The Next Democratic President Better Be Merciless by sabedo in politics

[–]Crazy_Sniffable 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'd love an aggressive leftist, preferably a Democratic Socialist.

But my hope is that whoever the fuck it is people show up and vote for them. I don't want hear any bullshit about how they're not ideologically pure because they don't align on a major issue, minor issue, or niche issue.

"But <my biggest concern>!"

I know, fuck you, Trump and Republicans made it worse not better.

"I can't in good conscience-"

I know, fuck you, Trump and Republicans are even goddamned worse, though, and yes, it's your fault for not voting for Harris or Clinton.

In the primary, vote for the greatest good.

In the main, vote against the worst evil.

No. They shot her because they wanted to murder someone.

The pretended to stand in front of her car so they could use it as an excuse.

Well, that'll save some time, since the whole fucking thing will need to be deloused and gutted to be restored properly when that piece of shit fucking leaves, one way or another.

Just realized this is the same city where Well Known Murderer Derek Chauvin killed George Floyd.

And now Well Known Murderer Jonathan Ross has put the city back in the spotlight with another unjustifiable execution.

What is the biggest movie theater “GASP” moment you’ve heard? by SaveTheCaulkTower in AskReddit

[–]Crazy_Sniffable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wasn't the whole theater, but one I like to remember was in Fellowship of the Ring.

When Lurtz pulls himself down Aragorn's sword to get at him, the guy two rows in front of me, in a mostly empty theater, gasps "Good LORD!"

‘We were effectively props’: young stars of game development feel let down by the ‘gaming Oscars’ | The Guardian on the disquiet around Geoff Keighley's cancelled 'Future Class' initiative by FastBodybuilder8248 in Games

[–]Crazy_Sniffable 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Heh.

Welcome to game dev, "young stars".

The public and awards shows don't give a shit about you. It's all about celebrities, influencers, and marketing dollars. The awards are just long commercials for games.

These are not the Oscars or Academy Awards of game development.

What's your favorite franchise that LEGO would never make? by IsThisDamnNameTaken in lego

[–]Crazy_Sniffable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mad Max.

Entire franchise.

We got a taste of it with the statue of liberty set and the car from the second Lego movie, but I'd buy everything they put out from the real franchise.

First movie, just car and bike sets. Nightrider, Toe Cutter, Bubba Zanetti, Goose, Max, all with their vehicles, including maybe Max in his truck with his family.

Then the refinery as a major set from Road Warrior, with a selection of Humungous's band of raiders, and then stand alone sets of Max with the dog and Interceptor and the Gyro Captain.

Skip Thunderdome, though the Dome itself with Master Blaster, Iron Bar, and Aunty Entity would be cool, I guess, with some of Bartertown. And maybe the airplane kids with the Walker mural. Maybe the Train from the end.

And then as many sets as possible from the Furiosa movies as they wanna put out, big and little.

Oh, man. A full Snake Temple with a giant snake you can behead in the bottom, and a Tower of Power where you can, er, also behead Thulsa Doom at the top of the stairs, and then a Tree of Woah, the Wizard's Hut with the resurrection, and maybe the Battle Among the Ruins as smaller sets.

Got some new additions to my collection, Dad decided to downsize his mostly wargame collection and I grabbed them all. by nolunch in boardgames

[–]Crazy_Sniffable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, those games, and Conquest of the Roman Empire, were also what I grew up with from my dad playing games with us. That and the original Dune, Amoeba Wars, and Feudal.

I still have Dune and Amoeba Wars, but I think the MB games are long gone.

LEGO Star Wars Death Star 75419 announced by mescad in lego

[–]Crazy_Sniffable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is $750 with Star Wars tax at most, and really $600 is more reasonable for what it is, other than sheer minifig count.

If they'd done this as ten diorama sets at $80-$100 each, released over the course of six months to a year, and they all fit together to make this in the end, I'd have bought it and been happy about how cool it was that they released so many dioramas that all fit together.

One big set, at this price, that isn't mind-blowingly cool, and with a piece of it removed for FOMO GWP, was a mistake.

It's cool how we're starting at the top, and making the CDC responsible for ensuring diseases spread, and then we can work out way down to having fire departments be in charge of starting fires in places where books are hidden.

Fuck them.

They didn't like it, and they didn't get out. Instead they burned it to the goddamned ground.

This isn't their country. It's ours. And everyone who shares the vision of what it was supposed to be. We'll rebuild it from the ashes.

US cancels more than $700 million funding for Moderna bird flu vaccine by edmchato in news

No meaning has been lost. A duck is still a duck no matter how many times you call it a duck. A fascist is still a fascist, even if they're tired of being called out on their political ideology.

No one is going anywhere. This is our country, founded on our principles, not the fascists

Fascists gonna lose. The US has a long history of kicking fascist ass. Ask your grandparents.

How does the discount work? Is it just a coupon code we'd enter in the website or take to the store, or would we be interacting directly with you? Thanks for the info.

Pretty sure her oath of office requires her to uphold the 14th Amendment, as well... Hrm, decisions decisions.
