I remember going to a cabin with some friends and playing one of those icebreaker games with a deck of cards full of “thought-provoking” questions. I got something like “what would you do with an infinite supply of money?”
My response? I would positively haunt Mitch McConnell until the day he died. I would hire any and every person needed to completely saturate that goblin’s life with fuckery. He would lose all faith in everything, all sense of safety. I would build teams, departments, and institutions dedicated to knowing his every move and subverting his will at Every. God. Damned. Turn.
His eyeglasses would disappear daily. Every haircut he got would fuck his shit up. Every pizza he ordered would be a box of spiders. There wouldn’t be a bite of food crossing his lips that didn’t have pee in it, or worse. He would shit himself in public because every restroom within a mile would be occupied, blockaded, or on fire. I would never injure him irreparably or kill him. In fact, I would ensure he was as healthy as possible. I would want to prevent him from escaping for as long as possible. I would be the ruin of his joy.
VR is going to win this for me multiple times over. Half Life: Alyx; Resident Evils 7, 8, and 4; Pavlov; The Exorcist: Legion, A Chair in a Room: Greenwater; Batman: Arkham VR; the list goes on.
The answer to all of this is simply that The Dark Knight Rises is an inexplicably terrible movie in nearly every conceivable way. It’s terrible in a vacuum but as a follow up to The Dark Knight, it’s inexcusably stupid and bad.
With current sales, the AnkerMake line is quite inexpensive and my experience with the M5 has been incredible. No 3D printer is truly no-hassle, but I think this is as close as it comes. Tons of QoL features like auto bed leveling, magnetic PEI plate, streaming video, and so on. It’s the closest thing I’ve ever seen to plug in and go as far as 3D printers go (some very easy assembly required though).
Which is why it’s a big ol’ four year hourglass for Republicans to make elections irrelevant. That is 100% their plan because while Trump is a verifiable moron, the scum attached to him aren’t stupid.
If you get evil, you hope for stupid evil. That was Trump term 1. This time there’s a LOT of smart evil along for the ride.
You forgot the part where all the competent military personnel have OTHER jobs to do that they can’t do once they’re fired, so the entire US military goes to shit and Trump says to Putin, “What now, daddy?”
Bluesky is very left leaning which I'm not sure I like. An example, the other day there was a thread about using blocklists and a user said they are silly because you have to trust the creator of that list. Another user said talk like that will get you blocked, many people agreed with the second user. That culture worries me. BTW I agree with the first user.
Some people just want to watch the world burn.
