  • I want him to get drunk, go on a podcast, and just spill the tea. What does he really think. I mean, I think I know, but I'd love to hear his honest opinion of the games that were played, who dropped the ball, and what he thinks of all the players, outside of what we glean from the filings.

  • Maybe, maybe not. Looking at the answers from her "AOC and Trump" voter cross-section, it seems like you just need to run someone who's "genuine." Both of them are seen as genuine or real (whether that's true or not, it doesn't matter).

    Populism can cut both ways and AOC might be just the ticket we need.

  • I queued with two guys in a video game Wednesday morning who spouted that line. I was taken aback. How do you effectively respond to someone who says that? I didn't handle it well, but I have thought about it a lot since it happened. I remember playing with shock humor when I was in high school, but that is beyond the pale.

  • This the the answer. The two major tenets of his platform are "raise tarrifs" (inflationary!) and "deport immigrants" (raising costs on production). Shit is going to get more expensive, but it won't matter if facts continue not to matter and you have a boogieman to shake your stick at.

  • Same thing with Twitter. I went from seeing a linked/embedded tweet and clicking it to really having a bit of a crisis in the form of: "do I really need to click on that or can I do literally anything else to get the same information?" (e.g. how I saw facebook/instagram links before)

  • The Pledge of Allegiance is what kids say, not the Star Spangled Banner. The Pledge is a little light on drama and more nationalist than patriotic imo. Not too terribly bad, except for the "under God" part they added in 1954.

  • Want to throw me an invite? I really want to try it, but none of my friends are on it. I stopped playing OW when they jumped the shark and announced OW2. You can only play if you know someone who is playing, right?

  • I know this is about Fox, but I want to continue to share that neither is NPR. It is an independent nonprofit that operates independently of the government and gets less than 1% of it's operaiting budget from federal sources.

  • For the optical media side of things, the name was coined by Phillips while they were consorting with Sony to develop the standard and named it the “Compact Disc” to compliment their already existing “Compact Cassette” product. They developed an official logo for the format which spelled it “disc.” That’s been with us ever since.

    Didn't LaserDisc predate Compact Discs?
