  1. This new thing called socialism

    Yes, exactly. He was just standing there while others made him look good.
  2. FEMA?

    Pay who, exactly? Because as much as FEMA sucks, paying a hodgepodge of people to do the work that FEMA does now is just FEMA, but worse. If each state has to set up an emergency management agency, that's fifty smaller FEMAs with all the inefficiencies that implies. Pay that money to a...
  3. This new thing called socialism

    Last I heard, the only thing he did before politics that was an actual success was The Apprentice, and that had a television crew making him look good.
  4. Switch 2 official reveal

    Minor thing, but did anyone notice if the Switch2 could use the same dock as the original? It's wider and taller, but I'm not sure if it's thicker.
  5. Nier Automata

    Caldwin, a minor spoiler that might help you decide to go through all the paths...
  6. Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    The percentage of the population that would push that button has always been uncomfortably large. I'm more concerned about the percentage that would push the button if it killed someone that they did know.
  7. Nier Automata

    Wouldn't really call this game Cyberpunk. It's go philosophical leanings and androids, but those are hardly unique to cyberpunk. Huhn. For all that it's an action game, I'd more lump it in with golden age science fiction. Even a magical dragon being blown up over Tokyo in the backstory...
  8. Nier Automata

    The PS5 disc drive died, so I can't just pop it, but I had a lot of fun with it. Automata had enough of an impact that remembered how it played when I started Stellar Blade and... Yeah. They don't play remotely similarly, so that did not help with the opening. I actually played the original...
  9. Escalating anti-LGBT+ hate and the terrorism it inspires

    While people do change, it tends to come from a part of their persona growing or withering. Money and power are infamous for allowing the worst parts of a person to grow. In Rowling's case, people that have gone back through the Potter books have noticed some things that are concerning in...
  10. The Nintendo Thread of Jumping, Slashing, and Home Decorating

    It's not just that Nintendo isn't letting enemies get personalities, it's that the post-Super games seem dead set on having Mario be the only playable character, with the result that Mario and the current mascot are the only ones that stick around for the whole game. The character work for the...
  11. What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    "When I voted for the Leopards Eating Faces party, I never expected leopards to eat my face!"
  12. Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    The movies do acknowledge that the Purge makes no economic sense, yes. It's really just an excuse to kill poor people and minorities. I'll leave it up to you to decide how and if that relates to Trump's proposed policies.
  13. Castlevania

    It was fun. The cartoon had grown to be it's own thing by the fourth season, and Nocturne likewise takes elements from the games without being limited by them. It does remember that the French Revolution is going on around then, so that plays into the themes, but it's not a huge part and...
  14. Hyrule Town Square

    Not a surprise, although it's nice to see it mentioned in something official. Breath wasn't concerned with fitting in the established timelines, and Tears wasn't the slightest bit subtle about the two being their own thing that was only using elements from the rest of the series as desired.
  15. Hyrule Town Square

    Fighting an evil Link... is not a surprise. I'm guessing that the "mysterious sword" is somehow possessed of Link's will, though. Also, Zelda might get the sword by beating up Link.
  16. The Nintendo Thread of Jumping, Slashing, and Home Decorating

    Microsoft put up a trailer for the new Perfect Dark a week or two ago, so whatever happened, it isn't dead now.
  17. Sonic The Hedgehog

    Mind you, American-made series were written with knowledge of those limitations, so they knew how to work around them. This resulted in the somewhat odd situation where it looked like American series were allowed to have violence and dangerous situations, while anime had to be censored to hell...
  18. Sonic The Hedgehog

    Shadow pulled out wings made of bladed tentacles. Yep. His edgelord powers remain strong.
  19. Police behaving badly

    Isn't there some kind of rule about declaring someone dead without a body? To prevent insurance fraud, if nothing else. I know of at least one case where someone was tried and executed for the murder of someone that had just skipped town. You'd think that the police would also know about that.
