I am done.
Maybe 14 years of studying politics and talking about it is enough. It was enjoyable while it lasted.
I haven't decided yet, but for my own mental health, it might be time to move on to things where I'll always be happy. I won't delete the Tron account. It will just remain in limbo unless my interest in politics somehow returns.
The Republican Party will likely never return to power again. This election is Pandora's Box, but with no hope left. May God bless America and everyone else who's followed me. It's been a wild ride but all good things must come to an end.
Decided to not write a Tronicle and instead record a farewell message.
"It's the end. But the moment has been prepared for"
- The Fourth Doctor, Doctor Who Episode Logopolis.
Be seeing ya.
I will write a farewell Tronicle. After that this account will be inactive. I might come back but as of now I need better things to do with my life that doesn’t involve me getting stressed over them.
It will be the final Tronicle I write.
@pmulls No I get the point I just don’t like that that’s the controversial thing about him. There’s the bridge incident which would’ve made more sense. But Christchurch where he did absolutely nothing wrong here? Come on.
@JohnEricBentley I have to say. Your acting as a Dad felt authentic when I heard the interactions with Marlene. The “just turned 4” line is something a proud Dad would say. I remember my Dad saying that about me when I was younger.
@StygianSis You needn’t be worried fellow Cloti. If it were a different national environment they’d be in trouble but we aren’t in that one. Wish it was April already.
I know I said I was signing off but one must always say the following.
All hail Gaben. All hail Gaben. O say can you see by the dawn’s early light? What so proudly we hail.
A former Epic Games dev says Steam has become almost impossible to compete with, even if someone builds a better launcher.
Kiaran Ritchie argues that developers aren’t really paying Valve’s 30% cut for its services, they’re paying for access to Steam’s huge player base.
He believes most Steam users simply have no reason to move to another store, even if it offers a better experience.
“They played capitalism so well they broke it.”
Ritchie says that Steam has become so dominant that developers can’t afford to ignore it, leaving them with no choice but to accept the 30% cut.
I will do the exact same fucking thing. All supporters of Ken Paxton, his staffers and Paxton himself will spend the next six years doing nothing but apologizing if he loses.
No tolerance for stupidity.
I will 100% blame Ken Paxton, and all the people who supported him if he loses this race on Tuesday. The only way you could legitimately tell me it’s not his fault is if every Republican on the ballot loses.
Talarico has so much garbage in his past that we’ve not even been able to show because Ken Paxton has had to be on defense almost the entire time.
I don’t know how many times I have to explain this to Republican primary voters. We are not the same as the Democrats they don’t give a damn about any of their candidate issues. They will vote blue, no matter who.
The Republican side simply does not work that way. We have a different coalition that expects different standards. I’m not saying that it’s right, but it’s the way it is.
I understand people did not like John Cornyn. I didn’t like him either, but you had another option on the ballot. Wesley Hunt. The only argument at the time I ever heard against him was Ken Paxton announced first which was complete BS and shouldn’t have mattered even a little bit.
@wildforcongress@HaleyforMI Susan you wouldn't know friends if it defeated you in an election. Oh wait! We did beat you. We did a great service to our country by removing you from Congress and thankfully you won't be back. Even if McKenzie loses we still beat you.
