Paul Manafort deserves to die in prison for what he did in places like Ukraine and the Philippines.

Dismemberment may have been somewhat rare in Jedi Knight, but lightsabers were a one-hit kill on almost every enemy. Even against most of the Sith bosses, if you got good one hit past their defenses they would drop dead. I don’t think any game has done as well representing lightsabers as Jedi Knight.

The consolation prize is that this will be the first time a lot of people will be tuning in, and she will completely dominate the night. There will certainly be standout moments from each night that will be remembered and memeified. But the takeaway that will be discussed for a week or two will be, who won each night?…

He’ll be back. Twitch will do the calculation that the PR boost of a genuine perma-ban isn’t worth the lost cash of having him streaming. This will only prove there is almost no line these top streamers can cross without Twitch eventually letting them back online. Cash over principles every time.

Colossal was not at all what I expected it to be from the trailers, and that made it all the more impactful.

The giant testicles thing isn’t as big with incels as it is with a subset of the gay community. Some gay men worship masculinity, and they want giant balls you can see from behind like a dog.

While I can forgive someone for being on the wrong side of certain issues if they demonstrate a proper contrition, I dislike Sanders the more I hear him talk. I may agree on a lot of his policies, but he is a demagogue who has begun to believe the messiah mythology his more deranged backers have built around him.

Their mistake was in asking veterans and service members to provide stories that elevate and celebrate the Army as an institution. Memorial day is not a day for nationalistic flag waving, it is a sacred day for remembering the sacrifices of the fallen.

This is one of the many reasons I keep saying Biden is the weakest candidate to put against Trump. Too much history of supporting Trumpian policies, too much room for him to (rightfully) be called a hypocrite.

“Will we be able to finish it this time?”

I just can’t deal with The Sims’ price model. The base game is only like $15 to begin with, but the expansion are each like $40. It would cost something like $300+ to get all the expansions and official content packs. What you save by getting the base game for free is a tiny fraction of the overall price.

“Warehouse workers have absolutely no leverage because there isn’t any skill involved in their jobs.”

Don’t call this a “game”. This is just a different, modern implementation of company script that can only be used at the company store. It’s one of many fights that labor thought they’d finally won in the last century and are now having to fight all over again.

He knows the southern district of New York will send him to jail. The office is the only thing protecting him and he will do *anything* to keep hold of that office.

Demographically, 2016 and 2020 are the last years they have any chance at a presidential election. “Millennials” aren’t aging rightward like “Boomers” and “X-ers”, we’re aging leftward like the survivors of the great depression and WWI. For Trump to win in 2020 it will require a similarly tight electoral college…

It is a statistical fact that older people don’t change their minds. Throwing ad money and cold-callers and door knockers at people over 55 is not productive.

Again, nobody with any sort of understanding of history would think handing over economic control to a government is a good thing. Never is giving a government more power a good thing.

Every older voter you win over is worth two votes and every convincing of at least not voting for the other side is denying them a vote.

I think you might have an incredibly narrow definition of what socialism is.

Nobody with half a brain is the first, so.... you do the math.
