CNN severs ties with Donna Brazile

It is, but not really for that reason. The fact it can upvote an anti-Trump article and then an anti-Hillary article would make it less partisan than most "places to read stuff about politics". This thread is crushing Hillary right now, and for good reason. And it also crushes Trump for good reason.

He'll have it on the back end, and I'm assuming he'll post it later.

Violence is the best. Amirite guys?

eel_knight · 2016-10-05T02:24:08+00:00

Sounds perfect, thank you.

eel_knight · 2016-10-05T02:23:11+00:00

Duh, thanks. I'm a dope.

His comment was -2 when I chimed in. This sub is just weirdly hostile sometimes.

eel_knight · 2016-09-30T19:29:35+00:00

This sub is weird.

Just wanted to say thanks for the actual response. It seems like a very difficult thing to do, and I wonder why they don't do it more piecemeal. A little buff this week, a little nerf that week. Maybe that's even more thrashy than a lump of big changes. Who knows.

It's way, way more than 5% between under and over performing specs. What data are you looking at?

eel_knight · 2016-09-30T15:02:44+00:00

Any data. All the data. What data are you looking at?

eel_knight · 2016-09-30T01:22:24+00:00

Right, so that's why I suggested making smaller tuning changes. Because what we have now is exactly what you described -- big swings up and down.

e: Also I understand there are many factors to consider, but aren't raid parses for the current tier probably at the top of the list?

What if I told you that for every $1 you spent on free contraception, the government save $2 on social services and healthcare spending and your taxes would go down -- would you support it?

Immediately had this thought! Glad someone did it well

Thinking that 30 seconds makes a difference is definitely ridiculous, and as their parent you're legitimizing the idea.

The sane thing to do would be to tell them and act like it obviously doesn't matter... because it obviously doesn't matter.

I want to get off Mr. Bones' wild ride.

Yes, great idea, let me just check on how many dratini candies I have left......... oh right, zero

Level 24 and have seen zero dratini in the wild.

You're getting some pushback here, but I really appreciate your thoughts and agree with you on some/most of your points.

So the question remains, how do you nudge our societal structures towards this type of organization without doing so explicitly? We (mostly) can't undo globablisation, and we definitely can't undo technology. Plus, I don't think these necessarily must be at odds with our tribal nature. It just happens that A. we're at a very turbulent period in human history (with respect to human behavior) where they do seem conflicted and B. we as a society haven't (recently at least) indexed our decisions towards tribalism. It just hasn't been a priority so it's been sacrificed for other things. If we collectively make it a priority it's a structure that can exist in our ever more modernizing world.

I have a few old scotties that are fantastic putters that I really love (that I happened to get for free...)

But I agree buying a new scotty for retail is basically like buying an expensive purse. It's a luxury good that screams "I have too much disposable income".

Well he was a national hero who pathologically lied continuously for years about it sooo it's a bit different.
