I don't know what that means, but it's probably no coincidence that Square's own games started getting decent PC ports shortly after the company bought out a publisher known for being focused on the PC as its primary market. I wonder if those people will be sticking around.

Eh, my understanding is that the brand of "socialism" practiced today in most of the civilized world was well underway in America right up until Reagan came along (dat 93% tax bracket!) and any claims that there was widespread backlash to the New Deal is just historical revisionism concocted to...

It really just serves to underscore how insidious the original bill was. Saddling the state's residents with billions, with a B, in debt to an already insanely wealthy company if they ever want to take back control of the territory? In no civilized country would such an arrangement have even...

Yeah, there's a big difference between saying the Constitution doesn't contain some invisible amendment guaranteeing a particular right that only the 1973 court was able to see with their magic eyes, and saying it bans Congress from making a law guaranteeing said right. You would basically have...

It's honestly a miracle that any country without ranked-ballot voting both among the electorate and within the legislature itself has been able to maintain more than two functionally relevant parties for any length of time.

I seem to recall a recurring chorus of "Abortion is just a wedge issue the Republicans repeatedly hold over voters' heads as incentive to vote for them; they'd never actually outlaw it" on this very forum. In fact, I feel like it was still being repeated as recently as a year ago. Maybe it was...

We'd have to all leave at once, and then nuke what's left because can you imagine what a country where they literally have no opposition would do to the rest of the world?

Man, what is it with Japanese game studios deciding they just straight-up don't want to make games anymore? I guess it's better they sell off their IPs than twist them into gatcha games and pachinko machines, but still. Yeah, how the hell was Embracer not outbid? And how many more things will...

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...

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...

Legal Eagle just released a video about the genuine legal issues NFTs can and have run up against:

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...

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...

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...

AI Democrat: a really bad Jimmy Carter caricature AI Republican: literally just Dick van Dyke

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...

Eh, it's not worth the risk of his DNA samples winding up in the wrong hands.
