US Politics: Losing Appeals
Ser Scot A Ellison replied to A Horse Named Stranger's topic in General Chatter
As long as this doesn’t result in the shittier candidate winning in the general… like Trump in 2016… that result will always give me pause about laughing and clapping with delight at Trumpanitas taking control of the Republican Party. -
Ukraine War: incompetence vs fecklessness
Ser Scot A Ellison replied to Kalbear's topic in General Chatter
Agreed. That’s why I said their “version” of Christianity. Not trying to play no true Scotsman. I’m just pointing out what I think they are missing from the teachings of Christ. -
Big Flying Rockets: Space Launches V
Ser Scot A Ellison replied to SpaceChampion's topic in General Chatter
I was watching the video of reentry again… lots of tiles seemed to be breaking off as they actuated the flaps. -

Their version of Christianity at least. The one that ignores or pretends that Christ’s sermon on the mount, sermon on the plain, directions to care for the stranger, and “the least of thee, don’t exist. -

Far too many US “Conservatives” have been embracing fascism since, at least, 2020. -

Seeing the plasma sheath developing around the vehicle was pretty awesome. Any word on how the Superheavy booster did landing in the gulf? -

My son is on discord. He and I are going to talk. -

Ser Scot A Ellison replied to IheartIheartTesla's topic in General Chatter
Isn’t the Congress passing a law demanding forced divestiture… a classic example of the State interfering with the private right to contract freely? -

It’s quite a bit further than Belogorod. -

Kursk is a long way into Russia… -

Ser Scot A Ellison replied to IheartIheartTesla's topic in General Chatter
Nope. I’m simply curious to see if you have any ideas. I didn’t say you couldn’t or shouldn’t offer criticism. -

Ser Scot A Ellison replied to IheartIheartTesla's topic in General Chatter
I would too. However, that doesn’t DQ Trump from the presidency. -

What do you think people need to do? How would you oppose a Trump re-election bid? -

Biden was competitive in NC in 2020. The abortion issue is a hot one there. NC is worth some effort. -

Not nationwide. $2.87 last time I filled up. -
Brandon Sanderson's Towers of Cash
Ser Scot A Ellison replied to SpaceChampion's topic in Literature
I enjoyed that. I also enjoyed Brienne’s travels in “A Feast for Crows”. Her naivete, her sense of honor, her closeted view of the world being confronted by… the world make for fascinating reading to me. -
Dune part 2: the spoilers must flow (Spoilers for the movies)
Ser Scot A Ellison replied to Kalbear's topic in Entertainment
I really dislike what he has done to both Star Trek and Star Wars. -
Brandon Sanderson's Towers of Cash
Ser Scot A Ellison replied to SpaceChampion's topic in Literature
I don’t care. The Big Macs produced en masse by Sanderson will never equal the fine meals crafted by GRRM. I’ll eat a Big Mac… but I’m never going to get excited about having done so. -

Ser Scot A Ellison replied to Kalbear's topic in Entertainment
No. Just no. J.J. Abrams is personification of “mediocre” and flash over substance. -
Brandon Sanderson's Towers of Cash
Ser Scot A Ellison replied to SpaceChampion's topic in Literature
Quantity will never ever be superior to quality. Sanderson may have written… more… but what GRRM has written while lower in quantity is better in quality to anything Sanderson has written. -

I will be legitimately floored if that is how they go.
