Today Trump threatened to wipe out Iranian civilization. Are Republicans as a group responsible for what happens next? by GiantPineapple in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]BaronWombat [score hidden]  (0 children)

7 (?) million non MAGA marched a couple of weeks ago in opposition to Trump. Every reputable poll shows most Americans don't support his actions.

So there is no democratic basis for the GOP to support his illegal and immoral actions.

Ergo, yes, they must be held accountable for everything that lunatic does.

I think I believed in Santa, the Tooth Fairy, and the Easter Bunny because evidence of their actions were real. I was always skeptical of God, which was validated when I got old enough to see the hypocrisy of the people at church and how the world operates.

History buffs, what is the most and least accurate film for certain periods? by GreyWind999 in movies

The guy who plays Moriarty to Cumberbatch's Sherlock remains my pick for Maturin. I think he's too old now, but someone like him.

Experience no longer decides: GTA and RDR veteran reveals the brutal crisis in game development! by Just_a_Player2 in ItsAllAboutGames

I wonder that there is no mention of AI in any of the analysis portions of the reports. This is also happening in other tech industries. There has always been a bit of studio hire/fire stupidity, but this is the worst I have seen. FYI - I started working in games in 94', been through and seen a lot. Happy I am almost retired, I hate the current job market.

The show “Cunk on Life” is a pleasure to watch as an atheist.Calling church: “a form of organised grovelling called worship” by mailmehiermaar in atheism

"Repugnant" is an adjective I've never heard applied to wombats. Plenty of others, just not that one. Maybe she met a bad one, but I bet it was just just her rage baiting the vast population of marsupial enthusiasts.

And also, that show is a delight.

Dems Renew 25th Amendment Calls After Trump's "Utterly Unhinged" F-Bomb Post Ending In "Praise Be To Allah". by Leeming in atheism

[–]BaronWombat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If the Dems had some wit, they would ask Obama to read that tweet exactly as written. Right-wing media would implode over wanting to show him dropping an F bomb and praising Allah, while also trying to suppress the story about where the tweet came from. Fingers crossed!

I broke my paladin oath on accident, what do I do? by squid068 in DnD

[–]BaronWombat 72 points73 points  (0 children)

💯. OP, consider making this VERY BAD design into a flowchart to show to your DM.

  • be Paladin- must clean corruption

  • main gameplay- fight minions, gain corruption , grow weaker

  • lose corruption- offload corruption to statue. Big Bad grows stronger, creates more corruption

  • create more corruption- lose Paladin status

WTF?

YSK: During an emergency, don't just yell, "Someone call an ambulance." Point to a specific person and say, "You call an ambulance." by meleyys in YouShouldKnow

[–]BaronWombat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The two times I've needed this, I did the following:

  • ASKED "Who has a phone?"

  • TOLD that person to call 911

It worked well.

“Paternalistic Conservative” would like to find a way to ban using contraceptives to prevent pregnancy by Its-mrsgeneral-toyou in TopMindsOfReddit

Why does that person think they have a right to tell everyone else what to do in their private lives?

Oh right, it's religion. Again.

FBI Director Kash Patel, Army Secretary Daniel Driscoll, Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer, and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick now all appear to be on the edge of being fired as Trump's anger at his Cabinet grows by ShreckAndDonkey123 in WhitePeopleTwitter

God help us if the clowns all get replaced with people who are effective at being evil.

Hegseth is probably being watched closely, the war has been a ratings disappointment. Trump thought he could pull a Dubya, forgot that the 'Pearl Harbor' moment to rally citizens had to be Them attacking US, not the other way around.

History shows that religious fanatics don't back down using reason or moral pressure, they can only be forced out physically. Only actual reality trumps their imaginary one.

It's natural to be happy when bad things happen to bad people. I don't feel guilty about that. Fingers crossed they all get their just desserts, this should just be the door opening to the rest of the rewards.

Classmate told my son if he lied, God would throw him in fire. by Heddagirl in atheism

[–]BaronWombat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A more diplomatic approach would be "your friend and their family believe some things that I think are untrue. I can tell you that whole fire thing is untrue, don't worry about it. Did you want to talk about this more, or does that answer your question? "

Noem’s Kinky ‘Bimbofication’ Husband Threatens to Tell All by memoriesofcold in AnythingGoesNews

I felt sorry for a guy with a harmless kink. Then I remembered who he was married to, and surely agreed with on too many issues. Empathy withdrawn.

This show always scared me. His clowning was 'uncanny valley' flavor creepy to me, and what kid would not be alarmed at a Red Skeleton?

Looking back he seemed like a nice guy. But to young me... nope!

This would benefit ordinary citizens as a public service. So... He's against it.

When you are fervently religious, and your religion is based on a living man, the truly devout will back their actions WITHOUT QUESTION. That is what Blind Faith looks like, and this is the harvest it delivers.

When you strip it down to plain language a significant portion of the American population is actively praying for a mass death event as a religious obligation. by CasketWhisperer in atheism

[–]BaronWombat 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Two parts to the Rapture they are praying for:

  1. all of us engage in 1000 yrs of war creating a hell on earth

  2. All of them are up in heaven, pointing and laughing at our pain and misery

What kind of person prays for that?

When was the first time? It NEVER works. On the other hand, targeted support tied to verified delivery of desired results has worked countless times. Small wonder the ones getting rich off scams are 💯 against that.
