Electing Trump the first time was the equivalent of Brexit.
Electing him twice is the equivalent of setting your own home on fire, walking back inside while the house is still burning and taking a nap, hoping that the flames will only destroy your neighbour’s house.
Watergate was such a big scandal that Nixon gave up before the impeachment procedure had even began, and it left such a big mark that we still talk about it so many decades later.
Trump was involved in many, many more scandals of far greater magnitude, and yet he won the majority of votes.
What the fuck happened during the last 50 years?
There’s no excuse this time around. People know exactly who Trump is, and they have voted for him a second time.
I don’t have much to say. I feel a mix of anger and disappointment.
Hopefully the Dems will be able to pick someone better to lead the party four years from now… I wonder what the world will look like four years from now.
To be fair, I was talking specifically about the Republican period (1946 and later). As much as I despise our current government, Meloni is not Mussolini yet. We’re slowly getting there, though, and I’ve never seen so many fascism sympathizers in the open (including in the government).
Our scholastic system has failed us.
Yeah, I’m Italian and I guarantee that we would not (unfortunately) vote for Harris. We have just elected our farthest-to-the-right government ever, and far right politicians have been popular here for a few decades, now.
I really wish this graph was true, though. I need at least one reason to be proud of my country.
I’m pretty sure they were doing that already.
Just give me a proper Xenogears remake with all the cut content from the second disc and I’ll die happy.
No spoilers, Vee!
Thank you for putting so much effort into these posts. I rarely comment but I always read them. It feels like reading an informal short review of a random game every day, like having a friend telling me what they played the day before. Sometimes I even add the game to my wishlist.
I have a very bad cold right now. Sorry, respiratory system, I won’t take you for granted ever again.
When you have a DEX build but equip a STR weapon
Where can I get lizardmen friends?
I’m still waiting for the DLC :(
Taking the “be gay, do crime” slogan a bit too literally here
It’s so easy to use! As long as you are willing to put a bit of effort, it offers an almost limitless amount of customizability.
Good thing that I postponed my DnD session to next week!
Beautiful! I wish I’ll be able to visit Canada one day :)
Amity, do you want to talk about your anger issues?
Please do! I could certainly use it as a source of inspiration.
Whops, I forgot to hit send on this one, so I’m writing this comment a tad bit late.
In DnD, helping others is limited to the Help action, which nobody takes because it’s such a waste of an action. I wanted something to spice things up, something that made players feel like they were a tight group helping each other out instead of a band of mercenaries covering different grounds.
To do so, I looked at XCrawl’s Mojo system, which this variant Inspiration is heavily based on. As with the original, it’s designed as an incentive for bonding and roleplay, hence why you can only spend Inspiration on other players’rolls.
To simplify things, I did away with earning additional Mojo/Inspiration points and losing Mojo/Inspiration on a nat1: instead, the players have a single Inspiration point every day, that they can spend to help other players in a clutch.
The “no beggars” limitation is also lifted wholesale from XCrawl. I really like it because it awards players for staying alert during their fellow party members’s turn.
