But you repeat yourself

The only place the OK City bombing was considered a war was inside Timothy McVeigh’s diseased mind, so I would contest that his rental van was not a technical, but mostly on a technicality.

Now the question is: is this a technical?

You aren’t missing much.

This looks AI generated, why didn’t he just get the clothes and take a damn picture? That way it wouldn’t look like shit

Maybe they don’t want those divots in the side of their nose? But it might be more in line with being nervous about Lasik or something, which I get because I haven’t gotten it because 1) I don’t have the money and 2) my understanding is that they cut into your eye so a flap of it is just there. If someone were to punch me in the face after, it might be easier to pop my eye! I haven’t looked much deeper into it, but that’s my, maybe irrational, fear. Apparently the better surgery to get is one where they grind down your eyes to have better lenses, but that seems like a huge thing also, probably more expensive, and it would take a long time healing from it while essentially being blind.

The thing about fascists is that they do sometimes point out real problems, but their explanations on the causes and their solutions for those incorrect causes are wildly unreasonable. For example, Nigel here probably believes that “corporatism” is caused by the companies exploiting (white, British) people being owned by non British and non white people, and his solution is to ban those people from owning anything and indeed deport non white people and immigrants instead of regulating the actions of businesses in any way. So even if he’s correct that it’s a problem that people are suffering and the government is corrupt, he and Breitbart can’t be worked with because their solutions are bullshit and sharing glowing articles about them promotes their explanations and solutions.

Her Color 2 for that outfit is trans flag colors. Idk if it was confirmed that she’s trans, but if she is, she’s not the first trans character in Street Fighter.

And also Ubisoft isn’t American, they’re a French company. So instead of Guile we should have Manon.

That’s fine. But also the guy could be handcuffed to a secret service agent or something. It’s not like there aren’t a bunch of buff dudes around the president at all times. The purpose of the exercise would probably be enhanced if the guy didn’t want to die.

And she got an Oscar for it while he did not.

I believe they are canonically ten years old, yes. We were in college when he said that. I don’t know how deep this goes, I stopped talking to him soon after.

One of the weirdest people I ever knew said that exact thing about why he played a girl in Pokémon games. That dude was incredibly sus.

You should look up his cult! I’m being serious, the guy has a cult. Here are the first two articles I found about it. Add that to the fact that he’s the worst part of basically every movie he’s in and he did shit like mail used condoms to his costars on Suicide Squad in the name of “method acting” and I feel like the general disgust with him being the main character in any movie, particularly one someone would otherwise be interested in is warranted.

Those are good things to want. Since we’re talking about elections, it’s worth mentioning that of the grand total of two options, only democrats have even a slight possibility for them to happen, wheras the Republicans are saying that Gaza should be nuked, which is worse than what’s happening right now, I’m sure you’ll agree. Which is to say nothing of literally every single other issue where the Rs are universally much worse.

Feel free to appear uncommitted right up until the general, at which point you and everyone else trying to extract concessions needs to show up. And as long as that happens, I’m sorry for implying you’re not an adult.

It’s plain to anyone who is willing to see that this administration has been influenced in a positive direction vis a vis Israel, and they are doing much more to help the Palestinian people than the “turn Gaza into a radioactive parking lot” crew that is the other option will do should they regain power. And yes, I have called the offices of my elected representatives, which didn’t go very far because they’re Republicans.

I do not share your compunction about telling people that a vote for better is better, even if better is not ideal, because I’m an adult who has been paying attention to how it has been and is promised to be worse. There is no viable third party, and mathematically there will not be until every state changes away from First Past the Post, which will not happen before the election. Therefore, the better of the two parties, obviously the Democrats, should be voted for. Full stop. Up and down the ballot. Anyone who decides to not vote this way is indicating that they are fine with the Republicans regaining power, and aren’t allowed to complain about the leapords eating their face should they win. The only instance in which voting third party is acceptable is for smaller local elections, and even then that’s if they did a good job canvassing. You should help them canvass, if there are any nearby.

And the reality is that as far as the presidency is concerned on that specific topic we have a choice between someone who has been maintaining the existing status quo vis a vis Israel and Palestine but has been successfully pressured into at least looking like he’s trying to stop it by his base and the guy who, last time he was in office, made it worse by moving the Israeli embassy to Jerusalem and several other actions, plus everything else wrong with his policies. As far as the presidency goes, those are the only two options, so while we could maybe have done better before, we don’t have a different option now.

So, between “bad but can be influenced to be better” and “far, far, demonstrably worse and only descending,” the only two actual options, which should people vote for?

No, see, the spoiler effect, a well-documented phenomenon, isn’t real and is just a lie to keep people from voting for third parties, who are super for real going to affect anything positively this time! It’s your fault for not abandoning the only party with a chance to win against the fascist party in favor of checks notes Cornel West, a candidate so unserious he declared his party affiliation with the People’s Party (a bunch of definitely not grifters featuring such intellectual titans as Jimmy Dore and Jesse “the Body/Mind” Ventura) only to immediately switch to the Green Party, only to immediately switch to Independent. Math isn’t real and I’m very smart.

No, see, passively continuing policy while trying to rachet it back when you realize how unpopular something is with your base is exactly the same as active hostility and escalation, fully justifying my refusal to participate in the system. I’m very smart.

And that group is also an incredibly small outlier, and wouldn’t be considered in their calculations.
