It used to be that they’d put baseball games on broadcast TV.

Now you basically need a subscription to watch the team in my area. It’s like they don’t want anyone to see the games.

You have to spring for the french fry cuffs.

Same.

It really begins to get at the depravity of the man.

Oh that guy is a paranoid loser. I think it’s also an alt for (among many others) Universal Monk.

The implication was that they’re smarter than “the educated.”

Edit: Here’s the full quote:

We won with young. We won with old. We won with highly educated. We won with poorly educated. I love the poorly educated. We’re the smartest people, we’re the most loyal people, and you know what I’m happy about? Because I’ve been saying it for a long time. 46% were the Hispanics—46%, No. 1 one with Hispanics. I’m really happy about that.

It’s an old fascist saw that folk wisdom is better than book-learning.

From They Thought They Were Free- the Germans, 1933-45:

Because the mass movement of Nazism was nonintellectual in the beginning, when it was only practice, it had to be anti- intellectual before it could be theoretical. What Mussolini’s official philosopher, Giovanni Gentile, said of Fascism could have been better said of Nazi theory: “We think with our blood.” Expertness in thinking, exemplified by the professor, by the high-school teacher, and even by the grammar- school teacher in the village, had to deny the Nazi views of history, economics, literature, art, philosophy, politics, biology, and education itself.

Thus Nazism, as it proceeded from practice to theory, had to deny expertness in thinking and then (this second process was never completed), in order to fill the vacuum, had to establish expert thinking of its own— that is, to find men of inferior or irresponsible caliber whose views conformed dishonestly or, worse yet, honestly to the Party line. The nonpolitical pastor satisfied Nazi requirements by being nonpolitical. But the nonpolitical schoolmaster was, by the very virtue of being nonpolitical, a dangerous man from the first. He himself would not rebel, nor would he, if he could help it, teach rebellion; but he could not help being dangerous— not if he went on teaching what was true. In order to be a theory and not just a practice, National Socialism required the destruction of academic independence.

In the years of its rise the movement little by little brought the community’s attitude toward the teacher around from respect and envy to resentment, from trust and fear to suspicion. The development seems to have been inherent; it needed no planning and had none. As the Nazi emphasis on nonintellectual virtues (patriotism, loyalty, duty, purity, labor, simplicity, “blood,” “folk- ishness”) seeped through Germany, elevating the self-esteem of the “little man,” the academic profession was pushed from the very center to the very periphery of society.

People can be led by the nose if you confirm their bigotry and make them think they’re smart.

I was just making a joke. Lighten up.

Ok, but hear me out:

If you accelerate something into a freefall orbit, then it stands to reason that the projectile would deal falling damage (equal and opposite force, you know) which maxes out at 20 d6.

I’ve found that most people who hate feminism are sad divorcees who are pissed because they couldn’t financially trap their spouse into legalized rape.

Hating equal rights for women says a lot more about you than it does about women.

An automatic transmission also has many clutches inside to release or grab different parts of the planetary gear assembly.

But yes, not what people think of when they say “clutch.”

Thermal mask against FPV drones.

And a cool sword, that’d be sick.

I’d say the Coen brothers are the most consistently good filmmakers.

There’s absolute bangers like Fargo and True Grit. Even their lesser known ones like The Ladykillers and Hail Caesar are worth a watch.

There’s O Brother Where Art Thou, and Barton Fink, which are their most underrated in my opinion.

I don’t think they put out a single stinker, and most are A or A+.

There’s so many Star Trek episodes that you can steal extensively from there, too.

This is a much better version of the acronym. TERFs are not feminists, they’re reactionaries.

That’s a lot of spaghetti-o’s.

We played Quake World Team Fortress on the high school LAN. It blew my mind.

I hate the word, but I’ll make an exception when Ripley says “get away from her, you bitch” to the alien queen.

I generally prefer movies, books, or video games over a TV show. There are exceptions, but there’s just a lot of filler on TV shows; even good ones.

I’m pretty sure they’re a Donald J Musk alt.

They say the same kind of stupid shit anyway.

I didn’t know alemán was another way to say “German.” I play early music, and it’s also a type of song known as a “German dance,” so that makes a lot of sense.
