- Comment on Cory Booker Aide Arrested on Gun Charge While Boss Blabs for 23 Hours | Headline USA 1 week ago:
It’s always weird when conservatives happily post when someone on the other team gets hit with a gun charge.
Retired LEO arrested for carrying a gun while on Capitol hill? That’s a win?
- Comment on In almost 100% of scenarios that I can think of, the underdog is always the "good guy" 1 month ago:
The reason stories exist of the underdog winning, is because the underdogs lose almost all the time.
Also, David basically brought a gun to a knife fight against Goliath. Seems like Goliath should have been considered the underdog :3
- Comment on Does anyone actually know what MAGA all agree they are getting out of all this? 2 months ago:
But what are illegal immigrants doing that is bad? They pay taxes (sales tax, property tax via rent, and income tax if they have a stolen ID), they buy things, they contribute labor. We’re spending money to deport and hold them. It’s all a net negative.
If the problem is that they are undocumented, then document them. Give them work visas. They don’t get the right to vote or have access to welfare systems with a work visa.
How many children of immigrants speak really good English? They usually translate for their parents in my experience. Which means they are assimilating to the culture. It also seems most time the first child might have a more ethnic name, the first grandchildren usually have more American names.
Illegal immigrants commit less crime per capita, which makes sense because if you are here illegally and do crime, you get deported after your sentence. They have a bigger incentive to not do crime.
America was built by immigrants, we’re known as the cultural melting pot. When did it become such a big deal and so restricted to enter the country? Our birth rates arent high enough to sustain us forever, we need immigration.
- Comment on Judge sentences Ohio woman who "embarrassed this nation" by eating cat 4 months ago:
Someone in Ohio ate a cat on a drug fueled rampage. She wasn’t Haitian and she doesn’t live near Springfield.
The “rumor” or outrage is someone posted that clip and claimed or inferred she was a Haitian migrant from Springfield.
There’s also a photo of a black man holding a goose by the neck. Is this photo from Ohio? Does this person have a reason to hold a goose by the neck? Who knows, but we will just say he’s a Springfield Haitian.
There’s also a lady who called 911 and reported her neighbor stole and ate her cat. When people investigated later, she admitted her cat just got out and had returned home.

I guess it’s only cancel culture when the left do it?

I imagine as kids we eventually got through it on accident. Like out of frustration we mashed the down button to make our jump land harder and it actually worked xD

The spinning barrel at the end can be solved by jumping on it and holding Up or Down to match the direction of the barrel. It will make the bounce distance enormous enough to hop off on the down swing.
- Comment on World of Warcraft adds $90 mount to in game store 5 months ago:
It’s actually more insidious. Blizzard facilitates gold buying by being a middle man. 30 days of wow subscription is $15. Blizzard sells a $20 wow token. Buyers of the token automatically sell it in game to players for gold. Players who sell their In game gold can redeem the token for game time or $15 Blizzard bucks, which can buy any virtual item in the Blizzard store. Games, expansions, and mounts such as this.
If you don’t want to spend $90 in real life, you can sell your gold for 6 tokens for $90 Blizzard bucks and get the mount.
The token has been hovering around $190k all year and now it spiked to almost $400k (token price tracker). So now cash buyers can get way more gold for their bucks, and the 6 tokens exchanged for gold (to buy the mount) will net Blizzard $120.

I can see this random tweet from Taylor Swift just fine in incognito mode. I can’t look at replies but I can see her posts.

So let’s say on Twitter, someone blocks me and I can’t read their post. Can’t I just log out and read their post that way? I don’t have a Twitter account, so I’ve never seen a blocked link before.
