Lmao it’s been a minute since I’ve seen this. Guess I’ll go get some Starbucks and watch some Friends to recover from this burn.

Having just checked that flag, damn, we don’t get any fun colors?!?

What’s your point?
- Comment on Trumps says Venezuelan jets will be 'shot down' if they endanger US ships 3 days ago:
I think the blame mostly lies on Ford there, and I’d say my response speaks more to how low of a bar modern presidencies have set rather than my feelings on East Timor.
- Comment on Trumps says Venezuelan jets will be 'shot down' if they endanger US ships 3 days ago:
You could make a case for the Carter administration. The worst knocks against him were arms sales to Indonesia after their invasion of East Timor and to the Shah before the Iranian Revolution. Probably some reactionary leaders in South America too.
Besides that you’d have to go all the way back to Hoover who may have been completely unequipped to resolve the Great Depression but did do a ton of work with humanitarian food aid during and in the wake of the First World War. It’s very likely he saved tens of millions of lives from starvation.

Act civilized, act kind, act tolerant, because this is the problem with what’s happening in the region
This isn’t a one way street, Tom. Israel isn’t achieving any of these targets

I’m with you on the price. I’d probably have one already if it was 150

This feels like an incomplete thought that doesn’t go far enough to spark any sort of conversation.

It’s been a long time since I’ve browsed that cesspool, but I remember all the pedos getting banned and going over to the other image boards like 8chan. Been more than a decade though and that was when moot still ran things

I played super hot on my friend’s quest 2, that was definitely a workout

Yeah I’d find a used one for sure. Can’t stand Meta

Reading this has me almost considering one. I feel like I still wouldn’t use it enough for it to be worth it.
- Comment on Microsoft Still Can't Say How Much the ROG Xbox Ally X Will Cost Due to "Macro-Economic" Conditions, Despite Announcing Release Date and Availability Details(Leaked prices $549.99/$899 for Ally/Ally ) 2 weeks ago:
They walked back the $80 price point, but I definitely agree they’re trying to figure out ways to push people to gamepass. They just keep stepping on rakes

Microsoft seems to be throwing in the towel as far as driving people to their storefront is concerned. They’ll be putting out all their games on anything that can run them.

- Comment on Red Dead Redemption 2 was amazing. 5 weeks ago:
Yeah that tedium doesn’t go away, imo. There’s a mission that seems inconsequential at the time, but has huge implications for the main character that I really didn’t want to engage with, but the story is the story, there isn’t much if any player agency.
