We are Canada's pants.

Ah. The forgotten lands, according to some maps.

It's not about how people vote. It's about getting people to vote. Emotionally charged people are more likely to vote/volunteer/donate etc.

I'm talking out of my ass by the way, I have nothing to prove any of this.

My pet theory is that this was said specifically to destabilize the US. As others have said, this is not new. China has been saying this for a long time. But 100% the GOP is going to call Biden weak for not shutting Xi down and instead saying the US supports a "One China Policy " without any critical thought as to what the dynamics are.

This is to fire up the right wing base.

I disagree. Playing for fun would mean using a controller. Playing for fun would mean using a mouse and keyboard. Playing for fun is NOT finding out if you use your wrist or arm to aim. Playing for fun is NOT finding optimal sensitivity. That's for competition.

He's comparing how he plays for fun with how others play for competition.

I kinda wish the article has expanded on what he said, if anything. Does he still think they are well made games even if he doesn't like the direction?

Like, I don't like the new Zelda games, I don't think they have stayed true to the original Zelda (not you Zelda II) games. That said, I cannot deny that a lot of care and polish went into them, I just don't like the direction.

Sure, the new God of War games are not the original avatar-of-rage Kratos but they are still exceptional games.

We should make our own server

I thought the same thing. Here's the archived Texas Observer article on it, which is what this article's source seems to be.

Apparently the principal heard from another student that this kid was "making threats" against her. Sounds pretty thin to me.

I'm not even mad. I'm impressed, that's amazing.

That post is outstanding and is a wonderful writeup that highlights the danger of associating with a company as morally bankrupt as Meta.

There is concern that Threads will use embrace, extend, extinguish to depreciate the ActiviyPub protocol. Essentially, they adopt the open standard, expand on it with proprietary additions, then when everyone is using the modified standard they drop support for the open standard and now everyone has to play ball by their rules.

Well two things. One, the bed has that weird slope on the side meaning you have to get things directly from the tailgate if you aren't tall enough to reach over.

The second and more important factor: the target demographic. Country boys that do that kind of shit deride electric vehicles.

I was gonna find a fun obscure trope to link to but then I looked up and an hour had passed

I thought it said Transformers and I was like "why do they avoid mirrors?"

The antenna looking piece of wire is the ground so it doesn't matter if it picks up anything.

They're pretty much the same. I think anarchist took Jolly Roger and expanded on it. Worth mentioning, don't actually do any of the stuff in there. The chemistry is suspect and the tech stuff is laughably outdated.

Zelda BotW and TotK are not fun. The stamina system is pointless and the weapon durability is frustrating. On top of that, the world's are just sooo empty. There's really nothing in them. Oh look, an interesting ruin... it's another repetitive shrine. Oh, that geological formation is really unique aaannnddd it's another fucking korok seed. That's all you ever got for exploring. Shrines and korok seeds.

I did like slapping random shit onto my weapons in tears of the kingdom though. All in all to me the games are fine but not really Zelda games.

What does any of that have to do with Republicans trying to subvert the ballot initiatives in Ohio? Which is what this post is about.

My issue with what you are doing is that your comment here, and most of your other political themed comments elsewhere, are always taking aim at the democrats. Yes, there is a lot to be said about the current democratic party, what they haven't done and perhaps more importantly what they have done, but in my albeit really quick scroll through your comments I don't think I saw you actually talk about how Republicans are fucking shit up, only how democrats are failing.

What democrats did 80 years ago on the federal level is completely irrelevant to what Republicans are doing right now on the state level in Ohio.

Which politicians? Don't use a vague term and "both sides" this.

I'll accept the risk. I need the clicky
