Hard to make a pantheon if it's just one guy with a bunch of alts.
It's Pantheism, not Pathosism.

Although the Sisters of the Sacred Sock Puppet is a religious order I could endorse.



I volunteer for the "grouchy elder god" slot, a la Cronus/Saturn. Because of my age, not because I secretly harbor a desire to devour any of you.

Arguably he's already a progressive, just one in the style of an enlightened Kaiser.

Probably - or the God of luck, gambling, deception, and thievery.

The position of God of warfare and violence would probably go to MZ. What other positions are needed?

A trickster god, a la Loki or Coyote? I'm guessing that would be our pre-eminent shitposter.

Boss Toad. Probably three-toe and k... something or other. Can't forget sirus, either -- he's the goddess of prostitutes and trucking. Jifo-whatsit probably deserves something.

...

Seriously though, this kind of speculation is... probably not for the best. It is the path to shipping charts and pointless self-aggrandizement. Make a thread for it or somethin'. I think there's been a couple along those lines over in FG&RP or summat.

Good point. It's not a derail that belongs in this thread, certainly.

Oh, way to derail the derail, guys....

It's not like there's anything worth talking about in US politics right now.

Well, other than Hillary's polling lead nationally going from 15-16% down to 4%. But then, that's one poll and it could be an outlier.

MSH confirmed for Trump's account.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Any thread is improved ~80% by the addition of shipping charts. Especially politics threads.
