Kiwami 2 apparently picks up on a lot of stuff plot-wise and gameplay-wise from 0. So now there’s 0's hostess club minigame and a side story dedicated to giving more closure to Majima and Makoto.

I think that’s giving them too much credit, and that the more likely scenario is that rather than being dumb oblivious and casually biogted white bros they’re just actively evil people who know what they’re doing.

Yeah but collusion with an outside power isn’t necessarily a huge deal in and of itself. The Clinton campaign sought oppo from Ukrainian nationalists who are arguably tied to Nazis and the *Bill* Clinton campaign both sought and secured financial support from China back in ‘96 that is arguably worse than anything…

He had chronic debt from failed businesses and was, by his own admission, terrible with money. That’s not a story. That’s a dead man being shitty with money.

I think we need to have a very serious conversation about the nature of collusion and what that collusion means, what influence it actually had, etc.

I’m sorry but I think you’ll find that that’s not a sufficiently serious or pragmatic proposal, and furthermore, ICE has a mandate from multiple congresses and presidencies to carry out this bloo blee bleah blah blah FUCK

e: Was thinkin’ of Hobby Lobby, disregard.

Yeah, voting enthusiastically for the candidate who said we needed to be way harder on undocumented kids was way better than being a ‘Bernie Bro’ who... *checks notes* reluctantly voted for her in the general by an unusually large margin (much larger than Clinton voters in ‘08).

ICE is less than twenty years old and started as security theater, and you fell for it!

WRONG AND STUPID.

Wait, so you didn’t clue in when he lectured the boys about the overlapping train systems in the city and their incompatible tracks and switching systems?

That’s my immediate reaction too- the overarching case in the first season was Veronica trying to figure out what happened the  night she was date-raped. That’s not really an all ages storyline.

I’m really hoping that the characters outlast the imprint- the current version of Cave, Mother Panic, the new additions to the Doom Patrol, the new Shade... So good.

That is horrifying but somehow not even remotely surprising. Fuck that guy.

Hey! Actual gay man checking in. While I haven’t lost a partner to AIDS, I do know people that have, and I think characterizing Bash’s entirely understandable spiral as an “asshole phase” is really shitty. He’s probably in not unjustitfied terror over how long he’s going to live and whether or not he’s positive.

Note to self: conspire with other robots to push Evan Waters down the the stai- Oh hey Evan, What’s up?

Do you have stairs in your house?

Do you have stairs in your house?

Let’s be honest: Bash fucked Florian, but probably never while sober. All of a sudden it became real when Florian took off, and now it’s even realer and even worse: Bash has to admit that he’s a fag. And that he might be positive. And that’s pretty dire in the eighties because it’s not just a more repressed time, it…

I’m starting to become afraid that immigration has become like defense spending in that it’s become an issue where the democratic answer (IE under Obama, Clinton if she’d won, etc) is for things to get worse slower rather than to improve them.
