for the record I don't like Perez and from the beginning Iv said that Ellison should have been chair (since he has actual electoral experience) but you can't look at that utterly shook, sweating, gasping stick man and tell me that he's not collapsing like peter dauo on a 70 degree NY day

ME1 was the best written of the series I think, but gently caress ever playing it again. ME2 had much better gameplay and the characters were fun and likeable. The plot was also decent, since you had this whole 'bond with your teammates' that led into the 'potential suicide mission' thing. It didn't really fit very well with the broader Reaper story though, since who the poo poo cares about one baby Reaper when the galaxy is about to get invaded by a massive fleet of em, but it was fun as its own story. ME3 was fun and enjoyable, and even the ending wasn't that bad so long as you realize the only ending that 'fits' is control because Shepherd is not only indoctrinated by that point, but becoming an immortal machine god is self evidently the best choice. Andromeda looks pretty trash and I don't have patience for open world games anymore. Ive heard its super fun to actually play though.

i have been moving and also the last month has been godawful and my favorite candidate dropped out early, so i kinda put off looking at NJ Dem primary candidates really in depth until uh, now. i've been on a candidate watching binge and i have opinions Jim Johnson (or is that john jimson) - pros: big ethics reform person, i like everything he wants to do on this subject. wants to bring back estate tax  cons: nothing much about healthcare other than "fight donny", education funding is great but doesn't talk about college, considers his favorite town to be seaside heights WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU Ray "Who?" Lesniak pros: big environmental person, wants complete renewables by 2020 (which i think is a little... optimistic) cons: doesn't go far enough on anything else, at all. a big believer in taking care of the olds, rather than  Phil "I Will Win" Murphy pros: he's gonna win. direct funding to transportation please thank sweet jesus, this public bank seems interesting, increase taxes on rich cons: he's gonna win. big time literal goldman sachs billionaire. wishy washing on healthcare, doesn't seem like he'll do much beyond nothing unless ACHA passes. takes the actual romney approach to healthcare in that regard, which i mean is fine i guess. reminds me of corzine. John Wisniewski pros: he is the berniebro in this election. has the entire policy suite ctrl-c from bernie's website. prosecuted bridgegate  cons: rutgers grad. i mentioned this before but he seems very ugh to me, like yeah his policies work, but he honestly runs around with something that resembles a prosecution complex and he seems very whiny. he might be a berniebro but bernie didn't even take the two minute tweet to endorse him, which is telling me something.

My optimism is derived from my faith in the democratic electorate; not the party. I place no trust in Perez or the useless babbling wallkicker democratic pundits but I believe for me personally I get really miserable and depressed when I get nihilistic. People like Bernie, Ellison, and Corbyn have obviously not given up hope in the progressive cause so I don't the reason to give up either.

On second thought that's the root of all authoritarian ideology, not right-wing ideology, but Kotor2 still had the stuff about charity making people weak and dependent so my point still stands.

While the book deal money is kind of spurious given the context of his admin approving that publisher merger, I also don't really have a problem with it because his and Michelle's writing will absolutely sell.
