  It’s called DARVO. He learned it from Roy Cohn.

  The reality is that Donald Trump — like narcissists and psychopaths everywhere — is a practitioner, a devotee, of DARVO. DARVO refers to behavior by a wrong-doer after they’ve been called out for their misdeed: “Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender.” Simply put, it means that once confronted, an abuser will vigorously deny it and claim to be the actual victim. “I know you are, but what am I?!”

  Does a reboot fix the issue? Seems like it’s recognizing something as a phone number which isn’t a phone number. A reboot might reset whatever daemon is causing the issue.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Has google stopped working for finding anything?⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s why I switched to DuckDuckGo. At least there I can find the result in a few pages. Google doesn’t even respect operators anymore. Want to search for enterprise but don’t want car ads? Good luck finding captain Picard through all that nonsense.

  This is what happens when the bard rolls a nat 1 perception while making his album covers.

  And the wind or lack thereof.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is the word Alphabet literally just a conjunction made from the first two letters of the Greek alphabet?⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Spanish is similar. For spanish the word is abecedario.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When characters in a cartoon start speaking a different language do they get someone else to do the line or does the voice actor learn the line on their own?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I totally thought so too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When characters in a cartoon start speaking a different language do they get someone else to do the line or does the voice actor learn the line on their own?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Nyet?!

  That episode is one of the greats.

  The music that guys plays on ship is awesome. I have the belter version of highway star in my music and play it every now and then.

  I once asked Chris Parnell if he knew spanish since he speaks it a lot in Archer. He said they give them phonetic lines and he doesn’t know any languages besides english.

  I read the summary of the abstract that a journalist with no science degree wrote.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Having fun with probability models⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  as far back as the 6th century

  At least 800 years before that, maybe more. Eratosthenes calculated Earth’s circumference around 240 BC. I would assume you have to believe the Earth is round is if you’re measuring a circumference.

  The whole country doesn’t speak french only Quebec does. Similar to Louisiana.

  Im just quoting from wikipedia in my comment above so if you don’t like the definition take it up with them.

  Latin America designates the set of countries in the Americas where a Romance predominates: Spanish, Portuguese, or French. Thus, it includes Mexico; most of Central and South America; and in the Caribbean, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and Haiti.

  So we get two good villains?! I’m down 100%.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New Villain Actor For ‘Star Trek: Discovery’ Is Hyping Season 5… And His New Ship⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  That guy’s gonna be a good villain I bet. He played the spy in season 1 of The Expanse. The spy who had the camera eyeball.

  swivel the faucet into the middle position and dispense water directly onto your floor

  Or directly into a bucket.

  I just use a safety razor on my head. After the first few times cutting yourself you’ll either get it or give up.

  At the rate of current global warming you don’t have to wait long.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would you prefer if games had a separate difficulty setting for boss fights?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I like Jedi: Survivor’s method of accessibility. They let you slow down the game if you need a little more leeway with the bosses. You can crank that slider down to like 10% speed and it’s like being Neo in that scene where he dodges bullets. You can still fuck up but it’s pretty easy. I used it for the platforming because I hate platforming so much.

  They sound really close. I had to look up who Roiland voiced to figure out who had new voices.

  I’ve authorized the local authorities to drag you out of there. Just go limp. Don’t fight them.

  Oh man Ransom is becoming one of my favorite characters.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Drew Barrymore’s 3 co-head writers aren’t returning, even after WGA strike lifts⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It was not clear from the sources why the three writers are not returning.

  Barrymore was criticized after she announced in September that she would resume “The Drew Barrymore Show,” a daytime talk show, even though the strike by the Writers Guild of America had not yet been resolved.

  I wonder if these two things could be related? /s

  Yeah Laezel is 50% of the time murdered by me or I let shadow heart do it when laezel finds out we have the artifact.

  You should let her live once just to watch shadow heart murder her. It’s cathartic.

  I’m on my 6th or 7th playthrough. 270 hours in and I still keep finding stuff. Today I found a secret cave in Underdark with Kuatoa worshipping a red cap. Game of the year for sure.

  Gotta go for VOY season 4. Lotta great episodes in that season.
