It’s not unusually specific here, per se. It’s just a list with descriptions of several Americans who were elected into government. I couldn’t name novel or movie characters that precisely fit these traits off the top of my head.

Yup

I figured this was just kind of a blurb by someone who just lacks depth in knowledge of these things

V for Vendetta seems close though

Compared to the original Tall Tales and the Monkey Island ones, I think the PotC ones were the worst. They added those underwater shrines, ocean crawlers and sirens which are all a massive pain in the bottom.

I played the original Monkey Island and I gotta say I loved the Sea of Thieves adaptation. My wife and I completed all achievements of all Tall Tales a while back, started to feel like a chore but the Monkey Island ones were a breeze. Loved it.

Also loved the Pirates of the Caribbean ones though.

It was pretty much Obi-Wan until I saw Rogue One, Cassian Andor is just a great character, maybe because of the way Diego Luna portrays him. The way he analyses his environment and the way convoluted schemes around him play out is some of the best the franchise has to offer.

I’m kinda curious about the outlook calendar event as well

They’re discouraged by Canada. Subreddits for European countries are filled with Americans inquiring about their chances though. I’ve heard of several wanting to know more about the Netherlands.

How is it that you can spell ‘pathological’ but not ‘gossip’

Captain, it’s Wednesday

I’m not saying I understand the magnitude, but ICYMI: the populist right is also winning left and right in Europe. In my country, it’s mostly just kind of funny since these blowhards are only now realising governing a country is kind of difficult and lots of government employees are just fighting against everything that’s idiotic or destructive.

Thing is, one man can only do so much. If there are still people on the inside who have a feel for wrong and right, democracy is pretty rigid. People are desperate, but nowhere near as desperate as Germans were in the 30s after the huge sanctions and fines after The Great War.

In any event: my take on it all is to see what happens. If you voted, you did all you can do other than organising and taking to the streets. That’s essentially what your second amendment is for. To put a positive spin on it: maybe he will actually improve your admittedly declining country. I just hope the means won’t be catastrophic for anyone.

I’d love to see that. And then see Lando just come up short by 2 points or something, or get a bullshit penalty. Oscar’s win at Hungary will be the decider for this WDC and that will be definite proof that some of this stuff is scripted.

I’m fairly certain there’s a Futurama episode on this topic

What was it again? Grandfather B?

My A52s has a built-in function to not let it charge above 80. I keep it on unless I need the extra 20% for instance when I’m away for a while.

We have one that does the hip thing, another that sleeps near the feet end. The first cat I had was also a feet sleeper but would sometimes snuggle like the small spoon. If I were to move at all, it was off to the couch and staring at me.

If you haven’t tried them, give Ori a go. I finished Ori and the Blind Forest, it was amazing. Then I went on to Ori and the Will of the Wisps which builds on the first one. So in the first one you’ll be unlocking stuff and in the second one you can still do all those things and some extra stuff you’ll have to select according to the situation.

Beware though, some of the things they expect you to do can be challenging.

Play on PC if your monitor supports HDR, otherwise Switch’ll do fine.

Still need PayPal for some transactions that require a credit card. In the Netherlands, credit cards aren’t as commonplace as in the USA since we only pay with money we actually have.

I’m not saying I discredit your argument, I’m just angry at companies requiring either a credit card or PayPal (or even worse, those buy now pay later deals).
