…because the media and DNC conspired to make Bernie look like he was a crazy person who had no chance (basically the opposite of what they do for Trump). They used classic “tail wagging the dog” tactics to gaslight the left, downplay Bernie’s support, and coronate Hillary.

If they hadn’t been actively sabatoging him the entire fucking time he had an excellent chance.

Does its job well. I would be pretty goddamn intimidated if I was facing someone wearing this in battle.

All of these make sense to me except Ragnar. Did he really have ADHD energy?

If we only taught things that were “useful” then we’d be discarding half the curriculum. Stuff like history, art, and how a fucking analog clock works, is worth teaching, even if it’s not something everyone uses every day.

I keep squeezing my eyes shut and trying to will myself into the timeline where Bernie won.

• Draws rare “convert other team’s best units to your team” card.
• Opponent has used this dozens of times on you and dominates the game.
• Refuse to use it because you hate the other team.

Well played buddy.

If we had had that attitude when fascism was on the rise in Europe we would never have gotten Einstein or Tesla or half of our best and brightest.

We became so much better by taking in anti-facist refugees in the past, it’s funny and sad to see these edgy comments when the situation is reversed. I’m proud we weren’t so stupid in our history, we benefited greatly from taking them.

The Americans that would flee a Trump administration aren’t the ones destroying the planet and acting like spoiled children.

Lol. Opportunity to be on the other side of the brain drain effect but refuse it. Fine, some other continent will reap the benefits of a bunch of smart expats.

I despise the liberals that voted for Hillary/Biden during the primaries more than the right just doing what conservatives always do. I never expected anything other than the current hate and ignorance from the right - but to see so many people who claimed to be on the left fall in line behind whoever the DNC/media coronated, and talking about Bernie like he was unrealistic or crazy, killed whatever hope I had for this country.

Ranked voting should really be at the top of our priority list. Would allow more than 2 parties to be viable and give progressives a real chance to distinguish themselves from the neolibs.

“I enjoy your boobs.”

That’s a high quality gif

To be fair the GOP would happily fund it too

It’s been satisfying watching my configuration.yaml file shrink over the years as more and more things get handled by the UI.

violence is not the same as sex

You’re right, it’s way worse. And it’s disturbing that we’re culturally encouraged to find fun in violence but sex needs to be cordoned off to a containment genre and excised from mainstream art. I’m not saying it needs to be in every action movie - but its been obvious for a while they’re going out of their way to avoid it even in places where it would make sense or be fun.

Apparently I’m the only one that likes being titillated by movies. I don’t get the “it adds nothing to the plot” complaint. Tons of movies have action scenes and gratuitous violence that add nothing to the plot, yet i don’t see complaints about that. 90% of John Wick is gratuitous violence that added nothing to the plot, but I still love it.

I think this says more about American prudishness and people’s unhealthy attitudes towards sex than anything.

Bunch of unnecessary death? Cool and fun! An unnecessary titty? Awkward and gratuitous.

Fuck all of you. I want more nudity and sex in my movies and the comparative lack of it compared to the 80s and 90s feels like we’re going out of our way to exclude a huge part of life from art because it makes the prudes out there uncomfortable. But those same people are happy to watch nameless dudes get creatively and graphically killed for half a movie’s run time.

I want more gratuitous sex and less gratuitous moral pandering

The day I hear complaints about the lack of men in primary education and the lack of women I coal mining, then I’ll give a shit about the lack of women in tech. I don’t understand why society is deciding tech is sexist but the others are just natural preference.

With Home Assistant and locally controlled devices there’s no issues whatsoever. Completely locally controlled and solid as a rock ime.
