When Trump started repealing the ACA via executive order, you had a non-insignificant amount of people freaking out because they didn't know that was "Obamacare". They of course blamed "the left" for naming it two different things. It's just the voter suppression tactics they've been using for the last few years, require increasing amounts of security in the name of combating fraud while simultaneously closing off avenues to get through said security for the person who doesn't have ample free time and resources.

Cinema and Movie Thread: coming 2 a theater near u
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to PK htiw klaw eriF's topic in Way Off-Topic
Anyone who writes a novel casting their boss as an undead monster has a funny streak. But I do think it's genuinely funny how Eggers broke with the zeitgeist of (modern) vampires to make a historically accurate monster that would be almost unrecognizable as a vampire in contemporary fiction. -

I liked Nosfearatu because giving Dracula a mustache is pretty funny -
You know, I really got nothing. I mean I can see how on a tactical level they'd go for the weak link and all that, but even taking that into account these people are genuinely obsessed with teh transgoinders in a way that makes Captain Ahab look chill. Probably something with (social) media brainrot and covid making them very weird and dumb.

@Sarex So what'd you think about 380?

I think he's very much the ideal pick for the Trump administration: someone who meets a specific aesthetic image Trump wants and is completely in the tank for Trump. That he's more qualified to spend all day tweeting nonsense or cosplaying as a soldier than the job he landed doesn't mean anything so long as he looks good in photo ops and can give a good interview.

ngl, this is not what I was expecting when I opened this thread. -
The PoE games are weird for me in that on paper I should love them but something I can't describe turns me off. Still, I fully support Microsoft giving Josh Sawyer a massive budget to make PoE3 on the scale of BG3 with free reign to make the most unhinged game he could dream of.

At least it'll only be 2 weeks instead of 2 years.

I'll tell ya right now, REAL MEN want in-game ads for BRAIN FORCE ULTRA and ALPHA POWER. WHICH YOU CAN BUY FROM MY STORE AT INFOWARSDOTCOMSLASHPRODUCTSSLASHSUPPLEMENTS. IF YOU ACT NOW YOU CAN GET A 2 MONTH SUPPLY FOR FIFTY PERCENT OFF, BUT THERE'S MORE. USE MY CODE GOWOKEGOBROKE AND YOU'LL GET FREE SHIPPING AND THE RFKJR SPECIAL EDITION VACCINE BUSTER SUPPOSITORY AND GIGAJACKED INJECTABLES FOR FREE - A $420 DOLLAR VALUE ABSOLUTELY FREE. ACT NOW. Real talk: Look, BG3 is by the same metric a "woke" game, as is stuff like Disco Elysium and other things that seem to do very well for their weight class. You're not seeing 10000 videos of interchangeable guys with the charisma of a snail and the brains of a pile of **** complaining about those games for being too woke. The newest Dragon Age underperformed for a variety of more recognizable reasons: it's an IP whose last release was a decade ago so the base has deteriorated, it tried to ape popular trends and didn't do a great job of capturing those audiences, it went hard on cinematics despite not being a pretty game, it had a very bad prologue that turned players off, etc. That kind of stuff just doesn't really play well to the clickbait addled dip****s as yelling about whatever acronym they're mad about this week, because those people will eat steaming diarrhea from a toilet and call it gourmet. All of this puts me in an awkward situation because I would very much like to hate on DAVe but also don't want to roll in that mud. I was hating on this **** before launch and these vermin scurry in to start as soon as they see sales figures aren't great. -
The Last Word - very good, but not enough to get scalped for. Luckily I've been able to get both green and yellow for a relatively reasonable price at liquor stores.

Cinema and Movie Thread: coming 2 a theater near u

Iirc, Ken Russell is a director that somehow consistently hits for both of us, which is a rarity. The anti-Villeneuve. It did stream on Criterion (which far and above is the most valuable streaming), but it's currently not on and who the hell knows when or if it will be brought back. I watched it a while ago but haven't seen it in a minute. Guess it's time to go looking. But before that...... I was going to post a pic of ole Denis but by god his face is so naturally smug that it inflicted psychic damage on me. Something tells me experimental early Soviet cinema is not quite what he has in mind by "pure image and sound". -
