One of the best games on the market. Worth every cent and then some, even at full price.

I was wondering which restaurants this guy was able to eat his wife out at.

Waffle House, ofc.

Initial scroll through looks pretty meh. There a list of good’ns going yet?

Edit-

From another thread, looks like Witcher 3 is 90% off. If you haven’t played it yet, now’s the time!

Just realized this is the perfect time of year to stock up on some fireworks. That level of evil leaving the government (formally or influentially) absolutely merits celebration!

…there are a few of those fucking cockroaches whose passing would justify lighting up a few celebratory 'splosions.

Does that count as introspection?

I don’t recall ever seeing Bobo and mtg both at the same time… pretty sure they’re just one Nazi who occasionally dons a wig and glasses.

Fox addiction.

Ate out with the wife tonight, and got an unexpected political back-to-back: the restaurant had CNN playing on one end of my field of view, and Fox on the other.

CNN reported on all kinds of shit. Every time I looked up, different topic. They went back to the upcoming debate and the Gaza genocide a couple times, but otherwise just an even spread of unfolding events.

Fox spent most of the time talking about how left wing media will spin the debate to make Trump look like an extremist; and then a few small snips about how illegal immigrants are terrorizing our society and getting our youth hooked on fentanyl. They even managed to bitch about Hillary lol, although I missed the context… assuming they’re still rambling about emails.

People who watch Fox must be terrified and angry like all the time lol.

The only way to stop a bad kindergartner with a gun, is with a good kindergartner with a gun.

Absolutely, but it’s a lot better than whatever the hell we’re doing now. And it can happen fast - biggest holdup would be the sudden change in supply/staffing demands at relatively few facilities, but the VA can limp along while doing its best until those needs are met.

This is speaking as a veteran who receives care at the VA - if there’s one thing they can do well, it’s juggling a clusterfuck while still somehow remaining operational.

Well… there is a federal path to handling state level health care crises.

Two magical ingredients.

First is to actually declare a state of emergency in the Y’all Qaeda infested regions of the US on the basis of denied healthcare leading to the current and worsening humanitarian crisis in those areas; and in doing so, enabling the VA to provide abortion services to non-veterans under section §1784 of title 38, United States Code.

Second is federal enclave, which pretty much states that on federal facilities, state law can eat a bag of dicks.

This dystopian GOP shit is maddening. We need to stop trying to argue with it, and start finding ways to just work around it. Fuck em.

…mistook?

People like Elon are part of why I refuse to bring anyone into this dumpster fire of a planet.

I wouldn’t complain about this becoming an annual tradition.

I used to live in an apartment that also explicitly disallowed window units. The apartment did have a fireplace though, and I figured hot air rises, so we just shoved a window unit in there and let the hot air vent out the chimney.

It did the trick, and we never agreed not to install a fireplace unit.

It works in the US, too. I’ve gotten great care at the VA (no, seriously… they have a bad reputation, and the infrastructure is ghetto as fuck, but the actual quality of care is great).

There’s also the USPHS, but honestly I’ve never actually met someone who joined or seen one of their facilities… I think they mostly do humanitarian stuff overseas?

Point being, we have the framework for it already. I could see the VA expanding it’s mission/coverage to spouses/families of vets, and use that as the baby step into coverage for everyone. Fun bonus: state law can suck a dick on federal facilities, so all the rednecks can write as much misogynistic legislation as they want locally, but Susie’s rights suddenly return the second she steps into federal property, even if it’s a hospital in the middle of Y’all Quaeda territory.

I’m not really worried about Trump specifically so much as the movement he’s unleashed. Cult 45 is going to lose their fucking minds when he finally dies… he could literally choke to death on Putin’s dick on live TV and it’d still be pitched as some kind of deep state hit job that merits retaliation. This shit doesn’t end with Trump.

I have an extension recommendation if you’re using Firefox (and if not, I’m sure there are similar ones for other browsers):

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/dictionary-anyvhere/

Makes a little popup when you double click a word with its definition; and you can even double click a word in that for a followup definition when necessary.

I use it all the time - 10/10.

…why are you getting downvoted for looking up a word??

Depends on how they progress. Smart doesn’t necessarily mean good.

They all act like morons, but especially for the ones on top, it becomes a question of whether they came into power by being just the right type of stupid; or are they just good at behaving like an idiot because that’s an effective way to manipulate actual idiots?

We have a tendency to be dismissive of them as -just- being stupid, but every time we give them the village-idiot pass, we’re making their strategy that much more successful.

Look at the harm Trump has caused - he wouldn’t get away with a tenth of what he’s done if he acted competently.

…honestly it’s basically the Darth Jar Jar fan theory - you can get away with doing all kinds of evil if you just act like an idiot while you do it.
