There are 10 types of people in the world: those who know binary, and those who don’t.

I just added Dodge to my sheet and only now realize that I have better WS than Agi and Parry would cost the same, so maybe it's better. Or maybe not.

Parry can only be used in melee. Which you guys have been avoiding despite having melee builds. Dodge is all the time, so it is better in general.

While it would be epic, melee combat while in range of multiple kannons seems unwise.

There are things going around that are saying that because he, as a former president, said the documents were declassified that the documents are automatically declassified, which is a little bit bananas.

Apparently the three things he was being investigated for as part of the Espionage Act don’t really care whether the documents were classified or not though.

Shit might get real.

Paradox did actually publish a game based in prohibition era Chicago.

It… leaves a lot to be desired. It’s basically Gangsters 2 with the more recent XCOM turn-based tactics tacked on. Very disappointing.

I’ve been in the same boat as you for years though, Gangsters was a tremendous game.

The warrant was unsealed so we’ll find out soon what it was all about.

WSJ is saying there were several documents of the highest classification seized.

Edit: from the NYT:

Quote
The search warrant for Trump’s residence cited three criminal laws, all from Title 18 of the United States Code. Section 793, better known as the Espionage Act, which covers the unlawful retention of defense-related information that could harm the United States or aid a foreign adversary; Section 1519, which covers destroying or concealing documents to obstruct government investigations or administrative proceedings; and Section 2071, which covers the unlawful removal of government records. Notably, none of those laws turn on whether information was deemed to be unclassified.

Not only did she have a private email server, she didn’t delete the emails, the company hosting the server did.

She was stupid for doing it, but being stupid isn’t a crime.

Hilary Clinton has been investigated and didn’t do anything worthy of charge.

This isn’t a political witch hunt, this is Donald Trump being investigated for breaking the law. If he did break the law, his status as a former president should not be a barrier to that. This has nothing to do with Democrats or Republicans, and everything to do with a law-breaking individual being brought to account.

Garland (the AG) has moved to unseal the warrant for the search so it’s publicly available, which should hopefully let us know why there was a search and what the search found.

It also moves the ball firmly into Trump’s court, as he can appeal to have it not be unsealed, or release it himself.

I think part of the reason why the Republicans moved to ask for this is because they didn’t think it would happen, so hopefully that shuts them up too.

Apparently was at the Capitol Riot but wasn’t charged with anything, has form on social media for supporting Trump, and allegedly posted on Trump’s nonsense platform they were proposing war.

It’s just another example of how post-truth politicians are encouraging people to be more violent to people they disagree with.

One of those could quite easily destroy you and others around you though.

Drugs’ll just get you high.
