Or he watched one (1) JJ Abrams movie and is just trying to use the cool kids' space jargon in an attempt to get people on his side
They've admitted to cancelling ideas before, getting to various stages of production before going back to the drawing board, but always (and appear to still) insist that it is in development on some level. That's why Newell's responses to questions about hl3 are usually some form of "we have nothing new to share." Valve doesn't like sharing until they're in the final stages of development, and hl3 has never made it that far.
When I look at the steam store Portal has a price tag of $9.99.
Portal didn't come out until 2007 with the orange box, which also had hl2: episode 2 (and tf2), but the base game of hl2 came out standalone in 2004. This giveaway is a celebration of hl2's 20th anniversary, so maybe they'll do a portal giveaway in 2027.
Voting isn't an endorsement for literally everything a candidate says and does. No one even knows who you vote for unless you tell them. It's about picking the best of the choices. Your lack of a vote is just as much an endorsement of genocide as a vote for Trump, especially since he won.
Yeah people just seem determined to make terrible choices. I am glad people are finally leaving twitter--but--like--why so late!? Why to Bluesky!?!
But I actually wound up making an account on Bluesky today and followed a few accounts from people I like. I figure at the very least, if they're able to successfully move once, maybe they'll be more willing to do it again at some point? Hopefully they come to Mastodon and I can follow them with the account I've already had there for years now...
It absolutely does. Go out with a bang, not a whimper! Show the people that you wanted to fight for them! Show them what you really think of this stupid, hateful rich asshole! Have a spine! Voters' memory is short, sure, but it wouldn't be nothing! And there are vulnerable people in the interim who need to know they're not alone!
But of course this is the team that thought leaning even more conservative would win them an election. Of course they'll happily wave this in.
He absolutely has a choice in exactly how welcoming he wants to be
It's because being "gentlemanly" by sitting back and letting this happen is the absolute pinnacle of falling victim to the paradox of intolerance. Trump has zero tolerance for democracy. Letting this traitor back into office to dismantle any hope of free and fair elections in the future is fucking stupid, and the more decorum shown to this fascist moron, the more his future actions are legitimized to the public.
It's true that refusing to hand over the office in any way is undemocratic in its own right. I can't pretend to know what the exact right answer is: the dumbass, impressionable electorate put us here by voting how it did. But smiling and shaking hands while this fuck prepares to dismantle our freedoms is so, so dumb.
Oh cool, good job waiting until AFTER the election to do this incredibly basic and easy move, everyone. Jesus fucking christ
I thought it was the new pizza rat
