The idealist in me is hoping it's a "we are literally separating kids from their parents like Nazi Germany, so are no better than them" take.

at some point, somebody will release a consolidated Harry Potter book with Bible citation style and it will be approved by Rowling, because she actively encourages cosplay as politics

If you are over 18 and the Harry Potter series is your go-to source for literary analogies then you have not read enough books.

Also Dune is the better book for our current political climate IMO

I mean, I guess. That's better than nothing.

quote:

Can anything be salvaged from this mess? Perhaps a little if the British and European establishment can be persuaded to listen to the EU vote and adjust their policies in consequence. The British establishment needs to recognise that the Leave vote was as much a revolt against the British establishment as the EU establishment (a fact that is underlined by the rise of Corbynism). The British needs to give more power to the provinces and reduce the power of London in its economy and polity. It also needs to address the concerns of the left-behind as a matter of priority rather than luxuriating in the peccadilloes of the cosmopolitan elite. And it needs to temper the technocratic approach to politics with more concern for the quality of life. But the EU needs to change even more: it is easy to forget, given the passions that have been revealed by Brexit and the ministerial incompetence that has been revealed, that Brexit might never have happened (just as the recent Italian debacle need never have happened) if the European Union had taken a more statesmanlike approach to its business. The EU needs to rethink some of the more dogmatic commitments in its credo such as free movement of people. It needs to temper legalism with political wisdom.

I can live with this take, even if it's not as radical as I think it should be.

Hot take: I have never played a Metal Gear game and probably never will, just because I don't see myself going out and getting any of the consoles that they run on.

I did see the scene in MGR of the main villain yelling "Make America Great Again!" which was funny in a hosed up way.

Honestly they don't play that great (other than 3), I would just recommend watching the bugfuck crazy cutscene plot stuff on YouTube cause that's pure Kojima at its finest

And to be fair, MAGA was a Reagan campaign slogan way before Trump ever used it.

If you've seen somebody pack a bowl it's not hard to figure out. After weed is legalized they're going to package pre-packed disposable pipes until we're alienated from the whole weed preparation process in the same way we process food.

I mean I smoked weed for years just being passed bowls at parties or early college weed smash bros gatherings I could see how it would be confusing if you'd like never heard of a grinder

also pre-packed (i guess filled? idk how the juice works) disposable vapes are already a thing in weed legal country

It's okay to smoke weed, and it's okay to never smoke weed, but it's beyond pathetic to start smoking weed when you're well into adulthood. I'm looking at you, Kevin Smith.

Disposable vapes are fine, but you gotta cater to distinguishing tastes that prefer smoking "weed in the raw." I'm thinking of something like the disposable glass crack pipes they sell in gass stations, but with the bowl held in place by an airtight wrapper.

When my sibling had their wisdom teeth out they brought their bong to me and asked me to prime it for them since they didn't want to get dry socket. I was (am) an asocial wiener who doesn't do the devil weed because smoke fucks my sinuses. They didn't explain how to prime it.

I proceeded to blow into the bong full force and spray old bongwater all over my bedroom carpet. :downs:
