What were you streaming, Silverclaw?

Russian interference should have been fighting an uphill battle, but as far as I'm concerned we gave them a head start.

I disagree with Hillary being a good choice to run against Trump. Plenty of mixed feelings about her long before 2016 within our own party. When the DNC has to rig it's own primaries to get their chosen candidate running, maybe you shouldn't expect an easy landslide at the actual election.

It would have also helped if the US was also an actualy democracy where the candidate who gets the most votes wins, but hey.

You helped destroy western democracy, but hey, at least no-one can accuse you of bias... Oh wait, they did, still do, and are going to keep doing so as long as you report facts.

Hillary was a good choice to run against Trump, the big problem was the media crawling all over themselves to try and push the idea of fairness, and threw her under the bus to do so. Any hint of impropriety was treated as being exactly the same as actual proven criminal acts by Trump in order to avoid being seen as biased... and at the end of it all, he turned around and bit them for doing so because that's who he is.

Many right-wingers are using its name as part of our version of the term "libtards": "Left-green filthy".

It's the only of the "established" parties (it's almost 40 years old at this point) that has remained true to its principles.

Meanwhile, some uplifting news from Germany: While our big parties are rapidly losing voters, and our new "we're not really extreme" right-wing party is gaining voters, there is one other party that is scoring massive points, both in polls and the recent Bavarian state election: The Green Party.

I still think having Hillary run against Drumpf was a bad choice.

Well on the bright side, we know more people voted for HIllary than the cheeto.

I guess many a prepper might have also voted for the person most likely to bring about the end of society they are waiting for.

Now let that sink in, and then think about how many people voted for Agent Orange.

Elected officials often represent how the voters either view themselves, or how they would like to be.

Well I had 8 people watching my stream at one time tonight.. I call that a success...

my latest order from tfsource is coming from pennsylvania. all other ones have come from vegas (or thereabouts). did they move? is there a convention in pennsylvania theyre at and shipped from there?

Unless it's the main cast of Persona 5.

I realize there is a certain irony in my vocabulary selection there.

People who admire public thieves and tricksters are.....sad.

Ah damn it, need to go get some new headphones.

Power was out for most of the day, and now a boil water advisory. Been a great day so far...

Bottom line, he reminds them alternatively of all the con men they grew up with watching on television (i.e. televangelists) or their favorite character from the Bible (i.e. Old Testament God).

Bill Maher gave an excellent explanation for why the Religious Right loves Trump so much.

"NOOOO said the man in washington! It's belongs to the poor!"... oh boy was he wrong.

see also Andrew Ryan

Also, "Big Father" has almost all the benefits of "Big Brother", but with none of the drawbacks.

I'd go with "moron", personally.

Why not both?

I think she was a psychopath.

Ayn Rand was a pretentious bitch.

But Sven makes way more sense now

Man, watching the original Voltron cartoon for the first time is so weird after having only seen the Netflix reboot.

+They don't really give a crap about God. All their religious talk is just part of the mask. They wanna look like the ideal citizen (what they consider that to be) - the most Christian of all Christians, the most patriotic of all patriots, etc.

That's because she was also greedy, heartless, and despised the poor, which is something the right often loves more than God.

I find it rather amusing that the party of the Religious Right sees wisdom in a woman who hated the notion of God almost as much as she hated and feared the idea of being part of a family.

However, another big issue is cultural differences. We do have a sense of humor, it's just different than in other cultures because it is a product of a different culture. Simply put, what you might find incredibly funny is considered unfunny by Germans... and vice versa.

It's actually a multi-faceted issue. Yes, some Germans are incredibly devoid of humor, although those people exist in other countries too. I have no ideas regarding statistics, but these people exist.

So, about this long-standing stereotype that "Germans have no sense of humor"...

I got enough Rand fighting my way through the Sword of Truth series. I can't imagine trying to read the original work.

All the people who like Rand should go live in a big underwater city. I cannot foresee anything that could go wrong with such a scenario.

Everyone needs to stop reading Rand

Gotten a new Gundam gunpla toy model kit 

Ugh it's ridiculous how some people worship Rand's ideas.

That's one of the things the old cable companies got right: Only one or two options per area. The illusion of choice.

business types need to stop reading Ayn Rand.

The streaming services are starting to get too saturated and start canabilising each other.

Good thing I never bought into VRV...Funimation is pulling out. And I got into HiDive at $4 a month.

The restauraunt messes up your food, you complain to customer service. Complain to 911 when you get food poisoning from said food.

Ugh. I hate people sometimes.

I mean, white people are calling the cops on black people for random shit lately, it appears.
