you wouldn’t treat a broken ankle with strong painkillers and continue walking as if nothing was wrong just because it doesn’t hurt anymore - would you?
Of course not! We limp around trying to keep it from hurting, praying to any deity that will listen and some that won't that it heals before you have to pay for a visit to urgent care.
The pills are just to help us go to work while we mentally figure out how many meals we will be skipping to pay for it.
Now ask me if I'm joking.
I wonder if this is also one of those genetic things like cilantro, because ibuprofen tastes nasty as fuck to me. Like "bitter and my tongue wants to cut itself off to stop the taste even after a drink" nasty.
You mean the thing that we keep getting reminded every single year is a scam, was always a scam, and never had any intentions other than to delay anyone pushing actual regulations with a pinky promise to do better "eventually".....
That maybe the companies are.... Lying to us?
Do you really think a company, the pinnacle of honest capitalism, would ever lie for short term profits?
Perish the thought!
Daily reminder that the moral high ground is littered with corpses.
TOS was peak fighting style for action, you can't change my mind.
Look at the absolutely flawless way he disarmed kirk.
Perfection.
The OG most wanted is hands down my favorite of all time.
I dropped $40 just to play on my Xbox around 10 years ago.

I'm not saying laws are inherently just and good, this just isn't a good look.
On par, though.
Honestly, if you mounted some of these on a couple 1kw e-bikes with fat tires and suspension for better off-roading, you could get some nice hit-and-run squads, assuming you could clear or detect area-denial weapons.
Mount an MG on one, a recoil less rifle on another, maybe some form of rocket launcher for heavier armor.
It's not going to take over any countries, but a fast attack force that can clear rough terrain quickly is worth it's weight in gold.
5 bicycle boys vs 10000000 Gen 5 tanks and 27 lions, who wins?
You joke, buuuuuuut https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2013/12/launch-code-for-us-nukes-was-00000000-for-20-years/
The USAF has denied this, multiple times.
I do not believe them.
Mainly because I know how people were during the cold war and have no doubt in my mind that the thought process was "nobody will ever access this without a reason, so let's make it super quick and easy or we might be radioactive slag before we finish typing"
The mere fact that it's believable is a problem.
Who could have done this? What entity or entities could have possibly benefitted from trying to get democratic polling places closed? WHO?
We may never know. Case closed.
If my eyes rolled any harder, they'd pop out the side of my head.
Something tells me that unlike every other role where he makes people jump through hoops every game regardless of how many decades they've voiced the same character, he did not make Hideo Kojima audition for the voice.
I'm not bitter or anything, why do you ask?
His words are worth their weight in gold!
