I preach violent revolution, but I spend all day liking pictures of corgis and beautiful landscapes, so my Discover feed just doesn't make sense. Official 'Tankie' Bogeyman to the mentally deranged. *LOL* Yes, I know you're here, little boys. ;)

It stops when you give them the war they want. They just want fear and threat. They just want to talk about it, they're bullies at heart and aren't ready to actually die for anything. They never think it's gonna be them, because it won't. But you're just gonna keep watching ABC and Disney anyway.

All the Dems in the US who claim to be doing something need to do something real; dump the Democrats and start up a new American Socialist Party. Because that's what Americans actually need, and it's also what they actually want. #socialism

Thanks USA, for making it necessary to say "I'm not American" to everyone I meet who isn't also white.

Picard Season 3 was great, and underlines something I always need to remember about the 'big franchises'....WATCH IT YOURSELF. Social media has created an utterly unreasonable horde of 'fans' who are incapable of enjoying anything unless given permission by the noisiest idiots. #startrek #picard

Watching Picard Season 3, and I'm loving how the Borg Queen just absolutely dunks on the entire philosophy of the Changelings while talking to Vadic, and being too superior in every way to argue with.

After all the shit Americans talk about Tiananmen Square anytime anyone speaks even vaguely about China for decades now, I expect Trumps parade to be completely blocked and unable to move anywhere because EVERYONE will be standing in front of those tanks. Right?

The problem with, "Oh they just want an excuse to declare martial law, don't give them one!" is....yes. They do. And they are very obviously going to fabricate one regardless of what you actually do, so stop fucking using it as your own excuse for comfortable uselessness.

No more pronouns, I'm sick of pronouns. They should be abolished as the scourge they are. We should use FULL NOUN, I want everyone to use use full names, all the time, every time! Good morning Geoffrey Christopher Smith! Is Emily Jane Smith good as well? Ah! And little Mark George Smith! #pride

Yeah yeah, LLMs are bad and all, but here's the thing....they don't make any fucking money. You reach the source, and it's a money hole. A massive money hole. They're ridiculously inefficient curios. While they're free....use them MORE and you're burning down the provider company. Ads? Leave.

Noem is trying to implement ideas from fucking Running Man into US policy and Americans are still idly sitting. Not a single peep of disturbance. Not so much as a hint of boisterous protest, let alone rioting.

Ok so.....what's actually the point of two handed weapons on Oblivion: Remastered? I can't work it out. They're *ridiculously* slow, don't have any appreciable reach advantage....but the damage is barely a blip above one handed weapons. #Oblivion

The whole tariff bullshit was supposed to move manufacturing back to the US. Apple have accordingly moved their production of US-bound iPhones out of China....and into India and Vietnam. So yeah, that fuckin' worked great didn't it. #tariffs

It is indeed impossible to make a particularly feminine High Elf woman in Oblivion. For anyone who isn't an online chud terrified of their own sexuality though, it turns out you can effortlessly make a gorgeous androgynous twink of a woman who can make this shit look good in anything. #Oblivion

Can everyone please stop using Google? It's not even political...ok yes, it is, but it doesn't even have to be. See, Google is SHIT. Like, at being a search engine. You search anything on it now, you get a fucking AI summary no-one wanted, 'sponsored results', and then Reddit. Even Bing is better.

LITERALLY for 'disloyalty to Trump'. They said it out loud. Honestly, the takeover looks less like fascism at this point, and more like the kind of politburo you get after Communist revolutions with a dictatorial, often insane, 'Dear Leader' figure, with the Republicans becoming The Party.

A notice to all the fucking morons who justify their doing nothing because, "They want to declare Marshall law on us!" (idiot spelling is correct, they don't know the word). They have ALWAYS fabricated excuses. They NEVER needed to be given one.

So the full tally of obviously deserved misery after my Mt Emei pictures: Serious burn. Serious food poisoning. Serious lower back injury. Probably™ pneumonia. Being an actual ball, most of my inside is lung, and technically my entire surface area is my back. So....like....ow.

Just remember, when Republicans talk about a 'sovereign wealth fund', they don't mean an actual sovereign wealth fund. They mean state ownership like here in China. The label doesn't matter, that's what they want to do with it. Having taken the government, they want the government to directly own.

Civ 7 seems to be reviewing very well, so obviously the community is acting like the Eurogamer review with the most hilariously bad takes imaginable in it is the only review that exists. (Yes, I actually read it. The second to last paragraph is a compendium of "why I shouldn't be a reviewer")

All I'm saying is that if they're operatives of no known legal agency, and they're performing illegal actions, you can kinda beat the shit out of them when they trespass and refuse to leave.

Remember what #DragonAge was, how it began. The creatives found that the restrictions of the D&D license and WOTC were too onerous, and decided to make their own setting. Now Dragon Age itself has become the thing it existed to get away from. ....get ready for a fresh new setting and story, I say.
