What You Did Today
Played basketball this morning for the first time in a few years. Felt so good to be back out on the court again but my shot was more like a total stranger rather than an old friend. I swear the stupid basketball ring was also plotting against me Another round of layoffs at work, nobody on my immediate team this time though

US Election 2016
The weird thing I've noticed about the email thing is that everyone I know who worked with me in military, or is still in the military, or gov't contractor all think it's a much bigger deal than those I know who don't work in IT(with clearances), security, and/or g14 classified super secret squirrel stuff. Most of these people are also left of center like myself so while I don't deny there is a lot of opposition frothing at the mouth I also don't think it's a Republican plot to make something out of nothing. I still don't think anything at all will come out of it simply because of who it is... at most some underling may get thrown under the bus

What are you playing right now?
Picked up Stellaris from GMG for 30 bucks thanks to them having a 25% off code (SPACE25). Downloading it now but probably won't get to play it until Wednesday

US Election 2016
Not to gang up on Bruce but I believe we had the same conversation about young people I also don't think the left has a monopoly on it either as you get both sides basically saying some group is too insert adjective here to know what's good for them. I think it's just more noticeable when it's something you don't agree with. Or not, I dunno. I'm nursing a major hangover

US Election 2016
Do you mind sharing why you dont want him to be VP? I am interested in how Sanders supporters will see this? I would lose some respect for him* and as Leferd said he is better off in the Senate since the VP spot is usually to shore up a weakness, reach a demographic, or groom a successor and doesn't have much real power My current pick would probably be Tulsi Gabbard even though Julian Castro is the favorite but like I said I would hope the VP would come from the Sanders camp *probably the same for Elizabeth Warren but not to the same degree

US Election 2016
As a Sanders supporter I would not want him as the VP I'd rather he use whatever pull he has at the convention to push his issues and possibly for a VP more in line with his values

- Project Louisiana? (not Fallout-related)
So is it a WoD RPG set in New Orleans or not? Lack of official confirmation or denial will default to yes. Official responses will still default to yes.- Movies You've Seen Recently Thread

I got the BFA but totally missed the flip flops. Good call My second concern was her position, I can't see her right elbow but at best it's resting in the middle of her thigh and at worst it's floating like her left arm. Sure, there isn't much kick from a 5.56 but it's still pretty unstable and generally lousy form- What are you playing right now?
I'm going to disagree with the others a bit because I only used the SCAR and an actual sniper rifle (forget which one since I haven't played in while) once I got a little better with the mechanics. Just shoot the flamethrower guys in the tank and watch them blow up and take out the guys next to them Still got overwhelmed occasionally but it was pretty rare and only when I was completely surrounded and had nowhere to run but in general I had better luck with a few well placed shots over spraying bullets- Blame Social Justice Warriors for Donald Trump
This seems really unnecessary..sorry guys I just think this type of initiative is more divisive than helpful Shouldn't I be scared of these guys? I would be. But then I tend to look like whatever (light brown) race that people want to project onto me and I've had a run in with some minutemen militia types once upon a time.- Getting it in the hole.

- US Election 2016
To be fair I don't think there are many politician who would put their party or whatever they are representing before their own aspirations. But maybe I have an unreasonably negative opinion of politicians. I have been pretty negative lately Also, I was reading something about Hillary not raising nearly as much money for down ballot races as was claimed. I'll post it if I can find the article again Found it- US Election 2016
Maybe. If I was a Democrat then I'd sure hope so. Personally, I'm not so sure she'd put the party before her last chance to be president. I'm sure if she had no chance then sure but if she had still had a decent chance of winning the general election at a cost to the party... I dunno. I think she might risk it Not that I think anything is going to come of it, mind you. I was just trying to make the point that I don't think there is any way that Hillary could lose by a margin large enough for Sanders to catch up I should have said Mecha Hitler with anime eyes to make my previous example even more ridiculous- RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS
Yeah, I don't really care for the race swapping campaign. I'd rather have separate campaigns for each race- Baldur's Gate: Siege of Dragonspear RELEASED
I think I'm going to try an evil playthrough next I've never done one because the options given always seem so silly like 1. Decline reward (nope) 2. Accept reward (nope) 3. Ask for more (nope) 4. Demand more (maybe) 5. Kill puppy (what?)- US Election 2016
I don't think Hillary would lose that badly even if she was indicted, tried, and convicted before the primary Even if she had a Scooby Doo mask reveal tomorrow and turned out to be Hitler I'm pretty sure she'd still pull at least 40% PS she would have gotten away with it too if it wasn't for those meddling Obama Boys, I mean Bernie Bros- All the Literature and Reading Stuff...
I've had the Malazan and Black Company books recommended to me but I haven't yet had a chance to get to them I really liked the first book of the Raven's Shadow Trilogy, Blood Song, but the next two book were less and less appealing. I also enjoyed The Thousand Names and the Way of Kings but I also thought their second books were less interesting and I'm not exactly very picky either Sorry, I know that's not very helpful- US Election 2016
Now all Sanders has to do is get like 80% of California.... I did not see Cruz dropping out. I guess they've completely given up hope for a contested convention.- SW: The Old Republic - Episode VIII (May RNG Be With You)
The new chapter was better than most and you can actually use stealth this time around. Sure it makes the chapter even shorter but also much less repetitive, if you're stealth class that is. Didn't stick around for the eternal championship, maybe next month - Project Louisiana? (not Fallout-related)
