I don’t think there’s any chance of converting his base, though. Surely what she needed to do - and what it sounds like she did, I haven’t finished listening to the debate yet - is persuade everyone else to vote for her? His base alone isn’t enough to guarantee him a win if there’s a strong showing for Harris, as happened for Biden in 2020
OOP describes themselves as “pro-corporation”, thinks modern Russia is communist, and seems to spend an awful lot of time immersed in 4chan. Either they’re trolling or they’re about as bright as a cloudy night sky, and I don’t much care which it is
Mate what
Give me the good pain. I want my BDSM food
I think this pizza might actually be enough of a bioweapon to fend off the PLA
He must be close to resurrecting himself through sheer rage
I suppose there’s the Olympic team? Although that doesn’t include the republic of Ireland, and Northern Irish people can choose which one to compete for
I think part of the issue is that there’s far less parity between the countries in football compared to rugby. All four teams are always at or near the top level in rugby, whereas only England is typically good at football, so a Lions equivalent would basically just be the England team again
Busby should probably not be considered a reliable source
That’s not to defend Israel’s actions in Gaza. They still killed all those people and destroyed their homes, regardless of the weapon they used to do it

Busby has form for spreading conspiracy theories about nuclear stuff and trying to profit off of it
I honestly can’t think of a way to rephrase “we invented international football” to fit the “no skins” original, so this acknowledgement of the reference will have to do instead
The UK doesn’t compete in international football, the constituent countries of it do. Although of them, only England is even occasionally able to challenge Germany
Exercise Formosa
Well this certainly wasn’t the “Chinese troops in Taiwan” headline that I worried I might read. Apparently there’s a Formosa in Brazil and it’s not just the old name for Taiwan
You can take part in something without taking part in the community about that thing, though. I play guitar a lot, but I don’t frequent any guitar-based communities
I suppose if you hear your class talking about something a lot, it probably makes some sense to at least briefly look into it. Especially if the general gist of it can be understood by watching one thirty second youtube video
Each to their own! I really enjoyed V and have hundreds of hours in it, but I appreciated the changes in VI and felt like it vbecame a stronger game than V overall. I do have more hours in VI. I get that the art style was a little controversial, but I was never playing V for the visuals anyway
Districts were a thing in Civ 6, before Humankind came out
Oh, I’m not disagreeing with you by any means. I just thought it was kinda funny that they had the direction of the invasiveness of that particular animal backwards
For Civ 6, I’d say winning each victory once. Try to do it with different civs each time too. You can set your goal as winning a game on the highest difficulty if you want, but personally I don’t find that to be as interesting as the shift in gameplay necessary to win the different victories without just militarily crushing everyone else.
Also the simple possibility that it’s us that explores our way out to them, rather than the other way around
