  1. Write him. I wrote mine even though he already stated he would vote to impeach. There was a pretty easy for you can find if you look them up from here: Representatives | house.gov WWW.HOUSE.GOV EDIT: More direct link: U.S. Congressman Kurt Schrader SCHRADER.HOUSE.GOV Congressman Kurt Schrader represents Oregon's 5th Congressional District, which includes all of Marion, Polk, Lincoln and Tillamook Counties as well as the bulk of Clackamas and small portions of Multnomah and Benton Counties.
  2. I'm so fucking annoyed at Pelosi dragging her feet "waiting" for Pence to respond and merely being "hopeful" that he responds today. Just start the goddamn impeachment proceedings and stop wasting time. Jesus Christ she's worthless.
  3. With tweets like this one The thread title should be changed to read "Trump-supported insurrectionists..." @Commissar SFLUFAN
  4. If these fuckers are not all sent to jail after the military-level response police showed to even peaceful protesters on the left there will be no words for how angry I will be.
  5. Thanks. I see what you're saying but I guess I still wouldn't cite him losing the first popular vote and being impeached as examples of stuff sticking to him, because the outcomes were still consequence free for them. They're the "Gilly..." equivalent of consequences. It took to the next election for anything to actually happen as a result of so much. I guess I'm saying there is a middle ground here. You're right that thinking he can get away with everything is defeatist and wrong. But we should speak very plainly about how much he did get away with and push to have that stopped. The system is not working as it should.
  6. I think him losing the first popular vote, but still becoming president, and being impeached for very blatant misuse of power, but not convicted are examples of things not sticking. Him losing this election is perhaps the first time something meaningful will stick. I'm hopeful that NY comes through with charges after he leaves office so we can have some more consequences for this deep corruption. But his term has very much been a term of him frequently getting away with horribleness.
  7. Guess I'll have to rewatch The Winter Soldier. Again. You know, just to fully assess the veracity of this claim.
  8. I don't recall it being implied that Steve and Natasha hooked up either. Re this movie: since I usually find the post Nolan Batman DC movies very bland and everyone was hating on this one, I expected to dislike it. But actually, I ended up enjoying it. It's a low bar, but it's the best DCU movie. What I didn't like is that the HBO Max web player didn't support 4K HDR. Or if it did, it was abysmally compressed.
  9. What's the main theme? Honest question because I've been surprised that I've noticed no main theme for the game at all, whereas it's been clear in every other AC game I've played.
  10. I disagree if for no other reason than I want to encourage devs and publishers to focus on performance first It's a technical marvel just how well it performs (which I know you agree with) and scales and it *feels* so good because of it.
  11. Maybe. It's hard for me to say because you can do a lot of the main quests in any order.
  12. Yeah, it takes you back to right before the point of no return, but with your character level that you ended with and they give you some bonus items.
  13. Thanks. Maybe I just need to give it a bit more time then. Where I was though the RNG felt overly influential.
  14. Not sure if DC PS4 is kept up to date, but I would suspect it is? For me, my strong positive reaction to DC is basically what I'm seeing people have with Hades and I'm a little disappointed I didn't feel the same way. Maybe. I do kind of hate RNG like that My general philosophy is that RNG should be included in a way that forces you to think about risk/reward, but not have a large variance on win outcome as long as you're actually playing well w.r.t. the risk. In Hades, there's not really a strategy to mitigate effects of randomness because it's all independent of anything you do. Instead you simply have to deal with what you're given. DC naturally has a bunch of RNG too, but there are so many ways to shift your starting equipment and it never feels as if it makes big difference on your playthrough and you can still choose between the key styles. In Hades on my 4th run I got to the end of the 4th area because of the items I got (life leech build) and then promptly fell on my face for many next runs because I didn't get those again. I have no doubt a good player can do well without life leech and perhaps even that once you get good there are better builds, but the effect of luck was so significant that it rubbed me the wrong way. I did get better even without that build as I kept going, but then I I just kind of lost interest.
