@latestinspace It's wild that we were spending several million dollars a year to have less than a half dozen people maintain a drupal page. I'm only upset that they couldn't get fired twice.
@LibsEatBoogers@MaxVelocityWX@iSinGaming Most Connecticut forests are growing in six inches of topsoil over bedrock. You're guaranteed to knock over at least a few trees with gusts a lot gentler than this one.
@arstechnica "The rule would make political priorities the prime determinant of what science gets funded"
I hate to be the one to break it to you, chief, but that's the way it's been for a very, very long time.
@hisbelovedsleep There's nothing bizarre or even uncommon about it. I've spent the last decade watching family members work themselves up into hysterical palpitations over the villainous plans of a phantasmagorical version of Donald Trump that has never even once come close to existing.
@Anc_Aesthetics@jaketapper Yesterday we thought it was going to be 7-2 against us while the left was certain it was 9-0. It's 5-4, we've got the wind at our back, and you're here trooning out like a Hillary voter on election night. Take a breath.
@SomethingUNATCO "There is NO reason to troon out over this unless you just enjoy wallowing in your self-pity."
That's the core of the problem. For a lot of the coalition trooning out has been the only viable source of political dopamine that they've ever known. Bad habits are hard to break.
@based_white_boy@Rw_Appalachia How young are you? The GOP spent decades giving job security to perpetual losers while doing everything they could to avoid implementing policy that was popular with the base. This only started changing when populists got directly involved and forced the old guard out of office.
@dbongino The socialists, trade unionists, and jews that they were coming for were actually all just communists, so in reality they were only gunning for the communists and everyone else was perfectly fine and supported "Them" in hunting red by an overwhelming margin.
@ChristianHeiens "We need a second Scramble for Africa"
We only need a second Scramble for Africa so we can convince the Chinese to go all in on it first and exhaust themselves trying to civilize the uncivilizable.
@unirespecter When I imagine hell I just imagine the day to day of people who are completely deranged and miserable in life, and then just think of that state of being continuing unreflectively forever. Hell is a liberal reading a feed filled with Donald Trump posts, unwilling to ever stop.
@wow_nanana@tiffanyperky@CultureCrave He's a terrible outliner and can't figure out how to get to the ending that he wants. He also saw the negative audience response to his preferred ending in the show and now doesn't think it's worth the effort. Better to get praised for the good ending in people's imagination.
@DAKKADAKKA1 Tucker has always been a hollow suit. He'll remake himself to follow whatever affirms his audience best, and right now his audience is a Qatari paycheck and an increasingly international viewer base.
@ChristianHeiens Groypers will never get actually involved in politics for the same reason most football fans will never get on the field. It's just a spectator sport for them.
@BigDickBarclay The deportations can't come soon enough. I am tired of all of these United States App Store accounts that display nothing but Account based in South Asia posting habits.
@johnkonrad Because the war was never as inevitable as you assumed it to be.
There's also nothing stopping you from picking up a hammer, going outside, and starting that inevitable war.
So, why are you posting when you could be starting that war?
There's your answer.
@mindofgeometry@WesternLensman The hunter gatherer doesn't care about what the herdsman did to "discover" all of these cows. He just wants them to be equitably distributed among the tribe so everyone can eat.
They're not stupid per se, they just have a mindset that's completely alien to civilization.
