I have a friend who has been very anti-kid having his whole life. We are in our early forties. He has recently been starting to feel the weight of all the empty years ahead of him.

I understand why people are tired of this story, but I have to admit I can’t help being curious.

Abolish the filibuster and codify abortion as a right in federal law (lol)

I stopped in to a local food joint for lunch yesterday. I sat down to dig into a delish Italian beef sandwich when one of the employees turned on the TV behind me. It was tuned to Fox News. The crazy pouring out on a variety of subjects (including this one) was staggering. Obviously, Fox has always been bad but I…

I’m excited in general, but also post-TNG is peak Star Trek aesthetic and I am glad to see Lower Decks and this bringing it back. The uniform and bridge styles really pop.

Furthermore, this is the triumphant return of the Centaur-Class. A one off Kitbash from DS9. It has the indentations on the hull and the distinctive…

We won Roe and too many liberals called it job done and went home. Roe should have been the first step in putting this right into the constitution, not a one and done and then barely even defended afterwards. I’ve said for years that we needed constant action on this, because religious wacko groups have made…

Was born in Texas. Got my degrees in Texas. Met my wife in Texas.

Do they have to wear a seatbelt, because I just worked out a way around the abortion restriction.

I moved from New England to TX. The politics here are so far removed from anything based in modern reality or necessity. I think most of the political theater is in response to an influx of people moving into TX from other states. Native Texans are SO concerned about Californians turning Texas “blue” and wiping out…

It’s telling that in an attempt to create fetal personhood,  they did not go to anything really beneficial. Like, you want to call the unborn a person, then it is when child-support starts, it is when you can deduct them on your taxes, when you get the benefits for having a child.  Not... you get to ride in the…

How is he even a person people try to defend as a “good creator historically”. I’ve watched Chappelle’s Show... it’s shite.

It’s about as much effort as this bullshit deserves.

Another commenter who’s mad that the illegal version of a game is better than the legal version. Why the hell aren’t you mad about that?

You sure seem mad that someone is pointing out the illegal version of a game is better than the legal version. Instead of being angry at the author, you should PROBABLY be mad about that, instead. 

No, emulators are not used for piracy “99.99% of the time.” Nintendo itself uses emulators for its virtual console games. (Hardware emulation is literally what “virtual console” means.) GOG sells emulated games, Steam does too. Most “anniversary packs” of older titles are using hardware emulation. Hardware emulation…

Emulation does not equal piracy, dude.

You can buy the game and emulate it.

Do you not understand how emulation works? Or where roms come from? You can emulate without pirating. You can also both buy the game, and pirate it.

... No where is piracy mentioned. You are equating emulation with piracy.
