sports NFL Smack-Talking Thread 2024/25: America’s Last Freedom Ball!
SwimOdin replied to 1pooh4u's topic in General Discussion
I want Atlanta to make Kirk play all the preseason games. If you’d told me a year ago how much I was going to sour on him, I would’ve been shocked. -
Thank goodness for weed.

I feel weirdly pessimistic about a product that’s not out and I was probably not going to buy. I was gifted a Switch, wasn’t planning on even getting it. I love Nintendo but I can’t do games that pricey, and their first party titles rarely drop in price, so I can’t even play the waiting game. Please, Bandai Namco, make Duskbloods just console exclusive.

Now seeing a lot of speculation that the game prices have the tariffs built in, and that makes sense, but it’s pricing me out regardless. Thanks Trump.

Whoa, none of the convenience of digital OR physical. NINTENDO CONTINUES TO INNOVATE
-
Looks neat, it’s the first time since basically the SNES that Nintendo made a new system without INNOVATION. Games are fucking $90, though. I will stick to portable PCs. Steam is cheap.

Flagrantly on the spectrum -

Maybe now Shapiro will have time to research how to please a woman.

Conspiracy theory time! What if everything he did and he’s doing was to clear the way for this bizarre and most likely illegal shuffling of debt? He’s much less likely to suffer any consequences now, and he can rid himself of the albatross he turned Twitter into. -

That seems perfectly legal and not at all fraudulent. -
I’m sorry, don’t give up

…AND?

Remember democracy? -
Looking forward to no consequences for anyone involved.

DRACONIAN REPUBLICAN POLICY LEADS TO RETURN OF MIDIEVAL LABOR LAWS Hoo boy I will be now posting a wall of text unrelated to this, but it will be long.It's been four months since daily life shut down, to be replaced by shelter-in-place, distance learning, hoarding for the apocalypse, and trying-to-work from home for a full-time job. Surprisingly, work has been the one thing that has felt the least disrupted since mostly I've been the keep-it-to-yourself-and-get-your-shit-done kind...and distance-working has fit into this anti-social mode just fine. I laugh (on the inside of course) every Friday afternoon at my group's "forced-socialization" sessions -- known to the colleauges as a Virtual Beer Bash; but lately there's been little beer, no bashing to speak of, and we all seem to be going through the motions miserably for thirty minutes pretending to be interested in the personal lives of people we otherwise couldn't care less about outside of work...if not for the Covid thing; heck, if we're lucky, someone might have some ice cream on their end of the Webex or something -- and I wonder if that's what this world is coming to: people seeking out solace in sharing stuff with others. But how meaningful is it really, when the people you socialize with are conveniently the ones you work with, rather than people of your own choosing? And similarly, what happens if due to circumstances beyond your control (*cough*covid*cough*), you have not been in any contact all for four months with those who previously brightened your days, one small innocous-transactional ping at a time? Video conferencing does a great job standing in for scheduled meetings and such; but not such a good job replicating the spontaneous unplanned interpersonal interactions that provide variety to an otherwise banal existence we call "the daily grind." Sad, really.

Oh definitely, he will claim to not know anything about it, ironically making himself look worse, then when he finds out that makes him look weak, he will double down on that they purposefully sent it to a journalist because they were so confident with the plan that they wanted it to go public.

This is genuinely terrifying

And to think they didn’t even win that year.

She’s bonded well with the whole family and my grandson often wants her to sleep in his room after I told him cats can strike faster than snakes. He feels safe with her so it’s been really sweet.
