Corrik no amount of posturing will make those remarks a "joke" that is not in poor taste.

And this is hardly his first stance that would be leaning towards authoritarian.

Congrats vcharon and genny. I hope you both make each other very happy and continue to do so through good times and bad. The rest of your life is a long time, but with a good foundation as friends and as a couple im sure you have what it takes to go the distance with each other.

Let me make sure I don't have this reversed...

They are siding with the loan collectors? And not the people crippled by student debt which (correct me if i'm wrong) is still the nastiest and most lingering form of debt?

Yes, because of politics.

Yes, because of hearthstone.

Yes, because of personal attacks against myself.

I haven't followed wrestling in a decade, but we'll throw in a yes for younger FD as well if he's just as bad in those topics.

And sure as others have pointed out he still has the rare "human" moment. But they have become fewer and further between and it isn't worth everything in between to get from one redeeming moment to the next.

I mean, a lot of these you could easily just not care that much about mid level staff.

But you have to be paying attention to a lot of these individual stories to notice the larger pattern there, and none of these stories individually are stories you're likely to read in detail if you happen to already like Trump).


Yes, you could conceivably ignore one of the situations if you were to look at it in a vacuum. But we don't live in a vacuum, and they have all received a substantial amount of coverage including coverage that covers them as a group and as an existing pattern.

Seriously. Even if you still support trump in all this your positions must be:

-yeah Page did X and Y, but trump didn't know about that! He never would have worked with him if he knew.

-yeah manafort did X and Y... But trump didn't know about that!! No way!

-yeah gates/flynn/trumpjr/kushner/etc did X and Y, but trump had no knowledge of their unsavory dealings.

The only "innocent trump" is a trump that has managed to be blind to the wrongdoings of sn absurd number of his associates. If you are somehow still trump loyal despite the wealth of reasons not to be then that starts with the perceived guilt of people like Carter Page.

Kind of tangentially related, but years ago I saw a YouTube video about a guy who wondered if he could single-handedly artificially inflate the price of a game. So he found a game that was generally going for $2-5, bought every single copy that went up on eBay over a period of time, and then put them all back on at increasing prices, and not only successfully elevated the price/demand for the game in question, but now, years later, the price CONTINUES TO RISE. The game in question was Rampart on the original GameBoy.

To the point, without knowing too much about Haunting Ground, I wonder if it's some relatively common game that the demand suddenly shot way up for?


Thats exactly what i would do with enchanting mats on the auction house in WoW. It was time consuming to corner the market but you end you dramatically changing the price people expect to pay for something.

As a Christian i appreciate someone having what i consider to be Christian values.

But I do not think those values should be affecting policies in any significant ways.

Voting against drugs because you believe they have harmful impacts? Great.

Voting against drugs because the bible says not to imbibe any substances that would affect your state of mind? Not okay.

Voting to allow religious displays at schools (eg 10 commandments) because you think religious texts from ANY religion should be able to be displayed? Great.

Voting to allow religious texts of only one specific religion to be displayed because that one is your favorite? Not okay.

You can support legislation that corresponds with religious values, but it should be done because they are legitimate non-religious reasons to support them. And in many cases there are corroborating reasons but too often those get ignored and the line between church and state isv ever blurred.

What exactly did it refute? Let's hear it. And I'll tell you why it didn't actually refute it.


For starters the Rep memo claimed that the Steele dossier was (A) presented as essentially the only evidence in favor of surveillance and (B) was presented without comment as to it's potential bias.

And the Dem memo handily refuted both of those claims with an excerpt which showed that (A) there was other evidence presented to support surveillance and (B) it very specifically included comment that said who had funded Steele's research and what kind of bias that would likely entail.

So there's those two right off the top of my head.

Purely out of curiosity I let my tank run down to the fuel low light because of this topic. It says I have 75 miles left in the tank and I have to assume this is a conservative estimate

I'm guessing that most cars give you less of a warning than that? As that seems like a long time

EDIT: On refill I had 2.85 gal left so i assume the trigger is 3 gal left mark


3 gallons seems like a lot. I feel like my fuel light is triggered at 1 gallon. Which is about 20-24 miles. Ive gone 15~ miles on the fuel light before so that's probably the closest I've ever come.

Ill double check my fuel light trigger next time i gas up.

Trump telephoned a Parkland shooting victim he had been assured was a fan of his. The call did not go well


Excerpt from the article linked:

Samantha Fuentes, who was shot in both legs during the Parkland assault, said she had felt no reassurance during a phone call from the president to her hospital room last week.

He said he heard that I was a big fan of his, and then he said, Im a big fan of yours too. Im pretty sure he made that up, she said in an interview after being discharged from the hospital. Talking to the president, Ive never been so unimpressed by a person in my life. He didnt make me feel better in the slightest.

Ms. Fuentes, who was left with a piece of shrapnel lodged behind her right eye, said Mr. Trump had called the gunman a sick puppy and said oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, like, seven times.

The account of the call was reminiscent of the last time Mr. Trump drew public scrutiny for his reaction to a tragedy, with his private condolence call to Myeshia Johnson, the widow of Sgt. La David T. Johnson, one of four American soldiers killed in an attack in Niger.


Why is her potentially being a fan of his relevant? Did he only extend condolences to the wounded teenagers that were purported to be his fans?

Calling and extending sympathy to others is one of the easiest ways to do something nice without much chance to F*** it up, but somehow he has managed to bungle it at least twice now through is utter lack of empathy and his ability to make anything about himself.

If he could just work on that one tiny thing I bet he could nearly pass for human.

I'm not sure where I stand on the school security officer not engaging Cruz during the Parkland shooting.

Is it policy to engage without backup?

But even policy aside, it's not an easy decision to make.
