Al Franken for president 2020. I just love how he uses logic and is asking questions about the shit going on.

The one that won was genetically modified. He’s really a Cheetocabra. Very rare!

I did not know Chupacabras were real until one ran for President and won.

This seems to really be missing the point Reservoir Dogs

Everything I’ve seen about this game has only filled me with loathing toward whoever thought it was a good idea.

They don’t send anyone. Luke just posts everything that Mineral Blu shoots and no one else. There are tons of professional photogs at just about any con, even the little ones. You would be surprised at the quality of cosplay at the small cons too.

“She’s going to self-guess herself and get herself killed or somebody else,” McMurray said.

How many of these people are doing any of the actual work to learn how to survive these disaster scenarios, though? All you ever hear about is people accumulating “stuff” to help them, not learning any of the skills that could save their lives and others. Were there booths at the con about dealing with simple (because…

There’s nothing inherently valuable about gold either (outside of some industrial uses) that means it would retain its buying power post-apocalypse. Gold maintains its worth only in the context of civilization that collectively values it, so this idea that it’s some kind of universal currency for the end times is…

That’s worse than wearing the shirt of the band you’re seeing perform.

Oh, I’m all for emergency supplies in stock. I live in hurricane country, after all, and I’d be a fool not to have some days worth of supplies in the house. But that convention--or the word “prepper,” for that matter--is not about that at all.

“How dare they send MY TAX MONEY to support destitute people! It should be going to pay for yachts and trust funds in the name of people who wouldn’t piss on me if I was on fire!”

MY SNOWFLAKES ARE MELTING MY SNOWFLAKES ARE MELTING

Same old BS. Nobody wants to pay for lazy people to do nothing, but you’re being led to believe that by the right-wing media. I want a society where if you work you make at least enough money to survive and if you have health issues that prevent you from working you’re not bankrupt and left for dead. It’s funny how…

I honestly can’t care about these fools. They believe anybody thinks enough about them to come after them way out in the Utah or Montana hinterlands? I mean, do they really think a gang of Hollywood elites is going to roll up from LA to take their beef jerky? Not likely. They are likely, however, to be attacked by…

Berlin is a fantastic town, but if you think well-meaning liberal wypipo in America are prone to clumsy racial insensitivity, whoah nelly. (Picture naively clueless + genuinely enthusiastic about what they perceive black culture to be + no idea that they were even embarrassing themselves.)

My expectation of a real post-apocalypse is that (assuming we don’t just all die within months of radiation sickness) we’d quickly form communities and help each other, rather than this sci-fi idea of kill-or-be-killed pockets of vigilantes.

They’re mostly conservatives, so even now before the apocalypse all they care about is “me and mine”. I think they actually look forward to a future where they can horde all the stuff and blast anyone that comes close with all the guns. So yeah, a post apocalyptic world full of people like that? No thanks.

But how are you going to power your mobility scooter after the fall?

If it’s not the environment, but prepping that gets these (mostly) very conservative people to care about alternative energy then I’m all for it.
