I don’t know, did you see the same debate i saw? But it’s ok, it will be fine. Kamala Harris will just take over when the time comes.

Didn’t the Democratic Party crush any hope of RCV even when it passes on the ballot? I mean i expect that from republicans, but it seems it is a rare bipartisan effort to prevent it from ever happening.

Well…

MWO (Mechwarrior Online) is still adept at bilking me for more money with the false promises of buying power… though Catapult with MASK go brrrr 153kph.

One of my friends beged me off and on for the last year to give fallout 76 another try. Now he stopped playing after the first day but i am giving it a go. Feels a lot less dead.

And my other friend is playing Wayfinder. A used to be MMO turned action diablo like. It got literally every type of character progression you can imagine, someone probably should have tackled the designer once they started to add the POE/FF10 skill web. Its fun, playing it on the hardest mode and bosses take a solid hour of devil may cry’ing

My other friends are trying to get me into FF14 again. But man did i lose a lot of will to play that at the ‘the developer watched Evangelion, and you have to learn all about it’ section. So that might simmer a bit longer.

And i want to play Monster Sanctuary. The best pokemon game ever created.

I mean it makes perfect sense if the hypocrisy is self serving in all parts. Usually being a hypocrite is a shameful state of being, that’s why they have to insulate themselves with those like them.

I agree that Isreal getting attacked was needed to begin the land grab and to maintain power of the political party, and to attempt to justify murder. I also agree that one reason the US is allied to Isreal its for a for hold in the region for us to project power. But that is about it. I don’t hold that America needs this partnership, to such a degree to overlook genocide.

I did not know it was so many, but i know they were specifically targeted.

I guess i should answer your real question, what would it take before the US should go to war with Israel? I am hesitant, they are possibly a nuclear armed power, and a war would cost even more innocent lives. But if i had to choose i would have already effectively done so.

That sounds like an abusive relationship to me, regarding Israel. But if we could not stop Israel from committing genocide no matter what, then i would have us not enable it. If they have the resources available to commit genocide without our help, then they don’t need our help covering their defense, economy, nor political sway either.

Would actively sending our money and troops to Palestine to attack Israel be the correct play? It’s not so cut and dry as the Ukraine/ Russia war. But that money could go tword humanitarian efforts in Palestine, i am not so much concerned about the Palestinian government as i am the Palestinian people.

I don’t see our current trajectory as being successful, so this seems the only winning play. Not changing things risks everything for no good reason

I mean yea, but that’s not really fair to him. Being president seems like a terrible burden.

It seemed a lot worse than being a little hoarse. He was conflating issues, mid sentence. And getting confused regularly in addition to seeming really feeble and not being able to answer what is asked of him. Listen if this was the first i was seeing this from the president, then i might buy this is just him mid fever. But it’s not and is expected from a man at his age. Still voting for him, but i am thinking Kamala Harris is going to have to take over the presidency before long.

Possibly, at that point it would be based on trust that the administration would not continue genocide actions. If Israel changed the ruling party and immediately stopped their genocide then that would be the fastest means to return. I have issues with the land grab into Palestine for the same reason i side with Ukraine. But genocide gives me more than just issues.

I knew this would come up, which is why i specified this. Might as well as cut the head off the “every country has committed genocide at some point” argument. Not every country is actively committing genocide, Israel is. America is their chef supplier of power. America is actively Shielding them from the consequences of committing genocide.

So we should stop backing a country that is actively committing genocide full stop. No money, no weapons, no blocking sanctions, no threatening countries and organizations trying to help the victims. This is the literal bare minimum, as we should be sanctioning them, we should be guaranteeing humanitarian aid to Palestinians.

When is it not an active genocide? When the genocide stops.

Over an active genocide? I would immediately end a friendship with a country and as many times as it takes to not be responsible for enabling a genocide. Allies don’t let allies commit genocide, everyone knows that. Besides it takes more than a president to do a genocide.

What about the person with an auto clicker that just flails his mouse all over leaving chaos and a dead zone in which no one is happy?

He seemed to really like knitting though.

It’s more of recognition that the internet is not the Wild West it used to be. Your anonymity is dependent on how much you are worth to track, and that value shrinks every day. If you want to buy cheaper video games, or watch geo locked Netflix content you are fine… for now. But the US government has been offering VPNs for people wanting to be anonymous for a wile now. So its not extreme for china to do it too.

Sounds a lot like sunken cost fallacy. We might be better off making other allies.

Probably, but any thought that VPNs keep you anonymous to anyone other then script kiddies and minor companies is fool hardy

The unreleased one has an unironic charm in it. I’m not sure it would have been viable in theaters but i liked it. But all the movies that made it to theaters were just very blah

Bravo
