You have not eaten beans the right way until you have eaten FABADA.
What makes FABADA so great is that it’s also a hex code for a very sexy pink.

I can get the pokéball, but mounts in games are older than pokémon. That one makes no sense.

It’s not a dichotomy. Capitalism inevitably leads to oligarchy, and oligarchies are just authoritarianism rich people being the ones opressing the people. Both China and Russia ended up as oligarchies too, even though they started claiming to be ‘communist’.
A way to prevent authoritarianism is the division of powers, but that only works until the enemies of the people work together to take over all divided powers.
The only system that has proven to work in the public’s best interest so far is social democracy. But even that is hanging by a thread, as it requires higher levels of public education and better control over corruption to maintain.
- Comment on OG Guild Wars sees an all-new Steam concurrency high during its anniversary celebration | Massively Overpowered 3 weeks ago:
Yeah. All GW1 pretty much needs at this point is just the Beyond chapter of Elona and 2 professions unique to Prophecies, one heavy armor, one medium armor. And having Prophecies and Factions weapon drops updated to the new system used in Nightfall and EotN, with inscriptions and more upgrades, and making the upgrades have fixed stats like armor upgrades, so they can get their own trader NPC.
And then rig the trader NPCs to always have supllies at a premium cost so GW1’s economy does not depend on bots to stay supplied.There’s no way we’ll ever see new professions , and I doubt they’ll ever update the weapon drops. But they have already done some new quests. So there’s still a bit of hope for “Rise of Joko”.

Yeah. Tankies always forget you can’t have socialism without democracy, and either no government or a government that is strictly from the bottom up, and fascists gladly play along with that facade as it works in their interests.
“Authoritarian communism” is an oxymoron.
And not an “emphasis” kind of oxymoron like “bittersweet” or “impossible solution”, or a “poetic” kind like “living dead”.
An “absolutely impossible” kind of oxymoron. like “married bachelor” or “squared circle”. - Comment on The pipeline 3 weeks ago:
Apparently, deboning your meat before eating it is not “manly”. You have to chew the bones, like an “alpha wolf” or something.

It’s the other way around.
X is a “if you build it, they will come” situation. They were already around, they were just too cowardly to come out of the woodwork into the open.

They sure love their fantasy way more than reality.

There are banks that will generate a pin for every transaction that is not using the physical credit card or associated phone, or that is over a certain amount, requiring you to carry the phone at all times.

Nah. Someone would make up some convoluted and confusing template, pass it to Trump as “freedom dates”, and he’s sign it without reading.

The American politicians basically barred the ability for any other party to get into power, until people gave up going to vote, and fascism won by a third of the votes.
It all started before the Red Scare. The moment the Robber Barons got their plans thwarted, they started planning so it would never happen again, and they played the long, long game.

I wonder how will be the US’s method for ‘accidental demise’ moving foward.
Defenestration is already taken by Russia, but Trump is not that original, so I’m guessing he’ll use the same method, considering he’s working form Putin and all.
