Yes, thank you. If the Electoral College is the specific reason that someone as wildly, dangerously unqualified to be President as Donald Trump gets into office, then at that point there is no reason to have an Electoral College. It was created very specifically to prevent this exact problem. Ironically, it was…

I think a lot of it stems, honestly, from the fact that the most dedicated lower-class conservatives are also deeply religious. And especially with Republicans making so blatant their religious views, people like Racist Grandma attach to the GOP and treat the beliefs they espouse with the same devotion that they treat…

Ultimately, however, this is exactly what the Electoral College was designed to do (I mean, aside from prevent Northern States from making slavery illegal in the early elections)... prevent a popular, but completely unqualified person from becoming President. If we’re still using the highly un-democratic Electoral…

The article actually mentions that the Dev Kit can’t play retail games.

I remember a comedian once joking about it... basically the main joke was “women have all the power, because they have all the vaginas”. There’s definitely a perception among some guys that women can get anything they want, because they can give and/or withhold sex, and supposedly men are powerless against that.

It’s one of those things where the phrase is used by a decent number of normal people just dealing with something they find stressful, but there’s a small, vocal section of that group who is extremely hateful and dangerous. It’s sort of like how not everyone who identifies as a “Gamergater” was a dangerous misogynist…

Pokemon hasn’t really used the classic “asshole rival” since Gold and Silver.

I already had a 55-inch TV from Fry’s I bought at their Labor Day sale for around $350, so there wasn’t much to get my interest on Black Friday itself. The only thing I ended up getting was a Galaxy 3DS for my wife, and it wasn’t even really on sale, it’s just the particular version she wanted.

It’s one of those things where most news sources will interrupt broadcasts and everything out of respect for Castro’s legacy, but it’s not something that’s going to be brought up a lot. You’re not likely to get many people saying “Oh my god, I can’t believe it!” and debating how it happened or if it was staged or…

Depends on the item. When I was working there still I think they called it “guaranteed in-stock”, which was for one of the middling items... a good deal, but not something super impressive. I think that year was a 40" TV at a good price and if the store ran out of their stock they distributed vouchers. But the main…

We always had at least one person leave during their break and not come back on Black Friday. Lol some people just couldn’t handle it, and nobody ever blamed them.

Doorbusters are the worst. it’s a deal that maybe 10 people can take advantage of. I worked at Wal Mart and was put in charge of distributing a poorly advertised doorbuster where people didn’t realize we only had 10 in the store and I had to spend pretty much my whole night dealing with angry people who felt they were…

Alternatively: Stay home and order everything you’re looking for online.

I thought it was a bit weird too, but I kind of appreciated them going their own way with the fairy designs... most fan stuff I see interprets the fairies as looking more like classic fairies (tiny girls with wings) and while I’ve got no problem with that, I think it’s still fun to see other versions.

Wait... are you saying you deliberately used the remake art to hammer even further just how unpleasant this banquet is?

Trump makes simple statements like that as though it clears him of wrongdoing, but continues to do the things he says. He says, when pressed, that he does not support the alt-right, but he’s done nothing to actually dissuade them, and in fact hired Steve Bannon, who is practically the face of the Alt-Right. He says he…

I’m definitely hoping for the electoral college to elect hillary into the position... deep down, I think Trump is hoping for the same thing. He’d be able to still say that he “won”, he’d push the narrative that the system is rigged against him, but he wouldn’t have any of the actual responsibilities that he seems to…

It’s not so much the people who voted for Trump that could be considered a “coup”, it’s the lawmakers who make it difficult for groups who would vote against their party... basically using the highly exploitable Electoral College to force a victory.

Well, if nothing else the article states that the gym system has been revamped. It seems each of the “Trials” (as they’re calling them now) can take on a variety of gameplay styles (although they still culminate in a battle with a leader). I think the core gameplay of Pokemon is solid enough that itw o uld actually be…

Personally, just the knowledge that the HM system has been ditched is enough to get me extra hyped for this game
