I mean, it's not like the Ravens lack of WR signings in free agency has been for lack of trying. But guys like Juju and Hilton didn't want to go. Wouldn't be surprised if they pursued Golladay too, but I didn't hear anything about that.

Curtis Samuel signing with the Team

They might actually be pretty good next season

I feel awful saying this as a Cowboys fan but honestly, aside from Snyder still being the owner I actually quite like the look of WFT next year. Fitzpatrick (or Heinicke when Fitztragic inevitably strikes)+McLaurin+Samuel+Gibson should make for a plenty exciting offense, and we already know their defense is solid enough.

Dalton to the Bears. 1 year, 10 million. Shoot me now.

lololololololololololololol

I mean, Dalton's quite possibly the best QB the bears have had in a very long time, but lmao

Can we like, go back in time two years, pay Dak whatever he wants then, and not pay Zeke? Please?

Wow, who could have possibly seen this coming

Maybe letting Uber/Postmates/Door Dash write their own law was a bad idea after all!

Regardless of how you count it the big picture here is that tons of poor people who lost their jobs due to the pandemic are totally fucked even with the scraps they're getting, especially once things like rent moratoriums are lifted

The major highways in the DFW area actually appear to be fine. It's the side streets that are problematic, but it's all snow, not ice.

i mean it clearly didn't cross enough political lines.

but hey now that we're done with the impeachment show, let's go back to daddy wanting his goddamn check.

A bill for checks passed committee in the house yesterday. They're still doing things while the Senate Republican try to ensure that there are no consequences for trying to destroy democracy.

This is just a reminder of how hard it is to win Super Bowls and how absurd it is that Brady is closing in on his 7th

yeah, basically

Congrats Chris and whatever other Bucs fans actually exist. I'm hoping I'll find a reason to really care about sports this year, but I'm really struggling to find one among the local teams

since it's not looking that likely that KC shows up to this game at all I will say that if they had won I would've asked you to write up what makes Dragon Quest VI a better game than Dragon Quest V

I can even impersonate MMXCalibur and rank you (including short summary and analysis!)

oh shit

(I don't actually know what I want you to write about, I just saw you invoked MMX and kneejerk reacted. I'll say something later if it looks like TB may actually lose the game)

I feel like Reich would want him because Wentz was most successful when he was OC at Philly. Reuniting him with Foles would be hilarious though.

No, no. CHI sends Foles back to Philly as part of the deal

Then mid-season when Wentz isn't working they beg for Foles back, return some of what they got in the process, and Foles carries the Bears to the promised land of a divisional round loss to the Packers or some shit

It's not really something you need a new computer to play, but the last PC game I played was VA-11 HALL-A and it was very good.

I don't think it was the best cast, but I wouldn't say they sucked as a whole and there were some characters I did like.

DR1's cast looks alright until you try to put them up next to DR2's really.

Like, not to say DR2 doesn't have a fair few flaws in its cast and a couple characters that are more gimmicks than anything, but it really makes DR1 look bad by comparison outside of like, maybe four characters off the top of my head

There shouldnt be a market on essential utilities.

Sad Texas noises

Honestly, replacing the programs with direct, less conditional payments seems good on the surface, especially since it decouples them from taxes (and therefore guarantees the people who need money will still be getting it if e.g they lose their job). I'm sure I'm missing something here, but I don't know what it is.

The real question is whether the Republicans will have any ability to kneecap and sabotage it like they did with the ACA, or if they'll just gut it once they have the power to.

Also yes funding this by not cutting safety nets would be ideal.

UshiromiyaEva posted...

Seeing people wishing this wasn't a secret ballot, but I'm glad it was. We now have a definitive count of how many Republican house members actually believe their bullshit and how many are doing it for show.

On one hand, yes. On the other, the fact that ~80 reps are elevating and amplifying the bullshit for show might actually be more infuriating than if they actually believed in it lmao

oh, yeah, Akudama Drive is Kodaka as fuck.

The anime is kinda sorta worth if you really want more and to wrap up the plotline from the first two games, but only if you really want that closure since it's not that good on its own merits. UDG is pretty trashy and pretty optional regardless of whether you want to watch the anime or not, there's only a couple things you'll miss out on.

The anime is entirely optional for DRV3 which is a reboot despite Monokuma's presence (And was billed as such before release, so not a spoiler or anything)

Suprak the Stud posted...

I swear these last three cases are vastly improving my opinion of the game as a whole. Looking back, suddenly so much stuff makes sense and this is legitimately a great twist.

This is exactly why I respect anybody who says 2-6 > 2-5 btw, because holy shit yes it does. 2-5 is fantastic, but 2-6 elevates fucking everything in this game.

masterplum posted...

I think I'm finally at the point in my life where I really don't want another check >_> I really do not need the money. Wish the checks were more targeted.

Honestly, yes, but two things.

1) Even if you feel this way, you're not going to say no to money in your pocket, and nobody here is so well off that they wouldn't find a use for it.
2) It's literally cheaper for the government to not means test this stuff and just give it to everybody. Same concept as UBI as an alternative to welfare.

Ideally, yes, the poor and those who need it most would get the vast majority of the benefit here. But realistically, not gonna happen.

Akechi now has a "real" S.Link right?

This is basically the only thing that I'd think a person who played the original needs to know before going into Royal.

azuarc posted...

Like, why would anyone lend a stock? "Hey, can you lend me your stuff so I can sell it? I promise I'll give them right back, good as new."

Because they get paid to do so. Similar concept to charging interest on traditional loans.

I'm glad Suprak enjoyed 2-5 so much.

DQ and Persona were already mentioned, so good job everybody.

I'd also say Civ V is probably a better game than Civ VI

Yes but Civ IV is better than Civ V

Biden ordering DoJ to end private prison contracts

Didn't Obama do this at the very end of his term too? Then Trump immediately undid it iirc. I guess doing it at the very start of the term means that it might be able to carry forward via inertia

One Punch Man would be god tier manga if it were Murata's art and ONE's pacing+not actually continually remaking old chapters

As it is, the webcomic version is still pretty good but the art definitely holds it back even though I find it a bit charming, and Murata's version is just a pain in the ass to try to read even though it's fucking beautiful.

I mean, thats totally reasonable.

I hope your astonishment comes from the fact that other people DONT get treated like that

100% yes on both counts imo.

There can be no healing without accountability.

I don't remember the details but there's a game-breaking glitch in Jak 2 which causes an NPC to not appear which you need to progress, and I don't think it was too difficult to trigger by accident when just playing normally if you didn't know what caused it.

Yup. I remember triggering this one by accident once.

Twilight Princess has a similar glitch tied to saving and quitting in some specific room, too.

Texas, which has somehow become the place with the 2nd craziest GOP leaders as of the last two months.

Dan "Old People are willing to die for the DOW" Patrick, Ken "I literally got elected while under indictment for fraud" Paxton and so on have been in power here for a lot more than two months, I'm afraid.

And that's not even getting into some of the elected federal guys.

Glad to see people keep falling for the no-evidence lie of "if we raise minimum wage, prices will skyrocket" when actually doing so has consistently demonstrated that even if prices went up, it wasn't by nearly enough to offset the increased purchasing power of the increased wages

I think the Delta twist might be one of my least favorite twists ever... of all time. I've never seen anything quite like it.

If you're interested, this Reddit list has a bunch of the foreshadowing from earlier in the game: https://www.reddit.com/r/ZeroEscape/comments/4qsmvu/ztd_spoilerslets_find_all_of_the_foreshadowing/

I still think the twist is dumb.

I don't think the twist is too bad, but a fair few of these "hints" are blatant bullshit at best lmao

Not last few months.

Last 12 years.

The GOP has been a cancer infecting this country for a long time. It's gotten worse and worse but they've been the Evil Party for as long as I can remember.

12? Try 50. This shit goes directly back to Dick Nixon.

This right here is why I support people like Susan Collins.

The idea of Susan Collins is nice.

The reality of Susan Collins is that she goes along with literally everything the Republican party actually wants and only dissents as a sham when they have the numbers anyways to make a show of being "moderate". Remember how she voted not to impeach Trump specifically because "he learned his lesson"? She's a joke of a human being and has no principles.
