pyre,

nice try DoD

pyre,

wake up calls don’t do shit when you’re not interested in “waking up”

pyre,

when your canoe rental is really going for the SEO

pyre,

some people are hot

pyre, (edited )

remind me, was the S10 the last Samsung phone that didn’t explode or literally fall apart in your hands?

edit: fuck all the downvoters. i have an s20fe. it literally cannot handle hot weather, and the fucking glue gives in, completely removing the back cover. how about some notches and shit? really we can’t make any mechanism for the covers, we’re just gluing things now? is this a Tesla phone?

pyre,

“8 years ago”

holy shit it took me three years to click that link? no wonder I’m getting my ass kicked in overwatch

pyre,

when is kick signing him?

pyre,

transhumanism it how we get those legs and pincers

pyre,

Whenever I look at Data I see Matt Mercer.

pyre,

i think his expressions resemble him as well

pyre,

the real crime here is this death trap being allowed on the road in the first place.

pyre,

dude you clearly don’t know anything about Islam. it neither restricts martyrdom nor the concept of jihad to war.

pyre,

next up, invade random countries… don’t mind me I’m just going through Hitler’s to-do list.

pyre,

this isn’t marketing to adults. it’s marketing to teenage boys.

pyre, (edited )

mighty brave for an emperor to see that their water has changed color, and decide to try it anyway.

pyre,

“i don’t want to see shit like this”

“you can upvote it so more people see shit like this as well”

thanks, very cool

pyre,

pack the goddamn court you cowardly libs.

pyre,

wait, he ACTUALLY SAID HE’S QUOTING HITLER???

when i read the title i thought he said something identical or very similar to something Hitler said maybe without knowing… all fascism leads to the same destination after all, you don’t need to be deliberate about it. (remember how people said TFG was quoting hitler and he said, and i paraphrase, “i didn’t know he said it i just came up with the same conclusion on my own” as if that doesn’t make it worse… kinda like that)

but NO! he literally quotes Hitler by attributing the quote to Hitler without a modicum of irony. dude the israeli government has gone do far deep into fascism that they can’t even use the thinnest veils as cover.

pyre,

i shouldn’t have used the word “government” as what i meant was more along the lines of Israeli politics in general. not that the government itself is much better, they just haven’t name checked Hitler as much yet.

although natenyahu already has engaged in apologia for Hitler himself so it’s not far off anyway.

pyre,

the dwarf is the blacksmith. some fantasy worlds say dwarves have beards on men and women. here the hyena sees the dwarven woman not having a beard and says funny how false rumors spread. and she says it’s not false; we just don’t have it on our faces. it’s lower, meaning it refers to their pubic hair.

pyre,

yes, every “conquest” adds a new ring to the… beard.

pyre,

what annoys me is that no one cared about this until Sarah Palin made a big deal out of someone calling her that and she pretended to get offended for her baby with down syndrome as if it was targeted on them.

but I’m also ok with never saying it again. not a big loss who cares. at least we got a legendary Linus clip out of it.

pyre,

that’s not what we’re talking about. as the original commenter said, using the r word to refer to any mentally challenged person was already a no-no. that law changed official use of the word, not the r word itself used as an insult.

pyre,

if you think people started saying r-word in the 70s you’re out of your mind

pyre,

ok, but the r word was very much acceptable through the early 2000s. it was even casually used on tv.

Colorado Republican Brutally Grilled By Local News Anchor: ‘Why Is Abortion Good For Your Girlfriend? Bad For Other Women?’ (www.mediaite.com)

Colorado congressional candidate and sitting State Rep. Richard Holtorf ® received a tough grilling this week at the hands of local 9News anchor Kyle Clark over his apparent hypocrisy when it comes to abortion rights....

pyre,

this guy comoderated the republican primary in Colorado as well and he was incredible. didn’t take bullshit and put everyone (including and especially boebert) in their place. what a hero.

pyre,

tim pool is probably already making a video about it

pyre,

Premium lets you watch ads with up to 4 blinks per ad without pause or a total of .4 seconds of looking away from the ad without pause.

pyre,

well you can’t stop people from bringing joints by making it illegal; that way only the bad guys would bring joints. instead everyone should bring joints to school because the only thing that can stop a bad guy with a joint is a good guy with a joint.

pyre,

but that doesn’t contradict them

pyre,

so he didn’t need muscles to do anything

pyre,

to be fair to you, technically those are other words.

pyre,

wow, you get one two a handful of planes fall apart in air and suddenly you’re not “reliable” anymore. this is woke cancel culture at work!

pyre,

that’ll never happen. they don’t have good writers.

pyre,

luckily the last time Bethesda had good writing was Morrowind so you’re not missing much

pyre,

yeah but the talking was annoying af. it felt like they had like four people voicing the entire game. meanwhile a small independent studio like supergiant makes a much smaller game fully voice acted but doesn’t feel exhausted as quickly as Skyrim, with thousands of lines both written and performed fantastically. i can’t excuse anything Bethesda is doing anymore. they’re getting worse with every game, both in terms of writing and gameplay.

supreme court justices have lifetime job security to prevent corruption.

every other position in every other part of the government has term limits to prevent corruption.

edit: apparently people are having a problem with the point I’m trying to make. my point is that minimizing corruption is the supposed reasoning for term limits but also lifetime appointment, which are exact opposites.

obviously neither can prevent corruption as we can clearly see both kinds of positions hold lots of corrupt people. but at least elected officials can in theory be held accountable for their corruption in elections. supreme court justices answer to no one. for life. that’s fucked up.

pyre,

democracy? supreme court can call elections for you. and has. wrongly.

pyre,

that’s my point

pyre,

no, but they can surely end it sometime. a president can be corrupt but they have to fuck off after 8 years max. alito can say fuck democracy, blame his wife for it and live the rest of his life doing his best to ruin yours.

pyre,

the supreme court has never been apolitical since its inception, and it never will. people hold beliefs and opinions and that makes up their political views. they don’t suddenly become empty vessels when they’re appointed to any position, lifetime or not.

i don’t get how appointing a lackey is supposed to be a bad idea. if anything, lifetime appointment makes it more important to appoint lackeys so your “rule” stays long after your term.

pyre,

remember that a company can do fine without a CEO. they can’t earn shit without workers.

pyre,

eh, i always feel like good supports can make or break a team. like if you’re a good DPS player, whoopdie doo, anyone without a life can train themselves to oblivion for some mechanical skill but the game sense, decision making and reactions needed for support players are much more impressive to me.

there’s nothing that feels more awesome to me as a (generally) DPS player to take insane risks and get out alive due to supports having your back. never felt like a top/dom in such situations. more like buddy cops.

pyre,

yaaay you’re helping

pyre,

to be able to run for president even if you’re convicted is a good thing.

though in lots of places in the US you can’t vote for the president. seems ridiculous that you can be one. both should be allowed.

UN adds Israel to blacklist for harming children in conflict zones (www.middleeastmonitor.com)

United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has notified Israel’s Defence Attache in the United States, Major General Hidai Zilberman, of his decision to add Israel to the blacklist of countries and organisations harming children in conflict zones....

pyre,

oh no!

anyway, back to being supported by the US

pyre,

then you can’t claim you’re not responsible for keeping the system. the fact that you get exhausted by merely seeing someone say “hey metric would be nice” is why you won’t change. not just this but a ton of archaic stuff everyone else in the world has moved on from.

pyre,

to be fair, that does look brutal
