Well, to the surprise of no one, that was kinda terrible. But I guess that's expected when you try to force an extended story out of this.. However, it does raise one interesting idea to me.. I don't think this ever really needed to be a whole-ass series, but, I could definitely see them pulling an Adventure Time and occasionally having guest writers or animators or whatever.

2024 Presidential Elections: the schadenfreude commences
rpgamer replied to NewBluntsworth's topic in Current Events
Y'know, MD has kinda baffled me for a few pages now.. I mean, she was with everyone else looking for Biden to step aside as it became increasingly likely he couldn't beat Trump. But, now there's a candidate that is looking in a pretty good position, and she keeps attacking, for the flimsiest reasons? But, I've finally realized it was never a concern about Biden beating Trump. It looks more like a blind assumption that Biden stepping down means Trump is the default winner. And/or, like any good jongo, she's just here to parrot the latest Fucks News talking points. -

Ok, can anyone un-Trumpify this in a way that gives some actual context to those of us sane enough to stay off of any of these sites? -
Elon Musk now owns Twitter, apparently trying to run it into the ground
rpgamer replied to Jman's topic in Current Events
I'm confused how MD even thinks Musk has a leg to stand on here.. the dude literally told these companies to "go fuck themselves, I don't want you to advertise here." Is it even a boycott at that point? -
Tomba finally re-released.. now I gotta decide if I want it on PC, or wait for the PS4 release. Seems only fitting to have it properly back on console..

Not just falling for, but parroting here as if anyone else left on these boards is dumb enough to fall for it . Really is going full jongo -

What do you expect when someone declares "mainstream media" the enemy? "Yeah, unlike you sheep, I get my news from an alternative source that no reputable agency knows it trusts. And I know I don't need to face check anything from them because they're not mainstream so they would never lie."

I mean.. honestly, genetics aside, it's not exactly like she's completely dominating in her field. Kinda feels like all the arguments would hold a lot more water if, due to whatever genetic expression, she had a clear and undeniable advantage over all the competition. As is, most arguments against her seem to not-so-subtly be (failing to) skirt around the "she looks like a dude" complaint.

Damn. Utterly fascinating how he seemed to latch onto that whole "unity" message after his near-miss, as if he thinks that's key to winning over anyone. The latest buzz word to make him sound like the better choice.. except every single call for unity always seems couched in an attack against one group or another... -

No no, they just need to find an angle to make a Trump dictatorship palatable. -
Had some thoughts recently about the whole thing.. like.. just, so many of the people that watch have literally no investment or actual interest in any of it. Most of the global audience probably don't even know half the sports/events, less likely to know or understand scoring for some of them, zero knowledge of competitors, poor understanding of what it takes to get there.. just on and on. All anyone really cares about is their country and how many gold medals their "team" wins. It just feels so bizarre. And, like you say, people be having opinions about shit they knew nothing about two weeks ago as if everyone's an expert now. It just feels farcical, the way the average dimwit viewer has no interest prior, gets suddenly fired up for any opportunity to feel "we're number one!!" and immediately forgets all of it a few weeks later. Idk.. just struck me as odd one day thinking about how number of gold medals is all most see or care about.. not even the feats that accomplish them.

Demon Slayer: Swordsmith Village premiers on 8/10
rpgamer replied to Toonamiguy321's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Eh, maybe a bit early to call that one.. I mean, the train arc was also originally a movie that also got the episodic treatment. And ffs, if we had to sit through the shitty final finale finisher srsly last one of AoT, we could sure as hell handle these. -

I'm sure there's a perfectly reasonable and not at all weird explanation for this. -

rpgamer replied to Toonamiguy321's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Looking ahead, since I've been flip-flopping on cutting the cord.. this arc is still all up available on.. Netflix, I think, right? And I expect Uzumaki will get the typical "next day on Max" treatment.. Kinda hate losing the block vibes (even tho I've been relegated to DVR squad for a while now..). But just can't sustain currently.. -
So, is the SCOTUS Looking to Destroy the Country….

Exactly the sort of thing he should've been doing from the start, with the expectation of being a one term president cleaning up after the last shitstain. -

I'm sure by now there's a good meme out there of the "thin blue line" folks stressing out over the choice between voting for a convicted felon or voting for a cop.. -

Just realized, too.. GOP is trying to use the same argument they did for SC nominations..: "It's too close to the election now, you can't just pick someone new." -
2024 Presidential Elections: the schadenfreude commences
rpgamer replied to NewBluntsworth's topic in Current Events
This was the narrative I was kinda looking forward to. There's zero logic to it, and it's painfully obvious they wanted the same easy target all the way up to election. Pure panic. Almost makes me want to see Biden just resign out of pure spite and just let her take over. "What? No, what, you can't just resign, that's not fair!" Almost. -

I'm just saying.. not being on the ticket isn't necessarily the same thing as not being in the ground.. and we weren't that far off from a country mourning both expected nominees. -

Can you imagine what it must be like living in the timeline where Trump took a load to the face and covid put Biden down? This honestly feels like smooth sailing compared to the absolute chaos we narrowly avoided.. ......Ok, so, like.. how late could they possibly push that? Like... even if Trump does win, could Biden, say.. choose to tap out in, like, December, putting Harris in as 47 for just a couple months prior to transfer of power? Pleasepleaseplease, if everything starts going to hell, please let everyone be that petty. We need one last good laugh. I was kinda mulling this over, too. After the debate, when whispers started going around.. even if he did seriously consider it, I think the optics of dropping out right after that debate would look horrible. Had to project strength as best he could for the moment, but knowing there was a limit on how long they could push it. Now is maybe more decent timing (and running out of decent time besides). Covid gives another layer, to have a fresh reminder of his health concerns, and you've got an ok narrative to say "ok, yeah, now we can do this without looking like a complete embarrassment." -

Idk guys. He might have a point. I mean, look, the last time an incumbent president lost re-election was *checks notes* four years ago. All of recent history says it just doesn't happen. The masses will always want to vote for someone they know can be president over somebody that's never held the office.
