I know the context but it's honestly much funnier without.

ChubbyEmu used this meme in one of his latest vids. I about died.

I believe it's real. But somewhat rare. I have been a 20+ years smoker and despite a myriad of issues, cannabis-induced psychosis or chs aren't among them. I realize this information is highly anecdotal.

That's not a beholder though, but a cacodemon. Message still stands.

. You’re barely even buying a console anymore, a lot of this hardware has more or less converged. What you’re buying is access to the cultivated ecosystem.

Bingo. In an age where most people's phones have better hardware than the Switch, it's all about access to the walled garden instead of hardware.

Agreed. I feel we've been giving politicians passes on "ignorance" for far too long. First, ignorance is not a defense in any other situation. Second, these people are supposed to uphold our laws and virtues, so they should be held to a higher standard. Third, if you can find a pattern in their "ignorance" which somehow always seems to benefit them personally - they're not ignorant, but malignant.

We're really globally going to return to the pre-WWII status quo, aren't we?

The past 50+ years were an anomaly in humanity's development, but we all collectively fell for the idea that it was, and would remain, the norm.

How wrong we were.

The police still shoot with beanbags. Something tells me the national guard is using live ammo in the same scenario.

End of the line yes. This is no longer something that is recoverable within a single generation. There's some hope that our grandchildren or thereabouts can put things right, but I'm halfway through (40's) and I fully expect every year after this to get objectively worse until I die.

In their defense, they killed more terrible emperors than good ones.

Pertinax though... I'll never forgive them for that. Who knows how the entire world would look now if he'd been emperor for a decade or more...

I suspect people living in Sarajevo in the 90's resent that opinion.

My prediction: he croaks at around 3 years in, Vance takes over temporarily while one of his sons or Jared is prepared to be a "candidate" for a rigged vote after that.

However it goes, USA is never getting rid of this parasite again, even if he dies. Too many critical organs have been fatally infected.

I was mulling moving everything from Google to Proton. Guess I'll keep my money for now.

I feel like most people still haven't accepted the fact that they're done voting. They're talking about weathering a particularly rough 4 years - wrong.

You handed him the keys to the city and he's never giving them back. "Oh, but he's old, he'll probably croak before the end of his term.". Yeah, and that's when you get one of his failsons or Jared as a new prez-for-life.

This is a bed USA has made and they'll now have to lie in it.

The problem is that the original tweet will have been seen by many more users than the reply. And knowing what the public is like...

RIP Peter o7.

Matt & Trey are gonna have a hard time with the new season as well. Almost anything they can come up with will be overshadowed by reality within the week.

Wait, so explicit proof of climate change makes them deny it even harder? Can't deny that all those homes are now gone though, wherever they may place the blame.

Is not?

We're right back to fucking feudalism really. The local lords and ladies all kissing the new emperor's ring, while he's wearing no clothes...

Something tells me the people of Taiwan also better be prepared for the coming 4 years. Trump is liable to just hand it over to china on a whim.
