Billy Butler: Fat Guy by Day, Doubles Machine by Night

I wish I could say I now read better fiction except I barely read books anymore :(

As I always tell my students: there is not time to read unless you consciously decide to devote time to reading. But you have plenty of time! You go to the gym? Instead of watching TV on the treadmill put in an audiobook. You cook dinner? While your standing around stirring vegetables use your other hand to hold a book. You re-watching Parks and Rec on Netflix for the 5th time? Set aside the first 22 minutes for reading. If you read half an hour everyday you can read 50 books a year.

Okay, I'll get off my literature soap box now.

Too bad they havent done anything about what a piece of repetitive garbage every single game they make is. But hey, the wrapper they wrapped the game up in aligns with my politics!

Fear is the glue that holds society together. It's what makes people suppress their worst impulses. Fear is power.

And at the end of fear, oblivion.

I saw that dork's CNN interview earlier and had to Google him after how embarrassing it was. This picture came up and it explained everything. Just random creepy fat guy Republican #153. Apparently he drinks too much and gets handsy with women that work for him.

Generally yes? It's mostly WW2 Axis powers, Russian nationalists, and PMCs. In Ghosts the antagonists were a separatist North American Union.

More or less (which is why I find them kind of boring as a faction) but they're in space and that's all that matters.

And conversely the guy who got Trump imprisoned. "In short, Jim Comey is a man of contrasts." will be a phrase seen in every 7th grader's US history essay circa 2050.
