Go watch Andor

That’s what a projection is.

If I learned anything playing Risk, is that you are fucked if you are in the lead… And especially fucked if you go on an offensive.

My dad is about 60. White Midwestern man. Loved trash TV right after reality TV had that first big wave. He loved the one about tow trucks and The Apprentice. My dad thought it was so cool.

I also had an ancient as shit 5th grade teacher in about 1999. She was maybe… 60? Older? She would always say dumb shit like “as rich as Donald Trump, but you guys are too young to know about him.”

In the Sopranos, Tony’s son is coming of age and his dad wants him to go to college so he doesn’t follow him into crime. But AJ tells his dad at one point he wants to becomr a helicopter pilot. And fly for people like Trump.

He was always lurking in the background. Like a celebrity for morons.

Maybe Mexico should have invaded Texas after George Floyd.

Its shocking how so much Russia defending sounds just like the Bush excuses for Iraq. “Well we didn’t find weapons of mass destruction, but the leader was just really awful so we had to, right?”

Incorporating an HOA or a company making a retirement village is not really the same as Amazon or Monsanto funding some sort of handshake with the state government to make some sort of lawless zone for them to take advantage of.

We tried to resolve this with legislation and the right wing crazies killed it each time. It’s not like the average Democratic voter wants an undocumented underclass. The business interests do. And the GOP leadership gets to fund raise on the caravans.

Most Americans want a better life for these people. Step one isn’t to spend a trillion dollars to deport them all.

In theory, the death penalty makes some sense. It’s a right the government reserves for itself (violence) and I think in some contexts it makes sense to be on the table. In practice, it’s more expensive than a life sentence, and it’s a blunt and racist tool to maintain unjust social and state power.

I wish every governor and president commuted 95% of death penalty situations. It’s a major injustice that most executions were carried out, even for those who belief it’s something the government should be doing.

As a kid with controlling parents? Fantasy and science fiction were always my escapes. When we finally got this game it was my everything. Little did I know the sequel had already been out for a while. I still have so much of the game memorized. Every few years I pull out the n64 and play it again…

Right but then someone who doesn’t share your cult might try to get medical care you disagree with or something.

A quick Google shows there expense ratio is 86% which I think isn’t horrible.

People on the internet: well he was never indicted and convicted so we should let it all go

Me: so what was all that money for? Braces?

Newspaper and politicians are never going to challenge capitalism.

Electoral whiplash is such a waste of time

“Baseless? So they could be true and there is just no evidence at all?”

Why do we need laws against standing next to golf courses with guns? It’s already illegal to shoot the president.

It’s a little different because people complained, Pelosi (aka the party listened) acted.

I our current political system, the game theory just doesn’t work for much besides a two party system.

This is hard to verify on Google. What did he do?

Year round, in many European cities you can find the Kathe Wolfhart stores. Omg. It will change you life. Grinches cured with one look at the weihnachtspyramide. The cruelest of summer heats is quenched. Life is good under thousands of handmade, wooden Santa’s.

Yield and volume are also very important factors.
