Anarchists are so effective at material change that the United States had to change the name of an international holiday to erase their successes.

Second in a day. This is going to get a lot worse and soon.

If you think we can just stop these people by voting, I’m curious, were you alive and eating solid food in 2000? The SCOTUS can simply declare someone president, overriding the electorate, and the last time they did it, they were a much less conservative court.

Ironically I think if Biden dropped out and Harris ran, she’d get a lot of leftist votes that would normally never vote for a cop. But I get it; it feels right to pat the Dems on the back if they do literally ANYTHING to address the problems of the day. Hell I’d consider it.

Imagine typing and posting this when SCOTUS just stated it’s perfectly okay that the president did fraud for personal enrichment. Why should we respect ANY laws?

Our instinct seems to be that if a man is good, he’s clearly not a REAL MAN, and that’s disgusting on a million levels.

I find this so gross and disgusting. MEN CAN BE COOL AND CHILL WITH TRANS ISSUES WITHOUT BEING TRANS. Let good men exist. Jeez.

Beyond his obvious problems, Biden is the worst possible person to be President in this historical moment. He doesn't speak about Supreme Court corruption because he's a supposed "institutionalist," he convened a "commission" which came to nothing, he has absolutely no fire to rally the country, etc

What a fucked up lifetime of being betrayed and sold out by "the adults in the room"

Part of how we got here has been to leave too much of the discussion about all of this to lawyers. People feel like they can't understand the courts without law degrees and that's just not true. But we're left without a robust group of non-lawyer activists and organizers who could offer leadership.

So it turns out Biden could have used the drone program on Manchin and Sinema this whole time and I was right.

Yes, actually. My first professional work toward SCOTUS reform was during the 2000 election campaign. Why do you ask?

“I don’t think we should bomb this hospital” is pro-Putin but so is “they bombed that hospital they bragged about bombing.” To not be pro-Putin, you must believe it’s GOOD that they bomb hospitals, but that they never REALLY do and if someone, even the IDF, says they did it’s just propaganda.

And Dems will only rely on number five. Time and again they will not take a single meaningful action. Just “vote for us 100% of the time without fail and things will be okay.”

Remember how Obama ran on it and repeatedly said that on day one he’d codify Roe? Then six months later he said it wasn’t a priority? He would have done it if not for Sinema and Manchin! Those pesky rascals.

“I will take the senile guy doing ethnic cleansing over the senile guy doing ethnic cleansing and ending abortion…” Okay I get the math but I need to know that YOU know how fucking dismal this sounds to someone who isn’t brainwashed. I need to maintain that faith in humanity.

And you can't just make excuses. Like it sucks if you're ADHD. I am. But I still have to read if I want to improve my craft. I have to find a way. You cannot improve upon a shared, cultural craft in a cultural vacuum.

Been helping people do multiplayer to win the final DLC fight.

It’s REALLY fun in multiplayer. With a support player and two kinds of fighters, it’s an outstanding “raid boss.” It really lets builds shine that would never ever compete alone.

No the game is 100% vibes I get it. It’s why I run around in the deathbed dress or something most of the time.

This is a fairly ambiguous question but have you been trying out the new weapons? Some of the dlc weapons are just monsters for dex/faith. Milady with Wing Stance and Flame Art infusion would be a demolisher.

I had a shield with Carian Retaliation and I was using a heavy bleed greatsword so he was basically stunlocked from the moment he started attacking. But it might have been tough if I didn’t chance on the perfect build to take him down.

I think with Alexander’s Shard, it was dishing out over 2600 per hit. And the Ash of War attack, it does about 2-4 hits per second, with the slower swings hitting much harder. It melts anything in the base game in seconds.

Playing a NG+ run with DLC stuff. Dancing Blade of Ranah is amazing. Utterly phenomenal. With Thorny Cracked Tear, Millicent’s Prosthesis, Rotten Winged Sword Insignia, the Dancer Set, Golden Vow, and Flame Grant Me Strength it goes from 400~ damage to 1600+ damage in one combo.

Mena is now running professional games. #iHunt and D&D. This thread explains better than I can, but I'd LOVE it if you helped us fill these seats. Partly because it's also my electricity you'll be helping keep on. But also because Mena's a DAMNED good GM, and you will have so much fun omg.

Agreed completely. Although our "hobby" is also our job. This is just a different way to interact with it.

When I was a man, it was "You'll never be a REAL MAN." Now I'm a woman, it's "You'll never be a REAL WOMAN." Pick a fucking lane.
