Hard to disagree on those tower defense missions. Though as I recall it didn’t take long to basically eliminate them once you took full control of the city and started assigning trainees to the various districts, alongside of standard things you could take as you mosey around the city to reduce your notoriety.

Unless you’re a corporation looking to park a mountain of cash in a tax haven.

PSL has transitioned from beloved seasonal treat to Internet meme to subject of performed divisiveness to what it is now: a fact of life as boring as a store selling Christmas decorations in July.

Me too, Brendan.

I really take the entire Ezio trilogy together, including Revelations, as my favorite part of the series.

Half?

Eh, getting those beautiful mod screenshots on a stable setup requires a lot of time investment.

That’s a fair point, though what I would say is the most outlandish thing is that someone who would one day be a Presidential candidate was having a private discussion at all with a guy like Billy Bush (e.g. the Presidential candidate was a b-list celebrity) and that a person who would one day be a Presidential…

Yes, he does need more than his base to win, but with the release of the video, before he can contemplate voter outreach he has to make sure that the base of voters gets out to vote for him in the first place. As I’m sure Donald could tell you, you can’t build a high rise if your foundation and support beams aren’t…

That wasn’t “awful”. You think that strategy was targeted at winning over people like you and me?

An interview with Billy Bush brought down a Presidential candidate, and he got suspended for it.

I wonder what impact the hurricane had on the bottom line?

Yeah but I would say that’s one of the ways you can try to salvage it. I mean, Trump’s image can’t be fixed with anyone left of center, so the fact that this is offensive to anyone who is at all feminist for reasons other than crass opportunism doesn’t matter.

Yeah, her aloofness is probably about as good as we could expect to get from a kid raised with that much privilege and with such a horrific example to learn from in her father.

Oh I agree, but you can see it in how Ivanka and hubby Jared have tried repeatedly to steer Trump into being less awful on the campaign trail that she cares deeply about their brand.

Ivanka Trump is definitely not the “normal” one. She’s a bit more self-aware and has slightly more modern sensibilities than daddy but she’s every bit the branding opportunist that he is.

Backer was fired in 2007, but VA still wrote him three letters of recommendation that landed him the job at Wesleyan, where he oversaw student sexual misconduct hearings.

Yes, this exactly. Which is why it is frustrating that Valve is to proud to learn a lesson from Riot games and allow a surrender option in a game like DotA 2 where voluntarily bailing has negative consequences.

I’ll probably celebrate by, when I get home, clicking on Fox News for a moment, horking, and then flipping over to listen to Erin Burnett and watching Kayleigh Mcenany and Angela Rye stare daggers at each while Gloria Borger puts on her best “I’m not going to kill these other idiots even though I should for the sake…

This is sort of like being mad that the captain of the Titanic got so mad at you that they sent you back to the mainland in a lifeboat just as the voyage was getting underway.
