I found out that on just the very first day of this thread we hit 200 pages, that has to be some kind of record right?
Fatpacks, I just want you to know, I genuinely enjoy your posts and I'm glad you're around.
Even if the only reason you're here is a paycheck.
I agree completely Im going to get that fuck to give me a positive reaction, even just one by the end of trumps term, that my big goal.
 
Eli is also meant to be one of the random NPC scientists who was in the control room when everything went to shit in HL1, who happened to have dark skin as part of the character model.
Before 2010 black characters just kinda existed and nobody gave a shit because they weren't forced down our throats back then. I remember people even used to like black centric comedies.
 
Every time you think there's a genius conspiracy running everything down to the last detail, remember, these people spent billions of dollars on a business plan that had as its central marketing message, "Fuck you, shitlord, but give me your money anyway," and they still can't figure out why it didn't work.
This is ONE of the reasons I’m so conspiratorial about the US being pozzed by the CCP.

The things that happen make no sense unless your goal is just for America to stop being cool, fuck up its moral credibility, weaken its economy, etc etc etc

If you just wanted to make America gay and leftist, keep going at the 1990’s pace. Most of us loved it

So people in positions to enact these policies probably see some angle where it works out positively for themselves, personally, and the incentives probably come from some external entity, because why would you burn your house down while you’re still in it?
 
So what is the line between DEI and just having diversity for story and variety? Eli and Alyx fit the setting and feel grounded, Chell being Asian and Glados being female doesn't send any red flags, Demoman doesn't seem out of place in TF2.

What about the setting implies that niggers doing anything but beating and raping Chinese women, let alone raising their daughters, has become normal?

why would you burn your house down while you’re still in it?

For the same reason people actually do burn down their own homes while they're inside, non-metaphorically: they're fucking stupid.

Computer what is the street value of 1 ounce of gold?

View attachment 7023940

Computer why is For Knox saying our gold is worth as much as a multi pack of cereal?

View attachment 7023948

Ohh good lord, its worse than we could have ever imagined ITS SET THAT LOW TO COMBAT INFLATION!

Guess that the total value of ALL the gold at Fort Knox according to their OWN website, just go on and get a number in your head before I tell you. Keep in mind, this is supposed to be half of the united states TOTAL gold wealth reserve, the richest nation in the world


Thats not even one Nimitz class carrier or hell a 10th of 1 bridge collapse. THAT OUR FISCAL BACKINGS VALUE

The emperor has no clothes.

The price of gold in Ft. Knox is totally unrelated to the value of USD. The dollar is a fiat currency and has been for over 50yrs.

So if you take that into account the $42.22/Oz doesn't hold up. You have to use today's market price. (147,300,000 x 2896.51) = 426,655,923,000. 426.6 Billion USD at market value.
The annoying thing is that even if Ft Knox only has half the gold reserves, that's just under $1T at market value, and the total amount of US currency in circulation is over $2T.

Kinda would make it tough to go back to gold backed currency, unless we doubled the amount of gold, the gold market doubled in value, or we devalued the Dollar by 50%.

I'd like to go back to gold too, but we've really fiated things up.
 
Let’s talk about Trump’s accomplishments so far:

> Egg prices higher than ever
> Cucked on Mexico and Canadian tariffs despite no improvement from their border security
> No tax reform, no extension of TCJA, and we still have tax on tips
> Ukraine war is still going on
> DOGE is a flop, with department heads outright ignoring orders and lawsuits blocking action
> Trump can’t wrangle Congress, everything’s being done through executive orders
> Cabinet is a flop. DOJ stonewalling on Epstein list. MLK Jr. and JFK files nowhere to be found. Tulsi Gabbard and RFK Jr. get confirmed and then don’t do anything?

Is this it? What the hell happened to this president?

We are in for a rude awakening come the mid-terms. And it gets worse. Youngkin is out and we are going to get a blue wave in the Virginia governor race. Oh yeah, and all those Federal employees who got fired? They’re moving to swing states and will vote Democrat.

Trump single-handedly screwed the Republican party for the next twenty years, at least.

‘B-b-but Trump’s approval rating is——‘ Shut the fuck up. Polls have error retard. Every president starts out with good ratings. Once people realize Trump isn’t fixing anything and just making the problems worse, his numbers will tank and bring the rest of the GOP down with him.

So much for dodging a bullet.

WERE A MONTH IN AND TRUMP HASNT RE-ONSHORED ALL OUR INDUSRTY AND RESPAWNED ALL THE CULLED BIRDS AND COWS!!!!! WHY HASNT RFK EXTRACTED ALL THE RED 40 AND COVID JABS FROM OUR BODIES AND WHY DIDNT DRUMPF GIVE ME TWOOOO SCOOOOOOOPSSS!!!?!,??!
It's funny, the sheer amount of shit trump has already done has caused the doomer internal programming to skip to line 58 -> Complain that he hasn't done enough near the end of his term. The internal clock now glitches out and thinks it's year 3 or something instead of one singular month.
Trump still has 47 months to go so if you want to make your dick hard, multiply everything that yas just happened by 48. Strap in boys, there's no brakes.
 
Another flight, this one out of atlanta was forced to redirect and land early

somthing about smoke in the cockpit

the heck is going on up there?
The carbon seal on one of the engines failed. After landing, the plane was fixed and flying again in 3 hours. The engine was already under suspicion and that's likely why the issue was resolved so quickly.
 
the heck is going on up there?
An aviation event that ends in 0 deaths is literally a nothingburger. Things like smoke in the cabin wouldn't be reported on beyond maybe local news, but due to the korean disaster and the DC disaster every little event gets put on fox news and CNN. According to the data, January 2025 was one of the safest months in commercial aviation history ever.
