"Dysfunctional lawless third world hellhole" is actually exactly how I'd describe the Russian Empire in the 1880s but YMMV.

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog]

It's amazing that these decrepit neocon imbeciles have gotten every major issue wrong for 40 years and just absolutely insist on keeping their streak of unbroken wrongness alive at all costs. Yes, 27 million people immigrated here between 1880 and 1924. The difference is that they came here legally, there was no welfare state for them to leach off of, they were not flooding in from dysfunctional lawless third world hellholes, and they actually desired to assimilate into American culture. Oh and we had 250 million fewer people living in the country at the time. So in other words, it was nothing like our current situation. At all. Not remotely.

Absolutely dystopian day for gamers everywhere. Yes, even you who doesn't care about physical games and has a fully digital library.

All this does is funnel everyone into digital storefronts where PlayStation and co. control the pricing operation. You will lose additional options and pay more for games. Look at any nearby storefront's pricing versus what you'd pay for with that very same game on PSN.

This is not about upcoming handhelds or even that digital purchases outweighing physical. It is about maximizing the dollar spent everywhere and cutting out the middle man. Pulling the trigger when PSN isn't even feature complete with things like back compat, gifting games, has major security exploits, etc. is certifiably insane.

Well, this does make the decision to not buy a PS6 easier, whenever they release it.

The proper way to stop birth tourism is to expel the parents and have the children raised by the military to become a new janissary corps. I see no way this could backfire.

Howard Zinn should have been stood up against a brick wall.

Glaucon: But it is immoral to be late!

Socrates: Say that a man is late to a meeting in which he will be unjustly murdered. Is that immoral?

Glaucon: Certainly not.

Socrates: Then it is not lateness itself that is immoral, but some other criteria?

Glaucon: i hate twitter

@kilovh I'm not sure I feel comfortable in a world where those are the only 2 options. Respectfully, I request to speak to the manager.

[SG @DeadSnark]

@OVTweetmarck He's not bringing new troops, new equipment, new ideas. It's just, "Sergei's back; maybe the enemy will just fall over and die now."

He is an absolutely repulsive person and it is hard to fathom that he could be defeated by someone even more evil.

[Sunny @sunnyright]

It’s almost like it’s actually about him being Jewish, and no matter how much he sells out Israel, the fact he’s a Jew is what they really hate

[SG @DeadSnark]

Not that Altman isn't repulsive in nearly every sense.

[SG @DeadSnark]

Once you've been [minorly inconvenienced], you'll never stop wanting to beat [the nearest Jew] to death with your bare hands.

[SG @DeadSnark]

@kilovh I remember listening to that and Maron stressing out at the beginning over how he'd even communicate with Norm. And then Norm came on and was just...a very agreeable podcast guest. Always defying expectations.

[SG @DeadSnark]

@eigenrobot Then it turned out to not be a joke. Oh well.

[SG @DeadSnark]

@eigenrobot Before the prequels came out, I asked my father why they started with episode 4. He was a fan of the Flash Gordon serials as a kid, like Lucas, and said it was a joke since you had no control over what chapter you started watching and would have to fill in the lore in your own.

[SG @DeadSnark]

@rennyzucker @DJSnM You are not being nice. Why do you lie?

[SG @DeadSnark]

@rennyzucker @DJSnM How do you transport a child across country with these restrictions? Soapbox racer?

[Aelfred The Great @aelfred_D]

hmm

[Jarvis @jarvis_best]

Everyone was mad at me for this joke but then the next day the Pennsylvania Supreme Court politely asked their Soros DA to stop lying to courts in his ongoing effort to free as many convicted murderers as possible.
