I had a desktop background with the word "removed" as a teenager (don't know if anyone here remembers Maddox, but this was his influence). Then my older sister saw it and (verbally) beat the shit out of me until I removed it in shame. I owe her a lot.

I also don't have a totenkopf or did 18 years in Blackwater.

Just to add context, he claims his totenkopf and the "bolts" (SS insignia) that his fellow marines/soldier boys had were just gotten as a show of team spirit and that it's clearly preposterous to suggest that soldiers in the US army would be nazis.

Fuckin wild

I know we say it a lot, but god damn what a disgusting society (edit: it's twitter, but still)

I'm a dumbass, can someone tell me what this means? No third-party/unsanctioned apps?

Maybe I should watch a playthough sometime, because I just couldn't force myself through it

What non-vegan food do you think is essential for babies other than B12 and maybe iron (both of which can easily be supplemented)?

I mean, the only time I've had the displeasure of interacting with a self-proclaimed carnivore, he tried very hard to convince me that meat production is really not connected to climate change at all. So it's hard to think that these kinds of influencer-diets aren't a psyop to make people more invested in animal products, at least to some degree. I'm sure there are some true believers as well, of course.

This had less to do with raw/cooked food, and more just a general vibe of "meat is the real superfood (and I also really like the taste), therefore it can't be bad for the environment!".

Ah yes, religion. Famously not part of anyone's personal experience.

Who said the second one? I never heard that

"Never be housebroken" is just like "you'll never be clean/acceptable/part of polite society" and I think the cigarette one means something like "you shouldn't be able to slide a piece of paper between the two parties on the topic of immigration" but I'm not sure.

Thank fucking god

 

IIRC the one I played ca. 2006 was called Globalia. It was super nerdy shit where you had to structure your posts like official government statements, very "model UN" kind of thing.

Shoutout to my based younger self getting to play Cuba and immediately allying with Al-Qaeda and trying to get nukes (they kicked me out for this)
