K, build your own roads and public institutions then.

Doesn't work, they take the cheap words too. "Fake news" was originally used for right-wing propaganda. The only solution is education so that future generations are more aware of and resistant to dog whistles and doublespeak.

The "every single American is culpable and therefore my bigotry is excused" energy is getting wild.

DEVO covering (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction is way up there for me. Loses the fuzzy guitar but the lyrics land better as an odd punk song than the whining of one of the biggest rock acts in the world.

Isolated as a pure salt, maybe. All those "uncured" varieties listing celery as an ingredient are making use of the same compound though.

Don't assume that a functioning casino was his goal. He enriched himself and made the right connections through his "failures" to keep doing it.

You might be sympathetic to a recent video essay from Door Monster's Kyle who definitely has a bone to pick with TLOU2 (and other recentish pop culture hits)

"Nothing gets my head back in the game like some Solid Oral." "I didn't believe the hype, but my teammate gave me Solid Oral and now I won't settle for less."

Sells itself, it's perfect.

"All civil unrest is actually corporate psyops" is certainly a take.

Just gonna pop in here to yell at the clouds. I hate the name "Liquid I.V." for a powdered sports drink. It's none of the things. It's a dry-ass powder that doesn't go in your veins. Fuck. And it's presumably meant to evoke the emergency dehydration scenario of world-class athletes dying on the sideline, hooked up to saline drips to keep their muscles from cramping inside-out. Everything about the branding is crap.

The product itself is fine though.

Woah there, not all law enforcement. Still need park rangers and game wardens to protect the commons.

No, because my interests were "reading books" and "knowing things" and I had very little patience for people who did not understand the basic rules to a game on first explanation, for example. That's still true but it's much easier to select your peer group as an adult.
