I have tried using a kendo sword, which is a bamboo practice katana, and for me the UI tells me "this is a stick, whack your opponent with it", not "the one your opponent is holding is very sharp-edged and will slice your arm off."
Foils I'm merely not very good at.
A “Jeffrey Epstein Walk of Shame” has appeared in Washington DC’s Farragut Square. Stickers resembling the stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame are printed with the convicted sex offender’s likeness below the names and titles of figures mentioned in the Epstein files.
The "Neal just can't write endings for his novels" bugs you?
I never read that one, because "Return of the Native" was enough Thomas Hardy for me.
"We're gonna put boots on the ground in Asia, even though we're confused about whether we're calling it a 'war' or not.
It'll be great!"
Is THAT possibly why Trump decided to attack Iran?
Hey, ignorance is bliss, even though it's not what you want in your politicians.
NEW: ICE tackled + arrested Juanita Avila, an Oregon shop owner who is a legal permanent resident and had her green card in her pocket.
When she asked through sobs why they didn't believe her, one masked agent replied: “Because they lie all the time.”
Video + interview with her and her daughter:
Well, no - there's also the question of whether Jesus is God or not.
On that issue, they're aligned with the JWs and other Unitarians.
(Technically the JWs are heretics, but they're our heretics,
while the Mormons are off somewhere else entirely on their own.)
Oook.
Besides the non-sarcastic replies people gave,
we also import lots of political policy and bullshit from them.
IOKIYAR
My knee-jerk reaction to comments about "treason" is that the Constitution very narrowly defines treason for good reasons,
but the US *is* in a war this time and while this doesn't really rise to "giving aid and comfort", it's at least in the ballpark.
The $7 million in annual recurring revenue that Cluely co-founder and CEO Roy Lee shared with TechCrunch last summer [....] “is the only blatantly dishonest thing i’ve said publicly online, so this is my formal retraction.”
Probably one of at least two...
Boing!!
Bill, Dubya, and Trump were all born in 1946, Hillary in 47, and Biden in 42 (the only pre-Boomer.)
Some people are doing fine at 80, some aren't.
Two. Dubya's also missing.
As I get older I'm coming to increasingly radical views like "you have to do things to get good at them" and "you have to think about problems to solve them"
MAGA's much better at unsophisticated theories of mind.
Not just the pre-MAGA "Iraq will hail us as liberators",
but also their constant total bullshit about what liberals believe.
They're usually better at theories of mind about what they can sell to their followers.
This is nation-state behavior, not cult-like behavior;
Iran's already been having massive resentment and protest against their regime, and if anything Trump will mess that up by giving the regime a legitimate external enemy besides the Saudis and Israelis.
G is The People's Key, and you can play three chords without throwing in the truth...
Yeah, specifically declaring that a large well-resourced country surrender unconditionally after trying* to decapitate its leadership means all bets are off about them doing the same to him.
* Probably succeeded
I'm strongly opposed to that, but I'll unconditionally support
One Particular US-Flag-draped casket being flown around the United States for everybody to see.
Hey, you could fund it for a couple months with the amount of stolen tariff money Trump doesn't want to give back!!
Remember when he was against war and going to cut "our" taxes?
Both sound great - my wife's family recipe for
"Stuffed Artichokes Of Death" is basically big artichokes stuffed with seasoned breadcrumbs fried in olive oil and optional parmesan, eaten by dipping in way too much garlic butter.
My dad had a Prodigy account - 300 baud, displayed in 24x40 on a TV.
I didn't get my own PC or internet connection until ~1994,
but used a terminal and modem at home to dial into work from the early 80s on.
The first time my wife and I remember talking to each other was in the computer center (aka workspace next to the keypunch room) at college. I knew who she was from classes.
We got Mosaic and Doom at about the same time.
My friend Declan was the reporter who invented the Al Gore inventing the Internet joke, which may have cost the world one of its more critical elections.
