Started a new normal game, though I did turn off base power. Never really was a fan of how base-power was handled. Overly cumbersome and the wiring looks horrible compared to the rest of the base building stuff(I know you can build a device to cloak the cables, but I don't really like that)...

Eh, they've been trying to one-up each other for centuries. How is this new? It's a dysfunctional parent-child relationship, always has been, just not as outwardly hostile as it was in the early 19th century..

Well, Nazi Germany was working towards making them as well, and may have beat us to it if it wasn't for the interwar brain transfer from Germany to the US.

That sounds like the most probable result. Still better than the Republicans getting both houses, but just barely.

Here! Here! I'd rather be the crazy uncle of a pet than be the parent of a pet. I'm not responsible enough to do the whole pet-care thing.

See, Putin is ex-KGB. He understands poison, balconies, propaganda and hidden bombs, he doesn't quite get military tactics. It's his kryptonite.

That's what I told him, but NO, resurrecting two of the 20th century's greatest monsters as eldritch zombies was apparently crossing the line....

I'd get them for you but the local voodoo priest isn't taking my calls.( I think he's still upset about that Hitler vs Stalin cage match I tried to get him involved with)

Exactly. No one should be above the law, no matter who their father is. This goes for Trump and his spawn as well. Shame we have two justice systems and which one you go to depends on how wealthy you are and the color of your skin.

Nice to see China's leadership having a broken clock moment. Though even they know once nukes fly, it affects EVERYONE. You can't use nukes and keep a conflict localized.

They CAN be removed from office, but it requires an impeachment trial and given the current makeup of congress.....

Early reports indicate that it's another 'Doom' quality port and that other than the lower resolution and it missing a few bells and whistles graphically, it looks and runs great. Quick-saving anywhere will be a godsend, given how often I get my sessions interrupted these days.

The cult won't leave him. Heck, they will probably still praise him even after he kicks the bucket. We may actually be seeing the birth of a new religion, a very daft and stupid religion, but a religion non-the-less.

The deregulation of the communications industry in the 80's and 90's and the advent of 24/7 news networks lead us to the current state. The fairness doctrine being thrown out the window and large corporate entities being allowed to own not only national broadcast syndicates, but also multiple...

lol. kook, not cook... I'm really slipping with these typos lately.

Not sure. I usually steer clear of directly interacting with various religions, especially ones lead by some charismatic cook. Guess it depends on how you define fringe(some megachurches I'm sure COULD be considered fringe).

I think it's in relation to this image: There's also some messianic language coming from fringe Christian groups relating to Trump as a Christ-like figure, though I personally haven't found anything confirming actual baptisms in Trump's name.(at least not yet)

Yup, though the weed thing probably lead to a spike in popularity starting in the 60s. Gist of it is that a group of people in Jamaica convinced themselves that the new emperor of Ethiopia was the second coming of Jesus or God's newest prophet(I think the actual belief varies from sect to sect)...

It's like the birth of the Rastafari religion all over again but stupider.

To be fair a lot of country songs revolve around adultery and alcohol abuse.
