I'm really unsure whether you take you seriously or dismiss you as a troll, especially considering your name has stuff like "feminist" and "Hamas" in it at the same time, and also "Putin #1 Fan".

Like, seriously, a fan of Putin? The Kremlin goblin currently losing a war to a much smaller nation?

"Perfect is the enemy of good" - what Mamdani is proposing is 100 times better than his opposition, and more in line with what you see in the Nordics, so why not vote for the candidate who is mostly there, instead of waiting for the perfect candidate and handing the victory to the least deserving?

The role of the royal family is primarily ceremonial and for the sake of "tradition". Laws are proposed and legislated in our parliament, and our MPs are elected. All the king does is sign on the dotted line at the end.

That also means there's 18% non-white population, or ~1/5.

I can attest to this. Granted, most of the non-white population is Middle-Eastern, but we have Asian and African immigrants or adoptees as well.

But aside from the occasional trouble with parallel communities, integration is fine here.

Items slowly rotating and hovering 10-20 cm off the ground, and disappearing as soon as you touch them.

Like, how is it hovering? Why does it disappear when you touch it? Why does it show up in miniature form in my pocket? What is happening???!?

It'll be interesting to see how well it runs on a Switch 2. It's a very pretty game, but it's also a very demanding game.

That is absolutely hilarious and amazing, even if it's just a small quote citation on a holo page in a VR game.

And after Vince left Infinity Ward, he created Respawn Entertainment and went right back to EA...

Is it a "Keep your friends close, your enemies closer" situation or a "stick with the devil you know" situation?

For better performance, for fewer bugs, and for Super Earth!

(And with that, Warframe will not only have survived Destiny 1, but Destiny 2 as well, and unless they make a Destiny 3, it'll have come before and survived long after the entire Destiny franchise)

Bungie's done nothing but make blunder after blunder in recent times. Their reputation is in the gutter, the CEO f*cked off with millions in his pocket, countless layoffs, plagiarism in Marathon, etc. etc.

I wouldn't be surprised if they announced a full closure of D2 before Q1 2027.

Last Week Tonight has 32 Emmys, 8 WGA awards, 9 PGA awards, and 3 Peabody awards. Also FYI, the Peabody Award is the radio and television equivalent of a Pulitzer.

John Oliver and his team of writers do AMAZING work.

Now it does beg the question of what a "lovable villain" even is. Like, is it a "love to hate" or a "hate to love" kind of villain? is it a villain with lots of charisma? Is the villain the protagonist, and the good guy the antagonist? Is it a misunderstood and "villainized" character by society?

America has a considerable history of car-centric infrastructure design, and massive amounts of lobbying from car and fuel companies to incentivize road construction, and de-incentivize train/bus/bike infrastructure, so that much is true. But it shouldn't be the #1 issue on people's minds right now.

I don't get it either. Why not put on a nice pair of noise cancelling headphones so you can hear your music (or the other person on the phone call) better, while also not bothering people around you? Even cheap headphones these days can have some form of ANC, and those that don't, can seal tight.

The justice department doesn't have a streaming service I can cancel. There's nothing much I can do from over here.

He accidentally said the quiet part out loud on live television. "Plenary" means "absolute" or "total", as in, no restrictions whatsoever, and that's clearly not the case, legally, right now at least. Miller is pulling a lot of strings behind the scenes to make that a reality, and he slipped up.

Supply Side Jesus maybe.

MAGA Christians, evangelical Christians, doomsday cult Christians, etc. are the total antithesis of what the teachings of Jesus. Kindness, compassion, empathy, humility, grace, generosity, that's what the New Testament is supposed to be about.

Is that the same CNN anchor that interviewed Stephen Miller when he short circuited after saying Trump had "plenary authority"?

That last one is going to backfire, because Russia has an enormous underground network of shell companies and buyers and sellers and smugglers who procure the stuff locally and legally and smuggle it back to Russia through private individuals and the like. They don't sell directly to Russia.
