  1. Shit, one of you posted this great tweet comparing being an American right-winger nowadays to playing on a slot machine, and I don't know where it is or who tweeted it. So many pages. This is why I wanted a separate election night thread.
  2. I moved so you're just gonna see a TV plopped on the ground next to a PS5. It will be a bad photo. Though damn, the thing is fucking huge. I'm with @sblfilms in that it looks a lot better sitting next to the TV, but I never had a problem with its look to begin with. There are very few times I thought a console looked bad.
  3. The Biden team didn't say that. From the article: "The left wing’s publicly aggressive tactics could lead Biden to just tune them out altogether. “If all you do is escalate, then people eventually think that you’re enemies and not friends and they're like: ‘We don't negotiate with terrorists,’” said JESS MORALES ROCKETTO, a Democratic strategist who supports many of the left wing’s goals."
  4. Former Notre Dame coach and ESPN analyst Lou Holtz says he has COVID-19 SPORTS.YAHOO.COM Holtz, 83, has previously compared playing college football in the middle of a pandemic to the World War II storming of Normandy.
  5. tbh, this seems like an incredibly hard year to do a GOTY with six nominees. Just looking at Metacritic, there's a lot of 90+ games and plenty of notable high 80 games. Persona 5 Royal - 95 The Last of Us Part II - 93 Hades - 93 Half-Life: Alyx - 93 Ori and the Will of the Wisps - 93 Microsoft Flight Simulator - 91 Demon's Souls Remake - 91 Crusader Kings III - 91 F1 2020 - 91 Spelunky 2 - 91 Animal Crossing: New Horizons - 90 Yakuza: Like A Dragon - 90 Dreams - 89 DOOM Eternal - 88 Tetris Effect: Connected - 87 Final Fantasy VII Remake - 87 13 Sentinels - Aegis Rim - 86 Marveks Spider-Man: Miles Morales - 85 Nioh 2 - 85 Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time - 85 Assassin's Creed Valhalla - 85 Ghost of Tsushima - 83 I mean, I know we're not gonna see sports games in these games of events in the GOTY running, and there's a big difference in my eyes to how people reacted to GoT versus Crash 4 in terms of notability (nothing against the latter), but I feel you could ask 10 people who played all of these games what their Top 6 were and you'd get a lot of different answers.
  6. Astro Bot was a great game and cute as hell. Astro's Playroom is a cool introduction to the Dual Sense and cute as hell. In the first level of the Memory Fields(?), I lost it at
  7. No consensus that I know, but I know at the time it was being implemented for the 06 midterms, Paul Begala and James Carville were not fans of it. Begala described it as this: "What he has spent it on, apparently, is just hiring a bunch of staff people to wander around Utah and Mississippi and pick their nose." Carville thought they could have won bigger in 2006 if more money was used in certain swing districts, but the two-fold wins of Democrats in 06 and 08 speak for themselves. It seems like Dean's strategy was getting young people in local offices in each state and grooming them to be rising stars in the party later.
  8. I honestly thought coming back that there was a robust discussion about the article. As usual, I second GOH and SBL coming back for the betterment of our crusade against the Galactic Empire.
  9. This is what I was thinking: basically something that counts on people to uphold democracy in good faith but can easily be abused.
  10. The emphasis on that last one is mine due to comments @sblfilms made about people telling his dad he's "one of the good ones." And finally (though you should read the whole thing):
  11. There was a secret door in the SOTC Remake, wtf? I DID find that lovely Easter Egg to Last Guardian, but I didn't know anything about a door.
  12. Also, DO check out the interactive county comparison in the NPR link: You can look at each county to see how they shifted from 2016 (top) to 2020 (bottom). Even if the counties voted the same way, how they voted made a difference.
  13. How Biden Won: Ramping Up The Base And Expanding Margins In The Suburbs WWW.NPR.ORG Remarkably few counties shifted in the 2020 election, which saw sky-high turnout. The president's base voted in big numbers in rural areas, but Biden's gains in the suburbs propelled him to victory. Caveat to this map: ballots are still being counted, especially in New York.
