• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If the US got to the point of rewriting or coming up with a new constitution, which minds would be the equivalent of the minds today? To rewrite the whole thing?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s plenty of extremely accomplished and well respected legal Scholars and constitutional Scholars and and such who are writing and operating right now. You don’t hear about them much because they’re not you know clickbait Worthy, but they’re out there. There’s no reason to think they are less capable than the founding fathers. We tend to mythologize the founding fathers to an absurd degree.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo is raising the price of the Switch 2, blaming 'market conditions'⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Same here. I’ve been emulating some old PlayStation 1 games lately and man I forgot how fucking awesome Breath of Fire 3 was.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨American workers are tired of waiting.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Uh Oh you dared to criticize the DNC and now you’ve angered the blue maga. Don’t you know that anyone who questions the neoliberal corporate talking points is the reason fascism is rising and nothing else at all?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dems jockeying for Newsom endorsement give passing grades on issue that ignited 'poop map' crisis⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean yeah I would definitely not give Gavin Newsom a good grade on homelessness. However the 50% argument stupid when the homeless population in California is in large part due to its weather and even larger part due to Republican states busing their homeless to California.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What would the next pres of USA have to do to gain back trust for America? Hold a televised event saying the last person was just a fuck up?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s going to have to be a decades long process. Which is probably why it won’t happen, because we’ll need a consistent restraint and level headedness over multiple presidencies. Which won’t happen, best case scenario is a Democrat wins the next two and then the replaced by Republican who is just going to be Trump part 2. It will never recover.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fallout: New Vegas dev says don't expect a remaster, argues Bethesda doesn't have the source code or 'the engineering knowhow'⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They didn’t need to add the last part but I’m so glad that they did

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Slay The Spire 2 Getting Review-Bombed Again After Latest Update⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I would still call that single player. Comparing scores doesn’t make it multi-player.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Never doubt the commitment of horse-girl fans: Umamusume cosplayers are having actual races at tracks around the world⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  y’all

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The way this egg peels in infuriating⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That is one skill I’ve never been able to master. Perfectly boiled eggs I can do. Perfectly peeled eggs nope. Ice bath, spoon under running water, whatever method you got none of them has ever worked quite right. At least not consistently.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is the US headed to a Plutacracy? Like Plato predicted would take place after the fall of a Democracy?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  We’ve been heading there ever since they put a cap in the number of Congress people. I’d say we’re well past heading though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon checks a walkthrough⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You’ve never encountered a video game video that was too long? That’s seriously what you’re coming to me with?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon checks a walkthrough⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m confused by this comment. I know how long the videos are, my point is they are too long. That’s what’s never been an issue for you? You’ve never found a YouTube video that is way longer than it needs to be?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon checks a walkthrough⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Except then you got to wade through a dozen videos all an hour long that are like 55 minutes longer than need to be.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UK agrees to let US use British bases to strike Iranian sites targeting Strait of Hormuz⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  There it is. Starmer can never be trusted.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨18-26 year olds, How do you plan to dodge the draft?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Lot cooler when it is though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨18-26 year olds, How do you plan to dodge the draft?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not sure if they do. Concerned the way the Trump Administration operates it’s very possible they would just declare one and start drafting people. Any lawsuit would take years to happen cuz the Supreme Court would push it back.

  Although even if they did have to I’m not sure if that would be an impediment. Every single Republican will vote for whatever he tells them to. So it could pass in the house. As for the Senate if Trump gets rid of the filibuster as he seems primed to do right this moment then it would be easy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨18-26 year olds, How do you plan to dodge the draft?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It literally says Americans and mentions Trump by name. Was that not specific?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨18-26 year olds, How do you plan to dodge the draft?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Probably a good idea to start teaching the young guns about grenading.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨18-26 year olds, How do you plan to dodge the draft?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Straight to a concentration camp probably.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨18-26 year olds, How do you plan to dodge the draft?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Why?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨House Turns Back Bid to Restrict Trump’s War Powers in Iran⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Henry Cuellar, with strong DNC support, just won his primary by 20 points. Cause things never get better.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pauline Hanson censured over remarks there are no 'good Muslims'⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It does seem to be for the wealthy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Xbox Co-founder Says Microsoft is Quietly Sunsetting the Platform⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ain’t that quiet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jon Stewart on presidential runs and why there's hope for America⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Billy Bin Laden can shove off.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jon Stewart on presidential runs and why there's hope for America⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Celebrity worship is pretty much how we’ve always chosen our leaders. It’s basically how all democracies have always chosen their leaders really. Maybe it’s less the problem of celebrity worship and more who the celebrities we choose to worship are. Maybe that’s the issue.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does anyone else feel like "analog" stuff is more "tangible"?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Well yeah because it’s actually tangible so of course it is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How far do you wear your daily shoes out before bothering to replace them?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Usually until they physically fall apart or there are holes in the soles

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What challenge from a game isn't worth completing and what challenge from a game is worth completing?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Anything involving multi-player is just completely ignorable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We'll probably never see a Grand Theft Auto set in a futuristic city like GTA 2 because the team "hated it": "People didn’t connect with the game or its city"⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Apparently it had some weird weapons, which we’ve never seen in other Grand Theft Auto surely…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spurs Defeat Thunder 3rd Time in 2 Weeks⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The addition of Fox to the Spurs has made them beyond dangerous. This was probably a WCF preview and it bodes ill fir OKC.
