I’ve been saying this for almost a decade now, but if I wrote a book with someone like this guy as the biblical antichrist people would say it was way too on the nose.
I mean, it would probably be a good opportunity for a handful of really rich people to further their control and ownership globally…so as long as our billionaire overlords value human life over their own personal power we should be good.
The only JRR Tolkien game I care about is the fully immersive VR experience where you tell bedtime stories to a young Christopher Tolkien who calls you out on any minor continuity errors you make.
Oh, fuck off, the only reason it got that far on Jan 6 is that he was already in charge and refused to call in troops to immediately shut it down. I doubt Biden sits on his hands for several hours while rioters attack the Capitol.
Just played metal gear solid. Damn, that actually surprised me. The story was good, gameplay was good, and this was all done on the PS1? I’m taking a small break before heading up to MGS2 and figured I’d share this screenshot for all my fellow gamers XD

The polls I’ve seen with/without RFK seem to be pretty back and forth. I wouldn’t be surprised for them to be aware of how he impacts votes in very specific counties they feel they need to win.
The 51-year-old man had smuggled his work into the display at Munich’s Pinakothek der Moderne “in the hope of achieving his artistic breakthrough”, the German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung reported, citing police sources.
I think the simplest explanation here is that they’re getting it from their voters…who are getting it from Russian propaganda, but they just don’t care so long as they get reelected.
This behavior makes a lot of sense if you consider she knows she’s going to lose reelection, and is trying to enjoy the gravy train, while keeping her name ‘relevant’ (with the crazies) for her imminent shift to far right talk show host.

It’s a thinly veiled loyalty test. Thankfully they picked an octogenarian as their dictator and it’s a cult of personality that it seems nobody else has been able to replicate. I expect there is going to be a generational shit show in the party once he (finally) dies.
