Could get better if Trump has to run from prison and then hand over the Presidency to his VP after winning.

I’m very excited to live through “The Year of Four Presidents”

No no no. This Is Whataboutism.

You’re only allowed to comment on Russian wartime media practices in exclusion. You can’t view it through a holistic lense of state sponsored manufacturing of consent.

I reject uniform distribution theory and only recognize the graph that looks like a pair of torpedo titties.

“Getting a little handsy” in the Vulcan vernacular has a whole new spin.

Kuikanmäki told Yle that it is still unclear to him why this connection to China has prevented him from taking up the role as Minister Purra’s advisor.

Can’t believe the Finnish security leopards would eat my face.

joker-che If you’re good at something, never do it for free.

zifnab25,
  • Free healthcare
  • Free public housing
  • No debt
  • Spend all your days cruising the galaxy with your buds, looking for more people who want to join the party

Yeah, I’m not clear what’s on this list that I’m not supposed to like.

Imagine having the whole world to survive the apocalypse and choosing Vegas

zifnab25,

This is true except for the part where anyone smiles naively, as though the dog whistle isn’t delivered in the most transparent manner imaginable

zifnab25,

Its an optional illusion. Nothing exists and we are but the stuff of dreams.

The apotheosis of what a dumb guy thinks a smart guy sounds like.

The manifested avatar of a crowd of drunk college kids having an uninformed debate.

The patron saint of mansplaining.

Joe’s fundamental problem isn’t that he’s biased or somehow hostile to leftist critique. Its that he’s a shameless sellout far more focused on promoting his sponsors than providing useful information to his audience. Fundamentally, you have to see the Joe Rogan Show as a two hour long advertisement.

Just like any of those dippy morning shows that feature two drunk New York socialites giggling about the day’s news, the primary purpose of the programming is to sell self-help books, nutrition supplements, entertainment, and sleazy investment products. These “open” interactions are ultimately just sponsored content. His guests are overwhelmingly just sales guys making a pitch for their snake oil. And his blank gormless reception of every bow tie nerd and hack fitness guru is the canvas against which these hucksters pitch their product.

That’s kind of what free speech is about right there.

Its not “free speech” because these people are paying to be here. Rogan isn’t talking to these dipshits pro bono. He’s taking his cut of all their merch. That’s the whole reason he’s worth nine-figures.

Dude’s running the toxically masculine version of the Home Shopping Channel.

I had a game in Middle School that involved describing how I was supposed to arrange a ladder to climb up the side of a wall. We went back and forth for over an hour, because my DM kept insisting I couldn’t turn the ladder sideways.

Now, if my players want to deliver a particularly clever bit of prose or describe a novel engineering technique, I just give them a +2 on the roll and that’s that.

Fu Linghui, a spokesman for the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), said the release of data would be suspended while authorities look to “optimise” collection methods.

“In recent years, the number of university students has continued to expand,” Fu said. “The main responsibility of current students is studying. Society has different views on whether students looking for jobs before graduation should be included in labour force surveys and statistics.”

This issue, as well as the definition of the age range currently set at 16-24, “needs further research,” Fu said.

Isn’t this basically consistent with the… I want to say U6 unemployment metric within the US? Basically, if you’re in school then you aren’t an active member of the labor force and don’t count as “unemployed” for the purpose of government statistics?

I remember back during the '07/'08 US downturn, lots of young people re-entered academia in pursuit of MBAs / Law Degrees / etc, because the job market sucked and pay in professional fields was worth the time/cost of a higher caliber of degree. When they fell out of the labor market as a result, the US unemployment rate adjusted in response.

Valiantly defending the Titan of Industry from in between its toes, while the behemoth clutches at its heart and collapses due to a congenital heart defect.

A game that has barely changed in over 30 years, except to expand the color palette occasionally? What can they possibly be quality controlling? Its not even like you have to spell check stuff when half your proper nouns are gobbley-removed.

I guess it would have been nice if PokemonGO had released in anything resembling a playable state. But people still threw endless amounts of cash at it. So how important can quality control even be?

zifnab25,

Natalie should know better. But also… the really nasty shit under Obama was heavily under-reported and only ever seemed to penetrate media in a select few circuits. Casually tossing off a “What even did Obama do that was so bad?” is almost forgivable if you’re not a terminally online 30-year-old who makes hour long YouTube videos about politics, history, and culture.

zifnab25,

Since she basically stopped making content, I’m a little surprised she still has an audience. Like so many otherwise curiously influential and interesting people, she’s doomed herself to drowning in the social media space when everyone would be better off (her most of all) if she just logged the fuck off.

zifnab25,

Libs on /r/politics only make jokes about the Ork-shaped Slavic Brainpan and how many indictments Trump is currently under.

zifnab25,

I think she’s joking about how people over-report his trivial shit. But it can be read as blithely ignoring the monstrous crimes Obama did commit while in office, because it echoes a lot of the liberal apologia of the administration that amounted to “The worst thing Obama ever did was wear a tan suit”.

zifnab25,

Wonder if we’re going to get a Blowback on the Congolese Wars.

Come to think of it, I wonder of a War Nerd or Lions Led by Donkeys already exists for it.

zifnab25,

Based and hair piled. Nobody else has that cut.

zifnab25,

If she wasn’t on Discovery, she might have scored more points.

zifnab25,

All these conservatives from back in the 90s telling people “Learn to code!” with no idea of the tidal wave they were about to unleash.

zifnab25,

Imagine not cracking a beer while playing Vidya Games.
