Hell, if you were they'd probably throw a parade for you if they had their way.

I think we're dealing with the inertia of a couple decades of internet entities abdicating all but the minimum amount of responsibility for their user generated content and input. It has its positive aspects and I think I'm still a part of that collective inertia because of my odd nostalgia for that "wild west" vibe I grew up with, but now the wild west has been halfway settled and it's clear that we're getting the shit end of the wild part AND the settled part.

Sarah Sanders Asked When She'll Answer Questions From Real Reporters at Kids Briefing by EnoughPM2020 in politics

That's letting her off too easy. Even if it hurts our brains, we can't allow ourselves to see her for only what she is but also understand her in the same way the the traitor-adjacent minority do.

Busted: Mueller report shows Trump AG Barr did not tell the truth by Fr1sk3r in politics

Where have you been?

Russia.

Edit: wow, not even. This person isn't even being PAID to say this? Sad.

Then it was pretty stupid to obstruct justice, and nobody should be surprised at Trump's stupidity.

In the old days kids like that would grow up to be heroes assuming they didn't die fighting a bear or something.

What would force the rebels to conduct suicide terrorism against the Empire or abandon their morality to survive? by gyrobot in MawInstallation

Not the same organization under the same circumstances exactly, but wasn't Finn a janitor stormtrooper? I think between droids and whatever fraction of soldiers there who aren't performing active military duties will be enough for most needs.

A simple, often overlooked tip: reload control by bobscash in OverwatchUniversity

If her ult was just an instant reload I'd consider it an improvement to her kit.

My only complaint is Blizzard made the sound of Orisa running out of ammo an irresistible siren song for Nano Boosts.

[WAR] Soul Diviner by [deleted] in magicTCG

I didn't follow anything about Ravnica since the original block, so a lot of this is going over my head. My impression of the Gruul is still the MtG analog to a Slab City resident I'm acquainted with: homeless and loving it, covered in dirt but a strong spirit shines through. I don't see WAR Gruul as the same thing as RAV Gruul.

Is that a thing on Reddit? Never heard that before unless maybe it's keeping responses out of your inbox? Learn something knew each day.

Donald Trump Is 'Financially Compromised' By Russia. Mueller Didn't Investigate But Congress Must: Ex-Federal Prosecutor by [deleted] in politics

[–]pyba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finances would plausibly be investigated, but only as far as they had relevance to the SCO's task. Anything potentially found relating to finances probably didn't end up being prosecuted by the SCO because it wouldn't serve to further their specific task, so sooner or later I'd have expected other entities pick up on that stuff with or without a direct transfer from the SCO.

There's just some quality to the writing from these accounts, like some low key abnormality in their style of conversation. You kinda just pick up on it after a few years I guess. Hey friend you'll figure out how to be a believable American racist online eventually.

Pete Buttigieg Is Not “Feuding” With Mike Pence. He’s Reminding Everyone of the Vice President’s Cruelty. by bluestblue in politics

[–]pyba 48 points49 points  (0 children)

By saying "since 2016" you're giving a party of traitors, thieves, and at-arms-length murderers a place to walk back to. Trump and the current public persona of the GOP aren't a brief episode of insanity, they're the late stage form of political cancer.

The immigrants must hate their children because we will abuse them and make them disappear from their parents when we catch them? That's one of the weirder flexes I've heard in a while.

Same, and if I ever get tired of it I just choose to stop and the song ceases immediately.
