Gentle nerd freak of the pacific northwest. All nation states are vermin.

  • Don't get irate, just pirate.

  • Sweet baby is cat Sweet baaaaaaby is cat Baby baby baby Sweet baby is cat!

  • Bullshit. What kinda of idiot would believe a lying nazi?

    The fascist death squads we built are murdering americans in cold blood, but if you make it easier for us to fake the next election we'll definitely leave you alone.

    Sure, very believable. 🙄

  • Woo, grasses! Let's hear it for C4 photosynthesis! 🎉

  • That has been shown to do absolutely nothing. And besides, trump hasn't been the one making decisions for a while.

    What we need to do is arrest most of the regime for their many openly committed crimes.

  • Stormy Daniels - who had first hand knowledge, so to speak.

  • tiny, deformed, cheeto toadstool from mario of a penis.

    As reputable sources have informed us.

  • Monopoly. Literally designed to be frustratingly unplayable to represent the frustratingly unplayable user experience of capitalism, but people insist on playing it anyway.

    AD&D 2e. Insists it's a game about exciting fantasy adventuring, then all the rules are about painfully slow tactical minutiae. The combat mechanics are taken from a game about modern naval warfare, hence bigger Armor Class means easy to hit. It's unclear why anyone thought ships with guns was a good model for medieval sword fighting. Entire sections of rules have to be ignored - hello encumberance - and gameplay regularly has to stop to look up charts, tables or niche rules like grappling.

    Screamball. Like ping pong, except the point goes to whoever screams the loudest during a volley. We made it up as teenagers. It was awful.

  • Generation Kill is a very watchable look at a recon unit in the lead up to the 2nd (iirc) iraq war. It's by the guy who did The Wire. Excellent dialogue, plotting and acting.

    It uses a soldier's eye perspective to examine the systemic issues in the military - casual racism, war crimes, adult diapers and the constant incompetence of officers all come up.

  • There was a hilarious study the other month showing that on r/conservative, 30-60% of posts on any given day are 2 posters, who posted every single day - except the day that ukraine strikes knocked out power in moscow.

  • That sounds like a reasonable and healthy attitude to take.

    I've started buying 2nd hand physical games, got a cheap record player, buy books from little bookshops, clothes from goodwill and don't shop online. Not ready for a dumb phone yet.

    I grew up in niave 90s with 'internet will set us free' thinking. But oligarchs turned the things i liked into poison, so i avoid drinking the poison as much as i can.

  • The fascists don't care about consistency or fairness. By definiton they're opposed to that.

    They will without a doubt block anyone else from doing exactly what they are doing.

    Killing multiple regime members on the court or expanding the court are the only two options if we want a supreme court that's capable of upholding the law.

  • I doubt there were that many voters who oppose project2025 but were swayed away from kamala by thinking it's not real.

    About 30% of us adults voted R. 30-35% is about the maximum support that fascism can muster. Voter suppression won the election, not any particular policy or lie.

  • They're fucking nazis and they're doing violent nazi shit.

    “ominous historical overtones” my ass. Call it what it is.

  • 50% of the population wasn't saying that, a widespread disinfo campaign funded by our corrupt oligarchs was spreading that talking point.

  • Affordability AND anti-corruption would be better.

    That would give them a mandate to go after regime insiders for their many openly committed financial crimes.

    But the Dems would rather let fascism win if the alternative is jailing the rich for their crimes.

  • Coprolite makes a great insult. I'm sure we can all think of some prominent fossilized turds.

    Of course real coprolites are wealth of information and a welcome find, unlikely the fucking coprolites who seized control of the US.

  • This style of writing predates streaming, though i'm sure it's more prevelant now.

    Plenty of pre-internet shows have characters ham-fistedly repeating or summarizing the situation after ad breaks, or telling rather than showing their feelings, or telling you what's at stake.

    Stupid characters who have to have the plot point explained to them in case the audience still hasn't gotten it are everywhere too, it's super common in sitcoms.
