I don’t keep up.

As the father of a Minecraft-obsessed kid, this feels intended to fuel my dislike of Minecraft.

So did the movie. And all those obnoxious YouTubers.

Is that it? Is mojang just an elaborate put-on?

Scratch a capitalist and you’ll find a fascist. But yeah gun to my head, I’ll take it. Figuratively speaking, at least for now.

The Nuremberg trials were in my opinion exceedingly light in their judgments overall - too many Germans were guilty to practically execute or jail them all.

The same degree of lenience in this case would be a travesty.

Ah but you see, making a cop uncomfortable is one of the very most illegal things.

Did not know you could throw rats in this game. That’s gonna be the new “shimmying between two walls” of AAA games.

Prof made anon think, so they became anti-intellectual

American prisons are straight up slavery, no extra steps. It’s deliberate.

It still is a right wing position, but the trouble is not right or left specifically, it’s that the empire is overextended with its military obligations, the dollar has been badly debased, the US pays more in debt than its GDP, and despite all our spending, the US couldn’t possibly meet all of its military obligations if more than one big thing happened at a time. The dollar is still the world reserve currency, but only because there’s not yet a credible replacement.

The sad fact is that instead of minding our business, America wanted to be an empire - and empires have a pretty standard lifecycle. I don’t think it’s a question of if, but when, it goes the way of Spain and GB.

My sincerest wish is that you’re correct. And to see it come true, of course.

We Americans used to at least try not to look for “foreign monsters abroad”. I was raised on that sort of old fashioned idea. Do you ever feel like an impossible person from a land that never existed?

He’s reaching LLM levels of sentience in this pic

I am simmering with fatigue after dicing eight onions, two bags of carrots, and two heads of garlic for a big batch of curry

I really benefit from a book called Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents.

Custard’s last stand

Makes perfect sense to tbfh honest

The idea of cyber/hybrid warfare against Russia is pretty interesting. Would be interesting at any rate to see how they like having a troll brigade stirring up their populace.

Fuck yes, perfect

This is the kind of dude I’d invite to a threesome.

Yeah you’re right… The magic trick is liking yourself. I’ll get there, but knowing the trick does make it less magical.
