    Breaking News Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapses

    Oh they built the ship Titanic, And when they had it through, They said they had a ship, That the water would not go through, But the Lord's almighty hand, Said that ship would never stand, It was sad when that great ship went down, Oh it was sad (it was sad), It was sad (it was sad), It was...

    What if the Nine Nations of America were real countries?

    You appear to be missing the map? I assume you're talking about this model: That Nine nation model of the US is fundamentally incorrect and lumps regions together that are actually quite distinct. I personally think the 11 nation model is more correct: Thing is, if our borders were...

    Breaking News Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapses

    You're underestimating the importance of that bridge. It wasn't just a commuter bridge, but rather it was on of the main bridges for heavy road freight along the I95 corridor*. For those unaware of the US Highway system, I95 is the primary interstate highway that runs north-south along the...

    History Western Civilization, Rome and Cyclical History

    One thing I think the Macro-historical analysis you're pushing is lacking in is accounting for geography, which has massive influences on civilizations and the people living there. We know people adapt over time to the geography they find themselves in, and likewise geography influences...

    PC Gaming Baldurs Gate 3

    Oh, with other characters who do not have such strong storyline connections to their class I have no qualms about respeccing them. Shadowheart just has such a strong and compelling story I find I enjoy it more if I wait to respec her to Healing domain after certain storyline events take place...

    PC Gaming Baldurs Gate 3

    I refuse to respec Shadowheart just for party optimization as it really undercuts her character story. I will repsec her after certain events in Act 2 if she goes down the good path, but still not to War domain... Domains are granted by a the god that sponsors the cleric, and neither Shar nor...

    PC Gaming Baldurs Gate 3

    It really bothers me the one Paladin is such an evil bitch... and that a good playthrough gets TWO Druids. They really didn't consider party balance when designing the companions. You do get a passable core, but the only role you have any real variety in is main melee tank. One arcane caster...

    Leftist Child Grooming

    Goddamn Yankees rewriting history yet again. No, the first successful English Colony in the Americas wasn't Plymouth, Plymouth was the second, the first was Jamestown Virginia in 1607 as good 13 years earlier. Larger point stands though. This is very much the case, by the time of the American...

    Leftist Child Grooming

    I've covered the lead up to the Revolution in other posts and it was about a lot more than taxes, and in fact, when you look at the full list of things leading up to it, it was clear it what about their Rights as Englishmen (in the second sense, some colonies even specifically referred back to...

    Gamergate 2 has now become official

    I'm not lionizing anyone, I am pointing out that other, older, establishment Conservatives voices either directly contradict or are neutral towards video games, mainly because you can't seem to get through your myopic skull that the older Conservative spaces are not what you think they are, and...

    Gamergate 2 has now become official

    Actually, you're in the main wrong about it being the more oldschool Conservative media being against Gaming. That's strictly a Daily Wire thing, and it's not linked to them wanting to work for National Review, or anything of the sort (In point of fact, while they don't cover them as much as...

    Gamergate 2 has now become official

    To make it clear, Walsh doesn't speak for the SoCons in general on video games, here's RedState's recent opinion article on the matter. For those who don't know RedState is part of the Salem Media Network's conservative opinion websites, meant mainly for grassroots Trad and So Con opinion and...

    Business & Finance TikTok Thread

    So, first question: do you think TikTok and/or other foreign owned websites and applications are a threat to the United States and its citizens from either from an espionage perspective or a unconventional warfare perspective? If yes, then how exactly would you counter such a threat in a way...

    peter Zeihan 2020

    It makes ideological sense from the perspective of the radical left. Turks are considered "indigenous" (just, you know, ignore that entire migration and invasion historically) and "brown" while Israelis are considered "colonists" and "white" (you know, just ignoring that the Jews have evidence...

    Starfleet (Star Trek) vs Freman (Dune)

    Firstly, no, Dune Lasers will not interact with Trek Shields in the same way. Just because they're both a technology called "shields" doesn't mean they are the same thing. Dune Shields works based on "Holtzman Effect" and explicitly harness the "repellant force of subatomic particles". IE...
