I play Dota and World of Warcraft Classic because no one has made a good game in 15 years.

Update: Still true, no one knows how to make good games.

But there's a new studio of former Warcraft 3 / Starcraft 2 / Command & Conquer devs making an RTS. Pretty excited to see what they come out with. https://www.frostgiant.com/

Mary Poppins was a villain and a homewrecker.

So was Mrs. Doubtfire

The 7th Harry Potter book is a worse ending than Game of Thrones.

Borderlands 2

Braindead loot grind with the most *holds up spork* humour imaginable. Lost interest pretty quickly. I guess it's more fun in co-op but I don't know anyone who has it or would want to play through a game that old.

Borderlands 3 is even more in the same direction. They are games that are really only enjoyable in a group that makes fun of the game.

Well he's a Bernie 2020 Field Organizer, not really some random ass employee.

With all due respect to Organizers and the very important work they do, yes he is. A Field Organizer is typically the lowest full-time member of a political campaign.


Standard Project Veritas shit. Catch anyone saying anything and lie about the context. I just wish I could see a video of all their failed attempts. I've been lucky enough to (likely) see one Project Veritas operative work in person, and they were hilariously ineffective.

"Personal appeal" plastered across an entire race is not personal appeal. Attaching something like "homophobia" to an entire race is the literal definition of racism.

Is racism a bad political strategy? Seems to have worked a lot, historically.

Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil, and Vile

This movie is pretty good. It's like if you wanted a true crime or murder doc, but actually enjoyable. Ted Bundy did nothing wrong.

Also Endgame>Infinity War. Not even close.

I'll see you all in three months when you realize all these complaints with season eight have been prevalent for the last several seasons. The show jumped the shark a long time ago, and at least season eight is embracing the fan service.

Really great book. Mixes a lot of eclectic topics into a nice read.

I really didn't give a shit about the homeless, they do make the place look like crap.

Probably why there's so many homeless. No one gives a shit about them.

Risk of Rain 2. If you want a fun $20 game with up to 4 person co-op, check it out. It's on Steam, and still in EA but completely worth the price tag as is imo.

And as always, hit me up if you want to play.

Why should it take more than one success to prove it possible?

Sciences requires repeatability and independently verifiable facts. This has neither.

What's wrong with vetting potential customers?

Nothing is inherently wrong with it, but since it's not open to the public, it's no different than space travel that's been claimed by NASA in the past. It's not conclusive of anything.

In the early years of computers, they were limited to the elite.  Why should the early years of space tourism be any different?

In present day, I have a half dozen computers ranging from powerful to hella powerful. If space tourism gets to the point I have numerous options in my own home to go to space, then I will accept this comparison makes any sense.
