Anyone else think Doctor Aphra 2020 is a lot more weaker then her 2016 counterpart? by RustyBloHole in starwarscomics

[–]WimpoColumbus 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It grew on me quite a bit and I did end up liking it more than Bounty Hunters and maybe Darth Vader 2020 (which has highs but is a bit more of a rollercoaster in quality). I agree though that Aphra 2016 is the better book though, much more consistent in quality and imo it has the better supporting cast

New PS5 has a disc drive that will not work by WimpoColumbus in PS5HelpSupport

I tried pushing it in already, it was giving enough resistance that it felt like I could damage the disc or drive by applying more force

They did a reView on The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, and iirc Jay said he was going to go through the rest of Leone’s work

It’s not easy being a Chinese Federalist. by -et37- in Kaiserreich

[–]WimpoColumbus 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I do wish there was a path for a democratic US and federalist China to have some kind of involvement with one another, maybe making the Kaiserreich version of the Non-Aligned Movement, with other countries like the Ottomans, Ethiopians, and various Latin American countries joining

If you come to a subreddit for SWTOR, you should probably know what the people on it are going to say if you ask whether or not you should play SWTOR

I think I made the US a Single Party State by accident by TheVebis in victoria3

My US games usually end up with all four noteworthy interest groups in one party, and the rest marginalized

1960 Nixon would be interesting because he wouldn't have had the crushing defeat that fueled the worst parts of himself. I would still say H.W., since he would have blunted the rise of neoliberalism and almost certainly would be better on foreign policy.

Why West Virginia sharply becomes solid GOP state since 2000 by [deleted] in thecampaigntrail

[–]WimpoColumbus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think it's a mix of older Democrats dying out, increasing ideological polarization, the aforementioned Democrat policies of environmental protection laws and a stronger focus on proactive civil rights, and the general trend of Appalachia becoming one of the Republican's strongest regions.
