On another note, when do you guys want the time skip, and when would you like to time skip to?

« on: November 05, 2016, 11:18:43 pm »Note that we've now completely diverted from the question of the sources to that video earlier, since people found arguments that they actually have a chance of winning to argue over.
Best tactic in a losing argument is to change the subject, after all.
Veritas is probably bullshit. I have no idea what it is, but it's probably (not definitely) bullshit, with a few potential grains of truth spread here and there, buried beneath an amorphous sea of lies and dry-labbing. I've always hated those overblown things that take attention and credibility from more serious investigations/whatever it is Veritas is like, they're usually just as bad as the oftentimes ridiculously biased mainstream media sources and also occasionally even worse.

« on: November 05, 2016, 11:15:48 pm »Pointing out that the people with the "high-ground" e.g. on the side of Her Majesty Clinton II shouldn't have double standards is a perfectly valid thing to do. On another note, I love people painting the FBI as crazy pro-Trump people who hate poor Hillary and are doing all these awful things to try and help Herr Trump win, forgetting this might be because Comey not recommending an indictment was actually bullshit and a lot of people in the FBI aren't very happy with it.
From that same guardian article people keep saying is proof of "Trumpland"Quote“There are lots of people who don’t think Trump is qualified, but also believe Clinton is corrupt. What you hear a lot is that it’s a bad choice, between an incompetent and a corrupt politician,” said a former FBI official.Source: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/nov/03/fbi-leaks-hillary-clinton-james-comey-donald-trump
Not actually really talking about the article itself there. Props to it for actually being vaguely unbiased. Despite an obvious pro-Clinton slant, it's actually bringing up opposing points of view as well.
Quote from: Same Article
The leaks have not exclusively cast aspersions on Clinton. Paul Manafort, Trump’s former campaign manager, is the subject of what is said to be a preliminary FBI inquiry into his business dealings in Russia. Manafort has denied any wrongdoing.
At the very least that shows the FBI isn't this universally pro-Trump conspiracy (or at least that some of the people leaking are trying to be non-partisan. Or there are two partisan sides leaking dirt on the others.)

Oh, but when someone brings up that level of evidence putting Clinton in a negative light, that's a big no-no.

Alex decides that using his ability would help practice his magic while simultaneously doing what was necessary, so instead of his hands mashes the medela with his mind instead.

"That's why I have backup plans on what to do if this ends up going nowhere. Honestly, I almost hope it goes nowhere. Whatever that poem is really about, it sounds like a sad and monumental task."Liz ends up looking somber before announcing that she'll be going to her room for an early night's rest. She'll probably be up for another hour or so and can be contacted if needed, but she cautions everyone to get plenty of sleep and not stay up late - you leave at dawn, after all.
