Backpedaling on the "unconditional surrender" demand by saying we'll tell them when they've surrendered is so funny

Isn't the idea supposed to be that it's countering the multiple GOP attempts to gerrymander and we don't know how all of those will end up so Ds have to try to squeeze as many as they can

[looking in a mirror] i think this doppelganger version of me is conscious because look, every time I frown it also frowns

This helps clear up what it means in a military context but when Hegseth uses it I don't think he's drawing a careful distinction between "speed and force vs explosive ordinance", he just thinks it sounds cool

Shocked that years of kissing Putin's ass has not paid any strategic dividends

Imagine seeing this stunted adolescence and not just finding it kind of pathetic.

I mean I *like* a lot of these things and I find it embarrassing, because I understand that real life isn't a movie and it's childish to treat it like one.

One great reason not to go around boasting about ushering in a new β€œGolden Age of America” before you have any evidence that your policies are having any positive effect is because it looks silly. If it ends up your policies are actually having a *negative* effect, well…

I know The Pokemon Company put out a statement saying it's "not affiliated with any political viewpoint or agenda" but

"Special Envoy for The Shield of the Americas" is the closest we'll ever get to that scene in The Naked Gun reboot where Liam Neeson looks around the room and comes up with the fake name "Cherry Roosevelt Fat Bozo Chowing Spaghetti"

Noem was relatively smart and evil and Mullin is dumb as bricks and also evil so basically we're hoping he's too incompetent to be as effective at the evil

Scott Pilgrim EX Review - A Short But Sweet Millennial Nostalgia Romp Scott Pilgrim EX doesn't reinvent the wheel for the brawler genre, but solid mechanics complemented by excellent art and music carry it for its short playtime.

I actually now have a third review this week if you can believe it. Scott Pilgrim EX is very much pandering to my exact demographic, and I'm fully okay with that. It's solid brawler comfort food.

This is a great point. Lots of online leftists either live in red areas now, or grew up in conservative communities. We're not the ones who are unfamiliar with how the other side thinks. That would be rural Rs who are convinced that the moment you step into NYC you get mugged by a trans antifa.

I’ve resolved to play through Yoshi’s Island before the Mario Galaxy movie comes out. It’s always been a bit of a Mario blind spot for me.

Has anyone else theorized that the baby Mario mechanic was inspired by Sonic’s rings

Fair point, I didn’t really mean Trump is cutting together tape for the insta

Not exactly the point here but all the AI-generated Trump pictures look like they’re working from him around 2015/2016, they haven’t really captured that modern day β€œrotting from the inside” Trump look

For years they told us video games would make young people callous and indifferent to real-world violence. Instead we have old people callously sending young people to die and using video games to produce viral content for armchair warriors.

Biden should borrow a page from Trump and go around constantly saying β€œI’ve been completely and totally exonerated” and referring to his β€œperfect signature”

Two weeks? I know he's just trying to post through it but TWO WEEKS? Come on man, at least try to come up with plausible lies.

Very curious to find out how and why Sinestro is terrorizing a small town in Montana or whatever
