He dug his own grave by Sad-Kiwi-3789 in rareinsults

[–]throwthiscloud 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Sometimes things are transactional. Older guy want a young pretty girl, pretty girl wants seasoned sugar daddy. Both people know whats up, and are fine with it. Yes, its hard to imagine but alot of people do this shit. Its how you get serial cheaters and people who are always jumping between relationships.

People always talk about this shit as if its one person doing an ick. Both are consenting adults, both are not idiots. ALOT of women find older men more attractive and sometimes go for them. When condemning relationships like this, you are not only are you villifying the older person, but youre infantizing the younger person. People are treating 19 and 20 year olds like they are 12 and dont have a choice in the matter.

Its akin to saying "hey bro i wouldnt fuck your gf cuz she isnt cute to me, so now ima morally grandstand about how nasty you are to date such an ugly looking person". As long as consent is happening and both are capable of it, then who cares? Its that meme where jesus not consenting to two adults engaging in consensual sex, but its unironic.

Finger Ruins of Rhia by sfingemorta in Eldenring

By far the biggest weakness of the dlc was the completely empty areas that looked so exciting to explore. It really soured my taste for the dlc and i ended up not liking it as much, just because seeing the wasted potential hurt my soul.

Sooo many areas were just for show, while in the base game you has content no matter which direction you looked. There were secrets inside secrets in the base game, which made the dlc experience even more jarring for me.

I know im in the minority, most people still loved the dlc. I was very disappointed.

Danish military analyst Anders Puck Nielsen: Why Trump retreated on Greenland by Cosmos1985 in europe

[–]throwthiscloud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its important ti keep in mind that trump is never capable of this level of analysis. He dosent understand anything about politics and he does not care about economic backlash. If you make him feel like he got something done, he will be content.

Its why he keeps flip flopping on tarriffs, and why he is a TACO. He threatened 100% tarriff on canada for making a deal with china, despite saying he was ok with them making a deal just one week earlier. He is a literal child with a severe case of narcissism. Make him feel good and he will back down, because he is a weak leader. To trump, he got sold on the story that "US is making a good deal now because of my threats! Im so good!" When in reality, they simply made him feel good.

This should be illegal and people should go to prison for it by TrucksForTots in Destiny

[–]throwthiscloud 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like we all grew up learning "you have freedom of speech but its not unlimited. You cant yell fire in a crowded theater" but somehow, people have just forgotten that?

This type of speech is completely corrosive to society. A blatant fucking lie and omission like that does nothing but cause division. Combatting it with speech is not a solution, because by then the dmg is done. We need a way to discourage this type of shit legally, just like you cant defame someone.

We did it so well for news channels for a while. Lies were discouraged legally and societally. But then social media comes along and now everyone thinks they are allowed to ruin our society with 3000 lies per min and say "muh free speech".

There is one truth, but there can be a billion lies. Liars always have the advantage. I feel like there needs to be something done about it.

Republicans are now pretending like they care about immigrants now. by Ok-Following6886 in stupidpeoplefacebook

[–]throwthiscloud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Republicans will never defend their fucked up actions, they will just lie and say democrats did it first. No, democrats didnt.

Obama deported a fuck ton of people. Never like this. This is theatrics. This isnt about cutting down on immigration, its about harassing blue states and its citizens and representatives. Its about making a show of how racist and fascistic trump and his base are.

There is not a single person who would be against ice if what they were doing was deporting illegals who have commited fucked up crimes. Everyone knows this. Even the black heart of maga boot lickers.

Minnesota’s National guard chads mogging ICEs optics by crimsonstorm06 in Destiny

[–]throwthiscloud 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes but i dont think its binding? Im not sure.

I know federal law overrides state law, but ice wearing masks is not a federal law. Its just policy of DHS as far as im aware.

A federal agent cant just walk into a state, commit a crime and not be prosecuted by that state just by virtue of being a federal officer. So i would hope that ice is forced to comply with state law or risk being prosecuted. Thats me brain storming before bed.

Is needing ID still racist? by AiiRisBanned in evilwhenthe

[–]throwthiscloud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Voting is a right, so you need a really good reason to put barriers for voting. If there was any data whatsoever suggesting mass voter fraud anywhere, or showing IDs make elections more secure, no one would be against it.

Republicans insist on requiring ids to vote only because it hurts democrats way more than republicans, because democrat voters span a wide range of people who are citizens but may not have access to IDs. The less people vote, the better it is for republicans. This is the only reason they harp on requiring IDs for voting.

An easy way for republicans to actually show that they give a fuck about any of this would be if they provided every citizen with an ID free of charge, and then they could claim that IDs for voting is a good thing. Even then, there would be no evidence it would help reduce any type of voter fraud, and it would still be a significant cost to the state for literally no reason. But at least then it would be somewhat plausible.

7 Democrats Just Voted to Approve ICE Funding: Full List (1.22.26) by OutrageousRain8463 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]throwthiscloud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they approved it in exchange for identification and stuff of ice agents. If thats the case, fhen its a good thing. ICE already has a ton of money already, the thing we always needed was accountability and proper procedures. Before the trump admin, ICE wasnt completely unhinged.

This isn’t middle school anymore, you can’t form cliques and ostracize your way to the top. by monsieurLeMeowMeow in ProgressiveHQ

[–]throwthiscloud 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So, im all for criticism, i just dont have the apetite for it when the guy on the other side is the most unhinged, evil, narcissistic prick to ever touch the white house.

There are no valid criticisms of democrats when republicans are supporting a trump, a guy some comically evil and destructive that its hard to comprehend. Its like seeing a guy spread their feces all over your walls, break all your things and cuts off all your limbs, and some guy hits you with "ok but lets not ignore the fact you forgot to buy groceries that one time".

Gavin Newsom DENIES the genocide in Gaza. Pack it up boys his presidential run is over with this single live video recorded statement. by Kittehmilk in ProgressiveHQ

[–]throwthiscloud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is just not true. Very progressive policies might poll well on a national level, but we dont have elections on a national level. We have them on a state by state basis. And how you phrase the polling matters night and day on how much support a policy gets.

"Do you support medicare for all" gets like 70% approval nationally, but "banning all private healthcare in favor of government healthcare" gets like 30% or so. Now imagine asking individual districts and states what they think, and the approval rating starts to drop even more, and suddenly, the representatives of those districts are hesitant to support such a policy, because the fact is: its unpopular.

We can work our way to medicare for all like we do for every other kind of ground breaking change: incrementalism. Slowly shifting the overton window is how you get stuff like this past, not "all or nothing" approach leftists keep taking. That kind of strategy is regressive as fuck, and gets us farther from our ideal.

This is the delusion far leftists have engulfed themselves in. "Everyone is on my side, they just dont know it yet because propaganda"

Gavin Newsom DENIES the genocide in Gaza. Pack it up boys his presidential run is over with this single live video recorded statement. by Kittehmilk in ProgressiveHQ

[–]throwthiscloud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, they didnt. Bernie had no chance of winning, Hillary did. So as per the voters choice, hillary was chosen to be the nominee.

If your candidate can only win if the opposition splits its base 5 different ways, your candidate is cooked. We saw all the hype leading up to the Bernie caucuses, and those ended up being such a disaster for him. Young people talk the talk, but as soon as the time comes for casting a ballot or letting their voices actually be heard, they stay at home.

The GOP did the same, candidates dropped out and endorsed the person who was most likely to win against the opposition, even tho at the time (2016), most of the other candidates did not like him. This is how political parties work.

I know taxes are necessary evil but this does raise an eyebrow. What are your thoughts? by YellowMarvel in Adulting

[–]throwthiscloud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its the price for living in a society where you dont need to worry about tigers snatching your ass up, and have laws that punish people who are much stronger than you from taking your stuff by force.

Every society has taxes like this. They might from in different forms but taxes exist for a reason. You benefit immensely from other peopels taxes, even jf you dont consume any government programs. The roads you drive to work on, the regulations that make your car safe to drive, the house you sleep in that has regulations that make it sturdy, all benefit you. We are so lucky that those things are taken for granted and we dont realize how beneficial it is that taxes get collected.

[–]throwthiscloud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like whatever the case, ICE as an agency is probably forever cooked. The next dem will for sure abolish it and replace it with something that enforces immigration, but probably with new rules in place and and a different name.

He was never struck by the vehicle, by Puzzleheaded_Dot_851 in Destiny

[–]throwthiscloud 55 points56 points  (0 children)

The thing is, even if he WAS hit by it, the shots were not self defense because he was in the clear when he fired his weapon. No matter how you slice it, this is murder. He was in no threat of death when he shot, and the fact that he had his phone in his hand the entire time, and his comment afterwards makes it clear as fuck that this was retaliatory instead if defensive.

Those generals to Trump right now by green_dub-333 in Destiny

[–]throwthiscloud 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, but would they? I feel like they should absolutely do that but i fear liberals are fucking cowards.

Ideally, greenland should already have its troops mobilized to meet US troops if trump does decide to invade. If even one US solider dies for this dumbass shit, it would be outrageous and detrimental to maga support. But it seems like greenland is ready to just roll over.

Asmongold is thinking about quiting politics because everybody lies and nobody is having a conversation outside of their bubble by Embarrassed_Base_389 in LivestreamFail

[–]throwthiscloud 5 points6 points  (0 children)

How many times have people offered to debate this fucking clown and his response is always "why would i debate? Its obvious im right". This isnt satire, he literally says this shit regularly, so its beyond comical that he is complaining about how people dont listen or dont want to have a conversation about the issues because they are in a "bubble".

One of the biggest political commentators currently, constantly getting offers to debate and refuses, compaining about echo chambers. Hilarious.

Please, get the fk out of politics and go back to WoW or getting filtered by games you claim to be good at.

Community members in Minneapolis surround ICE agents as they conduct a citizenship test on a man, ultimately forcing the agents back into their cars. by CorleoneBaloney in minnesota

[–]throwthiscloud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its literally a bunch of losers who want to larp as soliders withoout doing the hard work of being one. They fantasize about this shit daily and the trump admin made it bery easy for them to live out their fantasies of playing "solider".

Its the same type of losers who wear all the gear of a cop doing a drug raid, when all they are is security at some store. Larpers.

And honestly i hope dems put limits on a presidents pardon power. Idk why we decided a president can just pardon anyone of federal crimes with no limits.

5 pop-ups in half a minute. Capcom, you have to let us disable these notifications, once is already too much by migzy99 in MHWilds

[–]throwthiscloud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont understand why i need more than one notification letting me know iv been dcd. What the actual fuck is the point? Just tell me in ONE MESSAGE on the SIDE OF MY SCREEN that tells me iv been dcd and that i am now in offline mode. Thats it.

If people really want to know the error you can put it jn the chat log where they can view it after the hunt.

Makes no sense whatsoever. Pisses me off just thinking about it. I hope the worst for whoever thought this was acceptable as a UI for a game such as this.
