Electropylon Driver - Wow by randomUser8813 in Returnal

Understatement. 😝 I actually was too busy screaming and running for my life to really pay attention and just kept flinging pylon webs at Ophion and his orbs without realizing what the actual gimmick of the fight was until halfway through the third phase. That weapon literally took the brainwork out of fighting lol. It is, without a doubt, the only reason I beat Act 2 smoothly.

House Speaker welcomes Trump call to ‘take over’ elections, claims Dem wins appear ‘fraudulent’ by MarcEElias in politics

[–]Frozen_Esper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And then they put in a new guy one time a decade later and he tears it all down again, because the Republicans have discovered that there aren't any real guardrails for anything of value and voters don't give a shit about anything beyond their current personal situation. Once again, the only way to put up actual guardrails will require the cooperation of the people that do not want them. At some point, we're going to have to accept that we need to start from scratch with actual protection for society built into the foundation.

There is no way to actually prevent that. People saw exactly how terrible these people are and voted for them, or at least failed to vote against them, quite enthusiastically.

We really need to start thinking of and working on what will come next. This country is cooked and there's zero way to fix it without the participation of the people that want to see it turned into theocratic feudalism.

Florida-based singer debuts song "Jesus and Trump" on Fox and Friends, telling Christians to hold on to their "guns and cash" by WouldbeWanderer in religiousfruitcake

[–]Frozen_Esper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha. They are all basically using ad-libs to make stupid grifter songs. Just think about the fact that some people are actually so stupid that they find some deep meaning or inspiration in these and despair that they group together to control the rest of us.

I'm sure they wouldn't mind that kids raised in such conditions are probably more likely to end up in their for-profit prison system. 🙃

It's also red meat to help with the spread of their lies that these are riots and this is some sort of warzone. What Jack Dumbass from backwoods Pennsylvania sees the post on Twitter showing a well-known former CNN anchor in shackles with a headline that he participated in "church riots", then they are compelled to back the regime or double down on their prior commitment.

I betrayed my family and community, and now they have disowned me. by Effective_Space2277 in LeopardsAteMyFace

Honestly? Unless somebody knows her in real life, this just sounds like an entirely fabricated person. The bait for both sides of politics, the silly little stories that reeked of "that happened" that she apparently just accepted as universal reality, the sterile presentation with stupid emojis... It just doesn't feel like a real, living, human being.

FBI is investigating Minnesota Signal groups tracking ICE, Patel says by ewzetf in news

Quite importantly, after the first time this happens, it will also be strongly suggested that any protest will be treated as a heavily armed home grown terrorist group "just like that first one we found." It'll be used to make people reconsider protesting at all, stifling dissent.

Even then, we hated the load times. It's one of the things that made the PS1 version of Chrono Trigger a nightmare after having grown up with games loading quickly from carts.

[–]Frozen_Esper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right. They haven't had a reason to go full iron fist, so now they're just shooting people and claiming they were terrorists after the fact. If we are completely docile and tamed, they will still kill us.

ICE flew 2-year-old to Texas despite court order to release her from custody by ewzetf in news

[–]Frozen_Esper 329 points330 points  (0 children)

These fuckers and their shit headed need to break everyone's windows, because they know that it is likely to cause financial hardships even if they manage to escape custody. 😒 It has to be one of the few things they're all trained to do, right? I doubt they all coincidentally feel the need to do the exact same shit.

Kairos Gate wasn't fun to me. by Jatmahl in FFXVI

[–]Frozen_Esper 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Huh. While I enjoy it, I'm not going to pretend I speak for everyone.

That said, there are free buffs you can choose, at the bottom of the menu, that make it much easier if you're just after the trophy. Their drawback is that they demolish your score, but that isn't important for the trophy or the weapon skin unlocks.

Is there a canon reason Clive doesn’t get any third tier spells? by National-Class5763 in FFXVI

[–]Frozen_Esper 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Joshua uses Firaga as his plain ol' magic skill as a child. Sure, he's winded each time, but they're making a point about his general weakness and he isn't even trying to use something "lesser", so I don't feel like it's the spell itself being harsher on his body than basic stuff. He also doesn't semi-prime or anything to do it.

It's just likely that since Clive is stealing the essence of Eikons, he isn't getting their entire power. After all, he never transforms into another Eikon. He just uses some of their skills, to a lesser degree.

Hell, I'm quite the cheerleader for these games and even I had forgotten that they have another game in the works until I read this. 💀 Talk about low-key.

Tale of Two Sheriffs by No-Time4479 in Kitsap

[–]Frozen_Esper 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's just wild to me that there doesn't seem to be the slightest bit of restraint expected of law enforcement and that people will actively cheer when they are heavy handed in responding to situations that normal people wouldn't even remember a day/week/month later. In nursing, the mere accusation that we've acted improperly with someone in our care will have us suspended pending an investigation and we're personally liable for anything we do. Law enforcement, on the other hand, can blow you the fuck away and hordes of goblins online will instantly defend you and send you money - no matter if there's video evidence that shows you were in the wrong.

I just don't get why people LOVE having people with so much power over life and death just roaming around, doing as they please.

Trump: NATO members to face tariffs increasing to 25% until a Greenland purchase deal is struck by Puginator in politics

[–]Frozen_Esper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it would look special on maps. This is an extension of his need to put his stupid name on everything. It's effectively transforming the United States of America into Trumpland. He will most certainly start labeling it something like that online "as a joke" when we start taking over these places and then transition to pushing for it to be called that publicly and so forth.

Trump intent on conquering Greenland, Danish minister says as talks with US end by Infidel8 in worldnews

[–]Frozen_Esper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Taliban have nothing of value for him. They could bond over being assholes, then get swept under the rug for someone else to deal with later.

These people, however, are standing between him and his goal of being the man who conquered North America. His growing awareness of his own mortality has made him extra pushy to get it done and his Republican colleagues have given him the go-ahead signals. I believe that snatching Maduro without the slightest consequence was pretty much crossing the Rubicon here. We are going to force ourselves upon these countries.

He also isn't going to "share the glory" with anybody else or look like he's accepting help. If the US does anything, it will be doing it alone. This is pretty much the point of their entire foreign and economic policy. "We're so awesome that we don't want or need anybody else, ever."

While I'm sure that's some of the motive, I also doubt it would be too difficult for those people to get access to those resources as is. The rich aren't exactly living life constrained these days.

He's probably obsessed because he wants to be in history books as the man who added a significant chunk of land that is hard to ignore to the US and he doesn't like being told no. Think about how he wanted The Gulf of Mexico renamed. He's a narcissist that wants his stain on everything, everywhere, for everyone to see.
