thank you! and what the fuck is with everyone defending this guy?

Another poor white rural scion made good over here: I think the problem with that book is that it takes the learned helplessness that absolutely exists and works to divest it of any origin other than personal choice. If we’re talking about internalizing self-hatred and low expectations because you were born into…

See also: independent Facebook groups of your city. We’ve got two. One is vehemently far-right and basically racist and classist as hell out in the open and the other is central right.   

Whenever someone posts on Ring about a stolen Trump sign, I post, “I thought this was America! Land of the free!” The response is always about personal property, and I respond, “This is what tyranny looks like. Do you know who else was against theft? Hitler."

I’m a white suburban housewife, and starting fights with old white dudes on Nextdoor is one of my hobbies.  

This is why I love games that are not AAA, but come close. They usually price their games between $20 and $40, their DLC expands the game about 50%, their gameplay is unique and story well written. And their games usually run maxed out at 4k because they didn’t try to be the next CoD.

I always enjoyed the West Wing, but I have to agree with Oliver Willis, who has been complaining on Twitter for years now that TWW turned liberals into a bunch of weak Pollyannas who think that just being right will convince people and win the day. Even when the West Wing was still on the air the Republicans had…

Remember when Aaron Sorkin basically said that progressive democrats need to “stop acting like young people”, called fighting for trans rights a “Republican talking point”, and said we should be more worried about “economic anxiety of the middle class”? 

Red Letter Media’s whole thing is commentary! Movie reviews and discussion, plus some fun approaches to long forgotten “films”. They’re uniquely entertaining people. This clip stood out because after watching every Resident Evil movie in a row, with all of them somewhat worn out by it, this ridiculous scene happens…

OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!

Robots can’t do your job, but fish can!

Lamenting? I said the CC was pretty good baring some weird specific choices. Beyond that, this article is saying “Wow since everyone’s making characters that look like themselves, maybe we should ensure that everyone has that ability.” Larian’s doing the bashing, not me.

Esports is doing fine, my negative friend. This is a small market for a relatively ancient game that has been on the backslide for quite some time.

LOL. I love it. There are a bunch of others that would be great also, but I like this. If Smash is “Videogames: The Game”, then minecraft deserves it’s representation.

The continuing parade of “educated” would-be debaters that think that currency exchange only exists under capitalism.

I really enjoyed the first game, but for some reason Endless Space 2 never grabbed me the same way.

I apologize for I should not have mocked the modern day Jonathan Swift, Colin Jost. As penance for my sins I will force myself to watch Kate McKinnon dressed as Hilary Clinton singing Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah on repeat until I find SNL funny again.

hah. a flaming trashcan of a show.
to be fair, the asylum retains a lot of resonance for lgbt persons today.

Well, no. The first one was legitimately good. It’s like finding a frozen pizza brand that’s great once, and then the next one you get, instead of pepperoni it’s dogshit. Now, I’m not expecting my pepperoni pizza to be filet mignon. But I’m expecting it to not be dogshit.
