Translation: they can’t afford another stinker trying to bait you for micro transactions. I’m not saying there aren’t going to be any, but the Skyrim well runeth dry at this point. He might still fuck it up…
…fuck it up, fuck it up, Fuck It Up, Fuck It Up, FUCK IT UP, FUCK IT UP-! *clapping synchronously*
This is a tried and true American imperialist strategy. Economic warfare like sanctions and embargoes, barring countries from participating in trade is how you try to choke a country to death. See Cuba, Haiti, Bolivia.
Usually it’s an authoritarian country and the expectations is that the country will break up in revolution so US envoys can swoop in and install a “favorable candidate” - while sometimes employing the CIA to help in that process, maybe with a little assassination - as a treat.
But, the problem is, even though the country might have a despot, autocrat - or heaven forbid: a left leaning government - the people still are aware of the foreign encroacher.
Expecting them to bend to the whims of some sorted agent of foreign principal - who has a history of toppling legitimate governments - is insulting to the intelligence.
But ofc to Trump all people other than him are stupid - especially the US citizen - and that’s also how the republicans feel and why the US hasn’t won a single goddamn war in ages.
“Scuse me sir, have you read the Bible”?
“Have you?”
The vibes, I guess.
I chose neither!
Incidentally, I’m in the group who will statistically likely commit suicide, so I got that going for me.
At the same time, Pete Hegseth is telling soldiers to ignore military law, as the stacked supreme court is trying to force ninth circuits to accept vague and unspecified law changes that allow the executive body to define crime and punishment as they see fit.
I.e centralization of the powers into the white house, distorting the rule of law and preparing to weaponize the army against Americans. If they succeed, Americans can say goodbye to their democracy and hello to their new God emperor.
But being poor is a crime! She could have invested in crypto and gotten rich off of dumping it, but noooooo!
She had to “RrTiRe” and “EnJoY hEr wInTeR YeArS”. Lazy layabout. She’ll learn the value of HARDWORK once she’s making license plates, and maybe then she can pull herself up by her bootstraps by investing those $2 a day and earning her keep in about- oh, say a 100 years?
People live to be 200, right? I don’t know, I’m not good with numbers.
*horns start playing *
I got so much trouble on my mind, refuse to lose…
Merger rejected.
Thought crime for thee, freedom of screech for me.
As long as he’s in power.
When he’s forced to leave, when Democrats have taken all the seats of Congress and the white house years later, the republicans will instantly say it’s the Democrats fault and start citing numbers from Trump’s presidency, but just removing the time and date on those numbers.
Checkmate, atheists. JD Vance for president 2033. Make the white house waiting room couch great again.
It’s Swedish, so it’s somehow linked to the finance industry. Think Silicon Valley, but with Swedish meatballs.
Oh yes please, more Futurama formats!!
Too late. Putin already pair for it. He’s now got to render the service, like he did many times before.
It’s the art of the deal.
“Sir, what should we do this Martin Luther King day?”
So, yeah, HP and Dell are fucked - by what you may ask? Why, AI of course, because it’s hiked memory prices so far up it’s eating up their profit margins. They might be doomed.
She’s just afraid, because gamgam is going to beat her with those slippers.
Also, alternatively: maybe they got a nudge from up above - y’know, the big man… Nudella - and what we’re looking at an Xbox Windows exclusive…
But as a good little lap dog in the domain of our lord and savior Gabe Newell - hallowed be his monopoly - I say arf arf to that.
