I thought you meant Joe schmo, what does he get out of a fascist dictatorship. Billionaires are all absolutely corrupted by wealth. Smeagols chasing the ring.

Social identity and cognitive biases. They want to be on the winning side, they seek answers which already confirm their preconceived notions. It’s the same with cults and fandom at large.

If I could get just one message to Elon, that I know he would recieve:

No matter how much money you have, no matter how hard you try, no matter how many people you surround yourself with, you are a fucking loser. we all think that. The people that don’t act like it, they think it too, but they want your money. But we all think it you creep.

He was assured “we are currently clean on OPSEC” by chat

It’s the guy running towards the camera at the end, not that it really matters who pulled the trigger in this hit squad.

He has a gun in his hand and immediately bugs out after the shots are fired.

If only there was a system of government where the people could make decisions. Ahh, that would be too cumbersome when the number of people got to big, so maybe there could be a smaller group of people who are chosen to best represent those people’s choices. Ahh, but once again that would leave idiots who could be swayed too easily making choices based on populism. Maybe if we added another smaller group of people to check that group to make sure the peoples will was not misguided.

The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

Without knowing any details on the movie other than “Christopher Nolans next movie is The Odyssey” and that appearing early in the trailer, I thought, Oh ok, cool, kinda doing something visually here, not historically accurate but an artistic adaptation like the 300 or something. Then the rest of the trailer is just, nope, normal Greece. So out of place.

The fraudster Wayne LaPierre --former CEO of the Association who stepped down last year after NY AG brought charges against him for illegally using NRA funds to live a lavish lifestyle (aka, stealing money) – and his allies took control of the Foundation to try and wrestle control back from the new directors.

Laws!

The article about pay walling is pay walled.

brillant. though all of my random playlists are named thusly because I didn’t want to be boxed in with a genre, mood, or theme

would using lockdown mimic the BFU state? or does it not matter once you actually unlock the first time?

No, this dude was not a bully. He’s a sociopath (maybe psychopath) who has had always had the means to overcome his antisocial disorder.

You can see it in his responses, he feigns emotion. He acts in a way that he believes others perceive as confidence or authority but it just “feels” wrong as the other. Dead facial expressions followed by forced pauses for fake introspection which extremely animated facial expressions, then right back to dead face.

I just saw a person in a suit, then read the “mansplaining” comment, then went back and saw the posters name.

It feels so forced or I am just oblivious. I thought the response was an asshole being an “acktuallllllly” response.

I’m old. vCOD, UO, and CoD2 were my shit. Cod4 was the transition, but still good. Blackops lost the theme and killed any competitive scene opportunities for the game, and as you said, it’s been Ctrl+c/Ctrl+v ever since, yet also worse every time.
