The Gaming Den

The movie "Alienoid" has kung fu wizards in it. It is to dumb fun kitchen sink action adventure movies what Marvel movies wish they were. And while it may be stupid it doesn't think its audience is all that stupid. Without spoilers I refer to the suit, the hand gun and the mute house maid...

But Amazon just tried to sell me a way to eat dicks which I hadn't seen previously:

re: 2022

From my view in Western PA, it looks like Fetterman picks up a PA Senate Seat for the Dems, but lose the Governership due to Wolf being term-limited.

So, midterms are gunna be, like, Dems again. By the look of it. It's gonna come down to three things, in order of importance: 1. The extent of voter suppression enacted and implemented at the State level. 2. When the stock market correction happens. If it occurs within 90 days of the election, the ...

Okay, Den. This local homemade soap shop has your needs covered: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGa6jV1s1Qk

Even better, they currently have a capital-raising campaign going on through a crowdfinancing site. This is your chance to be a bag of dicks profiteer. (Or to lose money trying to be such)

One hundred percent (you have to scroll down past Dark Lord to reach it). With the added benefit that I am unlikely to stop partway through so long as I continue making like $2,000/month off of them. I'm gonna need to bring this thread to a screeching halt for a moment while I consider my life deci...

Can someone explain to me the legal contortions necessary for Biden to believe that $10k of Student Loan Forgiveness is possible via executive action, but $50k is not? I will admit myl ignorance of the relevant statutes, but it would intuitively seem that forgiveness can either be accomplished via e...

who got very vocal about his anti sjw stance

In online interactions, non-ironic use of the term "SJW" is a red flag that can trigger my "fuck this fascist, I'm outta here" reflex.

So, South Carolina has now opted to use a firing squad for their death sentences as the fourth state?
Are bullets that much cheaper than poison or electricity or a good old noose of hemp rope? More reliable?

Bullet manufacturers have a pretty gung-ho lobbying group supporting them in the US.

Haha, 30. April 2021. Seemed so far in the future. I remember reading a Shadowrun novel as a kid where the protagonist turned into a troll.

Oh well, at least the new Raspberry 400's look like 80ies cyberdecks, even if only in pink.

Ok, so was reading LotR again, and towards the beginning Gandalf mentions (in passing) that Sauron has werewolves working for him. Apparently LotR werewolves are evil, which seemed odd in that Beorn (and his kin) is basically a werebear and a good person. And it struck me that in AD&D (at least...

Hey Kaelik,

You wanna weigh on on the legal angle of what looks to my layman's eyes like a State Senate Coup that just happened here in PA ?

No comment on her politics, but Avril Haines's biography reads like a pulp adventure recap or a really convoluted PC backstory (competitive judo, theoretical physics, erotica readings, landing an airplane aft...

Yeah, Trump is clutching at the thinnest of legal straws here. But it is downright terrifying what a more competant wannabe dictator could have accomplished had he installed and/or bribed enough key election board officials well in advance of the election instead of attempting it as a slapdash after...

Now, what stopped that happening for you? The Democrats. Sure, there are probably some issues to do with the structure and relationships of state governments in the US being a bit different. But in the end the Democrats, certainly the current leadership, are shit at being an effective opposition pa...

Don't get me going about the federal economic response. They were forced into that by the states and the opposition too, but decided to do that through businesses just to be jerks about it, and holy shit that was a train wreck that I, as a business (no literally I'm a business, I don't know if you ...

If you think Australia is the place for political refugees to flee to you haven't been keeping track of who was pioneering the whole kids in cages thing. Uh-huh.

PhoneLobster: The "good" outcome hasn't been on the table since (at least) Super Tuesday. To avoid stall an irreversible slide further into neofascism, those of us stuck in the US of A have had to sell the still-crappy neoliberal outcome we didn't really believe in pretty hard to our frien...

I doubt there will be any serious prosecutions to pardon. I also suspect there is likely to be a blanket pardon before Biden can take office. ***** But if I had my way, I would actually encourage the adults in government to forgo any prosecution of Donald Trump Senior, but to instead open Ken Starr ...
