  • The article is about the Saudi government killing lots of people. Arguably, for ridiculous crimes.

    You made a comment playing down the seriousness of capital punishment.

    Then tried to cop out by saying you weren't defending Saudi royals.

    Help me understand, what exactly was your point, then?

  • The remaining 166 males were executed for crimes relating to drug smuggling, weapon possession, activism, illegal exit from the country

    Definitely inexcusable crimes solvable only by capital punishment.

  • Granted, I only skimmed the tweet articles, but I didn't see any names shared between them.

    It's almost like one subset of billionaires say one thing and that another subset said another thing.

  • Lego Island.... What a fucking legendary game.

  • Nah, don't let him have that, it'll go to his head like everything else. I'm sure there's more famous rapists.

  • How long is a mooch again, was it 12 days or some such?

  • Dragonball will always have a very special place in my heart. You'll be remembered for as long as I'm alive at least, Toriyama. Rest in peace.

  • You may actually be in the minority. I think it's plenty normal for people that age to have to think a moment about their age.

  • I don't know an adult in my life that doesn't use it the way you and many others here are describing.

    Wonder if this is a regional thing.

  • I don't know how much you think champagne costs, but it's significantly less than 8.7 million dollars.

  • 4k @ 120, but 5k @ 240? How does that work?

  • then not voting for Biden means helping Trump win.

    No, it doesn't, and loops right back around to the rhetoric that started my whole comment chain here.

    A vote for Trump helps Trump win. If Trump got no votes, Trump would not win. The responsibility for electing Trump rests squarely on the shoulders of those who voted for Trump. No one else.

  • Eventually he’ll win or he’ll use nukes.

    Thankfully, not even Putin can launch missiles on his own. For one, I wouldn't expect him to even know how.

    There have been nuclear scares before, and the goodness of man has often prevented them. Famously, during the cold war, Russian computers erroneously detected a US missile launch, and despite being ordered to retaliate, Stanislav Petrov correctly deduced it was an error and did not launch.

  • I trust my friends to distinguish between the people who voted for the cliff and those who, you know, didn't vote for that.

  • I don't have to justify not voting for the lesser evil when I can vote for an option that is, in my opinion of course, not evil at all. I encourage every American to vote, and vote for who you actually want to be the President, not just against who you don't want.

  • I said that as a direct response to someone saying not voting for Biden is like voting for Trump. I wasn't trying to make some general statement. I don't know how else to say that.

    If you want to judge a Trump voter for voting for Trump, judge them on that merit. Don't judge someone that didn't vote for Trump if Trump wins, that's bullshit.

  • I think it's rather disingenuous to say that just because he intended to die, he didn't want the attention. The attention kind of seems like the entire point of the act.
