"Bah", he said, slamming his flagon of mead down, "the KHive are all sellswords, they fight for coin, not honor."
You pay the KHive by tossing a bag of coins at them, which they catch with one hand.
Do you think they really did that in olden times? And did you have to give the bag back? Because I would want my bag back.
Why can't I stop laughing at the image of someone catching the bag of coins, taking the coins out, and then walking back over to the person to give them their bag back.

The tirades against Obama would probably hold some moral weight if the same people didn't constantly complain that no one appreciates Stalin enough.

She reportedly killed the children of noblemen but not a single nobleman ever claimed to have a child missing.

Our institutions have held up pretty well against the greatest stress test they've faced since the Civil War.
The courts shot him down, the states ignored him, the military did their job, his own DOJ told him to fuck off. These are not lucky accidents, this is centuries of instilling civic duty paying off.
Americans like America! They think democracy is important because for most people there's an inherent human need to be part of something bigger and more important than yourself. Unfortunately a lot of blue checks are flabbergasted anyone could believe that last thing.

The Last Jedi was the movie Yoda would have written. The entire theme is that nothing at all matters except the Force. Fans didn't like it because they want other things to matter, like lightsabers and ancient macguffins.

Are any of these theories based on any kind of scientific rigor, or is it more or less this guy just riffing? Because this all sounds extremely fake.
I know autogynephilia isn't a thing because it would have had an internet community by now. There would be autogynephilia youtube stars, people complaining about Autogynephilia Twitter. There's not even a flag.

Republicans are starting to realize that a deadly virus that only kills their voters isn't a Metal Gear Solid plotline, it's the actual reality they face with a midterm year on the horizon.
