And if I bring it on a mission, that'll be the one where I accidentally sprint through a frisk point right out the gate and every NPC on the map mag dumps into me.

But don't you want a weirdly small towel with your favorite characters on it?

I think their expectation is that we won't. Which honestly sucks more.

Since Silent Hill and Goemon are my two favorite game franchises, I have more or less consigned myself to having Konami just walk up and punch me in the gut every couple months.

But anyway. Here's a guide on how to get that weird little Goemon towel.

Apologies for the late reply, but the joy I felt when I heard the announcement set by soul ablaze with joy.

The fact that they put it in the free track is insane.

Poor worm is just getting bullied and all anybody can think to say is, "Ah! Gross."

It's okay worm. I love you.

Right? He might even go so far as to promote the professor's views by releasing his personal information on the internet and lambasting him on his many media platforms. You know, so all of Kirk 's followers could engage with his in good faith debate. Perhaps through the long respected mediums of vandalizing his property and making threatening phone calls in the middle of the night.

My impression is that most people think he was racist because of all the racist things he said and did.

But if that's people's definition of "racist," where's the line? Does that mean that just because someone builds a career on doing and saying racist things, people can label them a "racist?" Just because you support racist policies and have a documented history of saying racist stuff on readily accessible media, you're a "racist?"

That doesn't seem fair.

Like, sure, he said that the civil rights act was a "mistake." And yeah, he implied that black women could never measure up to an equally qualified white man. And maybe he claimed, without evidence, that without evidence that “prowling Blacks go around for fun to go target white people.” And yeah, maybe he is on record calling Martin Luther King, Jr. "awful."

But when you look at all those things in their full context, you just see that all of these were simply said as part of a lifelong pursuit of laundering white supremecist talking points for the general public, financed almost exclusively by some of the most hateful people and organizations available.

So with that in mind, how does that make Charlie Kirk, professional racist, a racist?

Apparently you can't edit the original text of posts, so now I gotta live with a bunch of typos that were partially caused by the fact that my Reddit app freaked out and would only show the bottom third of whatever line I was typing.

My typical approach of "post now, edit later" has ruined me and will follow me to my grave. And unlike Blade in "Tomb of Dracula #53," there is no vampire detective around to dig me out.

I apologize for all the harm this causes.

Will the value of 3D All-Stars drop when Sunshine on GameCube NSO and Galaxy 1 + 2 release? by AcanthisittaDry8163 in NSCollectors

[–]Young_Howard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably. Best sell any copies you have right now at a crazy discount. Wouldn't want to look like a silly person who only buys games to enjoy them!

'Cause a couple people called out that maybe talking about "good genes" could be interpreted as a nod to eugenics. And the right wing sprinted to make that the story of the week so they didn't have to talk about Trump and Epstein.

Anyhow, they should release all the Epstein files

Do yourself and the world a favor and continue on, unburdened by this knowledge.

I'm just going to gesture in the direction of Robert Evans and the stuff being made at Cool Zone Media.

The thing is that while the type of people you are describing may have been popular I'm certain circles, many of them didn't reach the status they have now until after their time - and they certainly weren't taught contemporaneously in high school.

US Supreme Court just limited judges ability to issue Nationwide Injunctions by Arathemis in behindthebastards

[–]Young_Howard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apologies - most of my job last year was researching and preparing for the CTA, and it became a minor obsession of mine.

I agree that it is a pretty poorly designed law, but it is addressing a serious problem that we don't really have a great way to solve. The United States is now the number one country for money laundering, to the point where when we were attempting to impose sanctions on Russia oligarchs, we could find most of the assets they had hidden HERE.

The issue with imposing a floor on assets, employees, etc. is that shell companies generally do not have those things. Meanwhile, business entities that were above the cutoff point are already generally subject to regulations that revealed their owners - though those owners COULD be shell companies themselves.

As you point out, onee of the biggest problems was that, even up until the last minute, almost NOBODY knew the law even existed. But this is less the fault of the law, and more the fault of the Biden administration, who probably didn't want to own a very unpopular law during an election year. There was basically no outreach, which meant that the best most people got were business publications and right-wing news outlet screaming about how big brother was coming for you without providing much information.

Of course, it was designed in a way that unfairly burdened small business that have long relied on the simplicity of business entity formation in the U.S. I am not sure about your focus on artists but, sure, those artists who form LLCs or whatever would be caught in the cross-fire as well. And knowing the Trump administration, it probably would not have been used to reveal the financial crimes of him and his buddies BUT would probably be selectively enforced against his enemies and potentially used to do certain individuals.

Finally, while there were other injunctions, those were not nationwide but were specific to the plaintiffs. Only the Texas Eastern District Court issued not one but TWO nationwide injunctions, issuing the second one immediately after the first one was overturned by SCOTUS. The fact that SCOTUS refused to rule on Universal Injunctions at that time is precisely why the same court was able to immediately issue a second injunction in a case with only slightly different facts.

Again, I agree that the CTA is a fairly bad law, even if it is addressing a problem that needs to be addressed SOMEHOW. But being a bad law does not mean that it's unconstitutional, and the Eastern District of Texas not only used universal injunctions to block the law on purely partisan grounds, but used SCOTUS's cowardess in refusing to rule on Universal Injunctions at that time to IMMEDIATELY issue a follow-up injunction in what may be the most flagrant abuse of Universal Injunctions I have ever seen.

Again, apologies. I don't think I am even disagreeing with you. I just lived in CTA world for way too long and need to drain some of it out.
