In an ideal world, I would pick a progressive 10/10 times.
However we don't live in an ideal world. If your options are warm, stale beer or a steaming cup of shit, I'm going to pick the better option, every time. I'll push for more ideal options the next go around, but I won't sink the ship and damn me and everyone to having to deal with shit the next 4 years because I didn't get what I want.
XCOM: UFO Defense (1994)
It's by far the best version of XCOM. I mean. The graphics are as great, but it has all of the same features as the modern version (not joking), and I think the strategy is by far better. You can also have your own base that you have to defend.
Who could have ever forseen this?
Trump: "I declare that we're having peace talks!"
Advisor: "Mr. President, that's not how it works. You can't just declare that two parties, that you're not a part of and evidently shown you have zero control over, are now having peace talks."
Trump: "...but I declared it."
So much for "innocent until proven guilty".
Fuck off right now. I just got to this stage in life. Ugh. They are so comfortable though....
Approximately 500,000 years ago, when someone made a tiny spear. They just didn't know it was an arrow at the time.
I mean what is an arrow, but a much smaller spear?
I just missed my flight. I was stressed and upset. This greentext.....holy shit. I'm in tears laughing. Thanks!
You act like it's easy. Republican states shred their data before turning it over (like what happened in Georgia a few years back over one of the state races. It's a cyclical issue. You can't look at the data if you don't have the evidence to warrant looking at it, and you can't get the evidence if you can't look at the data.
But no....the anomalies aren't made up. You just haven't been paying attention to what's been going on with it, and that's okay, it's a lot to keep up with.
I bring it up here on Lemmy, because it was primarily the ML leftists (on Lemmy) that pushed the idea to skip voting as a way to protest Kamala as a choice....that it was better to permit an authoritarian to take office than allow a centrist democrat. I would 100% would have liked someone like Bernie taking office, but when I'm presented with 'kick in the nuts' vs being castrated as my only options, I'll take the 'kick in the nuts' everytime.
