Fudging Rolls and Slaying Trolls 🇮🇱 🇺🇦

Does Musk realize when he calls people “NPCs” that the boss villain is ALSO an NPC, and whose only purpose is to piss the players off enough to make his death satisfying?

The gov in Methusaleh’s Children is pretty clearly a failure, and in Time Enough for Love, it’s a sparse frontier population. Troopers is the only government of a modern dense Earth he portrays as working, so it’s the most criticized. Most of the time, when he writes Earth, it’s a shithole.

If we fire more Black people and women, planes will stay in the sky. It’s just simple science!

Brandenburg was defended by a Jewish lawyer from Cleveland. You aren’t an attorney until you’ve protected someone’s right to call for your death.

Nazis find token Jew to support them. News at 11.

What drives me nuts is that *Communist* countries realized and implemented this, and yet, we still have these nutballs on the left going “capitalism bad, viva la revolution.”

Who’s stopping them? Israel withdrew from Gaza in 2005, and the PA was offered independent control of 98% of the West Bank. When have Palestinians offered any peace agreement other than “leave the country or die (or both)?”

You can’t invade your own ancestral homeland. You can only reclaim it. Which Jews did, in 1948, after it having been promised back to them by the occupying power (Britain). Hence the problem with your claimed definition, and with trying to relitigate 1948.

He isn’t here on a student visa. He has a green card. ICE isn’t allowed to revoke green cards. I don’t have pity; I do have a respect for law. The first amendment protects people who hate me, too.

Kanye has become the Nazi table. If you like Kanye, you’re a fucking Nazi. If you tolerate someone who likes Kanye, it’s because you are a Nazi sympathizer, aka, a Nazi.

Yes, that includes the ones who run the government. We don’t “have a Nazi problem.” We have been taken over by Nazis.

Can you think of a MORE efficient way to sow mistrust in government and resentment by employees, create an environment rife with error and abuse, and in all other ways, sabotage and undermine government as a whole?

Not saying that I agree with it, but I think the point is “why are we continuing to send food in when it just goes to Hamas and not the people who need it?”

I’m curious; what would have been a “proportionate response?” Picking out 1,200 random Palestinians, lining them up against the wall, and shooting them? If you want to be treated like a serious person, say serious things.

Pretty sure Trump passed that milestone in 2020 when he let COVID loose in the country.

We’re trying. Believe me.

Congratulations on your 100th derailing of any topic in order to make everything about “Palestine.” You win a free Russian flag. But I suspect it’s not your first…

The track record of countries saving themselves from fascism is…not encouraging. I think the only way out is through, and it may require foreign intervention before it’s over. That’s what it took for Germany and Italy, and it wasn’t pleasant.

Well, maybe he’s seen video of how Musk dresses in the Oval Office, and figured this is what Trump’s boss is supposed to look like.

No. Because they are a fake agency. They have as much authority as the Ministry of Magic, and Elon Musk has as much hiring and firing power as Cornelius Fudge.

Manager: "What's this milestone 'Living on a prayer' ?"
Me: "That's the documentation deliverable."
Manager: "What's the status of that?"
Me: "We're halfway there"
Manager: "Why is progress so slow?"
Me: "You fired Tommy"
Manager: "So?"
Me: "Tommy used to work on the docs"

Economic Blackout Feb 28th. Ok cool.
I keep seeing "if you must spend then only on small local."

How about purposefully seek out spending that day at a small local biz (w/cash)?

Start figuring out how to PERMANENTLY shift your spending habits.

If we all did this on the last day of each month...

Something like 70% of Gaza residents still view Hamas’s actions on October 7 favorably, and having a literal dance party over the bodies of the Bibas boys didn’t do a lot to change that perception. It’s neat how the people trying to make Jews out to be Nazis aren’t the ones Hamas has sworn to kill.

I think you’ll have more luck finding wingnuts on Twitter than on Bluesky.

Just wait until they put up their correction and apologize to Tammy Duckworth.

So much transparency.

I wish that people in mainstream culture had listened to us nerds when GamerGate was happening and when the Sad/Rabid Puppy situation was going on with the Hugos. They were movements, writ small, of what is now eating my country.

I’m sure you love it when you tell a guy that he’s doing something unintentionally misogynistic, and he responds by getting irate and telling you that you’re being irrational.

A Jew is telling you that you have stumbled across unintentional antisemitism. Maybe it’s time to pause and consider.

SO MUCH THIS. Progressives will readily acknowledge centuries of internalized racism, homophobia, sexism, etc., but when we point out MILLENNIA of internalized antisemitism, it’s always “fuck you, paranoid Jew.”
