Is this an episode of Black Mirror or real fucking life.

PKD explored a similar concept in Ubik if I recall. The “half-life” of dead relatives that explained the real afterlife was a Buddhist purgatory or some shit.

Freedom is Slavery

I am a little shocked Decision Desk is calling this one with less than 25% reporting in, but I’m not a data guy. Has Spanberger already captured enough of the key counties that the vote share can’t be made up?

Jones should drop out. What he said was really inexcusable.

They look amazing. Unfortunately, will not be buying candles until after government shutdown season is over. :(

Enjoying the usual scents of autumn in the meantime and hoping for the best.

That is amazing. Fantastic news!

I love my collection of challenge coins, they chart an entire career of memories for me. My most ridiculous one is from Trump’s summit with Kim, which is every bit as dictator-y as anyone could imagine, Dear Leader x2. This tops that one by a wide margin in absurdity points however.

Shit man you’re really having a night with these folks

This game had an arcade version of it too, didn’t it? I swear I played it at Dave and Buster’s twenty years ago.

Oh wow. Old school Battle Cry was one of my favorites way back in high school, this looks rad.

Ran a 6-year campaign of The One Ring. The singular RPG among the multitude I love where I owned every supplement. An amazing collection. To say nothing about Tales from the Loop, Symbaroum, BLADE RUNNER ffs… just a great company.

I’ve never understood the social media phenomenon where anonymous negative engagement is the preferred option. If I think someone’s a dick, I just don’t want to talk to them. So many people feel the need to scream into the ether.

Hell yeah. Still bummed about the NCR though.

Our boys have been watching this movie five or six times per week. It’s worth a look, it’s got some character.

It provides DOD three things:

1. As a pet project of Trump, his imagination is captured and it is a stable project to attract resources and attention.

2. Gives the admin a fig leaf for defending US natsec while disengaging from FP broadly.

3. Acts as a slush fund for Trump friendly contractors.

In high school we worshipped the early comics, even made a copycat comic about our friends. Huge influence. Watching Gabe mature as a cartoonist over the years through several styles has been really awesome.

So Tom, what does Lily think about this whole gerrymandering redirecting arms race?

Do it. Don’t wait until they’ve completely made it impossible to win nationally. These guys are not playing by the same rules.
