Back in my day we had two Germanies and one Soviet Union, and that's the way we liked it!

Spec Ops: The Line was pretty good but the white phosphorous scene felt a little forced to me. Like, you have to use the war crimes weapon on a group that as a player you're thinking "nah I could probably sneak/shoot through that" and the game doesn't let you make the choice of not massacring civilians. For most of the game when you do something awful, you the player are doing it because you have John SpecOps's warped perspective, but then the game gives a big "do an obvious war crime" button and forces you to push it to proceed.

They gave the concept a good try though.

I love my local PSL comrades!

At least locally, all the ML parties seem to be on real good terms with each other. Whatever national drama and ideological differences there are feel so unrelatable when we're doing the Big Red Tent thing.

Except for that trot who tried to shake me down for 50 cents for a newspaper, what was even up with that, who invited you?

Even if zoos did as much conservation work as they claim to, it won't do much good with all the continued habitat destruction.

You gotta admit that "I'm a vegan except when I eat animal products" is a bit of a head-turner.

He told me to sign up for a thing for student loan relief, but when I did all that happened was that all those loan companies that had completely forgotten about me for years are now hitting me up constantly.

Like thanks Brandon, even your "student loan relief" is fucking me over.

I've been saying for years that anyone should be allowed to make a Spiderman. Let's bring back low budget capeshit that barely resembles the source material. I want a variety of spidered men for all tastes. Most would be absolute garbage but some of that garbage would be awesome and there would still be some interesting shit.

But also, if anyone can make a superhero movie, that could be a step towards taking the capeshit out of capeshit - superhero movies suck because it's the same couple studios just copying each other for over a decade and preventing innovations (good or bad).

Nothing more anarchist than providing equipment and support to a bourgeois state.

Holy shit my bf apparently saw shen yun with a college buddy years ago and somehow blocked out the experience until said friend recently mentioned "that weird chinese dance thing" and I had questions. They won tickets in a work raffle I guess.
