This was the song that played when the Narn beat Lord Refa's ass to death after his role in the Narn genocide was uncovered, wasn't it?

Guess it's time for my annual rewatch of the whole series. Good stuff, but Valen help me when I get to the dreadfully dull "Byron's telepaths" plotline in Season 5.
 
Have we even heard a peep from North Korea this trump term? They’ve completely faded into the background.

Also they got pretty paranoid about Covid and closed their border with China, like actually built out fencing and actively guard it. North Koreans are not having a good time escaping lately.

I think that relationship has been better. Also North Korea is off par from China in that they straight up sent troops to Russia to fight in Ukraine, while all China has done has been to turn a blind eye to people going for mercenary contracts.

When is the last time the Norks even launched a missile over Japan? They’ve been leaving all the threatening to China, who have been sailing around threatening everyone with unannounced live fire naval drills.

The quietness lends towards me feeling like the main confrontation is happening now

Didn't that fat leader kid end up being replaced by his sister a couple years ago? I think the started getting quiet around then.

No, he was sick and people were speculating that he was dying, then the internet saw his sister and started grooning over her because she was a relatively young Asian woman. He’s fine and in fact just today he test fired a sniper rifle for a photo op

Maybe nintendo shouldn't have waited so long on the switch 2 if they didn't want tarrifs :^)

Could they have done a thing where they sold millions of them to NoA pre-tarrif, and then had NoA sell them post-tarrif without having to pay tarrifs?
What would happen if the American subsidary of a company had purchased in advanced two years of unmade stock before the tarrifs kicked in?
 
Go nuts on editing this soyboy sign holder.

I'm going to enjoy watching and abusing this sign very much.
All these retards out here crying about how every company is supposedly tanking because of these tariffs, as if that itself isn't a sign that we have become too dependent on other countries and need to get back some self suffiency.
Anyone who doesn't like a self sufficiency like these people protesting are remarkably lazy.

Supposedly they’re building their own UAVs and are trying to make a nuclear submarine.
They probably either don’t work or are fucking shit.
 
It's over for Cheeto Benito! Putin's cock holster is finished, especially after that 15 year old BROKE IT DOWN!
lol Mother Jones ... weren't they the people feverishly publishing "Here's how Hillary can still win!" cope articles well into January 2017?
 
Trip Report: I was at a Trump protest yesterday

I wandered in quite by accident, hadn't heard about it beforehand. It was a lot of Boomers giving one last gasp of reliving the glory days of the 1960s. Same energy as those photos of Civil War vets meeting in the 1930s. Very different from the number of Boomers at the George Floyd protests.

The balance of the crowd were Gen YZ hipsters. No Black Bloc in evidence.

I saw a Handmaid, some creative costumes made of cardboard. I will say there were a lot of varied signs, didn't seem to be a lot of USAID/Soros distributed preprinted ones, so it was fairly organic. Lots of dangerhairs, not a lot of troons. Only one Ukran flag but more Canadian and Mexican ones. Surprisingly US flags here and there and lulzy stuff about democracy because they suddenly love the US. Half the hate was against Elon. Vance got a little rep tho. Lots of anti-ICE pro illegal stuff.

Heard some chants, even a classic "No TRUMP! No Peace! No Racist Po-LICE!" which gave me nostalgic feels :feels: of watching riots live in 2020. At first I suspected the chant instigators were plants, but I did witness what appeared to be rando normies (judging from their conversations among themselves before and after) starting chants.

There were a lot of people there to be fair, but it was, like all large cities, in a highly leftist place, so no shock. I survived unscathed, nobody knew I was a  lesbian Deplorable chud Trump voter.
 
So protest bad because backed by usaid but also bad because organic and scuffed, which one is it?
Bad because both ways they won’t get any protestors who are normal with “organic” complaints, you get frankenstien brain radio slaves parroting John Oliver burns even with the usaid the centre of the protests are boomers unable to explain themselves

Isn't what Trump doing the opposite of Orwellean?

I hate all the people who say punch fascists because wouldn't that kinda make them fascists
You expect retard faggots who use Transformer logos and little anime girls on political protest signs to actually know what’s Orwellian or not? Those faggots still don’t know what a actual fascist is lol.
 
You know I keep seeing signs and hearing these fuckers talk about how bad things are now and this and fucking that. But I don’t see it at all, almost nothing has actually changed for the normal person and these faggots acting like it has is just plain lies. Also fuck the parents, I hope only the worst things for anyone who involves children in shit like this. That kid didn’t care and didn’t want to spend his fucking weekend around the smelliest losers in this country. He wanted to play games with his friends and shit but no he has to make sure his parents and the Dems get some internet ass pats.

I've always wanted to sneak into a modern day book-burning (I just need to pay attention for the next one) and offer people copies of Fahrenheit 451 just to see if anybody appreciates dramatic irony like I do. :story:

Again assuming these retards have actually read Fahrenheit 451. They haven’t made a modern remake of it with brown people and trannys yet have they? If not then there goes the only way these people could possibly consume the story lol.
 
Saw a physical copy of the NYT at the newsstand (yeah I still do that in 2025).

The front page had this graph that looks like a really steep decline in the S&P 500... until you see that the bottom of the graph is around 5000 and the top is around 6000. I think the journos are deliberately trying to make the tariff situation look much worse than it really is. Also, "tariffs bad" seems to be a recurring theme in the papers.

whens the last book burning you're aware of? The only book burning I'm aware of is books teaching children to be sexual deviants.

He wants to hang out with Valentina Gomez, scream FAGGOT and burn queer books with a flamethrower

Which honestly sounds like a great weekend barbecue event
