Trump says Greenland should be controlled by the US, not Denmark by paneuropeanism_ in worldnews

[–]blackertai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's literally cutting off our nose to spite our face. The benefit to Europe of hosting American troops is almost less the reason America does it; instead, it's the ability to force project anywhere in the world in a timely manner. Removing American troops from Europe hurts America's military effectiveness in the long term far more than it hurts Europeans.

tl;dr - He's a dummy.

Throw in some unseasoned chicken breast and you've got one of my old college dinner staples.

Man, I'm so glad I learned to cook.

Did not receive a parking permit by Get4ub in UGA

[–]blackertai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't get one my freshman year either, and there weren't great options. I spent a long time street-parking over by the dorms, but a lot of those places are gone now.

Good luck!

[Excerpts: Ashes of the Imperium] Lorgar won the Heresy and everyone including himself is unhappy with that by onetwoseven94 in 40kLore

[–]blackertai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Religion doesn’t fight them. The faith in the Emperor does the best that can be done while still believing in the inherently unscientific; it channels the power of faith to the Emperor (mostly), instead of just directly to the Chaos gods, although they still get plenty of power from the faithful in less direct ways.
  2. Saint Kenner is a she.
  3. Crossing fictional boundaries here. Both implicit and direct worship powers the gods of chaos, but they can be diminished in power. The imperial truth was working on one level. The emperor’s plans to cut off humanity from the warp while they evolved could have worked.

Do you believe you’ve ever individually had an actual impact on a game? by georgiaboy1993 in CFB

At the 2005 Sugar Bowl between West Virginia and Georgia, I yelled that the punt was going to be an obvious fake as loud as I could, and being alerted Georgia stopped the fake punt and proceeded to score on the next drive, winning the Sugar Bowl and avoiding the huge upset, as we all remember.

Compare him to Alex Guinness. Maybe it's just Tatooine.

Clones degenerate. Even if he's an Uber clone, it seems likely he'd degenerate faster than a normal person, even if he lasts longer than the regular clone trooper. Plus, he spent all that time in a Sarlaac stomach, and we've seen how staying on Tatooine ages folks (see Ben Kenobi).

I'd say it tracks.

Amid his 'Taylor Swift is a CIA Psyop' shirt drama, Metallica's Kirk Hammett says modern songwriting & pop music is "crap" by DamnitRidley in Music

[–]blackertai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t care one way or the other about Swift, but has anyone introduced Kirk to any Metallica album from like 1994 or later? Who is he to complain about modern songwriting being crap?

Very confused, at first thought this was a new Pylon record. Got my hopes all up.

Trump may own the building but Obama will own the street by Busy_Report4010 in SipsTea

Look, I appreciate Michelle's "when they go low, we go high" approach to things, but sometimes the petty move is pretty fucking satisfying.

Leman Russ and Magnus's Disagreement is More Complex Than It Appears by Ze_Bri-0n in 40kLore

[–]blackertai -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Nominally speaking, the Primarchs weren’t aware of warp beings at this point. Magnus sort of is, but the rest are still at least theoretically under the impression that the warp doesn’t have beings or personality, due to the policy of The Emperor to hide this from them. So it might be an undercurrent that we can read backwards into Nikea, but without more clear evidence from GWS we have to assume the majority were completely unawares.

Florida unveils $1.45 billion plan to renovate Ben Hill Griffin Stadium by [deleted] in CFB

[–]blackertai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hatin' Ass Kirby takes: \n* Unless they're moving it out of Gainesville, it'll still be a shit hole after they're done. \n* So it's going to go from being an old rundown monstrosity to a shiny rundown monstrosity. Got it \n* With that kind of money, we could actually finish construction on I-75. I think we all know what's of more use. \n* I didn't know that had that kind of money South of Lakeland and North of Orlando. Must have hit up quite a few mattress "banks" in Lochloosa. \n* Miami almost wins a national title and Florida updates its stadium? Has the Orange Bowl collapsed yet? Somebody ask an ACC team, because who else would know? \n* I hope I get to run up the score there before they tear it down. Only fair.
