It drives me crazy that this country has such a strong strain of legalism in its populace despite having been created in an illegal revolution against the British Empire.

Sekiro pissed me off because I thought it was going to be a Tenchu game when they first showed it lol
Soulsborne games clarify to me how much of my ability to enjoy stuff is tied to mental association.
I have never been able to give the genre a fair shake because I will forever associate it in my brain with annoying internet freaks being needlessly and aggressively elitist about them. I feel like I would probably like them a lot if I didn’t associate the very concept of them with types of people I dislike.
At least I already liked Armored Core and Tenchu before anybody could fuck it up for me.

Yeah, he liked his own comment …

I just go through and start clicking everything, then un-click it if it’s libshit.
I pray for the liberation of South Korea.
I was thinking about how the most fucked-up perceptions of homeless people are pretty easily debunked if people look at information about systemic poverty, the causes of homelessness, etc., but how it basically doesn’t matter because we have so many people who want to believe that there are subhumans among them who need to be culled.
Honestly he should just hang dong publicly. As in, he should just show his cock. Make it about cock. Goad Trump into showing his cock, maybe Biden’s is bigger, and he could win entirely off of USA being fucking stupid.
I’m only 1/16th joking.
Alfred was always depicted as competent, never as senile. Even if they did an “Alfred gets Alzheimer’s” story arc, Batman also has Barbara Gordon, Dick Grayson, and whichever Robin he has lying around to watch the cave.
K-pop to me is like the musical equivalent of extremely over-processed cheese. It’s so corporate I feel like I can hear the execs jacking it to CP in the background of every track.
Smaller communities strike me as more “natural” to engage with, by which I mean, the human brain (or mine at least) seems better equipped to engage with small groups of familiar people than a sea of usernames I don’t know and have no real rapport with.
but when people say they create their own echo chambers Yada Yada thing, even though I would agree with that, it’s interesting to see how people who believe different things, are just amongst eachother.
I think being exposed to the cacophony of “sound” online had given a lot of people strange ideas about “echo chambers.” To me it’s extremely natural and obvious that most people would gravitate towards people they actually like and broadly agree with, rather than toss themselves into online spaces where they’re constantly at odds with the other users. Depending on one’s perspectives and political persuasions, finding those spaces can be fairly easy, or very hard.
Fuck 'em. If Joe / Democrat replacement does lose, be sure to personally take credit.
Pushing a candidate/party to the left (if such a thing were possible) requires leverage.
They didn’t understand this with the whole “Bernie or Bust” thing in 2020 either. Or maybe they did, but either way, they chose to characterize it as petulant. “Taking the ball and going home” was a common way they’d try to deride it.
“President Joe Biden has suddenly passed away this evening after a meeting with Hillary Clinton. Aides tell us he died peacefully, of fully natural causes, which were fully natural.”
The main thing I associate with Warren (other than the stuff) is that indignant, “upset old-lady” face that she’d do if anybody tried even the weakest “gotcha” comment on her. She’d look so strangely hurt by their remarks. Made her look weak, imo.

JOHN BROWN 2
The 1987-88 TV horror-drama series Werewolf. It’s basically just the '70s Hulk show but with a werewolf instead of The Hulk. Guy becomes a werewolf fugitive roaming the US, wanted by a bounty hunter (named Joe Rogan lol), pursues the werewolf the curse traces back to in hopes of killing it and curing himself, etc.
Fun fact, this show was a part of the FOX channel’s debut lineup when it first started airing.
Un-fun fact, this show is increasingly moving into “lost media” territory because of its general obscurity, and the fact that licensing disputes over music rights (such as using the song Silent Running in the pilot episode) prevent it from being re-published on modern media.
If you search for it on duckduckgo, it will likely give you an archive page where you can watch the whole series in considerably-worse-than-standard definition.
Frankly, it’s a series that I would love to see a reboot / remake for, because the basic premise (as well as the premises of various individual episodes) is solid, but the execution is plagued by sloppy writing and weirdly awful editing at times.
Didn’t Obama try to do something like that in his first term? I think he called it his “Cabinet of Rivals” or some shit. It sucked.
Aren’t there interviews with this guy where he practically presents himself as a machine that shuts down when it isn’t doing something profitable? Like aren’t there quotes from him where he talks about struggling with motivation and purpose if it isn’t tied to making money? He seems almost exclusively driven by money, so I’m not sure I buy that he’s not buyable.
