    P&R Funnies!

    One thing purveyors of leftist comedy do have in common with their counterparts among the right is a tendency to forget the difference between telling comedy and punditry. My acid test, at least when it comes to people on TV, has always been "Are they cheering more than they're laughing? Then...

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    Naturally it's for the one instance of him actually displaying signs of a conscience, albeit a selective one. Actually that might be putting it lightly; hookers-and-blow parties are the kind of thing you hear joked about all the time by Republicans' opponents, but this is the first time I've...

    Christian Evangelicals - not all are made equal

    The Bible: "There is none righteous, no, not one" John Calvin: "We take nothing from the womb but pure filth. The seething spring of sin is so deep and abundant that vices are always bubbling up form it to bespatter and stain what is otherwise pure.... it is certain that there is no one who is...

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    He's just saying the quiet part out loud, and not only on behalf of his own party. Wisconsin was under Democrat control when Rusten Sheskey was given a slap on the wrist and when Kyle Rittenhouse was found not guilty. If Democrats were any better than this, half the states in this godforsaken...

    Looking back on the 2003 Iraq war

    Absolutely. If you weren't there (or weren't paying attention at the time) you have to understand that, to Americans who opposed the war, Bush was Literally Hitler in the same way Trump was Literally Hitler. It was a sentiment shared by leftists, mainline Democrats, and those who would...

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    The whole damn internet was a mistake, but Twitter especially. Thing is, 100% of the people who actually used it and are planning to go somewhere else will just make wherever that is just as bad because the problem, ultimately, is people.

    I wonder what you're looking to as signs that he's disliked by his cult. If it's the vaccine thing, I guarantee 90% of them never saw that (because Fox News refused to air it) and the other 10% probably already brainwashed themselves into believing it never happened. From what I've seen, he's...

    By the way, I was reading about the Marjorie Taylor Greene hearing because it turns out they're actually trying to ban her from running for reelection under the terms of the 14th amendment, and I noticed this: And my immediate thought was, do they have to wait until he actually announces that...

    Ugh, don't make me think about the dignified state funeral he's probably legally entitled to get. Guy like him oughtta be dumped into a pit for people to piss into. Being already dead when that happens is optional.

    Sonic The Hedgehog

    Exactly. "Remaster" at the bare minimum implies some amount of replacing existing graphical assets with higher-resolution ones, marketing be damned. DuckTales Remastered was a remaster. BioShock 2 Remastered, even though it's as unstable as a Bethesda game and all the textures were cheaply and...

    I'm kinda surprised Qanon haven't been subjected to grifters who look convincingly like JFK claiming to be him and... I dunno, I'm not creative enough to cook up an evil scheme, but there's gotta be some way they could take advantage of the situation, right? But if they end up believing the...

    Sonic The Hedgehog

    I mean, I guess in the sense that it doesn't literally look worse in any noticeable way I guess, but it's literally just the exact same graphics in the same resolution with widescreen support added. Also, it's been pointed out that it's half the games that were included in those PS2-era...

    They couldn't come up with three; Ben Carson is dead. And they're pretty sure they're both the same thing.

    Sonic The Hedgehog

    Doesn't look like much of a "remaster", judging from the trailer. I'm still waiting for a 2D Sonic game animated entirely in the style of the Mania intro cutscene.

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    It honestly puts me in mind of those Looking Glass Studios games from the '90s and early 2000s, where there'd invariably be some conflict in the background between two different extremist groups that are clearly both bad. Like, turn all the knobs up to max and you could literally make a BioShock...

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    The motivations behind this pushback are monstrous but I don't know why letting a megacorporation run its overpriced theme park like a cross between a company town and Galt's Gulch is a good thing either.
