This kind of response could only come from someone who has never dealt with an addiction of their own—or either does not know any addicts, or has no empathy for them whatsoever because, “It’s easy for me, so it should be easy for you.”

If that’s your thought process, then I ask you: should things that are easy for…

Yeah, what’s up with those addicts, unable to control their behavior? It’s almost like it’s a disease that they can’t easily control or something.

The only people that loot boxes etc... ‘prey’ on are those who are incapable of delaying their own gratification.

They are going to have a hard time getting him up to speed, what with learning the playbook, line calls and how to catch a Salmon down at the market all by Sunday.

They show Loki is posing as Odin... how is that not showing it?

It’s pretty clear at the end of Thor: The Dark World that Loki has taken over and is disguised as Oden.

And trump didn’t support shit. He said he was going to do something, then forgot or blew it off and only followed through because he was busted. Fuck trump and everyone of his racist shit bag supporters.

Came here to say similar. Describing Canzano as an “old-school beat writer” for Oregon State is just patently false. Like, I don’t know what the genesis of that notion would even be. I don’t even think he was a beat writer when he was with the Mercury News like 15 years ago.

When he first came to Portland he shook up the scene in a good way, by actually having a take about stuff (stated opinions can be frowned upon in the Passive-aggressive Northwest). But the moment he brought a sample cup to Damon Stoudamire was his shark jump and he’s been pretty loathsome since.

I have no opinion on this story, but I live in Portland and Canzano is trash. Also, he’s not a beat reporter - he’s a columnist. Everything he writes should taken with a huge grain of salt.

It’s like the guys who were upset about the last couple of Star Wars movies because the villains seemed too much like their favorite politicians...If the bad guys in a film franchise that is thirty years old seem like the kind of guy you like, you’re probably on the wrong side of history.
