Why don't YOU go ahead and write me up a 2-page essay on why Trump isn't planning a dictatorship, cite your sources. That's essentially what you're asking me to do and it's guaranteed you'll give a short, flippant remark that doesn't actually address any of the issues brought up, basically wasting my time. It'll be a bunch of whataboutism, gaslighting, misdirection, and BS, that's the standard MO.
I can waste my time going through that exercise, but it's pretty clear to any thinking person that that's what the plan is on the Republican side, just look at the words, rhetoric and actions they've been taking for the past 10+ years. Otherwise, you're maliciously asking me to go through the mental effort of writing up an attack on Trump that you've already decided to ignore and/or counter with some feeble bad faith argument. You're a waste of my time and everybody else's.
Biden is well past his prime, had a shitty performance last night, hate his record on Israel, but I’m still voting for him because he’s not Trump and I’d prefer that our representative democracy continued. Moving to a braindead, functionally illiterate dictatorship just seems like an all-around worse move in every respect. Not sure about his chances, but whatever, there’s not really any other alternative at this point.
If/when they screw up gmail, I’m blacklisting Google for good, that’s gonna be such a goddamn pain to disentangle myself from.
Huh... if they can attach it to the face... could they attach it to... other places?
So useless that they're probably just going to convert over to AI chat apps and you'll just know from the get-go that everybody you talk to is a bot (instead of just 4 out of 5 users being bots). I'm guessing they'll farm that sweet, juicy user-data from however many years now to train their AI on. Base level will be a semi-interested friend, but the higher-subscription level you pay into will unlock romantic options, naughty (ai-generated) pics, and they'll eventually add a feature where you can go on virtual dates with your AI companion and they can scan your pictures/photos and make comments on what you "saw together" on your date. Maybe they'll even insert themselves into the images to make it seem like they were really there. Hell, they'll probably even get to a point where you can have live voice chats with them.
There's so many games that I picked up that I'd played through/completed in my childhood, but they'll likely forever show as unplayed in my Steam library. I've been slowly going back through my Steam library chronologically though, to try to at least reduce my unplayed games amount, and also to at least check out games I might've missed. I'm not forcing my self to actually finish the games, just play them for at least a few minutes, maybe mark it for follow-up later, but the point is to reduce my unplayed games list so I don't feel as bad about it.
Well, at least we’ve got global climate change and multiple other threats to the survival of humanity, we won’t have to worry for long.
This isn't a serious proposal and it's not even really meant for Ukraine to even consider. It's meant for Ukraine's Western allies who will start getting bored and antsy and may start applying pressure on Ukraine to look for a deal. Putin knows he just needs to outlast fickle Western governments, or wait until Russian-backed right-wing governments get into power, then Ukraine will lose its support and likely crumble.
Wakanda Forever. First part where we’re saying goodbye to Chadwick was good in a sad way, but I couldn’t stand anything else that happened after that. I was just so annoyed with every character, I hated every minute of it.
Secret Invasion is by far the worst Marvel production though, just a total shitshow and primarily what caused me to cancel D+, I was just done with the shitty writing.
It just felt like they were trying too hard in every scene. Ragnarok was great, one of the top Marvel movies, but the humor in that was unexpected, it hadn’t really been done like that before with Thor. We were used to this almost Shakespearian Thor, so it was a breath of fresh air. They needed to tone it down some more, maybe actually make it a bit more serious in L&T. They could’ve used it to question religion in general or something even.
Also, Thor getting chained up and stripped down naked was apparently fine for a Disney movie, but when I do it at the theme park I’m a “sex offender” and “exposing myself to minors”, what the fuck Disney?!
