Not exactly? It's supposed to tell a story in a different way, and that's it. If can be fun fan fiction type stuff, yes, but I just hope not all of them are like that. We need some darker, meaty stuff too, where the change the hero undergoes leads to a worst history.

My issue with the what if episodes so far...

To me, pulling the troops was not the mistake. I think that was the right choice. Everything else was a mistake because we didn't use the time since knowing we would leave to... 1) Pull out or setup pathways for extraction for our allies. 2) Provide asylum for allies that wish to leave the...

In a fun little twist today, the Paris TX ISD is going to get around Abbot's mask ban by adding masks to the dress code. Here in Texas, any school can set their own dress code or require things like uniforms, and so by adding the mask to the dress code kids will be required to wear them just...

Good catch. didn't notice them myself before. Oof. My point still stands though, either it's real, or someone took time out of his day to make a doctored photo of it to troll, and that almost feels worst.

I think a screw broke because this makes me laugh a lot for some reason. Just the reaction, the zoom in on the hat. Feels like real life is a terrible sitcom, and we will never be able to get rid of the worst actor no matter what we do or where we go. He will always be there.

Maybe it's because they keep hanging onto that 99% "survive rate"? Honestly, I keep telling people the two bigger issues is that, A) COVID can give you longer lasting issues, even if you survive, that could require therapy or just never go away at all, and B) All the people sick with COVID in...

People keep asking me how the Taliban is taking over so quickly considering how much gear and training we gave the Afghan army, and I have to remind them that it's because nearly no one is actually resisting them. Other then small pockets, most of the local governments and military have been...

The Texas Supreme Court attempted to screw us today by temporarily overturning the lawsuit that had negated Abbot's "No Mask Mandates" EO, basically making it so once again, local governments and ISDs could no longer carry out mask mandates, contact tracing, etc. Thankfully for my region, they...

Feel like the CDC really shit the bed with saying vaccinated people could stop masking. I mean, the heart was in the right place, but they should have realized that the minute they allowed any group to stop wearing masks then everyone was going to do it, anti-vax were going to just stop even on...

We got the e-mail today from my son's school that they won't be following Abbot's orders, and will carry out mask mandates and such. Was a big relief for my wife, who told me three nights ago that if our son gets sick (and god forbid, dies) from COVID because the school couldn't do any type of...

Feels like the term propaganda has lost all meaning these days. "I don't want teachers teaching critical race theory to my kids! It's propaganda!" "Well, what do you want them to be taught then?" "That America is the greatest nation on Earth, a beacon of freedom in a savage world, and that...

Feels like the amount of "person who downplays vaccine, says masks don't work, has died of COVID." is reaching a rather fevered pitch these days. I see at least two new articles about it a day. One, the dude even posted a video after being infected, going over some terrible symptoms but saying...

Trollhunters : Rise of the Titans Not gonna lie guys, kind of bummed out right now. I loved Trollhunters and 3BELOW. Wizards felt a bit rushed, and the pacing felt breathless at times, but it still built off the others well and left me wanting more of the series. Now that I got the chance to...

Had someone tell me it's not Kotick's fault since this was in Blizzard itself. Had to explain to them that half the issues in the lawsuit were about being brushed off or silenced by the HR department when it came to allegations. While Blizzard Ent would have their own on-site HR, most human...

The fact Kotick is likely going to walk away from this with not even a slap on the wrist is pretty shitty.

I know it won't happen, but we really need to get money out of politics. If all you got was a decent salary, then the people running would only be the people that want the job. Instead, you get the people that run only because they know once they get in, a lobbyist is going to slide them a ten...

Sinema feels like one of those people that only wanted to get in so she could get that sweet, sweet bribery contribution money and then accepts bonuses to fuck over actual bills. At least Manchin seems like he has values he wants to uphold (or at least just does not want to be kicked out of...

Oh hey, more damning evidence of past corruption that will lead to absolutely nothing. Trump called his acting AG back in December of last year telling them to call the election corrupt, so that he and some congressmen could attempt to pressure Pence to nullify the election.
