Only reason I could see bringing Toby back would be to kill him off and introduce live-action Miles. And then Surprise! It’s actually a secret crossover event for the Spiderverse, Friendly Neighborhood Spiderman, Venom, and any other loose ends they want to tie into a bow.
I finally got around to watching season 1, and now I’m feeling fairly hopeless about our political situation.
At this point, what can happen? Congress is under the same sticky thumb as Trump, and there aren’t enough voters who are engaged enough to even know about it. The firehose of bullshit did exactly what it was supposed to do, and now there’s no public will left to keep fighting for freedom and democracy.
UBI needs to be tied to an index related to the cost of living, which will result in compounding inflation (which can be a good thing, but that’s an economics argument not worth exploring). As a solution, it won’t fix anything by itself. We also need reforms like restrictions on corporate ownership of residential property, interest rate and banking restrictions, trading reform, and a progressive tax code that makes tax dodgers pay.
That’s a good analogy.
That’s a bummer. How about the Fightin’ Gaelea Baens? It’s a beetle, and it’s pronounced “Jelly Bean.”
Jesus would protest ICE.
There are a whole bunch of minor league team names that are fun. There are teams called the Jumbo Shrimp, the Iron Pigs, the Flying Squirrels, the River Bandits, and all of them have fun logos already available on baseball hats.
There is of course the question of copyrights, but there are three good reasons why you probably don’t need to worry about getting sued. First, it would be unbelievably bad press for any major or minor league or team to sue a bunch of tiny fans. Second, you’ll probably be buying a bunch of merchandise like hats and banners with their logos on it (assuming you aren’t printing your own using their logos). Third, they would probably get laughed out of court at the notion that a multi-million dollar franchise needs to differentiate itself from the sandlot kids in diapers. You’re not profiting from the name or logo (right?), and they have better things to do with their time than volunteer to be the villain in the court of public opinion.
Edit to add some more: Trash Pandas, Rumble Ponies, Sod Poodles, Yard Goats, Blue Wahoos, AquaSox, RubberDucks, PaddleHeads, Hot Rods, Cannon Ballers, and the Baby Cakes.
Hey, you know what? Sure, let’s just do away with the electoral college altogether and make it one big federal election.
I don’t care who is in the files. Investigate all of them. There’s no amount of “progressives” you can find in the files to make me think “Oh, well I guess it was both sides then.” Prosecute all of them. I don’t think everyone named in the files is a criminal, and sadly even fewer could be prosecuted based on the evidence, but humans, children, were trafficked and raped and murdered. Fucking do something before the mob mentality takes hold.
Combat always ages poorly, because anything happening in real time requires muscle memory. As developers develop new combat mechanisms, it is constantly getting incrementally better. It’s like trying to compare a modern performance car to a Model T, or an '89 honda accord. The 65 Shelby Cobra doesn’t have bluetooth or antilock brakes or passenger airbags, but there are many enthusiastic fans of the car today. The modern Shelby Mustang is essentially a remake with modern tech trying to capture the spirit of the original.
That’s what we want. We want Morrowind, but better. The classic is still the classic, so we don’t need that again. Modders can reskin the game with better graphics.
General strikes won’t work in the United States. The country is too heterogenous and fractured, and we’re devoid of actual leaders.
We really need a better term for DNC “leadership”.
That’s always the balance between time, quality, and cost. Fast and good js expensive, cheap and fast is crap, cheap and good requires time.
Polymarket apocalypse futures are soaring right now.
I can understand the appeal of a piece of bread that’s been soaked or buttered or even just toasted and salted. I bet that’s delicious, if done right.
My question is, why the other two slices of bread? What’s the thinking there? Why not have three slices of delicious middle bread? If the bread is good enough on its own, why not eat it alone?
It’s like if you made a drink of tepid water by adding ice cubes to a glass of warmed water and then letting them completely melt until room temperature. Who is this recipe for? “Oh, but maybe the ice cubes are flavored” OK then why freeze them before melting them? “Maybe the hot water is flavored with herbs that rele-” Bitch, that’s tea.
I’m so confused, I’m getting mad at imaginary arguments I’m having with hypothetical morons about analogous situations that only exist in my head.
Plumbing would still be a job without capitalism. Actually, come to think about it, plumbing is just about the least capitalist job there is. Most plumbers are small businesses owned by the laborers. Plumbing products are all mass produced, but the actual plumber is valued for their skills, not because they have the capital to corner a market. Plumbers in areas where corporate conglomerates are common are usually protected by unions, too.
If you want a job that wouldn’t exist without capitalism, the answer is farmer. Sure, farmers are the backbone of any society, but farmers work the land, and the land has a lot of conditions. But you can buy avocados in Michigan in January, because someone realized that they can make money shipping avocados from warmer climates year round. It’s terrible for the land, terrible for the environment, and terrible for local farmers who cannot compete in the race to the bottom, but the capitalist cares not for these things. Only profit nourishes the soul of the corporation.
Don’t forget to take your medication today.

Is she trying to appeal to the 8 year old voters?
