Never pass up an opportunity to post this onion (clickhole) article

They tempted the heroes with wealth beyond measure so that by the time they stab them in the back, nobody mourns.

Also because there's probably democrats on the list Also because Bill Clinton.

Making inoffensive microtransactions is such a tightrope walk. Just putting an up-front price is so much simpler on their end.

If that upsets you, kids, tell your dad to make a game worth paying money for in 2025, or to make his 1995 game easily accessible at an appropriate price.

Why are Democrats not going on the news and taking every opportunity to call the Republicans pedo protectors?

This looks less like heroes becoming villains and more like villains (who were always villains) tricking the hero and murdering them. Unknown World's founders and developers of the first game all got fired by the company that acquired them.

Jokes on you, I'm expecting it everywhere.

Secular historical explanations for why the god of the Bible is the way he is (and how he's changed) make so much more sense than the mental gymnastics Christians have to do. Most of the old testament (and plenty of the new testament) descriptions and stories of him are way more characteristic of a tribal deity warring with other tribes' deities than the omnipotent, omnipresent, benevolent creator of the universe.

They really sent mixed signals when they picked a fortress with a storm drain in the wall that's just begging to be exploded. They may as well have a neon "Welcome" sign.

I like how this whole thing reveals how carefully controlled the right-wing info bubble has to be to protect its occupants from reality. Dial in the bias too softly and Grok acknowledges the right is just plain wrong. Dial the bias in too hard and it's literally Mecha Hitler.

So when Viggo Mortensen does it, it's sexy, but when I do it, it's "Home invasion" and a "restraining order violation"

I'd have to guess 'N' first, though. Couldn't help myself.

He could hardly do more damage than the genuine Marco Rubio would do.

Based.

Criminal justice has nothing to do with who breaks the laws and everything to do with who writes and enforces them.

This happened in his first presidency. Time and endless propaganda from the right wing media successfully rehabilitated his image in time to win another election. They'll do the same with his policies.

There's not going to be any evidence left by the time someone else gets access to it.

If you want to find out who's to blame for a tragedy, you need look no further than who's saying "don't make it about politics." They know.

The last time a non-change candidate won a presidential election in the US was 2004. No president since Obama has had enough of a majority in congress to enact meaningful change, and it was squandered. It's not entirely his fault, but as the leader of the Democrats at the time he takes the plurality of responsibility. The ACA started off as a change that could have fixed healthcare in the US but got watered down into propping up a fundamentally broken system.

Trying to deflect a politicians legitimate failures as racism or sexism is so Democrat it hurts. Yes, racism and sexism played a part in Trump winning, but discontent with the status quo pushed him over the finish line. If racism and sexism alone are enough to fuel the Trump regime and keep it in power, then I guess it's time to flee the country, because we're a lost cause.
