One hopes.

An atheist thinking that religious individuals are delusional isn’t bigotry,

I suppose it’s because I wasn’t a teenager when the term started gaining traction that I thought it an encouraging sign. Back when I was a kid, we were just called nerds or geeks (ironically, labels I much prefer over “gamer” these days).

Harsh, but fair. I often wonder if I just imagined a time when being a gamer just meant loving video games.

Since “Gamer” gate, and the general attitude “gamer” communities seem to have regarding social issues, I am less comfortable being counted among them. F*ck those guys. I am someone who…

I’m saying that Vindman was a whistleblower and operated within the kind of channels you are suggesting Woodward operate, however the end result was largely ineffective at creating any lasting change. And while Woodward is unlikely to be professionally harmed as Vindman was, Trump and the GOP would have had have…

Wanna take bets on whether or not Trump thinks he’s smarter than Nixon?
