Nothing to do with cynicism, maybe overthinking a joke. Does seem like an old joke, I can swear I've heard something about this before. But I suppose if he manages to troll even a handful of people a year it's worth the effort of painting it and maintaining it to him. At least in the months without snow - unless he has some sort of heating system but I can't imagine that'd work well (he'd get nasty ice damming, no?).

Hm, these days I doubt that's effective at all what with smartphones in abundance. Also wonder how many people near the window actually look out it at the ground.

Yep, I got an Awakened one right on my border, decided to be their vassal and now it's pretty boring. I should probably stop playing with 2x habitability and 11 empires. But at least my borders look pretty.

Does that include anyone commenting about disparity in incomes being an issue ? Heh, these days Câmara's famous quote still seems apt

That's the Independent's headline, though, Oxfam uses 'bagged' and 'went to' which shouldn't be anything for you to get upset over - https://www.oxfam.org/en/pressroom/pressreleases/2018-01-22/richest-1-percent-bagged-82-percent-wealth-created-last-year

Weird dream, but at least it woke me up early. I guess somehow watching an Imagine Dragons music video put the idea of a dogfighting ring in my head and I came up with some dream about killing pretty much everyone involved. The bit about executing the last guy as he'd pleading for his life probably is what woke me up, heh. My immediate coworkers have gone full cliche as we've all independently begun listening to gangster rap at work.

Well he seems to be going on as if it is fairly widespread. Can't imagine one wouldn't get sacked for calling a coworker a honky or cracker or some other racist term for white people.

Are you really sure about that or is this some FOAF-esque tier of sourcing ?

Not quite sure who this person is or why it matters. But I guess the internet is nothing more than "I found someone that said something ridiculous" and that reaching everyone, as opposed to dying on the street corner like it did 30 years ago

He's a bull**** artist, he says lots of things.

She was worried about the cops killing him, if I recall. Bit paranoid but with the crap the Baltimore cops pulled last year, who knows

Maybe. https://www.technologyreview.com/s/610008/a-cheap-and-easy-blood-test-could-catch-cancer-early/

Could use a better name. So I guess the next Baywatch reboot will be about drone pilots...makes sense, more chance for drama as they sit in control rooms.

Condolences anyway LC

I guess I have a different idea of what a booming economy is supposed to be. G&S raking in more doesn't really help everyone after all. The economy in the US improved last year, but it has been doing that for a while (granted I suppose it'd have to after 08-09, heh). Hm I guess you can attribute people's attitude to him in some way. Saw a report interviewing Trump supporters in some ****hole Midwest town, they said it was a great economy and when the reporter said the boom didn't seem local they responded with faith that it'd get better. But we all know what hope is

Stellaris. Got screwed on my start, as I had little colonizeable planets near me but my neighbour sure does. I did manage to research enough to adjust my population's preferences but then that sparked a declaration by the superpower alliance, so I guess that game is done.

Not sure the economy is booming in the US, or even if what it is now is due to Trump. Is quite a lag between any politician doing anything and the economy changing, usually.

Well, that depends on the porn star. Stormy Daniels Man, not even a good pick. Damn meshback.

It is annoying when some DDoS attack prevents you from playing SP, is more common for me than local connectivity issues, having some problem with the service itself.

Well, that depends on the porn star.
