What Republicans are doing to the government. They’ve always wanted to do this, Elon is just their fall guy.

I can’t think of a more helpful thing he could have said.

“No money can be wasted if it’s going into our donors’ pockets.”

You’d think he’d know how to dress for one.

I said he should be fired, and nothing else. You are putting words in my mouth and clearly arguing in bad faith. Feel free to take the last word if it makes you feel better, there’s no point in continuing to talk to you.

Don’t mix criticisms of how someone does their job with encouraging death threats. He is the head writer. If the writing has gotten worse, it’s his responsibility.

It was a joke, Emil, I’m sorry I hurt your feelings.

Skyrim is the same way. I really hope they adopt combat similar to Mordhau or Chivalry for ES6, but that seems about as likely as them firing Emil Pagliarulo to bring the writing standard back up.

Also, the characters still look vaguely horrifying, just in a more crisp but less charming way than they used to.

I haven’t played the remaster, but the old Oblivion leveling system was exceedingly hard to do efficiently unless you planned in advance. It very much needed a rework, although skyrim dumbed it down way too much, in my opinion.

Basically, among all the skills, like destruction magic, blade, sneak, you pick 7 (I think it’s 7) major skills. Those get a boost at the beginning. When you raise your various major skills 10 times, you level up. When you level up, you get to raise three attributes, like strength, speed, or intelligence. You get bonuses to how much you can raise an attribute per level, with 1 being the minimum and 5 being the max. The bonuses are determined by what skills you raised during the last level. For example, the sneak skill is tied to the agility attribute, so raising your sneak skill gets you a bigger agility bonus on leveling up. So, to optimize it, you’d have to raise your major skills exactly 10 times (so none of them go to waste) and fill out the bonuses by raising minor skills, which don’t count towards a level up, to get the ideal spread of +5 to 3 attributes per level.

The main problem with it in Oblivion was that the enemies grow stronger as you level up, and since a lot of people didn’t understand the leveling system, they’d wind up with horribly underpowered characters in the late game. Some people deliberately remained at level 1 to keep the enemies easy.

It’s not him trolling us, it’s his dementia trolling us. Or maybe his plain old stupidity. Honestly it’s hard to tell at this point.

I guess Trump merch is exempted from the tariffs?

I respect preferred pronouns and am strongly in favor of reforming/replacing capitalism, but preferring boneless wings is a step too far.

If evil, then why hot?

The prophet hath spoken. Burn the heathens who would pronounce Em Spaint improperly.

I think the only one with standing would be Abrego Garcia, and he’s got bigger problems right now.

Being a billionaire is bad for your brain. Stands to reason the richest guy would be the worst affected.

The book worked on too many people for this to be funny to me.

I already never go there, but now I can have a chip on my shoulder about it.

It must be nice to have so much money and freedom from consequences that that’s the kind of thing that bothers you.

The working and middle classes are effectively in a permanent recession now, anyway.
