LeeMajors posted:Yeah, but the stepwise proliferation of the alt-right. Now that makes more sense. Lowtax clamps down on ADTRW, Moot starts 4chan, 4chan starts a /pol/ board, /pol/ board starts the alt-right, alt-right starts a riot on January 6, January 6 shows the world America is capable of the kind of political chaos usually only seen in countries America intervenes in. So count actual geopolitics as something else Rich "Lowtax" Kyanka screwed up

I always felt like when Lowtax managed SA if there was a choice to be made, he'd choose the one that would create the most drama. So perhaps it's not surprising that he ended it this way.General Dog posted:I thought he blew through the cranial estate lol

as long as we're talking about far right poo poo poster GOP politicians, Madison Cawthron is fleeing NC 11 to primary another GOP politician in NC 13. I do not understand the motivation here. FizFashizzle fucked around with this message at 16:46 on Nov 11, 2021 |

Intruder posted:Did redistricting gently caress him or something? Not really. I went to a meet and greet for a potential dem challenger the other night and her campaign manager mentioned that they expect the district to be about R+4 this year, which is very optimistic I feel. Especially in a midterm year when there will be a huge push against Biden. You think he'd walk to victory. The guy he's challenging is not overtly trumpy, and there was some whispers at one point that Lara Trump might run in that spot but she must not have polled well because that's not happening. I think they're gambling on Madison winning that, being more loyal to trump in the house, and some other warm body winning in WNC. There's rumors that the GOP is going to appoint trump house majority leader if they take it.

Pron on VHS posted:I just found out Amazon is doing a Wheel of Time tv show, that’s interesting. Wish they had chosen The First Law series instead I’d love to see it but I honestly cannot envision the First Law universe without Steven Pacey, his narration and performances on the audiobooks are so goddamn amazing it’d be tough to adapt to another interpretation of, well, lots of characters, but let’s specify Sand dan Glokta for kicks. As an aside, I finished the Age of Madness trilogy a little while back and I’m still kinda reeling. Like, I’ve gone through his first trilogy probably 4 times now because I absolutely love it, and I’m not saying I was surprised by the latter trilogy, it was unquestionably pure distilled Abercrombie. But oh man, even for him that ending was bleak. Earned, well developed, perfectly in keeping for the world and his style, and I definitely enjoyed it overall, but it’s going to be a bit before I want to commit to going through the finale again.

Until movies start coming out again, it's a bad time to start this. It's actually a great time to start it up because getting a MoviePass going is a pain in the rear end. They can have a huge lead time, charge people, and then collapse before people seeing Thor 4 or whatever wipes out their coffers. That having been said, even if it's the same price as last time, I'm still playing with house money if I get another year with this.

Movie Pass owned for like the first few months that it existed. Every independent movie theater loved it because they'd charge full price for what was considered matinee showings or something. I loved going to independent movies with it. When it got to the point where it was checking your location and randomly removing high profile movies, then started sending you emails about how it partnered with companies to help pay off your student loans is when it got bad real fast!

Truthfully I didn’t love the Age of Madness trilogy as much, I like the magic/mythology stuff more than the industrialization of the world that happened, I sorta wish he would freeze the story in time and stop moving forward so quickly. Hope the next books aren’t set in the Information age with Bayaz buying Bitcoin to rebuild Valint and Bank or whatever

And yeah, the Audible versions are pretty fantastic, I go through a bunch of audiobooks in general and the First Law performance is honestly one of the best I’ve heard. Pacey captures the irony and humor perfectly, you’re as balanced between laughing and dread as you’d hope.

Much like this website's design, Lowtax couldn't grow past the early 00s. Which is fine for a website but not for a person. Spoeank posted:Also this trial is so off the rails lol Reminds me of my cousin's wedding this past summer where the father of the groom got up during the reception to give a toast...and led off by asking all current & former military and LEOs to stand and be recognized "for making today possible".
