Holy shit this was so funny. I had to describe it as “mathematically funny” and “the joke structure is like a fractal where each absurdity plays into the next truth which goes into the next absurdity which makes the next little truth hit so much harder. Allegedly.

I didn’t even know she was in it because I tune out so hard the second Jared Leto pops up. It’s a lovecraftian horror reflex to keep my mind intact.

As someone who, I assume, shares or used to share a surname with you - I’ve always loved being named Taco Bueno.

I thought Ray was just having a fun civil war dream.

I just mean she’s still grifting on the whole “right wing media” deal. She came from money, did nothing special with it, lived in cracker mediocrity, then saw her net worth skyrocket when she was elected.

She’s a true believer in this - but I doubt anything else. Maybe CrossFit.

Qanon = Thule society

Mtg = Rudolf Hess except the Scots captured him before he could realize Hitler was just using his little group to get power.

Mtg is a true believer - and this is too blatant for her to ignore and just go with the propaganda.

I think she is a true believer. She got her start from Qanon talking about wanting to get rid of pedophiles. I legitimately think she believed the propaganda until it became this blatant.

She’s still a grifting bigot, but even a fascist clock is right twice a day I guess?

My one conspiracy theory is that he can see a little bit. He’s sitting courtside - he caught that mic stand McCartney knocked over at We are the World…

Still, I support any gong not used in a corporate sales environment.

Like I said - the scene I was exposed to wasn’t that big - there could definitely still be people here who play - but the people
I played with started quitting around when the revised core set got released. At least that’s when I started noticing.

Oh I know - it just wasn’t a big scene (that I knew about) in the DFW suburbs near me even when FFG supported it.

Citing the “martyrdom” of Charlie Kirk, Texas AG Ken Paxton says his office is pursuing sweeping undercover investigations into “leftist” groups. “To those demented souls who seek to kill, steal, and destroy our country, know this: you cannot hide, you cannot escape, and justice is coming."

"Leftist political terrorism is a clear and present danger. Corrupted ideologies like transgenderism and Antifa are a cancer on our culture and have unleashed their deranged and drugged-up foot soldiers on the American people," said Attorney General Paxton. "The martyrdom of Charlie Kirk marks a turning point in America.
There can be no compromise with those who want us dead. To that end, I have directed my office to continue its efforts to identify, investigate, and infiltrate these leftist terror cells. To those demented souls who seek to kill, steal, and destroy our country, know this: you cannot hide, you cannot escape, and justice is coming."
The radical Left has incubated an environment where political violence is not only justified but celebrated and praised. In July, nearly two dozen armed leftists connected to various Texas-based Antifa-like groups ambushed an Immigration and Customs Enforcement ("ICE") facility in Alvarado, Texas. On September 10, 2025, a leftist assassin connected to the radical transgender movement murdered Charlie Kirk because of Kirk's bold support for truth, love of country, and unshakable faith. Two weeks later, another deranged leftist opened fire at an ICE facility in Dallas.
President Donald Trump has officially designated Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization and instructed his administration to "utilize all applicable authorities to investigate, disrupt, and dismantle any and all illegal operations — especially those involving terrorist actions — conducted by Antifa." Building on President Trump's bold actions, Attorney General Paxton has instructed his office to initiate sweeping investigations into radical leftist organizations engaged in or providing support to those performing political violence.

Let’s not pretend the first one for the LCG was that much better:). I’ve never been so humbled playing a card game as Android: Netrunner. It was brutal and I miss the game.

Looking back it was WAY too big a deal for me (mainly from some childhood shit I worked through in therapy eventually).

I wish we’d have just come up with our own when we got married. New family, new name.

Yeah you’re talking about AI - but this could apply to the entire USA as a concept right now.

Hey, why are you lying about using our content to train AI? Are you just a huge piece of shit like every other tech bro?
