Terrorists these days... They just don't make them like they used to.

Oh, no, they're definitely playing games... Weird, oppressive, shitty ones, but definitely games. I mean, jeez, they just kinda collectively jumped the shark as an entity AWHILE back, I think we can all agree on that... (Not that the Dems are much better, obviously, but at least in general they aren't 'fuck feeding kids at school for free, they can work nights,' comic book villain evil)

I feel so seen rn

Yeah, right, like UPS would be here this quickly (ba dum tss)

"Well, you see, according to parliamentary procedure bearing weapons is HIGHLY frowned upon, as it turns out. Quite beastly, indeed."

"What about the assault rifles they all came equipped with?"

"Oh, yes," attempts to look around room through glasses with 12 foot thick lenses; fails, but pretends to know what's going on anyway, "Well, we'll certainly be doing something about THAT! You mark my words."

"Fucking finally! Are we gonna charge them with sedition? Treason? Ooohhh, terrorism? There's so many choices I-"

"My aides have already begun drafting a semi-official non-binding statement condemning the disgraceful rapscallions and urging them to seek greater bipartisan cooperation and unity."

"Rapsc- ? Unity? Da fuq? CALL THE COPS, MAGOO, WHILE WE STILL HAVE-"

"I assure you, it's quite strongly worded. Oh, he'll definitely be feeling the sting of our retribution soon.... ish. Tomorrow maybe."

As Jon Stewart put it on an episode of The Daily Show following the election, "The Republicans are playing chess and the Democrats are playing checkers"

Ah, I knew I'd find someone with real class in here somewhere

Maybe 'gem' is a bit of an overstatement (depending on your level of musical snobbery 😋) but I stumbled across this song/artist through Spotify at one point and ended up really digging it/them. They have another song I'd give honorable mention to as well, 'Freaky Freaky' I think is the name.

These certainly aren't what I'd call 'masterpieces' or anything, but they're fun songs I enjoyed and you might too if you can listen without thinking about it all too hard

Just out of curiosity, how much space/effort was that to set up? (Yes, I know I can probably google up like a bajillion resources on this exact thing, but I'm a weirdo and am attempting to bring the (non-toxic/shitty) social back to social media)

I've been considering setting myself up a little NAS server since I finally dumped Spotify and am considering doing the same with video streaming too (besides Tubi, anyway), but having one just for mp3/light video streaming seems like a bit of a waste and having local repos of useful sites might be a fun side project to help justify it to myself lol

Holy fuck, as if I needed more reasons to hate Discord... back when I thought it was just a new iteration of xFire I still hated it but could at least see a purpose for it, but it doesn't even do all the shit xFire could

This is clearly fake. No mention of cocaine anywhere

Well of course he does: He's not one of the poors.

Where there's smoke, there's fire woke?

So... We're all just not gonna talk about the fact that 'Root' is apparently a traditional girl's name now, huh?

But how does the pet companion take Polaroids without opposable thumbs?

"Excuse me, do you have a moment to talk about our lord and savior, Paula Dean?"

Has anyone tried explaining to the fire that climate change is just part of the radical, dangerous leftist agenda? Ooh, no, wait - Show it all the carbon offset credits we've got! Cuz those aren't like the 'thoughts and prayers' of climate change policy or anything, and the fire will totally be like, "My bad fam, I didn't realize"

I mean... C'mon though dude, we're literally talking about ONE slave here. If you don't have the political capital and/or diplomatic savvy to secure the freedom of a single, solitary piece of human chattel from an old, racist stereotype alien then are you even really a politician at all?

Besides, if memory serves (which, granted, it's been awhile), wasn't Watto pretty taken with the sweet, chromed out hot rod they waltz in on to begin with? Cuz I'm no businessman or anything, but I'm reasonably sure there's some sort of deal to be made there...

Now, play Starfield and try to wrap your head around the fact that both of these titles were made by the same company.

I thought we were mostly in agreement on this, tbh
