Sometimes I get why oldies chose the politics they did. If these schizos were anything but an irrelevant minority seething into the void now I'd probably not be right leaning either. Yeah we didn't get anything from breaking their political backbone but I'd do it again just cause of how detestable these strags are.

OK so basically I'll give a TLDW for all the boomer gaymers and actual boomers who've never gaymed, to comprehend the scope of his clumsy attempt to deceive people in thinking he's some kind of GAYMER badass, and how he's desperate to be seen as one of the COOL kids gaymer crowd, but his terminal out-of-touch boomerism makes his attempted masquerade so incredibly brutally r-slurredly obvious for anyone even remotely familiar with the type of game he's playing on his Tesla-branded (TM) livestreams. :marseylaughpoundfist: :marseyxd:


BACKGROUND - POE2: Pillars of Eternity 2

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736760906OwfL3Joxc0ZWJg.webp

Path of Exile 2 is a vidya where gaymers control fantasy chad characters in an isometric view, to make the characters kick baddguys and monsters in the balls, as the characters gain experience in combat, they level up with better super powers, to kick monsters in the balls even harder. :marseypunching: :punch: :pepepunching: :carppunch: :squareup:

The game/characters is controlled primarily controlled via the mouse and keyboard, and is called an A-RPG (Action Role Playing Game), in order to distinguish it from all those lame straggy nerdy wimp RPG games which all the 4-eyed losers in highschool played, because A-RPGs are cool and manly :marseycool2:

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736760906ii2M7GoERAo4xQ.webp

The reason I'm mentioning the genre, is because virtually all A-RPGs are all 90% the same, if you've played one (Titan Quest, Grim Dawn, Torchlight, Pillars of Eternity 2), then you've gathered the intrinsic knowledge to have played them all.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736760907f4EBSaAGEy1wXg.webp

All of them are isometric firework fiascos, and all of them follow the core-DNA which was established in the genre defining releases of Diablo 1 & 2 about 30 years ago in 1997 & 2000 respectively.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736760907E4jYqFRK9pIP7g.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736760907oOXtSjMmOGVlsw.webp

Well if all of these gaymes are all 95% the same, then what's the point of playing them all? It's because Blizzard (the company which created the Diablo games, along with the famous World of Warcraft) sucks in its current form, and the latest Diablo 4 is shit, and thus Path of Exile 2 has filled in the void.

https://old.reddit.com/r/PathOfExile2/comments/1hoj0wv/3_weeks_after_release_path_of_exile_2_is_top_of/

POE2 is consistently in the top 10 most played games on steam monthly charts, and though it sometimes falls off every now and then, whenever big AAA releases are released within a month, like call of duty or the latest FIFA. Regardless of the fake popularity contest - I bring this up only to indicate that POE2 is currently one of the most popular games on Earth, and while it isn't as big as League of Legends, DOTA2, Fortnite, it's still as popular as it's reasonable for any Game Developer to can ever dream of, and is spoken alot by children, Highscoolers and terminal gaymers IRL that I have actually spoken to.

The 1st Path of Exile 1, was free which garnered a massive playerbase, especially in the poorcel :marseybeggar: :marseypoor: :marseywagie: 3rd world !brics and followed the same transactional-scheme as League of Legends, paying only for exclusive skins and appearances and crap, which the playerbase very happy with, because it meant that skill and progress was never bought.

So it's unsurprising why even a giga out-of-touch Boomer like Musk would have heard about a game like Path of Exile 1/2, whereas games like Fortnite are still in a much more younger audience (at least perceived so, and games like LOL/DOTA are way too fricking painful and turbo-neurodivergent, POE2 is instead something relatively noob/non-gaymers could enjoy, and also eventually grind/skill-up their way into the elite ultra-autism vidya gaymer club, and thus POE2 is semi-cooler as a game for a boomer like Musk to want to relate with, to the cool kids younger gaymer memer maymay club :marseycool2: :marseycool2: :marseycool2: :marseyelonmusk:


MUSK CLAIMS HE'S TOP IN PATH OF EXILE 2:

Musk has claimed many times on in interviews that he's a top-tier vidya-gaymer, including in Joe Rogan, where he mentioned that he's played a metric shitload of games and is good in them, including in games which are in different genres to that of POE2, such as Starcraft 1/2. All of the games which Musk has claimed he is a super good chad at, all have one thing in common - they are very popular, and have large playerbases and thus non-gaymers would have heard of them. You'll note, as many others have before me, Musk has never claimed to be good in obscure, non-famous games, the type Boomers like Musk would not have heard of - like Rogue Trader compared to Starcraft.

Musk has claimed in Joe Rogan Podcasts that he's in the top 20, top 100, in games like Diablo or Path of Exile!

And since Elon Musk is such a massively dramatarded dramapilled controversial figure, heaploads of people have sought to disprove even these inane throwaway statements. And shockingly Musk Proved them wrong with an account which he controlled in one of his several livestreams, controlling a verifiable character, which has been actually in the Top 10 leaderboard of the month for POE2!!!

(Here's an Indian "article" :marseyxd: )

Where players and Musk-fanbois followed his character's climb from the top-1000 players during the Christmas period, to eventually the top-100 players by the time New Year's Eve arrived.


Here's a jannied thread on /r/PathOfExile, which catalogued Elon Musk's character's meteoric rise into the top-1000 Leaderboard, but which was deleted because even gaymer redditors are wingcucks, and the jannies jannied it because no WRONGTHINK. Please very important to note that this thread is from 31 December 2024, before the following shitshow is about to start!

Here's a comment linking to the Livestream Musk held during the period of the holidays, by one of his fans.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736760908N03hLZkTRoyw6Q.webp

NEURODIVERGENT POE2-VETERANS PROVE MUSK'S ACCOUNT IS A GRIND ACCOUNT!

Ok so for the Boomers on rdrama.net @Redactor0Boy , I'll summarize as much as possible how easy it was to demonstrate for people actually well versed in POE2 and A-RPG type games, that they could tell the character/account which Musk played within his December 2024 holidays, was not levelled/grinded by himself, because he displayed the most boomeresk mannerisms and incompetence regarding the playing of the game, during his relatively short, hour long Livestream sessions.

And the reason I went on tangent on what type of game (A-RPG) Path of Exile 2 was earlier in the post, was to demonstrate how transferrable skills and experience are between games in the genre, and that as Musk has claimed he has been a top-tier player in all of the Diablo games since the very 1st in 1997, his inept and incompetent masquerade at his supposed skills in his short 1-hour livestreams makes it all the more hilarious :marseyxd: :marseyxd: :marseyxd: how much of a fricking non-g*mer he is, let alone a fricking A-RPG mega expert cool guy, he wishes the g*mer crow to see him as!!


(1) On one of his inventory tabs, it's called Elon's maps - does Elen refer to himself in the 3rd Person :marseyhmm: :marseyhmmm: probably. Like someone has been powerlevelling his account, and was like: they're in here dipshit

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736760908D06ylfBCjHP22w.webp

(2) Endgame hardcore maps/levels/arenas have to be connected by nodes, but in the livestream ELon shows how he clearly has no idea about this as he fiddles with the Map interface for like 60 seconds, trying to click on a grayed out map (which the game tells you need to finish the preceding maps 1st). This boomer move is like your gradpa continuing to click the OK button after he's already exited a program :marseyxd: :marseyxd: :marseyxd: A character as high levelled as Musk's sock-puppet account would have played thousands of maps at this point

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736760908hfGbCqCJo_I0Gw.webp

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736760908rkcskGNCmXFRWQ.webp

(3) He demonstrates he has no notion on what loot is valuable and what is junk, and at some point he just runs past the most rare currency item in the game.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736760908YR-afHjRVRUGCQ.webp

(4) The game POE2 has a nice feature called a "Loot Filter" which basically does what it says - only the highest equipment dropped by monsters/badguys your character kills by kicking them in the balls, are made visible, and the junk filler trash equipment are made to be not even interactable, so as to not waste your time. Elon does not have these filters on during his Livestream.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736760908AGyTYL8tJLYrjw.webp

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736760909VT1RBk6eqbbkEQ.webp

(5) Musk never once uses Mana potions (a resource to replenish your superpowers juice), even when fighting extremely dangerous enemies - Musk demonstrates a complete absence of awareness of even the existence of Mana potions or how to use them in game.

(6) In all A-RPG games, you have the capacity to loot items lying on the ground by just left clicking on them - Musk goes terminal boomer by DRAGGING each and every item he loots on the ground, slowly into the open inventory screen - which is an option, but not the intended role for the screen by the devs! :marseytrollcrazy: :marseytrollcrazy: :marseytrollcrazy: :marseytrollcrazy: :marseytrollcrazy:

(7) Musk doesn't realize when his inventory is full, and numerous time during his Livestream playthroughs, he continuously clicks on items on the ground, not realizing his inventory is full, showcasing his complete lack of understanding of such a basic mechanism - especially as the game has an audio and visual cue for the player to warn them their inventory is full

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736760909CZ98wGpUZyAiPA.webp

(8) Elon plays on factory default settings, example not having the game showing your exact health/resources/mama, which contravenes the settings of the most experienced player whi rely on having as much information as possible, the devs turn these settings off and give the player only a UI red orb to show total character health remaining, so as to not overwhelm newcomers.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736760909H2In6cq8jNFx6g.webp

(9) Elon boasts about destroying trash mobs - low level junk enemies, which fluff out maps and sections of the game, when the majority of difficulty in POE2 derives from facing endgame bosses, thus Elon demonstrating his absence of true undertsanding of teh game. The only endgame boss Elon faces during his Livestream, he repeatedly dies to.

(10) In Path of Exile 1/2, gear have requirements to equip them. But most of the time, this requirement has little bearing on how good the top gear is - some of the best gear in the game, namely those equipment with the best permutation of overpowered stats and buffs and shit, have relatively lower requirements for characters to equip them, whilst relatively mediocre junk gear have disproportionately high requirements to wear, for disproportionately little return in terms of how good they are.

The Youtuber Quin69TV explains how one of the best pieces of gear can even be eqquiped from level 1 onwards. I mention this, because Elon repeatedly boasts to his audience on his Livestream he tries to impress of his lofty giga Gaymer swagness and skill, about the high levels of his endgame equipment worn by his character - not realizing that the equipment levels are indications of requirements to wear, not indications of the powerscales of the loot itself

Musk even goes on to shittalk the loot he's currently wearing, calling them "only level 55" or only "level 40" or whatever, and stating he would soon replace them with a REAL MAN's gear :marseycool: :marseycool2: , not realizing that they are literally the best of the very best loot findable in the current iteration of the game, which whomever Indian/chinese powerlevelling poorcel shadowacccount which had powerlevelled Musk's account for him, had gone to extreme lengths to grind on behalf of Musk :marseyxd: :marseyxd: :marseyxd: :marseyxd: :marseyxd: :marseyxd: :marseyxd: :marseypajeetitsover: :marseychingchongitsover:


Anyways, point is Musk must have paid some Indian/Chinese 3rd worlder !brics pennies (which are worth billions of rands/rubles/yen/rupees in their home poorcel country) for somebody who is an actual POE2 gaming god tier good, who offers to powerlevel characters/accounts, which basically mean they will play the game FOR YOU, in order to get to a set level or grind hundreds of hours per week ingame, in order to find desired loot for westerners with powerful currencies.

And for many Indians/Indonesians/chinks, these are actual unironic decent work for money, if you don't find it soul crushing to play the same fricking game over and over on behalf of fat middleclass neckbeard westernoids.

https://conquestcapped.com/path-of-exile-2/service/poe-2-leveling/

It's not even that expensive - here's just one of the many multitude of websites which offer everything from pre-existing accounts/characters, to finding desired loot for customers, to levelling characters to a specific character!

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736760909J2ahSq2lHHeluA.webp

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736760909o3UiTWWJ28ktFw.webp

And what's astonishing about these sites which trade 3rd Worlder lifespan for money, is that the most trusted Sites, the ones which doesn't scam and just run off with money, get the best reputations, and ratings on appstores and game forums! As word of mouth spread of specific site/company services, because to many fricking tens of thousands of peeps pay them!

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736760909A8OGH1H0CY4sQg.webp

So our boi Musk, literally just hired a 3rdie account grindmaxxer :carpmeatgrinder: :carpmeatgrinder: :carpmeatgrinder: :carpmeatgrinder: who probably spent like real world hours ingame to create this super powered character for Musk, which he them used to try and masquerade in front of his Livestream audience to look Swag and Cool with :marseylaughpoundfist: :marseylaughpoundfist: :marseylaughpoundfist:

And the worst part was he was shittalking the gear which probably took monumental effort for the Inidan/Chinese super neurodivergent gaymer to equip his butt with! This is the most Boomer shit I've seen in a year!

Also in POE2 there is something called Permadeath-mode, which all A-RPGs have, which is as the name implies, your entire character and all his shit, gets frucking deleted from your account, if he dies, making death the most of extremes, and is considered the greatest of difficulty dividers. Musk actually lost this giga boosted character during the same timeframe, and that 200 hours of effort by the Sexy Indian dude/Chink grinder's effort into the void ahahahahahaahhaa :marseylaughpoundfist:

Was this knit designer ripped off? :marseyscream:

Florence Spurling is a moderately popular knitwear designer who made her Scout Shawl pattern in 2021. It uses different color work designs "patchworked" together to form a shawl.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738199696MPB143JmLhJBGQ.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738199697CAx_LWEDWvrGYw.webp

Earlier this month a smaller designer named Susan Chin released her Quilt Star Scarf pattern. It has a similar shape and patchwork construction to Spurling's design.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738199697xNc2rhxhC1dhlw.webp

This has lead people to accuse Chin of plagiarism, which Spurling addressed in an instagram post see above and below

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738199698fSyyd0uJsoSF_w.webp

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738199698Sa4pF32BB6vijw.webp

(I can't link to the post because Spurling later deleted it)

The scarves obviously have some similarities, but they also have some differences. Here's a list of what's the same and what's different that someone else wrote, speaking of plagiarism :

Both objects use Intarsia and Fair Isle/Stranded colorwork.

Both patterns have multiple blocks in different motifs, joined together as the finished object is worked.

Both patterns have colorwork charts. (Scout > Shawl is in full color; Quilt Star is in greyscale)

The border is not indicated on either pattern's chart.

Suggested Gauge for the two patterns; Scout Shawl suggests 28sts x 30rows for 10cm, using 3.5mm needles. Quilt Star suggests 28sts x 27 rows for 10cm using 2.5mm or 3mm needles.

Finished size for Scout Shawl is 181cm, 37cm deep

Finished size for Quilt Star is 150cm, 35cm deep

Scout Shawl relies on 5 colors and makes suggestions as to the color contrast if you don't use the same palette as the pattern. Color 1 is the garter stitch border.

Quilt Star relies on 8 colors. No contrast is suggested, only the colors recommended in the original pattern. Color 8 is the 1x1 rib border.

At least one motif in Scout uses 3 colors.

Each motif in Quilt uses no more than 2 colors.

Cast on is 8 stitches for Scout.

Cast on is 4 stitches for Quilt.

All sections on Scout meet at 90 degree angles.

Some sections on Quilt meet at diagonals, at ~45deg ish.

Scout has 10 distinct blocks and patterns.

Quilt has 7 (?) distinct patterns. There seems to be an error in the charts. I'm not sure my count is correct based on the charts alone. But it is certainly fewer.

Increases on Scout are M1L, Decreases are k2tog

Increases on Quilt are kfb, decreases are k2tog.

Scout's finishing has no special bind off for the remaining 8 stitches.

Quilt uses a seamed bind off for the 6 remaining stitches.

Motifs for Scout appear to be floral.

Motifs for Quilt appear to be star-them

Source

VERDICT: they're different patterns.

https://media.tenor.com/NekZAyven0gAAAAx/the-devil-wears-prada-ground-breaking.webp

This didn't stop people from stirring shit, because obviously you need to have an MFA to be inspired by patchwork, and only one person is allowed to be inspired by a thing.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738199698GntmsifEJf0N2g.webp

People (Spurling suck ups) went on social media to b-word, including leaving comments on the Ravelry page for Chin's scarf. (Ravelry is like letterboxd for knitting and crochet, and also a platform that many designers use to sell their patterns)

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17381996982sH1ASYmG-yZUQ.webp

Source, but you need a Ravelry account to view

This lead to Chin taking the pattern down for sale. Satisfied with the results, Spurling deleted her post :marseysmug:. And so ends another chapter in the ongoing saga of insecure designers accusing others of plagiarism.


A few I remember from the last year:

A designer put out merch with "Knit Club" on a baseball caps. Well some other pattern designer has a community by that unique name and also has baseball caps merch (but none that actually say "Knit Club"

Women and need to post giga-Ls

					
					

When people ask if you are pregnant and you aren't...

I was shopping at Victoria's Secret, and I asked the saleswoman for help. She leaned in an asked if I was pregnant. When I said no, she said, "Are you sure?" When I angrily said NO again, she said, "You look like you are about 4 months along."

It makes me sad when I see pregnant posts on social media and women are bragging about their baby bumps. I have Crohn's Disease, and I've had a bit of a belly for most of my life, while the rest of my body is skinny. Their baby bumps look like my everyday life. Perhaps it's a combination of knowing I never want to be pregnant but having so many people in my life tell me I should have kids + feeling hurt that many people have ASKED me if I am pregnant because of my bloating.

As a woman, I just want to be valued for more than how my body looks or what creatures my body can produce. :p

*EDIT: The VS incident happened a little while ago, so I won't be able to complain to the manager or report her, but I have just been feeling a lack of confidence in my body lately and been seeing so many pregnant posts, I am currently feeling triggered. Since the incident at VS, several other people have asked the same rude question, but that one was by far the worst because she would not let it go. So.... thanks redditors for the support. :)

Lol, he straight up said that the tarrifs were contingent on whether canada/mexico met his demands regarding illegal immigration/human trafficking/fentnyl which they did. Him threatening tarrifs worked and him not having to implement them is a good thing for the economy. How embarrassing tho :marseywingcuck:

Some highlights:

If you're going to have a gay scene in your game that is supposed to be historically accurate and allow players free choice, you should give us the option to report the homosexuals to the church or Bailiffs if you catch them in the act. There should also be accurate punishments for that time period. But if they don't do this despite having the scene then all this is, is just pandering that they included to appease the left but also not offend them.

Maybe he should have a homosexual scene in the privacy of his own bedroom and leave it out of the game

This whole debacle is why you really shouldn't tie your work/product to either side of the political spectrum. One step "in the wrong" direction and you're crucified over it, left or right, doesn't matter. Best to stay neutral.

They are being roasted specifically because they are not maintaining neutrality, the no politics rule is not being enforced or the pro lgbtq posts would be all getting locked and perma'd alongside the the anti posts, this is their main problem and if they start perma banning those this problem will go away.

I do feel, I have no proof on this, like there is some misinformation going on to damage this game. I never pre-order games but I do recommend everyone to wait and see until launch, see what the people you trust says about the game or watch some playthroughs yourself.

yea there is missinformation being thrown at them here, the whole gay scene is fabricated by the looks of it. I have seen preview materials of the game and the scene with nude men bathing is within the first hour and can be seen in IGN's material. What they say don't match those accusation photos and what is worse is that the text font is different than the games which means photoshop.

[Rant] The Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 controversies reek of a bad grift from game journ*lists.

From what I understand, there are two major "controversies" surrounding Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2:

a scene involving a black trader

a (so-called) unskippable cutscene featuring a gay couple

The first one can be explained away by what happened during the previous game. There is already a recent post about what game journ*lists have done during this timeframe, so I'll defer to that post since that already shows everything.

The second one doesn't make any sense because (and I recently learned about this because the game is too outside my normal areas) that there was already a gay couple in the previous KCD game. Even light browsing from before KCD 2 was even announced suggested that this was never a controversy in the first place, and (as seen in the discussion), Bohemia was actually tolerant towards gays in this time period.

So, why does a game that had zero controversies about gays in the first game complete with a gay couple in the first game and no mentioning of bannings from kooky Middle East countries suddenly have both a controversy and a banning (both rumors) in the second game?

Daniel also flew the GG flag ten years ago, when doing so meant your career might actually be harmed by it. He has more claim to the G*merGate name than almost anyone that still posts in this sub.

I made this account in 2014, specifically to participate in GG, and he was one of the first and only actual high profile devs to have our back.

Vavra had every opportunity over the last few days to clear the air with us and in a way that was respectful to us as customers and supporters of his content. Instead, he was more focused on calling someone a Nazi than offering any explanation, and even today with his statement, gives us no clear cut answer on what we want to know.

That alone, in my opinion, is disrespectful and a complete 180 from how transparent he used to be with us. Needless to say, he did this to himself.

https://old.reddit.com/r/KotakuInAction/comments/1i3odf3/im_disappointed_that_some_people_are_willing_to/m7oqrsx/?context=8


He called a guy with a nazi flag in his bio and who was pointing out Daniel's ancestry, a nazi. This is not an instance of a soy male feminist calling someone a nazi 'cause they like boobs in video games.

https://old.reddit.com/r/KotakuInAction/comments/1i3odf3/im_disappointed_that_some_people_are_willing_to/m7ot3u2/?context=8


The point is Daniel ignored all the other comments asking him in good faith about the matter at hand. His statement today was also entirely a non-answer. I'm still optimistic about the game based on Daniel's reputation over the past decade, but this is a bad sign to me. He could extremely easily have put the matter to bed, and chose not to.

In light of recent controversies regarding KC2, I know a lot of you are desperate to reach the promised land. Maybe that is the problem. Your desperation for a promised land will only lead you to further disappointment. No company is safe. Everyone is corruptible. We are refugees in the end searching for good games. If a developer sold out, then prepare to jump ship. It is that simple. By acknowledging that you are refugee and letting go your attachments, you can avoid this kind of drama all together.

I am not paying attention to the drama regarding KC2. I never pre-order games and I will find out if the game is woke or not once it comes out. If it is woke, I simply will not buy it and will never look back at this company ever again. That's all you have to do. You don't have to get bent out of shape over a company that is not worth your time. When one company gets infected by the woke virus, you just jump ship. There is still a lot of new great games that are coming out. With the current environment we are in, get ready to jump ship often.

https://old.reddit.com/r/KotakuInAction/comments/1i4cpln/we_are_refugees/


Are you suggesting that when we see a game that is showing signs of being woke, we should just not support it while not discussing it at all? This is a subreddit built around discussing games to avoid, we're obviously going to discuss it here - especially when it's a developer who once acted as an ally but now is going in a different direction.

I seriously do not understand people's problem with us discussing concerns regarding KCD2. Strange how this wasn't coming up in regards to other games, but because it's KCD2, suddenly it's different.

https://old.reddit.com/r/KotakuInAction/comments/1i4cpln/we_are_refugees/m7u473k/?context=8


Again, I won't be believing anything until I've seen it for myself. The Steam forums having to be moderated due to the amount of repetitive crap going back and forth on it isn't exactly the smoking gun in this current ongoing drama. That entire environment is chockful of whiney trolls and terminally online people on both sides of the fence, repeatedly posting the same tiresome "gotcha!" topics across the majority of forums for different games.

Yes, this could easily turn out to be all true and you can tell us all you were "right" in hindsight, go right ahead if that does. You can tell us we should have listened to the endless clues and patterns, that we are all coping hard like idiots. Until then however, nobody should be thought different of for not freaking out before they have all the facts before them. I do my voting with my wallet, not internet clickbait.

I don't think Americans understand what a war with Canada would actually look like : AskCanada | American pretends leafs would do terrorism

					
					

Right off the bat, I'm American, and this is just my best guess, but I've been talking to and hearing a lot of Americans say stuff like "oh if it came to it it would be over in a day" or some stuff like that. WRONG

We. Would. Not. Be. Able. To. Stop. The. Bombings.

I don't think most Americans consider how much easier fighting a war is when you can identify your enemy by skin color and language, you guys speak English (mostly) you have basically the same demographic makeup as the US, basically what I'm saying is that you are the platonic ideal for a partisan guerilla campaign.

You can't buy KN03 in Canada because the government is worried people would make black powder with it. Americans have nothing to fear from !leafs bombing them.

I can pretty much guarantee that the first thing the Canadian military high command does is erase all records of who is in the Canadian military, hide all of their leopards, their jets, their stuff that is on par with US military tech in bunkers in the Northern Territories and destroy the fricking maps, you won't be using them for a while, but they're nice to have around if needed.

No. We haven't even destroyed the long gun registry 20 years after a court ordered it to happen.

The Canadian military will then systematically erase any identifiable signatures it has, servicemen and women will burn their ID cards, their uniforms, bury caches of small arms, explosives, anti tank weapons, anti air rockets.

Lmao no. Most CAF members have little to no real training. They don't have the ammo needed to train. Heck they got rid of post basic training! !burgers that right leafs go to basic and then "learn on the job".

This war would not look like anything the US has ever seen before in its history, this war would look like car bombs in Des Moines Iowa every day, Police Stations being shot up in every state of the Union, political assassinations.

Canadians allowed themselves to be disarmed (at least the lefties did). They don't have guns to shoot with.

mtf, stereotype, communist, neurodivergent, type shit

Dude was rambling about some nonsense, and I just nodded along, waiting to get it over with. About an hour in, we got down to business and I fricked his butt (with a condom, obviously).

Tbh I felt kind of disgusted, but you know, neighbors just gotta take what they can get

It is what it is.


To find the mystical true femboy (biological male that passes as female with the exception of the peepee)

But as it turns out, they don't really exist or at least, they're so incredibly rare they might as well not exist

It's like finding a cryptid, but at the same time, trying to find that true femboy is almost addictive...

It's like gambling, trying to hit the jackpot.

I just remembered this

years ago, back in my bachelor (degree) days πŸ˜‰πŸ˜‰I was in a material history of central Italy in antiquity class, and we were looking at a pretty standard statue depicting ancient italians. this lady who looked like a Reddit avatar asks: "if these are Italians, why are they depicting asians with dreads.." she then says something about culture appropriation. I nearly did a backflip in my seat. The prof was thrown off for like a good 5 secs.

The next year I'm in another elective with this person. African history, very easy but a lovely class. An iron age Italian tribe and a pre Iron Age African tribe have the same name and this person asks "so how did x group get over there "

Should have made the bet "how many EOs will he sign in the cuck chair?" (It was four.) instead of "how many will he sign today". Would have made the bet more interesting.
