    The Nintendo Thread of Jumping, Slashing, and Home Decorating

    There absolutely is. They're in complete control of their platform and can make whatever demands they want, knowing very few third parties will refuse. This isn't even like the streaming-off-a-remote-server nonsense where publishers had a valid reason to say it was that or no game at all. As...

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    In light of the conversation we just had, I suspect he's just hoping for another bribe settlement.

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    Haven't CBS and Paramount been a single company in all but name this whole time anyway? And wasn't the fake split entirely voluntary? Why was there any friction toward them re-merging in the first place?

    Harris-Walz / Dems

    My "even the worst presidents get one" list already had one thing on it from the previous term, but damned if I can remember what it is anymore. Call it an unfortunate (for him) side effect of everything he does being a distraction from everything else. As a backup, we've still got the penny...

    Nobody has the intention to invade Ukraine

    I guess this is what Trump meant on Monday about Russia having 50 days to end the war. The question is, was it his idea, or the NATO leaders'?

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

    There's a difference between "knowing" Trump hired child sex slaves from the world's most notorious child sex slave tycoon, and having copies of the receipts circulating all over the world. For one thing, we've "known" it since before the dude took office his first term, but now his own cult is...

    LGBQT+ News & Articles

    I've always assumed that dating "apps" are in fact already services piggybacking on the trendiness of Being An App just like all the big-name social networks do. Am I wrong?

    Ranting about quebec: newspark edition!

    So I kind of glossed over this at the time, but somebody in a YouTube video brought it up again recently in a way that made it a lot clearer that there'd be a real conflict with the First Nations if the separatists ever actually got their way. As he put it: "I'm looking forward to the day when...

    Hey instead of running Newsom for president, how about the guy who runs his social media accounts?

    Conspiracy lunatic thread - people who believe in absurd nonsense are dangerous

    It's not stupidity, it's malice. Malice towards people you've decided are the Bad Guys and not toward the people you've decided are not. What one chooses to believe and not believe is, ultimately, a choice, and choices have motives behind them. And that's especially true of politicians, who at...

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    I mean, if you had been caught doing what Epstein had done, and it was already known by the general public, would you have any reason left to want to go on living? Even the prospect of selling out everyone else out of spite would only fend off the intrusive thoughts for so long, and all it would...

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

    "Truly repulsive and disgusting" is pretty extreme language for a Republican to use against one of their own, especially since they've been known to excuse far worse than cheating on his wife (even if it's with a man). But he is a cabinet member, after all, so there's no risk his vacant seat...

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

    Either that, or they're such cartoon villains that they've actually got the Dick Dastardly impulse to cheat at every single opportunity even when they're already well ahead. (EDIT: I mean, that's exactly what Watergate was, wasn't it? There's precedent for this in our own history!)

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    I guess one would normally expect such a successful and high-profile grifter to be a little cleverer than just collecting credit card numbers and then hitting them with blatantly fraudulent charges. And maybe there was a time when he would have been. But at this point, why bother? He could...

    Yeah, well, the last time the left and the right united over something, it lasted about a week before the right got bored and moved on to hating minorities again.

    Wait, is Grok open source? Can anyone just spin up their own instance of it? How did the guy who refuses to let people fix their own damn cars sign off on that?

    Or she knows that her party won't control the government forever, and wants to preempt Democrats using it as a pretense to prosecute oil companies without having to pass any laws of their own first. Because lord knows the Democrats in Congress are utterly incapable of taking decisive action on...
