I would’ve rather had her be a female clone of Palpatine, stolen away by researchers and raised as their own. That way, you get to have your cake and eat it too. Her parents are nobody both figuratively and literally, and she still has a familial connection to Palpatine to explain both why she’s so strong in the Force…

Eh, it’s a loophole that only a fraction of a fraction of a percent of people ever do anything wrong with. We wouldn’t say people with foreign drivers licences can’t rent a car if one person with malicious intent drove through a crowd or turned it into a VBIED. I’d say the bigger loophole is stop training military…

Not haha funny, interesting funny. And if they really had a problem with Obama doing it, Congress could’ve taken back the power they’ve ceded to the Executive over the last 75+ years. But that would involve work and actually having to be responsible for the conflicts our country engages in. Did some people bitch? Yes,…

Discovered? Nah, they learned that during the Obama administration. I find it funny that people are so up in arms about Trump using drones to kill a military adversary in a conflict zone we’re operating in, when he got the idea from Obama using drones to execute American citizens extrajudicially in countries we aren’t…

I don’t disagree, but to what end? Even if Iran declares war on the US, which I personally find unlikely, they won’t be able to attack us directly. Sure, they can invade Iraq and attack our forces there, or make the Persian Gulf a hellscape of mines and explosive equipped speedboats, but all that will do is turn…

No, because trying to overlay the causes of WWI on to current events grossly oversimplifies the causes of WWI and indicates a barely surface understanding of how those events came to be.

I’ve said to several people before that it’s puzzling to me they impeached Trump for what they did, when it seems that multiple emoluments clause violations would be much easier to prove and far more black and white than whether there was any (I hate this fucking phrase now) quid pro quo.

One point, China may have a larger Army, but their Air Force and Navy are hilariously small by comparison. The US has the world’s biggest Navy and the two biggest air forces between the Air Force and Navy. Having a million man army means fuck-all if you have no way to move them anywhere. Not to mention that it is in…

Was I the only one bothered by the fact that Kylo Ren flew to Exogol at the end of the movie in an Imperial-era TIE fighter that not only somehow survived the fragments of the Death Star crashing down, but doesn’t have a hyperdrive? Like, they could’ve at least had him flying one of Vader’s TIE advanced fighters, or…

Nobody who has suffered under Communism, or you know, has read a history book, thinks Communism is a good thing. It’s just old burnt out hippies, dumb Millennials who think they’re oppressed, and actual violent revolutionaries who think Communism works. Ask the ghosts of 100 million people who died under its heel in…

Every once in a while the commenters at Jez do surprise me, they aren’t all as “woke” as the writers think. And while there’s a few people I miss seeing post over on Splinter and interacting with, honestly my mental health is much better now that I’m not constantly trying to argue against tankies and…

With Splinter and Deadspin shuttered, the worst of the aggro progressives are spreading out to the other sites. Better pray to whatever god you believe in and even the ones you don’t that they never shut down The Root.

Frontier is a garbage-tier ISP owned by Verizon. I regularly deal with all the big ISPs in a business capacity, Frontier is the absolute worst. Even when they admit they have a problem in a given locality, they’ll still try to blame it on the interior wiring.

Taxes won’t kill you, but the cops they send to arrest you for not paying your taxes sure as hell will. This is a bit of hyperbole obviously, but only a bit.

I already have Pokemon Sword and a regular Switch, but I’d be lying if this deal wasn’t tempting just so I can get them all without relying on trading with others and get myself a Masuda Method Ditto.

You might want to if you plan on playing on Supernova difficulty, unless you just don’t care if a particular companion dies permanently.

I watched a YouTube video of someone who used it to spawn over 5000 guns and not one legendary, so either the chance is infinitesimally small or it just doesn’t drop anything higher than a purple.

Does it rhyme with gruel, by chance?

David, the body on that thing is toast. A tranny/ tranny and engine swap is the only thing that makes sense at this point. Save that and swap the interior bits that are still good into something that isn’t more air than metal where structure is concerned and have a proper, decent, rigid Jeep for once.

Don’t forget Dallas is also the first police department to use a drone to blow up a suspect in a crime. The Dallas shooter was cornered and rather than try to talk him down or apprehend him, they just sent in a robot with a bomb on it and executed him.
