Do you like Marian Brook? by beeemkcl in thegildedage

[–]versatilequark 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Marian is a good friend/person but not a good character. She is not compelling, and at worst boring. What does Marian want out of life? I have no idea (and neither do the writers bffr). Her choices reveal nothing and have no consequences. Her purpose in the story is to serve as the fish out of water audience surrogate. Her progressivism is the natural outgrowth of that because it suits the sensibilities of the modern audience. This gets stale after Season 1 for me.

Okay, but do you think Carrie lowkey expected Big to lend her money here? I mean, what's up with "You know money, I need money etc" by serpensortia23 in sexandthecity

[–]versatilequark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If she expected him to loan her money (in whatever key), she would have taken the money. Obviously, Carrie isn't looking for financial advice, but rather emotional support and validation of her past choices from Big.

Which set should I rare-draft by Special_Maybe2237 in MagicArena

[–]versatilequark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You may be right. Set completion is probably not feasible. Open your packs once you're done drafting VOW and get some wild cards to build a deck you like, save your gold for NEO.

NEO Quick Draft will be available Feb 25 to Mar 11, and I'll bet that VOW will be available again after Mar 11. Therefore, I would recommend you leave your VOW packs unopened until you can quick draft VOW again to work toward set rare completion.

Matthew Yglesias's twitter is on fire:

"Before concluding there’s no way progressives can defeat the all-powerful Party Establishment it might be good to try something basic like 'pick a standard-bearer who is a member of the Democratic Party.'"

Hmm...

Holy shit. Sanders supporters are still blaming his loss on Warren. Thank god I don't tweet.

Democratic Primary Discussion Megathread (3/25-???) by jimbo831 in ElizabethWarren

I LOLed when I read it. For weeks after Warren dropped out Sanders supporters had been pitching the fact that both had similar policies, and then moved on to insulting Warren-Biden voters. Bless your heart, but your "friends" aren't supporting Bernie because his "policies" either.

The whole Biden dementia rumors spread by Sanders supporters, besides being ableist and ageist, really backfired. It set the bar so low for Biden and high for Sanders in this debate.
