they are they government

They aren't the senate.

No, it's the PERFECT symbol, because the Jedi Order are ALSO violent self-righteous moralizing pricks who want to overthrow the government.

what would Link think

I dunno, what WOULD a soulless autistic sperg who compulsively smashes every pot he sees and runs around yelling "Ya" as he mows a field with a dagger think?

Dude, archive much?

The bunch I know were dicks about it.

Okay, so there was an incident I recall maybe 25 years ago where one omlet drove his metal spiked tractor down a freshly paved asphalt highway, doing roughly a million dollars in damages.

Now he went to jail for that, but then did it again when they fixed the road.

As far as I'm aware there is STILL an order up to this day that if the county sheriffs dept see him on a county road in his lifetime the supervisors want him arrested on sight as a public nusiance.

Eh.....

It depends on the order.

I know this much:

If you're on a DOT regulated road, there is no religious exemption for metal spike tractor wheels (you can't use them) and orange triangles on buggies (you have to have one).

Sweden was in many ways the first Western country to noisily declare war on a growing segment of its own population.

I dunno... St Bartholowmew's Day was pretty noisy according to Francis Walsingham.

Bacon being ten bux is a problem. Printing money faster than we print newspapers is problem. The tories not being able to dislodge Justin Trudeau is a problem.

There are lots of problems.

People have beaten the "it's the joooos" harp so hard and so long it's more like a stringed accordion. If the romans couldn't deal with them, and the mongols couldn't deal with them, and the crusaders couldn't deal with them, and the inquisition and the calvinists couldn't deal with them, and the communists and nazis couldn't deal with them...

It might be time to step back and say "Okay, maybe we're going at this all wrong."

Now, my advice, for anyone who wants to dismantle judaism, is this:

Do to it what the protestants did to Catholicism. Create a branch of judaism that explicitly greenlights eating bacon and shrugs about circumcision.

And watch the almighty unstoppable force of schism and relativism and cargo-cult feelz-believers rip the faith apart as surely as Luther killed christianity.

Nothing destroys religion more effectively than making it cheap and mutable.

You do, since it backfired and you lost.

Let's explore the logic here:

"Let's destroy communism."

"But we're not strong enough to fight the communists right now."

"Well let's make a pact with the communists until we're strong enough."

"Brilliant."

......

"The french and british declared war on us. And the Americans are funding them."

"WHAT!? DON'T THEY KNOW WE HATE THE COMMUNISTS?!"

"But we made a pact with them."

"BUT WE DIDN'T MEAN IT!"

"Do they know that?"

And as a result you got your shit kicked in.

I was

Uh, no.

And if that's what you thought, you thought wrong, because the Brits took Molotov-Ribbentrop at face value.

Any plan that depends on your peers being able to read your mind is a shit plan.

If it was that important to you, you should have been forthright with Churchill about your real intentions in attacking Poland.

blocking paved avenues that people use to get places

They're on the east Pentacrest. Nobody actually goes there for anything meaningful; Macbride is a museum and Schaeffer is LAS administration.

The only thing people do on the Pentacrest is sit around looking at smartphones pretending they aren't just completely dead inside.

I can't prove that you have, but I believe you're narcissistic enough that you would.

Yes that was the joke.

Look at all the fake accounts of me there's been.

Yes, I believe chez_blunts and ShabbosSean have that same problem.

Every single one of these brainlets will be across the street lined up at the Cookies & More in an hour without masks on talking about how awesome they are and how terrible Kim Reynolds is.

Yes, I DID grow up going to Old Capitol Mall.

Civilization peaked on June 6, 1944.

It's been all downhill since then.

"Hey Chinese nationals in America. Pay your party dues by buying this lootbox code + sweater. Or we'll beat your family."

Because they're a front for the Chinese Communist Party to expatriate money?

They're owned by fucking Tencent.

I genuinely can't understand why someone would buy this.

In the bad old days, everyone rolled achura because they had the lowest possible charisma score of 3.

Dust is dead, Valkyrie is dead. The graphics card thing was "walking in stations", which they were going to adapt to make the World of Darkness MMO, but that too is dead and White Wolf has been sold back off.

EVE right now is worse and better than ever.

The game meta is essentially bifurcated. At the small group level, the game has never been better. Between abyssal deadspace, pochven, and various changes to lowsec and wormholes, if you can get a few doods together to do a thing, you'll have a great time.

But nullwar is in a bad spot. Beeitnam illustrated the problems, that once again it's a defender's game and that the N+1 problem is still very much alive.

But to answer your specific question about why I'm not harder on CCP...

It's because frankly this game and company have gone so far out there in terms of offending its own playerbase that normal reasoning no longer applies. Nobody plays EVE because they like EVE, they play EVE because they hate themselves. It's a game for people who already have their own shit in order so much that they look around for more self-flagelatory activities to pile onto their daily routine.

It's mere existence is a tacit admission that business in western democracies is over-regulated, for otherwise these people would be out there 1099'ing real bux instead of space bux.

Why shouldn't designer digital jeans cost as much as real ones?

They're learning tho. If they ever need more dough all they need to do is release Hazard Control skins for Caldari and Goons will splurge another hundred million.
