Patiently awaiting the heat death of the universe. In the meantime, making robot farts on modular synths when I’m not shit posting about history, architecture, and politics.

California is longer than all of the UK. Hell, you can drive from Cannes to Dunkirk and that’s about the same distance from San Diego to San Francisco.

I wouldn’t call it “a lot”, more like being able to comfortably affording things you want instead of just scraping by for necessities. Honestly that’s always been my goal financially.

Kamala Harris gets boost on potential presidential bid
Polling and a new survey suggest Democrats favor a more centrist approach, boosting Kamala Harris as a possible 2028 contender.

Hell, I make just over 6 figures in OC and was only able to buy a house last year with my wife who also makes 6 figures. And we have no kids. We did renovate the kitchen before we move in and it’s very nice since we both love to cook.

Well yeah. They spent all their time over the last 4-5 years saying that Biden and Dems were too woke and too concerned about people who aren’t CEO’s and now that the market is in free fall all they can do it say maybe they went a bit too far doing that. Fuck em. The media and pundits can all hang.

Not immigration directly no, but don’t forget that Breitbart was very public about amplifying GG as much as possible. Not a big stretch for people into GG to go from that to their section on “immigrant crimes.” Speaking of Breitbart, I always get a kick out of this one.
I’m aware that correlation does not imply causation, but also lol.

Agree with you thats it’s gone on a lot longer (John Burch Society predates Limbaugh), but realistically gamergate gave all the parties that came together to elect Trump something to coalesce around. Think of it as the assassination of Ferdinand that kicked off WW1, only somehow a lot dumber.

As someone who’s dealt with Newsom for years (he’s my governor) I doubt he makes it far in the primary. His only skill has been hiring a good comms team that hits back at Trump and co. constantly. This is easily replicated by other candidates, plus they’ll actually be authentic. He’s not.

Actually it’s about ethics in video game journalism. This isn’t a joke by the way. Gamergate was ground zero for all the shit we’re dealing with now. Rise of Breitbart, the alt-right, Trump, all of it goes back to a bunch of lies someone wrote about their ex because they were dumped.

I hate few things more than dirtbag leftists unfettered worship of FDR (who’s new deal programs were actually quite racist) while they totally ignore that LBJ arguably did more to help every impoverished person regardless of race in the US in 6 years than FDR did in 15.

Also, one of the least talked about aspects of the IRA was the massive investment it made for native tribes to become self sufficient with energy independence. It was one of the first things Trump cut. You don’t get more rural than that.

Real talk. Best sushi I’ve ever had is in a gas station strip mall near the OC airport. A plate there costs like $16 to. Best seafood is a place in Cambria though. Cash only, no reservations, only serves what they got that morning until it’s gone. About $100 a person though. Absolutely worth it.

The real cultural appropriation of food are peasant dishes developed over decades in hundreds of kitchens being turned into high end dining and then almost nothing more gets done to them.

When I was in Bath back in 2015 I had great pizza. It was from a family owned place that immigrated to the UK from Sicily though. What I’m saying is that healthy immigration policies are essential for good food.

Being a goon for ICE also pays well. Both are completely morally repugnant jobs to ever take though.

Yup. Hegseth should absolutely be on the first plane to The Hague the second the next administration is sworn in. Even if this one incident isn’t technically a crime, a whole lot of them were committed in the Caribbean that need to be answered for.
