“Skip to” isn’t quite fair, because the million things that can be done need to be done by tens of millions of people, and not everybody has those opportunities. So for some, “Guess I’ll get a gun while I still can,” is just the next thing they can do after voting and protesting and calling and writing and donating and speaking, because we’ve been taught for a long time that that’s how these things go and the best defense is being armed.

And even beyond that, saying “You Americans” as though we’re all a like-minded group is as silly as assuming that everyone is from the US.

Lmao, so what does your opinion mean?

I’ve been playing through Cyberpunk 2077 again and they’re all bad choices.

The final level of Last of Us had me hesitating, too, because the “right” choice felt wrong. Not that you really get to decide, but it was a cool gameplay moment for me.

Yeah, I think we all had a similar preorder experience at one point or another. There’s just no compelling reason to preorder anymore.

Yeah, man, I get it. Language is complex. I’m not advocating for the reinvention of English, it was just a conversational observation about a silly quirk.

Do you think it’s a matter of choosing a complexity to care about?

Israel’s ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon.

I have only heard a few things, but if the US and Israel don’t want it, I assume it’s something good for the world.

I think in most cases where this administration seems to have a good idea it’s important to remember that it’s likely designed to keep them in power.

A national database that the trump admin controls will 100% be exploited for their own gain, just like every other aspect of government is being exploited for their gain now.

Kinda dumb that apostrophe s means possessive in some circumstances and then a contraction in others.

I wonder how different it’ll be in 500 years.

Seconded. Read it on my own first, ended up reading half of it out loud to my wife just because I was so tickled by it, then put it on for the whole family on a road trip. Such a great story, everyone loved it.

They get to sit in the special red herring chair

I don’t think that the semantic discrepancy is really the point.

OPs PIN is 9565

Extracted by slave labor so it’s blood whale oil.

Isn’t the BC/AD crossover supposed to be for Jesus’s birth?

I just think it’s funny to say Harambe was born 17 years Before Harambe.

I just meant that if you think that protesting there is important then you should organize something. I’m fine with what we’re already doing.

Go ahead

That’s hilarious, I learned about that not too long ago. Can you give me a good recipe, I want to try one.

It was a freak gasoline fight accident

Yep, the Citizens United decision let everyone know that some people just have more free speech than others. This is America.
