@sobsags @Zaphoid @seamus_coughlin For example my comment made this one feel bad. This comment made it feel good. That's why it felt like it was okay to say this.

@PartialProbosc @Zaphoid @seamus_coughlin No wonder your filthy mother hates you you fucking lying bitch.

"Yes we murdered Charlie Kirk and celebrated but you guys made fun of Obama so it's impossible to say who is worse"

@Zaphoid @seamus_coughlin People need to understand this is unironically what drives them.

@seamus_coughlin That mockery made them feel bad. Charlie being murdered made them feel good. It's obvious that making them feel bad is worse.

@BracaloniD2625 @StutteringCraig lol

@PartialProbosc @StutteringCraig You're posting a graph that outright says that the participants are fringe voters on both sides and most people still unequivocally agree?

This should not be a controversial statement.

@BracaloniD2625 @StutteringCraig He's willfully informed, I'm afraid.

@StutteringCraig Yeah, 99% of the population would agree. Let's not be willfully ignorant

@KirkWilcox @ColemanMulkerin Is it too much to ask that when I die it be because a bureaucrat didn't want to spend the money and not because corporate greed didn't want to spend the money?

@ColemanMulkerin Single payer healthcare system denies care to patient: Responsible, you gotta ration to make sure everyone gets some level of care they need Health insurance company denies coverage to a patient: Evil, they did it for the sake of making their shareholders richer. Greed is bad

People don't think that America's Health Insurance industry is bad as in a bad customer experience but many do buy the moral commendation of Health Insurers. So when people hear threats that come from Hasan they are likely to think "Well, who am I to judge other's feelings"

@Sabamika1 @GundamIsHere Mental illness is one hell of a drug.

@Sabamika1 @GundamIsHere Avellone never brought that up in the interview. He was referring to the review scores for the DLC as a justification to not work with them again.

Bethesda really hated New Vegas.

@di_null @GundamIsHere Avellone didn't specify what was in the powerpoint, but I got the impression while listening to the interview that it was technical. It was probably more about how they used the engine incorrectly.

@GundamIsHere I would love to watch this PowerPoint. Would be cool to see it in the form “what was done” - “what should be done instead” with some references to other Fallouts.

@CygnusSlaughter @GundamIsHere That's not what Chris Avellone was talking about in the interview. He said they used the review scores of the DLC to justify not working with them again. He then added "not that they wanted too" which is where he brings up the powerpoint. He doesn't mention the bonus at all.

No, Bethesda weren't obligated to pay Obsidian their performance bonuses. To get their bonuses, the game had to get a metacritic score of at least 85, and they got an 84. Bethesda weren't obligated to pay them, per the agreement, but they were 1 point off, the game was a massive commercial success, one of their best performing games ever at the time. They could have just paid the hard working developers who made a really good game that made Bethesda hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue, but chose not to because they didn't have to. It was allegedly something like $1 million for a team of 70 people, $ 14k each, for a game that sold 5 million copies in days. bad look.

@jackrueger49 @WillyDiBa7 @FallRiverReport What could pancakes do at that point other than be contained?

@WillyDiBa7 @FallRiverReport Because he's trying to contain the situation not escalate it. Job well done.

A Massachusetts Police Department has charged 17 people from across New England following a comprehensive investigation into a coordinated street takeover that endangered motorists and responding officers in October 2025. The incident occurred early Sunday, October 5th, 2025, when large crowds gathered at the intersection of North Main and Oak streets in Randolph. Vehicles performed drifting maneuvers and donuts in the roadway while participants blocked intersections to allow the stunts. Spectators surrounded the area, many recording videos for social media. When the first officer arrived, his cruiser was quickly surrounded by the crowd, preventing him from entering the intersection. Individuals swarmed the vehicle, striking it and blocking its path. Fireworks were ignited both on top of the cruiser and nearby in the street. Officers estimated nearly 100 people were in the roadway at the intersection.

@IamSean90 The comment he's responding to is so tame lol

The number one defense of Cenk's Nephew is "out of context" & yet it is never followed by any additional context being provided. Kyle did a whole stream sucking him off not long ago, & he just agreed with every statement & added no exonerating context

@eyweimi @3limbjim @quincylsb @trad_west_ @reddit_lies So we've gone from the Church actively suppressed literacy and knowledge to it didn't actively spread literacy and knowledge.

@3limbjim @quincylsb @trad_west_ @reddit_lies There was a church on every corner; they could have taught the children to read, but they didn't think people should be allowed to read and to know that all you have to do is look at the reformation lead-up and how many died for it.

Atheism still hasn't recovered from this btw

@borg_univ_riker @saberjet @quincylsb @trad_west_ @reddit_lies The Church gave Galileo permission to publish 'Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems', but after publication they felt that Galileo was mocking the Pope with the character Simplicio, whom he uses in the book to represent geocentrism.

@saberjet @quincylsb @trad_west_ @reddit_lies

@quincylsb @trad_west_ @reddit_lies You haven't seen much historical revisionism then.

Im not an atheist, but this is probably the best example of revisionist history I've ever seen. The church ACTIVELY suppressed literacy and knowledge. I live for the day when people can just tell the truth instead of attempting to lie and manipulating reality to support their narratives and ideology.

@ZubyMusic @markfrancisio The solution would be to limit coverage to smokers, not outlaw smoking.

@markfrancisio Yeah. Socialised healthcare does complicate such things.

The UK is banning smoking. What do you think?

@StutteringCraig When does the N64 show up so we can witness 4 MEGABYTES of ram!

This is a great reminder that tomorrow we begin our Greatest Video Game Franchise Ever tournament.

@IamSean90 Small women are the most dangerous of all women.

He shoved a small woman from behind on video & calls it defensive

@SolitonSailor @fnthawar @ZubyMusic He meant what sounded good to the sorts of people he was criticizing when he wrote this.

@fnthawar @ZubyMusic I’m struggling to work out what “sounded good”. Respect Thomas Sowell a lot but this seems a bit off-piste for him.

Much of the social history of the Western world over the past three decades has involved replacing what worked with what sounded good —Thomas Sowell

@HadleySheley @MorePerfectUS The government already spends $100 billion a year on SNAP benefits. It's okay to tell the truth and admit the point of taxing the rich is to take their money away because you don't like that they are rich. This has nothing to do with wanting to help people.

@MorePerfectUS “The Rich already paid their fair share.”… Let those poors eat cake…

Unbelievable stuff from the Washington Post on behalf of Jeff Bezos today.

@paragon275 @HadleySheley @MorePerfectUS And they really want to cut your head off.

@HadleySheley @MorePerfectUS The left thinks they’re fighting the French Revolution when it’s just that they can’t do simple math
