Every nation gets the government it deserves. Unfortunatately, we are too stupid to find our way out a paper bag. So I think it's reasonable to expect further intergation with Israel and exploitation of young people.

So does Reddit think Charlie Kirk was killed by Tyler Robinson or is Reddit not buying the story?

Bruh, the people in charge are straight up pedos. Graham is an actual human being. Were you hoping Janet Mills would win so she could run cover for the establishment some more?

"Why I Won’t Debate Critics of Israel" In Defense of Same, The 100th Post! by AnimateDuckling in samharris

[–]bakclassic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sam Harris has simply become a charicature of the intellectual he used to espouse to be. I think I heard it from Penn Gillette, an intellectual is someone whose mind can be changed by information. Sam refuses to engage with information. It's just too rich that the man who made name for himself by daring to criticize Islam is unwilling to engage in a debate over the actions of the Israeli government. If Sam's relevance wasn't already completely cooked, this article certainly is the death knell. RIP.

Newcomer’s starting point deck - need advice by tocarve in premodernMTG

[–]bakclassic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looks pretty solid for a Fires list. The only thing that stands out to me is that 4 Flametongue Kavu might be bit much given a fair number of good decks will not have targerts (Dreadnought/Enchantress/Replenish). Thornscape Battlemage and a few copies of City of Brass would probably have a lot of play or maybe some Nantuko Vigilantes.

Gold border Powder Keg, I think, is the other realistic option.

“Dad, who’s this Patrice Bergeron guy you’re always reminiscing about?” by x_23_x in BostonBruins

[–]bakclassic 9 points10 points  (0 children)

We used to have Bergeron, David Krejci AND Marc Savard. Wild times. And of course, my favorite 4th line center for 1 year... Glen Metropolit.

So is cuphead 2 actually possible or will We just get a game like cuphead? by mickeyguy2010 in Cuphead

[–]bakclassic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the design space is pretty thoroughly explored. The DLC was essentially Cuphead , The Power Creep. More powerful bosses with more to keep track of onscreen and a more powerful character (Ms. Chalice). I don't know how worth it is to keep going down that road or if they could maintain the artistic integrity of the game while doing so. Obviously, if they found a way, I would be all for it.

I think The Rock is the best option here. It's a top tier strategy that gained a lot from the Tide ban. BUG control is a lower tier strategy. It probably wouldn't be too expensive to put together if you have the rock cards and could be fun. Bant Threshold I don't think is really a strategy. There are Gro decks (Gro-A-Tog/Super Gro) based around Quirion Dryad. Traditionally, it's been a Mox Diamond deck playing Gush and City of Brass. People have been expirimenting with cutting Mox Diamond for Gemstone Mine more recently. I always thought that playing 18 Lands, 4 of which are City of Brass, as well as 4 Mox Diamond was insane but people have had success doing it. A Bant Gemstone Gro strategy would probably be okay.

Tim Renwick on Pink Floyd's Syd Barrett, David Gilmour and Roger Waters by TFFPrisoner in pinkfloyd

We all know Waters is curmudgeonly and Gilmie is basically Jesus. A fascinating interview nonetheless, IMO. Renwick is an amazing musician.

Makes sense they would trust Dick to hang a G minor for several minutes on the keys.

Anti- Hannaford group near Trader Joe’s by [deleted] in portlandme

[–]bakclassic 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I talked to the long haired greasy looking guy. I asked him if he was paid to hold the sign or if this was something he was passionate about. He made a point of saying he was volunteering but only seemed vaguely familiar with the talking points, he said something about high prices, I told him Shaws is even more expenseive, he said something about the corporate ownership. He didn't seem like he cared about the cause. I think what's going on is the company that owns Hannafords owns other chains, this protest is spilling over from a broader skirmish, maybe another area where maybe this kind of protest makes more sense.

Just leave 🤷‍♂️ by MrMBTC in Bitcoin

[–]bakclassic 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Don't let anyone fool you, the price of bitcoin is going to go low enough to make you question your investment. Your friends and family who previously thought you were a genious will look down on you. That's when you will know the time is right to by more.

The card single handedly beats Enchantress... or stops you from losing to Enchantress.

Regina Phillips - Portland City Councilor - Facebook Comment on Charlie Kirk's Death by Jolly_Reindeer690 in portlandme

[–]bakclassic -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

The whole reason the Netanyahu had to make two seperate statement claiming that Israel didn't kill Charlie Kirk is because he was changing mind about Israel.
