There's a debate over a Confederate monument here. Then this days before one of the city's more prominent African-American cultural events.

The park is where the black community was forcibly evicted from in the 1920s to make room for an expansion of the women's university because the whites didn't want blacks nearby.

In fact, it's made out of bulletproof safety glass. Tough stuff. Which means whoever did it took a real hammering to it.

the massively falling birth rates from millennials literally not having enough money to survive on, let alone raise a family is the other half

No, the entirely of the problem is definitely because of this new form of entertainment that their parents did not have, and thus must be sinful and harmful to the brain and soul

Millennials would be fine if they spent all their free time staring at the television without interacting with it, like good red blooded Americans

There's an article from last year where I think Trump's ghostwriter did a psychoanalysis of him, and basically Trump lives entirely in the present. He ignores past failures and lets mistakes and issues slide like water off a duck's back, sometimes with such speed that it seems like he has amnesia, but he also doesn't think any farther into the future beyond what he's getting from his current actions.

He desires praise and attention and doesn't give a poo poo where it's from, so he'll simultaneously pander to his base and the Democrats (even if this makes no sense and he swings wildly between pissing off each side) depending on how much praise it'll get him.

Basically, don't view Trump as anyone with a plan or solid views on any position.

it's actually really funny how they think the past few years of developers or more importantly publishers have let them put up their product for free with worthless commentary over it on youtube because it seems to move product is some established standard and not a bunch of IP holders trying to make money off their backs which will end the instant the constant drama bombs start to hurt their revenue
That's honestly the part that confuses me the most about this "controversy." I'm not a big fan of IP law and all the bullshit it gets used for but this is pretty much open and shut, right? Game dead have allowed LPs on YouTube out the kindness of their heart (and because it boosts sales), they don't actually have even the tiniest obligation to allow it. So people losing their poo poo and acting like it's some sort of criminal offense for Campo Santo to DMCA a video from a guy they have no desire to be associated with is ridiculous.


"I've seen some poo poo, man. I watched her die right in front of me. I don't think I'll ever be the person was before. drat near ever night I see it happen again and again in my loving dreams. Most of the time I wake up in a cold sweat, screaming her name.

Anyone saying that Campo Santo is doing anything illegal is an idiot. They're exercising a right currently given to them under law and that they haven't chosen to exercise that right up to now isn't some kind of legally binding agreement to never exercise that right.

That said, this is a pretty obvious example of someone doing something good through a mechanism that is typically used for all kinds of egregious bullshit. So I think a lot of people who hate the DMCA end up in a real uncomfortable position and some end up siding against Campo Santo because their hate of the DMCA outweighs the good it does in this one circumstance. Not saying I agree, just that's where folks are coming from.

An analogy for something more serious might be if a tip from an unconstitutional CIA domestic surveillance operation prevented a kidnapping because the person being surveiled happened to walk by the location where the kidnapping was occurring. Anyone with half a brain is glad the kidnapping didn't happen, but it doesn't ameliorate the underlying problem of unconstitutional surveillance.

quote:

In the recent issue of Action Comics #987, "The Oz Effect," released Wednesday, Superman arrives in the nick of time to protect a group of undocumented immigrants from a white man sporting an American flag bandanna, wielding a machine gun, who is going to shoot them for taking his job.

Superman blocks the bullets before they hit the terrified people.

"Stop this!" Superman orders the gunman.

"Why?!" he responds. "They ruined me! Stole from me!"

Grabbing the gunman by the collar and pulling him in close, Superman says, "The only person responsible for the blackness smothering your soul — is you!"
