School logic.

I thought it was a person, witnessing the fall of his city.

I always thought of "Shaka, when the walls fell," as indicating a state of shock, disbelief, or otherwise not understanding what you're witnessing, more so than failure.

Honestly I love interpreting Tamarian meme-speak...

One of these things contributes significantly more to humanity, too.

I had the Envy 2, the last phone I had with an actual physical keyboard.

It's the one feature I miss the most. If I could have smartphone functionality with a physical keyboard I would be much happier.

Doing the opposite of what we should be doing is supposed to be the Republicans' job.

Having spent an unfortunate amount of time debunking bullshit statistics... yes.

The thing that really impressed me was just how much D&D was in it. Down to being able to easily identify individual spells.

And you can't just name-drop Szass Tam and not follow through on that...

I got 19. Maybe I'm the one remembering wrong.

Edit : first non italicized nor parenthetical link. Going through pronunciation notes gets you nowhere.

a restriction that opponents say further marginalizes transgender and nonbinary students

Which is, of course, the point. Being cruel to people they dislike always is with Republicans.

The first non-italicized link, specifically.

And if I remember correctly the longest one found so far is "Gandalf (disambiguation)" at 14 steps.

I really want to like D2. I used to, in Beyond Light and Witch Queen. Even playing through Forsaken long after it wasn't new was still awesome (and honestly, the gunshot at the end of that campaign's story might be the single most cathartic thing I've ever heard).

But holy fuck did Lightfall suck donkey balls.

The difficulty spike was hilariously bad. (Anyone else get real sick of getting one-shot mapped by Cabal rockets? Killing those bastards became an act of public service.) The new subclass felt like Witch Queen leftovers crudely shoehorned in. Gambit has gotten nothing but worse since I've been playing; I have yet to see a single change to that game mode that I could even partially say made it better, not once. PvP feels like suffering, and wow do people take Trials too goddamn seriously for how bad D2 PvP is.

That one expansion with it's piss poor writing and terrible gameplay changes has largely put me off the game entirely. I'm still undecided whether I will play Final Shape or watch a stream of it for the story. I want to see how this storyline ends, but I'm just not convinced it's worth playing the game in it's current state, and even less sure it's worth paying money again to do so.

Saw a video once of a woman in stiletto heels stepping on a kitten. If there was one thing I could erase from my brain it would be that.

As with everything Republicans do, the cruelty is the point.

Negative right. It's freedom from interference. It's not a positive right in that it is not compelling anyone to have or to perform an abortion, only preventing uninvolved parties from interfering in the decision.

... Anyone else first remember this actor as Samson from Carnivale?

I still get the "fuck yeah" every time I hear that speech.

That episode was hilarious though.

The point of Trump is to overturn the rule of law in favor of fascist dictatorship.

Teleportation, hands down.
