Yeah, fuck that. I'll keep my device as long as possible because of course I would! Try for five years.

"Hording"... The fucking nerve to say that... I am actually offended. Whatever happened to "recycle, reduce, reuse"? What could possible be more irresponsible than constantly replacing your devices?

Ok so they're investigating Mark Kelly because he might be treasonous?

Without even going into the benign and responsible content of his words, let's just talk about possible signs that you might be on the wrong side...

Again, they're questioning a retired Navy officer and NASA astronaut on his professional and patriotic integrity... Hmm

I'm up-voting as hard as I can...

Well I do appreciate that response, these are hard questions.

Is abortion murder too? At what point is a clump of cells a human?

This is my favorite sentence of the day.

Yeah, we like to pretend things are black and white, but nothing is simple, there's always another perspective to view things from.

If anyone else is into stories like these, I do also have to mention "Welcome to Nightvale" and "Alice isn't dead".

Dungeons and Daddies (not a BDSM podcast), an actual pay D&D podcast about four dads and a Honda Odyssey accidentally thrown into the forgotten realms.

The players are the writers and director from the rocket jump YouTube channel, they also made a show called videogame highschool. The DM is Anthony Burch, creator of "Hey Ash, Whatcha Playing?" As well as the lead writer behind borderlands 2 (and basically the reason it's a good game).

I bought it a while back on a friend's recommendation. I should actually play it again solo, but at the time, I totally hated it; I just couldn't connect with it. It was way too dark, hard to see what was even going on. And I couldn't care less about the character I was playing or the gameplay mechanics. To me, it was just a fantasy reimagining of left4dead, but without the fun characters, with unintuitive level design, and just generally feeling kind of sloppy.

I might be being unfair, it's been a long time since I played it.

Well, it's a shitty situation in a shitty country, that much is certain.

But there's also a cost/benefit analysis to do here. They have to weigh the likelihood that Trump starts making their job harder, or even impossible to do vs the cost presented by the lack of clarity and possible loss of integrity that reporting like this introduces. Ultimately, they must have decided that it was better to do politically compromised reporting that let the story go unreported.

I mean it's not a good situation for journalists in this country, I don't envy them.

It's a career. But you can age out of it, like pro sports.

Doesn't pay as well as pro sports though...

There are also a huge number of minorities and immigrants, especially if you're including CNAs.

 

Ok Lemmings look, I love life and I love my family, so I'd hate to have to blow my fucking brains out. So what's another strategy for tuning out this incessant lava chicken?

Alternatively, does anyone have a time machine and enough money to convince Jack Black to not do the Minecraft movie?
