hmm, something tells me that facepaint will come into style in the next 10 years...

music video that plays with this idea

That's kinda how he works.

He's a "better politician" than the other much older politicians because he can explain the problems and blame Republicans and old politicians for the problems but ultimately his solutions are the same.

Also he comes straight from private equity and refuses to say anything bad about them. As a matter of fact he's the first politician I have ever heard say "no". Full stop, no weaseling out of it. It was when he was asked about his prior employers and their involvement in a price fixing scandal over Canadian bread prices.

So... yeah I don't like him

I once had a study partner who was raised like that. We were scheduling our first after school study session and trying to figure out time. I shoot out sunday and he goes "nah I have church, wait don't you have church?" "nah, I'm an atheist"

dude vanished. Three days later I notice him trying to like... hide in a hoodie towards the opposite side of the class. I walk over, worried I offended him or something. He basically tells me that he can't interact with satanists and I just go "look, if you don't wanna interact with me, don't. You don't have to hide in a corner or try to avoid me. If you wanna draw the line at just existing in the same room, ok then."

To his credit, he did try to have a study session with me after that, but I had to end it early. The dude was so on edge, it was like he was convinced I was gonna stab him at any moment.

Years later he contacted me to apologize out of the blue on facebook. Went completely off grid traveling the world. My guess trying to compensate for just how little he knew of it.

I mean, the bigger reveal is him admitting that over half the Jewish vote probably voted for Mamdani.

He pushed the antisemitism HARD. Every outlet pushed the antisemitism HARD. He's admitting point blank it failed miserably.

Like, the most devils advocate I can be for her vote is that she's arguing that we shouldn't take away their shield, we should take away their spear.

To which... I still don't see the logic. Because if you can block with one hand you're free to stab with the other. If all you have is stabby implements, you got no way to deal with when they stab back.

They'd be forced to be less aggressive, which they seem intent to be.

That is a well done photoshop

bravo

It doubly won't work since isn't Eric Adams doing the same thing? Two establishment politicians running as independents?

I'm actually planning a twoshot of DC20 next week. So hopefully I will be able to do just that.

From everything I've been reading I've liked quite a bit, hopefully it works just as well in practice.

Not a movie but 18 episodes, Arcane is full of massive, massive feels.

Hits multiple times in different ways. If you want the full gamut of emotional.

Yeah, when it takes 3 or 4 lakes of thatch to make a thatch roof, you only ever get one building.

The amount of stone required for bricks, the amount reed required for any sort of storage, the amount of sticks to power your kiln. There's so much grinding for base materials that making anything pretty cuts so deep into your survival.

Leather in particular sucked because you needed borax or limestone or chalk. Took so long to find but it was the difficulty of building materials that drove me absolutely batty.

Was just about to recommend this. Really wish I could get a server of people playing it. Single player is ROUGH. It takes so much time and effort to build cool stuff in survival and there's just not enough time to gather all the raw resources in a day.
