  1. He is one of the biggest influences of mine, I'm very glad he got to live a long life. Rest in peace
  2. Still bitter that Fenstermaker’s pitch won, eh? Kinda sad Wait... what's the issue here? Have I missed something? Each writer had to pitch their narrative to the owners. Winner got to be narrative lead for Pillars 1. Eric won, Chris lost. Sad that the great MCA lost? Personally I really loved Eric's writing. Some of the most refreshing stuff I've seen in the industry. I'm glad the lead narrative. I don't think it's a knock against MCA that someone else is also talented. It was my impression that Josh and Carrie were sort of splitting the narrative writing, with Carrie being the lead as Josh also has a character and then the mechanics and project lead. Of course Eric is back writing Eder. Carrie is probably sticking to Aloth and Josh Pallegina. I'm curious who is writing which new companion. Do we know yet?
  3. It's more like 6 weeks. I think launch impressions are very important, and I personally want a Pillars 3.

  5. Unlike Algoth who only put some denial video I put out videos that I believe in. You have already proven to me you don't share same views as me that is crystal clear. No why would I put huge effort in writing hundreds of words? I don't see it worth doing. I rather find what I believe in. There are lot of creative youtube creators out there. I never said that I am creative but it is easy to post a link. What so I should put some huge effort to make you happy when end result is that you don't believe in same things as I do unless you might really watch something and perhaps learn:). No not writing essays. I am not paranoid if I would be really scared I would have no investment debt but I do have investement debt. Even if a banking cartell exist I don't think they are all powerful and globalists have had some setbacks. Just posting that video out of the blue with nothing to suggest why or what I should be gleaning from it is not all that helpful. Otherwise it just seems like a low-effort way to "throw a book" in someone's face. We don't have to debate our differences now or ever, but I'm not inclined to put up with what I consider to be low-quality discourse. I know English isn't your first language, but "Jada jada I dont respect your political views so how about that." does not instill me with much confidence that discourse will be anything but low-quality. Nor do posts where I have to guess your mind and intentions. I get it, you're trying to stake out your views for everyone, just don't be surprised that on a discussion forum people expect actual effort by you to defend them.
  6. Are you just ****ting out media content that validates you're views, or are you going to put a little more effort in of your own? There are issues with banking, and you'll never come to truly understand what the problems are if you follow **** like that. It's a much longer, slower, and tedious road to get a handle on it all. A lot of the issues aren't even conspiracy level but relate ignorance and unmanageable complexity.
  7. My grandpa thought Alex Jones might have something worth while to say just because Megan Kelly setup an entirely unfair interview format against him, so it's not like people don't get dupped into his shtick. I actually really like Jordan B Peterson. I started following his academic stuff even before the whole Bill C-16 which smuggled in compelled speech laws. I'm actually a fan of Sam Harris as well, and I know those two and their respective communities don't seem to get along all that well. I think he's buckling a bit under the immense media pressure, doesn't always express himself the best than he can, and a huge swath of the left can't help but misinterpret him. I think he's trying to formulate his insights in a way that lay people can digest it, and it's far from as good as his academic lectures. If you dig back and look at a lot of his material you start to see a really profound picture unfolding. It actually takes some effort though to understand it all, and it's very routed in academic neuropsychology. I do agree with Harris that a lot of what Peterson talks about could be reformatted in a secularly humanistic manner, but I do think Peterson is very right about a lot of what he speaks about. I don't think Harris appreciates the fact that certain morals are hard to formalize unless experienced in a highly figurative sense. Peterson is far more the pragmatist. I'd be happy to go on but maybe in another thread.
  8. You said you weren't familiar with these sources, you should know just how low quality they are. Unless all you're interested in are other nationalist movements.
  9. There are political thinkers that tackle issues from the centrist/conservative position, who may or may not be liberal on certain matters. Then there are reactionary people who drum up hysteria and play to the same mentalities that antifa, sjws, and other radical leftists do. Alex Jones has zero journalistic integrity and should be disregarded whole-sale. He's a conspiracy theorist who got his start by leveraging conspiracies that turned out true, and has become a hound dog with a nose trained to follow anything that might pair well with his deep-state narratives. I thought he was probably half parody for the longest time, but I think he used to maintain plausible deniability. He's completely lost it. Anything worth while that he speaks of he's likely to taint, not worth trying to sift the wheat from the chaff there. Black Pigeon is a trash-tier alt-right mouthpiece porked up with plenty of unsavory sexist, racist, and bigoted opinions. Terrible source if you're interested in opinions that counter the current movements on the left. Tommy Robinson is a nationalist, and that means he flies close with ethno-nationalists. He certainly doesn't work all that hard to keep his network clean. Probably the least worst out of the lot, but not exactly someone who I'd follow for his intellectually take on things. He probably speaks on some lived truths that a lot of white working class people in the UK experience, but I'd be very hesitant to follow him whole-sale. He too relies far to much on appeals to emotion, and suffers from tunnel vision when discussing issues.
  10. I'm for existential private health care, I also think it's important to have state coverage. The state should be able to participate in the market economy as well, the idea that it shouldn't is absurd and anti-capitalist. Ironic how many pro-market people are actually just pro-protectionism.
  11. I was pleased to see that too, too much of a fan favorite. I wonder how they'll explain his reintroduction to the wizarding world. Also, the HP universe is lucky they didn't cast Jude Law earlier as some other character, perfect cast for the young Ddore.
  12. I wonder if the next 8 weeks are going to all be intense crunch time, or if it will be more business as usual.
  13. This is about when I had originally expected it. Also fantastic because I will be graduated by then!!! Hurray!
  14. Keeping to animation. Bojack, Bob's Burger's, and Futurama make up my favorites.
  15. This gave me a laugh. Still laughing. Ugly as hell. Hey it is personal taste if you like them get that kind of wife. If attractiveness is subjective, then why are you throwing around an objective qualifier like ugly. I see no reason to comment on someone's looks like that in general. As for a movie where a character doesn't suite your tastes, I'm surprised your knocking the film for something so petty. Surely your familiar with other standards of beauty. I'd be embarrassed to rate a movie up simply on the good looks of an actress, I consider this the same as bemoaning character's not giving you your desired rise.
  16. Whatever they up to, it can be anything, I hope it doesn't involve gamebryo. They just don't write games that are sufficiently distinct or innovative with that stack of technology.
  17. Just got back from Annihilation. I really really enjoyed it. It was different than I was expecting, but not significantly so. Definitely one of my favorite films of the last few years, it very much fits my taste in movies though. I don't want to spoil anything, and I don't want to hype it. It's a really good movie and I think it appeals to people of a certain taste. Just go into and let it speak for itself. I will say how it differed from my expectation of it.
  18. I hung in with hope longer than most people, and unlike most I placed HL3 as being a 2019 title all the way back in 2012. But even though I'm still within my own time-frame, I don't imagine I can muster much interest until I actually see results. Valve has to rebuild themselves in my eyes.
