(as he should; it’s an election)

Those low information voters have always been there in the primary though, and they’ve always backed the establishment candidate, and the trick to being an outsider candidate with a chance in the primary is that you have to combine a simple, powerful message with a potent delivery (see ‘08 Obama) and when I look at…

I mean, it was no Frost/Nixon, but they were definitely harder on Biden than they were on Warren or Buttigieg. If I had to bet money on who they pick, it would be Warren.  But I guess we’ll find out in a few days!

Ahhhh, Old Grandad.

Kirsanow is a lot of things, many of them bad. Unfortunately those things do not include being inconsequential or white.

And, as white people are wont to do, Kirsanow framed his argument in the context of Martin Luther King Jr. White people love to quote King because he is a mythical figure who has been whitewashed by the very version of America that Kirsanow wants to perpetuate.

Yeah. For my money, the only interesting speed runs have always been “no glitch” runs.

I find the comments on articles about speedruns more interesting than actual speedruns.

I mean, it could be worse.  They could have had an option D that said “None of the above because Suzy was a slut for being in an alley drunk and wearing that skirt”

a bagel is supposed to be soft on the inside and have a snap to the crust. when you toast it, you dry out the interior and replace the snap with a crunch.

Yeah it’s funny how that story has sort of been forgotten. The Bros tried to latch on to narratives about it being fake or from a low level staffer only to find out that it was a script that got deployed across multiple early voting states.

And while Warren, like any politician running for president, is not to be automatically trusted—her claim of Native American ancestry being an obvious example of a documented falsehood

In addition to being homophobes, Cindy Jacobs and Lou Engle are complete wackos, even by evangelical standards.

That sentence is confusing the Member code of ethics with requirements on Officers and Directors of the association.

I think it can be a little bit more complicated if part of your job (formally or informally as a blogger, for example) is critiquing other author’s work.

As someone who’s read the books and played the games I think this is a fair take.
