in fact they postponed this surrender specifically to not negatively impact turnout, and then carefully arranged 8 votes from folks who won't be up for re-election anytime soon. They KNOW they are hated by their own constituents. And they know there are no consequences for it.

lol you’re an utter idiot if you don’t realize that the specific 8 who would vote yes was arranged and planned by part leadership.

DAMMIT I meant IFPA (International Flipper Pinball) policies, not FSPA (Free State Pinball Association) policies just dumb typo. (The FSPA is the org that runs most local leagues - and Kevin is the president)

I wholeheartedly support @arborelia.net ’s position that the OBX tournament very obviously did not adhere to IFPA’s own policies on inclusion. Therefore WPPR points should be removed from the tournament. Not doing so puts IFPA in direct violation of its own rules. 4/4

As many already know (but others may not), Kevin runs a huge chunk of pinball in VA. He’s the IFPA state rep, owns games at several locations, runs leagues & tournaments year round, and organizes/TDs/hosts the FSPA State finals. It is ESSENTIAL that he upholds FSPA anti-discrimination policies. 3/4

And I somehow missed any of the posts about this incident over the last two days until now. (I also can’t find any convo on the IFPA discord). Thank you for speaking up, thank you to the others who also spoke up such as @scoutpilgrim.bsky.social . I’m sorry for seeing this so late. 2/4

bullshit. I live in Northern Virginia. Practically everyone I know is furloughed (or was fired by DOGE). Every single one of them would absolutely HATE IT if Dems caved now.

the furloughed workers i know and am related to would HATE YOUR FUCKING GUTS for advocating for this, dipshit.

just admit you're a coward, or a plant. no human could possibly as cowardly and disingenuous as you without being paid to be.

Fuck you, coward. Fuck you fuck you fuck you. Practically everyone I know is furloughed, and they would all say FUCK YOU.

Where is that bootlicking shit? Seems at least somewhat likely it was picked just cuz it looks old timey and the owner isn’t aware of what the Pinkertons were.

Fuck you, coward.

When Leftists say voting for Dems is pointless, I understand why many get upset, but they are talking about this exact kind of thing.

Yes it’s upsetting but they keep being proven right.

Note to autocorrect: our punk band was a *touring* band, not a tribute band to a British 20th century mathematician.

Used to travel the country in a Turing punk rock band. Not just cities, but tons of small towns, too. The more bumfuck the town, the better the show went usually, too! But what I wanted to say is the very most racist people we ever encountered were always in rural central PA.

Honestly same. If he *wasnt* swapping it for another puck he had hidden in his pants, then I don’t know what the fuck he thought he was doing.

Fuck you, coward.

On the other hand, caving at a crucial moment for zero benefit would be precisely on brand for Democrat leadership.

Scoring is so weird in NGG. I don’t think getting good golf scores (other than holes in one) matter much. I haven’t really figured out where the points are in that game.
