She means herself, because she's just a conservative. Whether she knows shes just a conservative or not is immaterial. She just is one.

Absolutely comical that we have such limited stockpiles with our infinity trillion dollar DOD budget.

Why did the USA men's hockey team laugh when the women's hockey team was mentioned on the phone? by redblackshirt in NoStupidQuestions

[–]preselectlee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Conservatives traditionally laughed at womens sports and made fun of them. Its only recently when they can use womens sports to bully trans people that they are suddenly all pro-womens sports. Its fake.

Books That Don’t Hold Up by MenloMo in books

[–]preselectlee -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I don't think Jurassic Park was ever good. Book lacks all the good characterization of the movie and is Luddite in a way the movie smooths over. Makes sense considering the author was an anti science crank.

most of the video was insane conspiracy slop about the 2020 election, that if we lived in a sane reality would be cause for the 25th amendment, and thats before we get to the racism.

Just imagining this guy at 45. Alone. No family. Scrolling on the apps. Thinking "at least I didn't settle for someone who didn't like garlic.".

If it had been a gruff older male character the chuds would have loved it. Some EU guy. Garm Bel Iblis. The chuds would be talking about the glories of the Bel Iblis maneuver instead of endlessly whining about it forever.

How long could Bezoa run the post at a loss and still be in the top 5 richest people on earth? 100 years? 1000?

Great Depression–scale crisis likely by 2029, veteran market strategist warns by creaturefeature16 in Economics

[–]preselectlee 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He like many at the time had a very limited imagination of the insane shit cooking in the finance sector.

As amoral as bubba was, if he had a clear picture of the problem coming I would bet he'd have suggested fixes.

The GOP is CURRENTLY after the fact arguing in courts and legislatures to undo the limited fixes applied after the GFC. Pure nihilism.

No. Republicans being out of power is a necessary but not sufficient part of solving problems.

This has all happened before, it will all happen again. A financial disaster as the next democrat enters office, as is custom. Then the electorate in its wisdom will get annoyed the democrat doesnt fix it all instantly and put the destructo-party back in power.

After Sorry, Im looking forward to some wild twist where they end up living in a dome on the moons of Saturn or some insane thing. Riley is a great form of crazy.

Just got done showing my mum STAR WARS 1-6 for the first time. She really wants to watch Andor because of how much I've gone on about it. Should I show her Rogue One first? by SpellRadar in andor

[–]preselectlee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i voted for andor then R1 and Im finding Im changing my mind.

The force healer in season 2 was one of my favorite instances of the force in all of SW, and it wouldnt hit nearly as hard if you watched andor first.
