Thanks for the write-up! Am also ex-11B, and this really takes me back. A lot of things I don't miss about the army. Having a new officer come in and make some shitty changes, seemingly just to stroke their ego and put a bullet on their OER—that's definitely on the list.

That's too bad. No autosave you can load from before it started? I love KC:D; it's one of very few story-based games that I was motivated to play through more than once. I had a quick look, but I couldn't find any mods that let you pause that section and come back to it later.

I really enjoyed Theresa's DLC, but it can be an unwelcome change of pace if you're not ready for it. There's certainly no shortage of people that have had this issue, but it looks like the only fix is to power through it or load an earlier save. You do get a nice Skalitz shield from Theresa when you finish it, at least.

Oh, and you can forget about wearing any kind of wrap-around shades! Might as well put on a red hat. I feel your pain.

Yes, I'd put this right up there with Daisy May Cooper's apoplectic rage at Richard Herring failing to recognize her hippo!

Can you see that you're arguing against fictitious strawmen? You seem to be operating under the delusion that for all the dumb normies who have "bought into" the existing two-party system, politics is just a game that they play without understanding. You've reduced them all to NPC's who lack the capacity to reason; obviously their only motivation could be mindless conformity to their "team".

Is it your contention that it doesn't matter what party controls the branches of government, because they're both the same? While this is factually inaccurate, it would at least be in line with the actions you're advocating. Speaking of which, how exactly do you imagine a "protest" vote would deny the subsequently elected government legitimacy? What force and effect do you foresee that action producing? Because anyone with a working knowledge of our electoral system can tell you that the only discernable result will be the empowerment of the minority party, which in this case seeks a fascist overthrow of our democratic system.

What you're doing here is applying shallow, childish logic to a complex and nuanced problem, while pretending to have some high-minded motivations which—if they exist at all—clearly haven't been thought through.

If you're interested, The Flop House (long running bad movie podcast with three hosts and sometimes a guest; 2/3 hosts are former Daily Show writers [they are three cishet white guys, but not stupid or bigoted]) did an episode with Parker Bennett, one of the screenwriters of the '93 SMB movie. He's got some pretty great anecdotes about making it!

No....no. See, 1+1=2, so we can see that 2 is double the amount of 1. 2+2=4.

It can be—and usually is—both.

If the last person who talked to him was Stephen Miller, it probably is. To paraphrase George Burns, putting an idea into his head is like putting a basketball into a thimble.

What does libertarianism have to do with anything? The US health insurance industry is objectively evil. It exists solely to extract profits, while providing no service. It's just a middleman between you and health care providers. It's a poster child for regulatory capture and blatant corruption.

I'm not in the habit of defending @UnderpantsWeevil, but it's pretty clear that their point is that UBI cannot replace public infrastructure investment. You're not really arguing that it can and/or should, are you?

Damn ~~Uncle Scrooges~~ Uncles Scrooge ruining the economy with their improbably swimmable money bins! Where's Magica De Spell when you need her?
