I became a Chromebook convert a year or two ago when I got my hands on a Samsung Chromebook Pro. They absolutely have their limitations, but for me (someone whose workday is like 75-80% dealing in pretty simple documents and spreadsheets), it’s a perfect tradeoff of functionality for battery life and portability. I…

I’m going to be doing this with RDR2 at some point. I got probably 80-85% of the way through the game, then just... stopped. I loved the game, but I have very limited time for gaming now (job/child/etc) and for whatever reason, whenever I had those few free hours to play, I just wanted to play something else. Now it’s…

“I’m not prejudiced, a white male in this country has very few rights and they’re getting took more every day,”

This is SOP for Brady and various other NFL luminaries. To question them, however politely you do so, is to attack them.

The fact that this exact scenario hasn’t happened yet is what convinced me there was some sort of league-wide collusion against him. Like, nobody wants to take the heat from MAGA dipshits for making him their starter? Ok, fine, the NFL is full of paper tigers, that’s not surprising. But the fact that nobody’s even will…

Yeah, this is a school administration that, best case, is too cowardly and insular to let common sense get in the way of a poorly-written internal rule. Worst case the administration is aggressively racist. And reality is probably a fine blend. Their lawyer’s gotta be working a whole lotta hours right about now.

Licensing is stricter, traffic laws are stricter, and the culture is simply more orderly. That last one is obviously a subjective generalization, and I will not try to argue that every single German is more prone to following rules and cultural norms than every single American but... try jaywalking in an American…

That’s actually the playbook. Step three is “Rely on the fact that the country is full of partisan idiots.”

I’m not sure, and based on their comments I’m not sure they’re sure, but it basically looks like someone’s more or less trying to throw together an ad hoc commenter-driven Splinter replacement. The folks popping up in the comments are encouraging, in that they’re generally folks I enjoy reading.

Yeah, having no exposure to the books or the previous games before my first W3 playthrough, I was in the dark about the relationships, beyond a bit of light reading I’d one (primers on lore here and elsewhere). In some cases, I was trying to be more helpful than liberating, and in others, I really didn’t expect my…

Sometimes I think the only way to beat this is to play it to its hilt. Take Warren’s lead and fucking run with it. Like catching a teenager smoking a cigarette and forcing him to chain-smoke the whole pack.

Well, of course! The guy who was mercilessly raping children and threatening to destroy the careers of anyone who got in his way was white a clean cut throwback to days of old!  

Gah, this is disappointing, but probably inevitable. I’ll miss the comments of quite a few people in this thread, perhaps yours most of all. But this place shutting down will mean I’ll read less news and therefore spend a little less time having rage strokes on a daily basis, so I suppose that’s a good thing. I want…

I don’t remember those TRUE allies standing with us when we defeated the British and won our independence, so what good are they really?

“It’s so pathetic how weak these other people are when confronted. Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to abandon some of our critical allies to be slaughtered because a man was mean to me on the phone.”

Public support for impeachment after just two weeks is at levels it took five months to reach for Nixon’s impeachment. And Nixon didn’t have the Faux propaganda wing propping him up. I’m not going to start cheering until this motherfucker is dead and buried, but the last few days have looked very positive.

Nah. Assassination lets him off the hook too easily, and elevates him to martyr status. We’d have deep state conspiracy theories for two generations that’d make JFK look like Sesame Street.

A list of positions the American right has taken in the last few decades that isn’t dripping with hypocrisy or built upon double standards:

in my great and unmatched wisdom

Also turns out that nobody in this entire Trump circle has any right to say SHIT about Hunter Biden.
