This is peak pearl-clutching.

Always has been. He’s Scalia without the intellectual fig leaf.

It starts with Roe and Casey. They’ll return abortion to the states and create a patchwork quilt of laws that will result in chaos and a body count of desperate women who will be forced to turn to back-alley providers. The next time they have power, they’ll push for national abortion bans, or bans at 6 weeks or 15…

The majority position on abortion is complicated, because it includes people that want it more restrictive but still legal. The question is, where does that point flip their support? That’s something we’re collectively not sure of yet.

I think it’s a little different.

There are two ways to get people to vote: inspire them, or scare them.

I agree that there were the bones of a great game in Anthem, anchored by the flight mechanic. It brought a third dimension to a genre that has lived on a 2d plane for as long as I can remember.

I was fortunate to come from a family with the resources to pay for my college education, and graduated without any debt.

You know, once upon a time I felt like Sarah Palin was the bottom of the barrel, and how spectacularly she flamed out at the national level would convince the GOP that they were headed down a path of electoral irrelevance if they kept putting stupid people in positions of power.

The benefit of Hunters in GM wasn’t just pure invisibility - it was also the damage resistance buff from Heart of the Pack, with it’s high uptime.

I admittedly haven’t played with the new Void changes much yet, but the 1 viable build Hunters had in true endgame content - Grandmaster Nightfalls - was Omnioculus, which was predicated on making you and your team invisible, granting increased damage and damage resistance, and having a high uptime. As I understand…

None of this is at all surprising. They’re trying to build Gilead, complete with a “Lol, women are things.” mindset.

Politicians talk a lot about “third rail issues” - specific issues that are so toxic to try and address that even suggesting doing so will get them kicked out of office. Good examples are basically anything to do with Social Security or Medicare.

So after burning through a ton of Destiny 2 over a period of a couple weeks, tackling some of the game’s more difficult challenges, and finding myself both with a lack of Vault space and a desire to keep grinding, I decided to go back to my previous MMO crush, Star Trek Online.

It’s called “creative resuse”, and professionals in every industry do it.

As a Battletech fan that had to put up with Harmony Gold’s Robotech and Macross-related bullshit for literal decades, I really wish some of these companies would realize that collaborating with content creators, licensing their works outside of Japan, and embracing a more expansive view of fair use only helps them in…

If I had to guess, it’ll be Kentaji Brown Jackson. Public defender, clerked for Breyer, Harvard BA and JD, and nominated for Garland’s seat seemingly specifically to put her in a position for SCOTUS should a spot open up.

I’m a simple man, with simple tastes.

No. Bungie bought themselves out from Microsoft, and bought themselves out from Activision. They’re self-publishing now, so this deal doesn’t affect them.

“but is he in any way qualified to be president?”
