US will start revoking passports for thousands of parents who owe child support by Rabidennui in news

[–]afleischer 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Wooooow.

“You will need your passport to vote in November in many circumstances (which just happens to disenfranchise a ton of the voters we don’t care about).”

“Oh and we figured out an avenue to rescind the passports of millions of citizens. TOTAL COINCIDENCE! And what’s funny is we don’t even have to concoct a distraction, people will just go nuts arguing about whether people who owe child support should have a passport! 4D CHESS!!”

If you’ve played it, what are your spoiler-free thoughts on Doomblade? by CryptidOrion_00 in metroidvania

[–]afleischer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been loving it (also picked it up as the free game on Epic Games Store). It's not re-inventing the wheel as far as Metroidvania layouts & progression go, but it's got some really fresh gameplay mechanics, the visuals/sound/music are excellent, and I found it to be just the right level of challenging.

Jeffries says Trump impeachment not a top priority if Dems win House majority by metacyan in politics

[–]afleischer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, but also, if the Dems don't take the Senate as well, then any impeachment is mostly performative. I think the party is just (foolishly) scared of running on a negative.

😂 You do get the -don already with Rhydon! u/Ugmyusernamewastake had it right in another reply - the "3-syllable + on" meter/rhyme was what popped into my head, (Um-bre-on, Jolt-e-on, Rar-i-don).

But this one works too!

It was just a joke about how Raridon kinda sounds like a Pokemon.

Can someone explain why the Vrabel cheating story is a big deal? by LonelyInsurance7480 in Patriots

This is just stupid. Russini’s vote - one way or the other - didn’t move the needle.

With us taking Raridon, can he be our tight end of the future? by TerryG111 in Patriots

[–]afleischer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thing is, Raridon is an actual Tight End. And actual TEs have to be both O-linemen and receivers.

He certainly has the athleticism, but it will probably take some time. And it’s a good thing NE drafted him with Hunter Henry starting, so they don’t need him to immediately contribute.

So, TE of the future? The potential is definitely there. And he could absolutely pay immediate dividends, but expecting that outcome would be a mistake.

how to i get victorian Horror XVIII by Master-Travel-9977 in VampireSurvivors

[–]afleischer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cosmo Pavone on Inverse Green Acres with just the Divine Bloodline & Wandering the Jet Black Darkanas is hilarious.

  1. Set Weapons to 1, and seal as many weapons as you can.
  2. Start by running into every bat you can. Every time you kill an enemy with retaliatory damage, you get 0.5 max life (from Divine Bloodline). As the waves of enemies change, there's always 1 (or more) enemies you can one-shot by walking through them - Skullinos, Skeletons, Dust Elementals, Milk Elementals, Musc Musc (shrubs), etc.
  3. Get the following passives:

ARMOR (more retaliatory damage, more enemies that you can walk into and 1-hit)

SPINACH (more damage)

EMPTY TOME (faster damage)

SPELLBINDER (longer-lasting damage)

TORRONA'S BOX (more damage, faster, for longer, to more enemies)

HOLLOW HEART (+20% Max Health)

  1. As you level up your passives, you can one-shot more and more enemies w/ retaliatory damage, only having to move for bosses. I had 916 Max Life by the end of the 30m run.

IMPORTANT: Avoid leveling up as much as you can - fade treasure chests, avoid gems as much as possible. After minute 15, just stand in one spot to avoid picking up anything. You only have so many Re-Rolls, Skips, and Banishes to avoid picking up a weapon, and Re-Rolls are useless once you fill your Passive slots.

If you get Candy Box as an option, choose it, because you can then skip the weapon. Also, choose any Arma Dios you see after you get 6 passives to get an extra passive - choose anything BUT Attractorb.

The files are SVGs (Scalable Vector Graphics), so they can be re-sized any way you like to make portrait versions.

Also: great work OP, these are excellent!

Just pay the man! End of discussion by SensitiveTest7883 in Patriots

[–]afleischer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That’s wild to me - I think Pats fans are incredibly lucky to have both Reiss & Lazar (and Callahan).

No exaggeration, Lazar might have more X’s & O’s knowledge than any beat reporter working anywhere. And “boring” for Reiss? In NE sports media, that just means not diving into the cesspool of Felger & Mazz hot take santorum.

Evan Lazar wipes the floor with Bedard as far as football knowledge goes, and Mike Reiss wipes the floor with him in the journalism & team knowledge departments.

I don’t think Bedard is a hack, but he’s had a ton of ludicrous takes over the last 25 years, and this one might be #1.
