overblown (it was a riot, this should be over), and Stormy Daniels has a lot of grey area. The Georgia thing sounds a lot more serious and harder to explain away.

If the left really wanted to be rid of Trump, they wouldn't give him so much airtime. There are other people trying to run, maybe start talking them up. The Iowa State Fair coverage was just embarrassing.

Full remake? They can fix the hell out of Xenogears. Fix the slow text, fix the issue practically everyone had with the second disc, add some more story beats... I mean, we're talking remake. There was a lot to like about Xenogears, it's just that production issues emblematic of its time hampered it.

well if we're talking utopian ideals

there's no justification against open borders that isn't entirely rooted in the moral failures of capitalism (or blatant xenophobia)

The Roman Empire might have had something to say about that.

EDIT: I'd like to see an international collaborative push towards mining and eventual colonization of space. There are such vast resources available in our solar system alone that we may never need to dig another hole deeper than we need to plant crops. It's oversimplified here, but the concept is real.

I have no respect for any outlet that would expose their readers to a scam advertisement. In this case, I was reading an article about fat women stealing shoes from Burlington when my browser was redirected to another site and I got a popup claiming to be my antivirus software stopping a bunch of viruses. I'm familiar enough with tech support scams to know that it wasn't my software, so I closed the popup and the browser tab. Then I ran my own virus scan to make sure I hadn't gotten infected from the fake website.

I tried to be a good sport about this and warn the original website, but their "Contact" link didn't work. Fuck them, I unsubscribed.

What really pisses me off is that not everyone is wise to tech support scams, and this site likely draws an older audience that's completely clueless. I'd warn you lot against visiting, but I doubt anyone here visits the site.

Ever? I mean, I technically didn't leave the theater, but I did step out of The Karate Kid Part 3 to play an arcade game. I can't remember the name of it, but it was related to Contra and was played from behind the back like the tunnel stages (not Cabal or anything like that, this game scrolled). It was on one of the XBox 360's programs, some kind of arcade gimmick that I can't remember.

It's going to bug me all night now.

I've never seen this show, and I never want to. I watch some of the YouTube channels that cover disturbing things. A few of them covered a truly disturbing attempt by someone at making an ARG or a creepypasta where they used a clip from something that wound up being child porn. Once someone reached out to the creators with that information, they took their website down. Anyway, without too much detail, I'm told that the clip referenced Caillou.

Apparently, that's the sort of thing that passed for humor in the late 80s/early 90s era of cartoons in which this was made, but it usually came off as more annoying than funny.

No. No, it didn't. I was the target audience for this, and I was embarrassed to watch it.
