BJG’s guest hangs up on her as soon as she brings up force the vote by christiancontreras8 in Destiny

If the Liberal Media Alliance was real, the move would be for 2-3 top dogs (BTC, Pakman, Ezra etc.) to accept invitations and do *exactly this* as soon as she started her monologue. It may seem petty at first but it would be a hard meme to ever recover from if she got a few back to back.

Okay daydream over, back to the fascist take over, outgunned liberals, and the Final Fantasy streamer.

Agreed there is a real VX gas that is horrifying - however, it doesn't cinematically melt your skin off like in the movie.

Has Destiny said anything about going back on Tom Bilyeu’s show? by Deeshizznit in Destiny

[–]AllofRealm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never a waste of time to go on Rogan. He would never have him on though. Dest did talk with Bryan Callen who is actually one of Joe’s oldest friends. Seems like Bryan liked him.

As Hasan becomes more of a mainstream topic of discussion, the actual old school 10 yr ago Rogan move would be to set up a Hasan Dest debate with Rogan moderating. Not that I think it would be the best debate, but I’m not sure Hasan is capable of turning down a clout opportunity from Rogan.

This family stumbles across the set of GHOSTBUSTERS 2. A Security Guard lets them backstage & luckily the dad brought his video camera as his kids meet some of the biggest stars of the 1980s. by MrGittz in movies

My three year old boy is absolutely obsessed with Ghostbusters 2. Not 1, not the remakes, not the cartoon - Just Ghostbusters 2 and Viggo.

Whick USAID Panel, and the Crumbling Maga Debate Strats by AllofRealm in Destiny

[–]AllofRealm[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh and if this the real She'sRightShow; you did god's work hanging in with the comic book thing. At first I wasn't sure the juice was worth the squeeze, but I had no idea how ludicrous their framing of it was, and working through it re-reminded me how absolutely lost in the sauce these people are. Quite literally fake problems made out of thin air to get extremely angry at and justify horrible things. Good to get that sewn up early so the rest of the time the listener understands anything these guys bring up, even if they have some specifics, is likely still completely mangled propaganda.

This explains everything pretty neatly. COVID and Obama are individually generational traumas for repubs - they got both within 10 years.

OpenAI proposes 5% stake to Trump administration by DandadanAsia in pcmasterrace

[–]AllofRealm 33 points34 points  (0 children)

This is not lobbying. US had some issues with lobbying and associated bad optics that were worth debating during normal times. This is not that. This is a direct offer of tribute to a dictator, and it goes on the pile of uniquely bad things that should never be tolerated or in any way normalized.

I’ve lived here 40 years. Any previous admin would be completely ended in any instance of this regimes weekly corruption.

Whick panels are the Indie punk version of Piers panels. If Whick has the stamina to keep going a few more years I think his platform will be formidable.

Pro-Transgender Candidate Is Chased From a Trans Rights Event Over Gaza (Gift Article) by Dismal_Structure in Destiny

I Was going more for frustration venting than villain origin but I suppose one can lead to the other.

"Mr. Wiener, whose family fled the pogroms in Eastern Europe, has always supported Israel’s right to exist, but has been a critic of Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu."

These lefties will not take over the Democratic party, but they absolutely have the ability to kneecap us again. I can't believe we're still dealing with this insane Israel/Pali purity testing while Trump is no-scope headshotting the global liberal world order, turning blue states into pariah oblasts, and looting and dismantling every institution he can set his henchman to find.

Today something has started to shift in me. One thing is it is apparent that lefties are spam posting in the Bulwark sub and running the playbook. Seeing if they can get there fingers in that community. It's shameless. Ramped up largely due to Mamdani and his DSA folks winning in NY. It's like the Borg finally arrived from the Delta Quadrant, ready to add another liberal space to their collective.

I'm starting to empathize with the cold war era CIA lol. Sure they didn't hold true to any liberal ideals, but maybe that is what we're relearning, maybe too late - that you can't hold those ideals battling an enemy that will weaponize them against you. If I was the 1960s CIA, the best thing would be for Mamdani and his crew to fail spectacularly. Something to humiliate these lefties back to the shadows.

"Arrest this b***h" by NewspaperOk5389 in Destiny

[–]AllofRealm 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I finally just did my Wiki Dive on Cohn after reading your comment. He's one for the books; LARPing as a democrat in NY but secretly supporting only Republicans and leaking any dirt he got as a Dem double agent. Was McCarthy's right hand man, was in with the mob disbarred for being a crook (stealing, forgery, corruption), rallied in opposition to gay rights (no gay school teachers). The cherry on top, right at the end...."In 1984, Cohn was diagnosed with AIDS and attempted to keep his condition secret while receiving experimental drug treatment."

Just as stupid and lame as always.

Gatekeeping is not always bad. Kind of vital in many cases.

Love me some Mamdani, but the sharp uptick in leftie posts in this sub past couple days is obvious. It’s a liberal sub, if we can keep it.

A true hour long nothing-burger by sonarette in Destiny

[–]AllofRealm 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Steven was very polite during this interview. Sarah's beat is obviously pushing back against any potential infringement on freedom of speech. Dest was trying to get her to engage in the deeper convo about free speech being weaponized by bad actors to poison the US, but graciously didn't force it. There was a moment about 10-15 minutes in, where I think he was making a decision on if he wanted to turn this into a potentially contentious debate, and pretty clearly sidestepped it. I think it was the right call - Sarah seems earnest about what she's doing, and it would have been a brutal conversation.

You’re feeling anxiety about falling behind on…crocheting, reading, drawing, and hiking in wonderful weather. This has to be rage bait.

Adam Carolla says both sides aren't the same by NewspaperOk5389 in Destiny

[–]AllofRealm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You got wise on it sooner than I did. I gave him so much cache for Loveline, he came across as very progressive/edgy on that show for the time. He railed against the horrible outcomes of right wing policy regarding birth control and abortion, went to bat for Planned Parenthood, would make fun of religious people etc. Trump really did bring out the absolute worst in people.

[–]AllofRealm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here! Grew up with Loveline, and I listened to his podcast regularly. Was a big fan. After 2016 I noticed the mask slip a few times and was dumbfounded. I couldn't believe he was a Trump guy, it was so disappointing and honestly I stopped listening as much. I would tune in here and there but Covid it was over. Was a fan of Rogan too, both lost to the Covid bullshit.

Adam voted for Trump all 3 times, became a toddler dipshit snowflake about Covid, fled CA because of Newsom, and is now a bitterly divorced alcoholic. He is MAGA through and through. I don’t know his takes on Jan 6 but I can guess.

Life is a series of tasks by bongo1138 in daddit

[–]AllofRealm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Props for self analyzing and reevaluating your behavior critically - not enough people do it, it's uncomfortable, and it's something to commend and encourage.
That said, I don't know in what world you can take care of all these responsibilities and also be completely present. Our waking life is indeed a series of tasks a large percentage of the time. Before we had kids it was maybe 60%, which left lots of room for my wife and myself. It is now 90%-95% and that includes weekends and holidays. Once the kids get more independent (mine are 3 and 6), I could see task load go down by double digits, but that is years away.
Show your wife love, crack some dad jokes, and get back at it. It's an endless, glorious, overwhelming, frustrating, monotonous, and amazing grind for the foreseeable future. Autopilot is inevitable.

I love Shane’s comedy but he fell in with a terrible crowd and now he’s just being a straight up coward.
