The whole cast of Team Fortress 2.

I haven’t played that game in over a decade, yet if I read any of the lines from the game, I’ll still hear their voices loud as day. Even just seeing the word “medic” and I hear Demoman screaming it.

I always use a simple diagonal gradient with the three colours of the bisexual flag. I am bisexual, but it’s mostly because I like the colours. Whenever I get a new device, I generate an appropriately-sized gradient for its screen using GIMP.

The one exception is the background of my Steam Deck in desktop mode, which is the following because I thought it was funny:

Most of the various guilds and unions in the entertainment industry have rules regarding proper crediting.

I searched for his comments on the NYPD, all I could find was an “apology” that reads more as “potential new mayor, after years of criticism of the NYPD, realises that an openly antagonistic NYPD wouldn’t help his agenda for New York and says the bare minimum to placate them”. Keep in mind too, this is under a presidency that would gladly assist the NYPD in disturbing whatever Mamdani does when elected. He also mentions victims of police brutality in the quote. Hardly “very PRO-NYPD”, IMO.

In regards to the genocide in Gaza, he seems to be extremely pro-Palestine. He did recently visit some Zionist leaders in NYC. Jews are around 12% of the population of NYC, and whilst they certainly aren’t all Zionists, at lot of them undoubtedly are. Personally, I believe a good representative should represent every part of their constituency. You can’t realistically completely ignore these groups while running for a position like the mayor of NYC. Meanwhile, he has constantly throughout his life criticised Israel and expressed staunch support for the Palestinian cause.

Feel free to disagree with me on any of these points, but even then, don’t you think you might be letting perfect be the enemy of good in this case? Do you have another candidate you’d prefer?

With a duplication glitch, wouldn’t both technically be the same chick?

Care to share any specifics? I haven’t been following him too closely, like many others I’m a bit burnt out on US political news.

A brutal atrocity committed by a police department and your reaction is to “Well, AKTSHUALLY”, where’s your goddamn sense of empathy man?

Calling the bombing of a neighbourhood simply “inappropriate” is fucked and I fear for your humanity. “Inappropriate” is when I fart at the dinner table, not when one uses bombs on other humans.

I’d bring the album 10,000 gecs by 100 gecs and show it to The Beatles. In 1965, they’d have been at peak boy-band coming hot of the release of Help! and just about to drop Rubber Soul and a few months away from dropping (IMO their greatest album) Revolver.

Imagine if instead of George Harrison getting really into Indian music, he discovered hyperpop. The Beatles are such an influencal band that it would have ripples throughout the music industry. Imagine what 100 gecs would be getting up to in an alternate universe where Revolution 9 might get replaced with something like One Million Dollars?

Cyclist seeing bike traffic: “You love to see it!”

Motorist seeing car traffic: “I will murder anyone in my path to save 5 seconds”

Get a distro running XFCE, slap the Chicago95 theme on it, and try to convince your friends that their computer updated to the latest version of Windows.

“Indigenous people fought each other and did bad things, therefore committing a genocide is OK.”

What a lovely & compelling argument.

Also, sorry for assuming you’d be able to recognize that “Canadian” included the history of British and French colonists in what became Canada.

This argument probably sounds really good if you completely disregard the past 300 or so years of Canadian-Indigenous relations.

There’s a difference between making money and hoarding wealth.

Really hot take here: Super Mario Bros (you didn’t mention it in your list).

For a game from the '80s on the limited hardware available at the time, they really put a lot of work into the mechanics of the platforming. It’s an incredibly responsive game compared to its contemporaries.

It’s beyond fucked that some people ignored a guy having a heart attack pleading for them to call 911.

In what way it obvious? I’ve seen so many people make similar “jokes” just to spread their hateful rhetoric.

If you want to make a joke like this, you should really use a sarcasm tag or similar indicators that they’re not your truly-held beliefs. Unfortunately modern conservatives have kicked Poe’s Law into overdrive, and if one leaves a comment like this one wihout a clear indication of sarcasm, people really have no choice but to assume they’re a bigot.

We can’t ask them, but if we could, I bet you the animals would have a few objections.

Not condoning the death threats, but live-streaming the butt-fucking of his mom is a bit much.

When articles mention “The Economy” it just means rich people’s money.
