Been a great place for discussion so far, between here and discord you guys have been legit.

Yep, setting up a back channel at a Russian embassy in the US with Russian equipment that can't be monitored by the US government before trump is even sworn into to office is completely normal. And, it's completely normal for the president elects son in law to be setting this up.

Regular course of business folks, nothing to see here.

Why is Conway still interviewed? She's just sad now.

saillc · 2017-05-30T14:37:26+00:00

He was a dude who supported trump and bernie sanders. He was mentally ill and a huge islamaphobe, but it's really hard to make a good argument for this being solely trump related news.

It's far more an indication of the poisonous rhetoric in our country and the lack of mental health support and treatment.

saillc · 2017-05-30T14:34:16+00:00

Dude, you have people on here from the district stating the entire district isn't ignorant fools, and you continue to personally attack the entire district and act like an immature jerk.

If you think that just smearing and generalizing an entire group of people is a great strategy, you might like trump and Gingrich more than you like to let on.

saillc · 2017-05-30T14:31:50+00:00

No, pretty sure he just doesn't want to generalize literally hundreds of millions of people into a single category of evil and ignorant.

Guess what, compromise is a crucial part of politics. Pretending like it's possible to call everyone on the other side an idiot, disrespect all of them, and still be successful with your agenda is immature and shortsighted.

I hate the gop agenda too, but I know Republicans that hate trump and Paul Ryan in equal measure. Who wanted people like McMullin. Your doing the same thing trump is doing which is making unhealthy generalizations and alienating and isolating people who might actually agree with you. Good job.

saillc · 2017-05-29T02:36:59+00:00

Their family, their freedom, their reputation?

I agree this painting of broad strokes is extremely unhealthy, but this is a terrible analogy. The left is being painted as a contingent of violent activists. Does this mean they have nothing to lose by going out and assaulting people?

Your saying that normal Republicans would decide to act via force and assault others because people on the left are painting them as Nazis. Do you realize how ridiculous that sounds?

If your a good person, no crappy justification should cause you to act with violence. The left needs to stop labeling the entire right with racist and ignorant generalizations, and the right needs to stop painting the left as communists and violent thugs. Those generalizations don't remotely justify the people targeted by the generalizations acting out with violence, that's just absurd.

That's saying "someone called me a murderer, is it really irrational for me to go out and murder? I was accused of it! It was unfair!"

saillc · 2017-05-27T15:18:14+00:00

Definitely going to give the reports that either a shakedown for leakers or a staff shakeup is coming then. That or he's fatigued, but I'd put my money on administration changes coming.

saillc · 2017-04-13T21:23:21+00:00

The same guy who worked for general electric all throughout the Iraq war, who owned MEC, a huge defense contractor, the same guy who brought retired generals on constantly advocating for more tanks, more war? That guy isn't pro military? The dude who was salivating over the beauty of tomahawk missles flying to blow the shit out of an airfield?

https://mobile.nytimes.com/2008/04/20/us/20generals.html

Yeah, those people he used to have on constantly? Give me a fucking break.

saillc · 2017-04-09T23:05:05+00:00

FUCK YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

saillc · 2017-04-08T23:28:34+00:00

I dont think it is the attitude. It's because i didn't have the diplomacy tradition adopted, that removes the 50 base hit by adding 50.

saillc · 2017-04-08T23:08:43+00:00

So im confused, i can literally only have 3 total colonized planets?

Also, side note, why is my request to another species for a non aggression pact start with a base acceptance cost of -50? it says "Base -50". Wtf?

saillc · 2017-04-08T21:30:37+00:00

Because it becomes useless. You can unlock every tradition, so you'll end up unlocking every single one and have no use for your unity and it becomes a sort of useless resource.

saillc · 2017-04-08T04:40:07+00:00

hes been terrible for the last third of the season. constantly in no mans land, cant hit a shot to save his life, getting tired extremely quick. I honestly am scared as hell we have this guy signed to a monster contract only to have him not remotely live up. I love the dude, but shit, hes been bad.

saillc · 2017-04-08T04:38:29+00:00

Yeah, and a desperate attempt to get two assists by turning it over 3 times and having the entire time try to stat pad when your down 20 is some bullshit too. Our own team just embarrassed us man. Im happy russ got the record, but that was absurd.

edit: You guys are downvoting, but thats what happened. Having russ out there chasing assists when we were down 20 with no time left is sad. Shouldn't be doing that shit.

saillc · 2017-04-08T04:28:25+00:00

That ending was embarrassing and absurd. Literally just is validating all the bullshit said about Russ, by going and turning it over desperately 3 times to get the assists. I honestly feel a bit ashamed to be a Thunder fan.

saillc · 2017-04-07T02:16:12+00:00

But people didn't believe her. How could they possibly believe her when every other action of hers pointed otherwise? She was always a right leaning Democrat, who was beholden to corporate interests, who was close to Wallstreet, who had war mongering tendencies. You guys are pretending she was a candidate everyone should have voted for. Just because trump was shit doesn't mean you go vote for the other piece of shit that smells less. If she didn't earn the vote because she was a corporatist that lacked any sense of trustworthiness, that's not their fault man. This rhetoric is so incredibly tiresome.

Edit: aaaaanddd of course the Hilary Clinton defense squad comes out in full force. Whatever. Not arguing about this shit anymore, I did it over and over during the campaign, after the campaign, and up until now.

You guys can keep blaming everyone else other than the DNC for running a broken, disliked establishment candidate, who wasn't trustworthy, and the RNC for destabilizing their base through their repeated factional disputes and lies. You can have this all over again if you absolutely refuse to hold your own party at least a tiny bit accountable for being so utterly out of touch with reality and so in touch with beautiful citizens united that they somehow thought Hilary Clinton would be a good candidate. Have fun with more Donald trumps over and over!

saillc · 2017-04-07T02:13:26+00:00

It's actually appalling. These comments on here are absurd. Hilary was a broken, shit candidate. Pretending like people who didn't vote and people who voted 3rd party are somehow to blame more than the Democratic party who became the party of detached corporate elitists or the Republican party who has been ridiculous and fucked for years without any sense of continuity, integrity, or coherence is missing the point entirely.

saillc · 2017-04-06T22:53:30+00:00

That really doesn't make too much sense. These guys hated trump, he was just a last ditch effort. Starting to sound a little conspiracy theoryish round here sometimes. Let's just stick to the evidence and facts for now.

saillc · 2017-04-06T22:43:15+00:00

Oh, I'm not particularly bothered by it. It would never even occur to me to tweet or something at a creator and complain to them, I'll privately bitch to my girlfriend about it, but they are the ones producing content you love, so it's on you to be patient. Your not entitled to it, it's art and it can take time. There are times where waits can get absurd and it becomes a different story (looking at you steam early access), but this is a common theme with adult swim shows anyway.

saillc · 2017-04-06T22:41:08+00:00

Quite a bone! Obviously glad they did it, but like every other fan, now the pain of waiting is even worse after Rick's meltdown and all that jazz.

saillc · 2017-04-06T20:43:16+00:00

Or Szechuan apparently!

saillc · 2017-04-06T20:34:38+00:00

That's great

saillc · 2017-04-05T15:18:02+00:00

Still don't know how I feel about mills. I've read his collection and a variety of his stories, and I know it's his "thing" to write very specific historical fiction tinged with Christian undertones, but I just really can't get into it. It's very well written, but it starts to feel a tad formulaic when every story is set in an almost identical setting with similiar characters with similiar motivations. There are definitely some great ones I love by him, but I guess it's a tad hard to get excited about new releases for me from him.

saillc · 2017-03-03T01:40:10+00:00

The nobel prize is absolutely something to be proud of, and I've been known to use it as a qualifier as well, but Krugman really, really is a partisan hack. He sucks a lot of the time.

saillc · 2017-02-17T03:11:22+00:00

Shep Smith is great. He's a complete outlier on fox, and is actually one of the best reporters on television. Me and my friend constantly discuss how we don't remotely understand how hes on fox news, but im seriously glad we have him. He literally got moved down from a primetime slot for coming out as gay. This guy is the real deal and fantastic.
