  1. I clicked on this thread expecting good news! These climate change articles should really all be in one thread. Not that we probably shouldn't all be aware of the inexorable driving off the cliff in a drag racer that this planet has become, but for some of us the magnitude + helplessness of this crisis we face does nothing good for our mental health.
  2. Oh, I'm not sure at all. Edit: yep that's what it was. Maybe someone mixed the events up or were drawing comparisons.
  3. There was a pic somewhere of the food they served, which was a styrofoam box with a pile of lettuce and sliced tomato on top, and a couple pieces of toast with cheese on them. Like I ate better when I was broke and living in the ghetto.
  4. I saw the clip elsewhere and it murdered me. I'm not a dog owner but anyone who has had a special four-legged friend can relate. Damn dude, I'm sorry. I remember you talking about him and I hoped you'd be able to reunite with him some day.
  5. Wow, they haven't lost a step. Back in the day I used to take a Painkiller MP3 and rename it to the level music for Painkiller the game so that I could listen to Painkiller while playing Painkiller. (While optionally also using the game's Painkiller weapon.)
  6. Oh yeah I forgot about that dude. Hopefully his family doesn't forget him on memorial day.
  7. I really think at this point Cate Blanchett is at the IDGAF stage of her career, where she reached astronomical heights of fame and notoriety decades ago and whose name is already etched in the pantheon of legendary actors known for timeless roles in film. What's left for her to do? Oh, I guess Shlock it up with the most outlandish projects she can find (that can actually afford her).
  8. Myself, I never lie about cereal. Although I've been known to enlarge some details to show texture.
  9. This quote here from the end of the article really lays out the long-term goal: This is a war. It doesn't matter if their views are popular or not, that doesn't factor into their strategy. In fact it only HELPS their narrative of Christian persecution. They've known for a long time the voting population has been moving away from extremist Christian views. They've been playing the long game. They don't need or care about the will of the people. The goal through gerrymandering, voter registration restrictions, eliminating polling places in minority communities and on college campuses, and most recently when they upped the ante drastically with the fake elector scheme, voter intimidation, hindering or elimination of mail-in ballots, and the Jan 6 insurrection... That's the real game. Systematic dismantling of the systems of democracy, while sowing the seeds of mistrust among Conservatives in the integrity of our elections. Convince enough people you're right, and put the right people in positions of judicial power, and you have all the pieces for ending democracy, and you didn't even need the majority to do it.
  10. Damn, makes me wish I thought of it first. Could've bought a nice house.
  11. Is English hard for you? I said "at this rate" you'll be able to watch those shows on Netflix. Meaning at the rate of re-consolidation, it will probably be a moot point.
  12. I mean they've been paying all his legal fees, why not his penalties too?
  13. Is this a prompt for Sora? It could be a prompt for Sora. Also, "There's money in that hot dog stand," he said with a conspicuous wink, idly tugging the sleeve of his orange jumpsuit.
  14. Wow, so spIitting off their own service for their own content has resulted in having to merge services and content again. I love how all these companies that tried to take the ball and go home are now being forced to bring the ball back.
  15. Just starting to see some of these videos getting posted. Yeah there are flaws but ot the untrained eye, ie most people probably wouldn't be able to tell. And if we got this far this fast, I don't see those flaws lasting very long. And yeah frankly it's a bit terrifying. I don't know that humanity collectively has the intelligence to cope with this new reality.
