Track drift chicken.

... could swear there's something like that made into an anime or manga. Racing parody with trains. Couldn't even begin to guess what it was called, though.

Th... through. The word is through. Through hordes. Not trough. Things eat out of troughs. There's a typo on yer web page, OP.

Looks neat, though. Probably check it out after work tomorrow.

Uh, which is basically to say yes, they're what amounts to government employed celebrities, just ones which also happen to inherit (some degree of control over) a fair amount of land.

And may have been where he was more or less at our request, from what I've seen of chatter. Basically we murdered a high level iranian official under the flag of truce, pissing on iraqi sovereignty as we went.

There's worse circumstances to have assassinated a top level political figure, but... not many.

It being Boeing, technical difficulty would definitely be highest on the list of possibilities, for what that's worth.

Things like that happening is just another reason escalatory horseshit is a bad idea to indulge in, though. Things ramp and then random shit happens and no one's terribly able to tell wtf is going on 'cause multiple actors involved are losing their fucking mind.

It'd be morbidly amusing if Boeing's murderous corner cutting sparks off an active war, though :-\

I mean... neither can trump. So you're in company. Not good company, but not alone.

Like porn - you had to go to a kiosk and convince the adult to sell it to you, because it used to be printed on paper!
Lies, you'd just filch them from some adult that wasn't paying attention, or something of similar intent. No need to convince anyone, just waiting until they forgot what porn they had or where they put it.

... honestly, now that I think about it things haven't actually changed that much, have they? The selection has just expanded massively and it's less forgetting where they put it and more forgetting (or just not knowing) how to find out if you've been at the stuff. The more things change, the more they stay the same, I guess. Also like in all things yesteryear was worse off, ha.

Guys cmon, it was a dice. The character is Suguri, in the video game 100% Orange Juice she is dependent on dodging, which allows her to avoid all damage from normal enemies and other player characters but makes her very weak against The Boss, which is the tar monster pictured, because he has two dice rather than one and in order to dodge, Suguri has to roll one dice and get a higher result.

Learn your waifulogy.
I actually fairly distinctly remember looking that up however many years ago it was I first saw explicit mention of its origin, and more or less immediately running into a version 0.DONG that, as near as I could tell, was the actual original. Can't find the thing anymore, though.

Annihilator rocket pods make for delightfully stupid adventurer build fodder, for what it's worth. The rest of their stuff trends nice but only so interesting, but those pods are just ridiculous. Especially paired with psi-shot, giving you passive ranged melee procs on basically everything in weapon range.

Have a fun, if not terribly optimal, one I've paused to play with shields, that picked up the rogue tools thing for hidden blades and then flexible combat. My bullets shoot rocks that shoot punches, basically. It's all sorts of amusing, and the regular quick as thought procs coming from fist of the desert scorpion are tasty. Wish rocket pods worked right with non-steamguns, though. Might end up fiddling up an add-on for that, I'unno.

Not only was Qasem Soleimani one of the top two or three people in the Iranian military, he was reportedly a close personal friend of Grand Ayatollah Khamenei.
I've heard it summarized that the guy was basically what you'd get if you combined pence and mattis for the US, and we just murdered 'im. Can't see this going well :-\

Haven't quite pegged down exactly what this stuff is, but I like it. There's a handful of other samaya mixtapes or whatever these things are on youtube and they're all pretty great. None of them have super consistent genre naming, near as I've noticed, though. Still. Good stuff.

Back to the roaring twenties, yeah. Another decade or two and we might get another swing revival. It's something to look forward to :)

Yeah, I'm not sure that's particularly accurate for all egg layers. Probably most of the larger ones but bugs get fukkin' weird.

Caviar would probably count if it weren't for how we generally harvest the things. Which. I guess it's like a half-way point between an abortion and an... oophorectomy, according to google... forcibly performed on a fish, from what I could tell from checking. They're intended for fishbutt equivalent but we don't let them get that far before we cut them out and eat them.

Bug eggs might not be. Caviar generally wouldn't be either, I think. Those are basically forced abortion eggs people eat.
