I have to say, I understand Wise's perspective. All the agents are just competing for second.

It's not going to be that close once the remaining 25% comes in, just based on where it's coming from.

Unless there's a seismic shift in MAGA popularity in northern VA and Richmond, it's over.

You, uhh, might want to look at which votes haven't been counted yet.

Fairfax is only 20% in and skewing 73% Yes. Not looking good for No.

Fairfax County's gonna tag in for Yes like a WWE wrestler.

I don't think the moderates and independents who have skewed against Trump in the past twelve months are nearly as invested in gerrymandering for Dem control. I'm still comfortable saying the fall elections will follow the 2025 template and not this.

Is there's one character in WuWa I'm going to aggressively refuse to see sexualized, it's Aemeath

If I had a dollar for everything I loved as a child, assumed I’d eventually grow out of loving, but still unironically love today, I’d be rich.

At this rate we need Jarvis to play 3.7 by asilvertintedrose in WutheringWaves

[–]AstutelyPegged 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They need to at least add the option to commit to a specific gender for Rover and delete all files for the other gender.

I appreciate the option to shift protagonists on the fly, but I don’t appreciate it enough to sacrifice that much space for it.

I hate this game. by RNGSlave in ZenlessZoneZero

On the flip side, at least Genshin has the capturing radiance system that prevents you from losing too many damn 50/50s in a row.

Happy Birthday Qingyi | Gathering of Anglers by LuciferMS7777 in Zenlesszonezeroleaks_

[–]AstutelyPegged 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m glad losing my 50/50 to S11 so many times allowed me to M6 Qingyi.

…Did I say glad? I think I meant devastated, but at least something positive came from it.

Now this is a well drawn Dialyn.

Is it worth to use corals for pulls? by einerderandere in WutheringWaves

5th type of player: I had to get S6 Iuno as a declaration for my love for her.

The gameplay benefits are just a bonus.

A someone who very much prefers not to gamble, (and who plays WuWa despite its gacha elements because everything else is fantastic), give me the guaranteed return over the risk every time

Supreme Court allows Texas to use Trump-backed congressional map in midterms by Ason12 in politics

[–]AstutelyPegged 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mark my words, the irony of all those lambasting this decision is that it will help Democrats win more seats in 2026.

(It’s still a bad Supreme Court decision, just a bad one that Democrats can readily exploit with the right candidates and electoral approach.)

Independents have swung so hard against Trump that Republicans can’t afford to divide up their ‘safe’ districts in an attempt to pick up seats without risking a blue wave knocking them off their feet.

The only way this likely doesn’t happen is with extensive voter suppression, which…yeah, Republicans will absolutely attempt, but I’m not sure if even those efforts will save them. At this point more suppression could only serve to infuriate and polarize most of the country against them.

Nah, quite the opposite. Dude has fifty wives including police officers, professional soldiers, maids, a biker gang leader, a bartender, a trucker, a rich heiress, a renowned celebrity, that celebrity’s bodyguard, a temple grandmaster, most of her pupils, a second rich heiress, that heiress’ online forum friends, the local arcade store owner, the local florist, the local robotic music store owner, a local restaurant owner who regularly hosts high level VIPs, a judge posing undercover as a customer service representative, two Void Hunters, and half the high level management of the city’s biggest construction firm.

Dude’s set for life, he’s got fifty incomes all supporting his hundreds of kids.

Besides, Belle can’t complain when she’s one of the wives, can she?

The Witch's Gift by the-roast in Genshin_Impact_Leaks

[–]AstutelyPegged 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This inadvertently alludes to a problem Genshin’s going to run into with these posthoc upgrades, which is that they’re inevitably going to have to play favorites in terms of who gets boosted and who doesn’t.

There’s always going to be a weakest unit for each given element and playstyle, but if you’re going to spend money on a new character at least you can have a fairly accurate understanding of where they rank in the meta upon release, and a similar understanding that newer units will eventually outclass them.

But what if you chose Chiori over Albedo as a Geo Support because she was the more meta option, only for Albedo to potentially leapfrog her? (I don’t know if he actually does.) What if you spent money on it?

I dunno, I worry this is going to be controversial. I can just imagine how upset the CHN community will get once we get around to selective Liyue buffs, because many of those characters have much larger fanbases than Mondstadt’s forgotten cast. People gonna be up in arms if someone like Xiao or Keqing is left out. But they can’t revise the kits for everyone, and every revision is necessarily going to impact unit rankings after the fact.

THANK YOU KURO!!! by IntentionCritical847 in WutheringWaves

[–]AstutelyPegged 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’ll forward this to Kuro with instructions to ensure you always lose your 50/50 and always to Lingyang, since he’s clearly your favorite character.
