  1. I'm of the belief that Bernie would have won in 2016 as I don't believe that level of support for Trump existed then as it does now. To your point, I also knew people that hated Trump but voted for him as the lesser of two evils but have since turned into Trump diehards in the following years. Anecdotal but I've heard other people say the same. It's part of the reason I got off social media, got tired of old friends and acquaintances becoming more politically radicalized. Complete disengagement may not have been the best answer for civil discourse but was the best choice for our sanity.
  2. It's kind of hard to say since Bernie was getting so much independent support last cycle. I mean, I don't think she'll get that same level of support and it was only in the primaries but it's just tough for me to hazard a guess at this point. Agreed.
  3. I think you are thinking of Tammy Duckworth, your Senator "I wonder how many of those searches for Tulsi Gabbard were followed by nude" Random comment that made me laugh while researching the debates followed by "I wonder how many of those same nude searches Bernie gets" Though now I'm reminded that there were several articles going into how hot a young Bernie was
  4. Biden is currently the anointed one but if he should tank I wonder who is the next preferred never-Sanders establishment candidate. I missed the debate but it looks like Gabbard got her name out there a bit.
  5. Ass Catchem...
  6. It's not as great storywise but I liked the additions to combat and gearing It also changes decking to real time until combat starts and I've heard of a lot of people hating that change
  7. I feel like I'm forgetting something but here is my ranked list SR:DF/HK Yoga Fire P:K Tyranny WL2 POE1 T:ToN SR:R D:OS1 D:OS2
  8. Yeah, I highly doubt that they'd do anything other than isometric but if they did then that'd kill any interest I currently have.
  9. Sounds like it might summon an elder god
  10. #BlueLivesMatter unless they are coming after us
  11. Today I learned that male bears are called boars and females are called sows. Thank you funny things thread. When I was a young warthog, on a rare trip with my extended family up in the mountains around Pinetop-Lakeside, I once had a crazy bear encounter. I like to tell the story as if the bear chased us and we outran it but the truth is that we heard something that we thought sounded like a bear and then we ran in the opposite direction knowing deep down that we didn't have to outrun the bear and we only had to not be the slow one. I kinda feel bad for my youngest cousin (only by a couple of years) because he was crying as we all passed him but thinking back I remember that they all took off running before and without me so who's the real bad guy. Almost as soon as I reached the head of the pack a gunshot or something like it rang out ahead of us. We stopped and looked at each other, young(er) cousin still way in the back, then all bolted off to the right of the direction we had been running. We really didn't have much choice because it's not like we wanted to go back towards the maybe but probably very likely a bear.Anyways, the right seemed and was the correct direction to go as it wasn't who knows how much later that we'd made our way back "home" to what could generously be described as a cabin. And our bear bait slowpoke cousin arrived a good minute or so later still crying but generally uneaten and gunshot. I think we got into some serious trouble that day, my friends, and I don't think anyone believed our story until the next day when we'd heard that someone had shot at (or possibly just saw) a bear in the woods somewhere around where we were. I'm pretty sure I've shared that one before
  12. I also don't know any vets like that but then again I also don't hang around many vets.. and even less police. Anyways, bourbon over scotch even though I do enjoy that too and I might have to go with the 91 Eagles over the Bears and the Steelers. The others should be pretty obvious
  13. I would definitely not be interested in a Bethesda D&D game but luckily for me I doubt they'd be interested in it either. I'm also not a big Larian fan but at least their games tick a few more boxes for me than the Elder Scrolls with guns and (nu)Fallout with swords walking simulators. The problem I have with D:OS and D:OS2 is that they don't really draw me in and I never have an urge to come back to them. This was especially true with the second game as I didn't enjoy the combat mechanics and the story didn't make me want to know what happens next.
  14. Actually made me miss Sonic with all his clickbaity titles and posts for a brief but unforgivable moment
  15. Republican State Senators from Oregon are still on the run
  16. Seems an odd thing that the government can do and I'm fairly certain it's not a good thing Poor Katphood
  17. I'm sure Trump could make Iran pay for the drone... with tariffs But seriously, retaliatory strikes seem premature. I'm in agreement that they need to build a case and get international support before they start killing people and my snide opening remark aside, I wouldn't doubt that could get more than enough money from them somehow. Seems better than yet another war.
  18. That's an interesting way of naming people. I hope you keep the screenshots coming because I'm very interested in seeing if that naming convention continues.
  19. Horseplayer detective?
  20. Vampiric Illithid exist but they are feral and not all that intelligent. Maybe an Illithid lich would fit the bill better.
  21. Peter Allen Fields
  22. And now for something completely different Supreme Court: Cross Can Stand On Public Land In Separation Of Church And State Case I'm confused on how the cross is now to be considered secular but its removal would be hostile to religion but I guess that's why I'm not on the Supreme Court
  23. Florida city to pay $600K ransom to hacker who seized computer systems weeks ago
  24. Curious about this as I thought 5E was hundreds of years later. How are Minsc and (especially) Boo still alive? I'm not complaining if they show up because Minsc almost always had a spot in my BG2 parties.
