(before the local archbishop closed the place down*) The queue's at my old local traditional latin church were long, they were round the block and done all day. My local liberal one is by appointment only.

The trads do generally treat the sacraments with far more respect and won't dare take Holy Communion in a state of mortal sin, with massive queues before mass. Rightly so.

"what do they do for us"... the obvious retort, and then getting bogged in a convo about something like how the money being given to isreal having to be spent on US companies' armaments somehow makes it anything other than only marginally better, when it's still terrible and they're still getting free stuff in effect. Might get stuck into a discussion about the USS liberty or Lavon affair too if someone is feeling spicy.

It's just so tiresome. Imp was far less predictable than this, it was creative, enjoyable to see how he'd twist it to be about women.

This is just low effort bait. We deserve better than this. Give us the imp.

I used to think he was a slider/demoralization shill

Ah interesting, I see the tactic you mean and why you'd think that.

I don't see that in imp, because he'd just make 100 other rant posts in his own little sub communities too, whether or not someone listened. Just seemed obsessed to me.

But that is a very interesting tactic to be on the look out for.

Kneeling for BLM, firing all the unvaxxed, and then gleefully trampling the anti lockdown protestors shifted people's minds completely. It's clear they are on the side of the globohomo regime and the ones who are left are doing it willingly. It is an institution that has purged itself of all those who aren't bastards. 7 of them will drag your kid screaming from the house for, legally, in her own home, and without malice, commenting that a cop who looks like their lesbian nana looks like their lesbian nana.

Not one of those idiots was able to tell that lunatic to stfu, or bother to check the rules, or refuse to enforce a nonsense law when they've got better things to do. There were several offramps presented to them, and they didn't opt for any of them. Only a bunch of bastards and fuckwits would let it get to that point.

but then they'd no longer be wolves, don't you see? By seeking to tame and keep the thing you love, you'd lose it.

Mass effect has an example of a QTE-like system, the interrupt, done right. Particuarly that moment on a renegade runin ME3 where you have the option to shoot and betray your friend or not. A shining moment (of two) in an otherwise quite poor story and game (it wasn't just the ending that sucked, fight me). That trigger/renegade symbol appearing is almost QTE-like, but it's more 'press x to make a big impact on the story, betray a friend or finish the mission' rather than 'press x to nod along like you'd be doing anyway'

So I'm not opposed to it in theory, some of my fave moments are from that series and are QTE-like.

But I completely get what you mean, there's too many of them, they are too inconsequential, and they are generally lazy.

I'm more conflicted

I think T should be far more readily available, because all the flouride, soy, and xenoeostrogens are destroying it (so is fat and society) to levels far below what is standard or even ideal.

And the plastic surgery on people who would ruin themselves anyway in some way allows for far more practise and training helping the cohort who legitimately need it to return to normal after say, breast cancer.

Also BITCHIN

Now there is a word we should bring back. Rad is seen as too lame, but 'bitchin'' will annoy all the right people, then try to be reclaimed.

It could do real numbers.

I'm with the yanks and their tanks on this, infrastructure should expand, they blame these things on the congestion charges, but that's just their excuse to curtail your freedoms. Your freedom to have space, your freedom to have a car that goes beyond a '15 min' boundary.

If I want a tank I should be able to have a fucking tank. Your trains never fucking work and are always on strike, can't rely on that, so your roads should be far better. Far bigger.

And don't get me started on the welsh...

I'm still confused about Leftists lauding therapy as such a great and wonderful thing,

Jung and Freud are gnostic mystics, in the same way that Marxism is a religion dressed up in economic and political science, psychology has always been a religion dressed up in the science of brain chemistry and health.

Of course they laud it, it has become one of their sacraments.

The dark inversion of confession specifically.

Which is where the insult comes from. In the same way that people might use 'You need to go to confession'

I can think confession is a great and amazing blessing, while also admonishing you and suggesting you need to go do something about something you just did or said in a somewhat snide way, there's no real contradiction there but for me being a bit flippant about something so sacred.

They have many hypocrisies and contradictions, this doesn't seem like one of the stronger ones to me.

I remember when channel 10 was the cool one, In the mornings it was the one all the kids watched, what with it having cheese tv, and so it was where you caught your pokemon, yugioh, dragonball z and sailor moon. Then after school it was the one with neighbours, the simpsons, seinfeld, and big brother. Rove and the sketch show.

Non aussies need to understand, 10 was the cool one, it had all kids captive across multiple genres, cartoons, soaps and comedy, the most valuable of marketing audiences.

Speaking of Rove though, I think its that whole clique and fremantle media that has really turned the channel to shit. Of course it's fremantle

I expect it’s only a matter of time before an ABC/SBS merger,

Back in my day they were each 1 channel, now they each have like 4 and 17 different digital radio channels. I don't think they'll merge, they are gov supported they'lljust suck more funds, if they do merge it'll only be a plot so they can complain about only having '1' and get more funding and start another.

Though it is kind of funny how many “prominent” ABC journos still end up at 10,

10 and the ABC have always been weirdly incestuous, all those project/rove people all getting their start and also doing shows for the abc. Perth's greatest achievement, fuck off channel 10 and fuck off 'the project'

No one has ever tried to diversify an already failing company - because there’s no money or influence in it.

I disagree, there's a whole trend you can see particularly in publishing, circles where the left bias is already very high.

The company is going broke, and the editors and millennial lefty staff push for it, as a last ditch effort to turn things round they'll claim. The upper management might believe their lies BUT it's also a push from the editors themselves to secure clout and secure their next job. It's not just go woke go broke, it's a vicious cycle of go broke go woke. By doing that they become heroes in their little bubble, they get social clout, and they get an excuse either way. They did their best but it still wasn't enough, or it was the trends...

Comics, book publishers, journalism, there's a go broke->go woke cycle as well. Precisely because there is influence in it.

The US rules us, has done at least since the 70s, all their bases are here, control of our PM (they'll oust them if they don't comply).

We've been sold to the chinese.
