White privilege run amok combined with pseudo-intellectualism that’s off the charts.

She is almost as reviled by them as a school shooting survivor.

I may technically responding to you Robb, but I am actually responding to your detractors.

No my article was not particularly flattering towards Tesla. Musk did this attempt on a whim and that is simply the wrong way to go about things. Especially things with this level of risk.

I think the initial stories about Elon’s poor planning and promotion of this (and the equally strange Laguna Seca laps that seemed like a last-second Plan B) were warranted.

One of the funnier things about this situation is that the 49ers guy in charge of getting this stadium built, Paraag Marathe, is on the board of directors of the latest attempt to bring decent governance to the sport of cricket in the USA, USA Cricket. It’s uh, not going well. Marathe was announced last August. Since

I was prescribed Percocet after an ACL repair and I remember feeling AMAZING! Like Jesus Christ! Is this what it means to feel HIGH??? Why isn’t EVERYONE getting this shit??? This stuff is GREAT for my chronic depression!!! I love almost EVERYBODY!!

His excuse, per CNN, was “I have the absolute right to declassify anything.”

He’s right, of course. The President is the final word on what is/is not released from classified materials.

The problem is that his engagement with this issue is going to start and stop with a Bronx-accented Prince Adam screaming “I HAVE THE

Ross Geller is one of the most toxic characters to have ever been on television, and we’re supposed to think it’s cute. Or at least funny enough for the entire show to have resolved around shipping one of the worst couples ever. 

I’ll be the first to hop onto the “Friends isn’t nearly as good as you remember” train, but I wouldn’t go so far as to say it was awful—well, not the first four or so seasons, anyway. It was a competently written with a charming and likable cast that was a clear cut above the Caroline in the Cities and Suddenly Susans

I think this is one of those times where it is okay to be offended, but maybe keep a check on the level of outrage. Otherwise you can start a chain reaction and eventually the whole thing explodes over social media, and you could be left dealing with the fallout for years. 

they should name the next one Moana :)

Confederate statues - “We need them! We need them as...uh...a constant reminder that slavery is bad! So we can learn from history or something!”

The thing is, you’re not hearing from whiny dad’s who “want to get to max skill rank in a competitive game.”

I don’t have to win to have fun. But if I feel like I don’t even have a chance, becuase I don’t have the time to grind, or to hone my skills in the game to a razors edge then it’s not the game for me.

There’s still one tiny flaw in your argument. I suck at PvP. I always have. But even I have my moments and can end someone’s 10+ kill streak, be it by luck, reflex, or cosmic alignment paired with a sneeze-related twitch of my trigger finger. Gear doesn’t equal skill.
And even then, some people are eternally cursed by

all I’m hearing in my replies are whiny dads who want to get to max skill rank in a competitive game while still only playing 2 hours a week and just don’t care to get better at something but want all the rewards of it anyway

I’m a dad and I don’t wrap my self worth up in my gaming abilities. I fucking love doing dad builds and I never thought to name it like this. It just means a comparative lack of fussing around for how much fun you can have playing a video game. I don’t spend hours in the character creator on an RPG, I spend five

With an incoming first child, 2 companies, 2 dogs, 2 cats, learning Russian, making music AND keeping myself in physical shape I cannot help but feel like this is something I have wanted, but was never knew existed.

Any Dad Build in D2 MUST include Thunderlord.

1) It’s easy to obtain (the quest is relatively simple, and very little grind)
2) Can clear the room of low-level PvE enemies in 1 mag or less
3) has the fastest time-to-kill of any machine gun in PvP
