Was on a vacation to Kansas City like 20 years ago, while in a park I saw, scratched into a wooden picnic table, "TINA IS THE HOTTEST PREGNANT BITCH ALIVE"

Shoutout to Tina.

I'm playing the remake now so it's fresh in my mind, but this is basically what Final Fantasy Tactics did in 1997.

But no 80s pop, unfortunately. Maybe Delita should've taken the princess while "Cradle of Love" by Billy Idol plays.

The real odd thing about that is to her species, that's equivalent to like a 20 year human relationship.

It's really good. Like, better than it should be? I've liked it more than River City Girls 2, personally.

More importantly, what's a j-hole?

You can't do that on a Magic set

Looks like a new sign for Cup foods as well. (I used to live like 3 blocks from there)

LIZ: What's this we both would agree business? I certainly don't agree.
JACK: You? Voting for a black woman, Liz? You didn't even vote for Obama.
LIZ: Well that's because...wait, how did you know that?JACK: Elon Musk is a close friend of mine, he has access to certain...information.

LIZ: So you admit it's just a big lie.
JACK: We all lie when it comes to politics, like you saying global warming and trans people both exist.
LIZ: They both do exist!
JACK: Sure, and Trump will end the war on day 1. But I think we can both agree that things would be much worse under Kamala.

LIZ: Is that a bulletproof vest?
JACK: Yes I have a meeting in Portland on Tuesday, and it's a war zone.
LIZ: There's no way you actually believe that.
JACK: Of course not, Liz, but NBC has some negotiations upcoming with the FCC so I need to look the part.

JENNA: So Taylor Swift wrote a diss track about me.
TRACY: How'd know it's about you?
JENNA: Everything's about me.
TRACY: Oh I get it, like when they call the next number at the DMV.
JENNA: And look at this! Barbie, coke, song, adorable, Chihuahua, it's exactly my last weekend with Micky Rourke.

I just think it's a neat song, a little more minimal than a lot of the overproduced pop of the 80s (and I'm a big Madonna fan). I like the pregnant pause before the final refrain. Is it in my top 10 of 80s pop songs? Almost certainly not. But I do enjoy it!

SORRY TO KEEP YELLING AT YOU OVER THIS!

And for real it doesn't look good to a community of people who are the target of MAGA's antics to sign a petition to try to re-allow the MAGA hat guy in. Like what were you thinking? What positive outcome did you hope to expect by posting the names online? Bunch of MAGA dumbasses.

Here's my take about the *current* MTG drama. (different then the one I posted about yesterday *sigh*)

It's perfectly reasonable for a tournament organizer to refuse someone into their tournament for continuing to wear MAGA hats. Their tournament, their rules.

I mean I can yell at you for that here if you need me to!

I mean like what you like, I happen to think it's a great song (though I'm not a big fan of Limp Bizkit's cover) but if it's not for you that doesn't affect me at all, unless you happen to be in my car and turn it down when it comes up.
