The police person quoting him back

So I have got, I Robert Richens, on the 30th of May 2025, said the following. I accidentally killed her; at least I admitted to it. I am going to miss GTA. I am going to get life.

It’s honestly crazy to me that that’s what someone is thinking about. GTA V wasn’t so good to be this obsessed over GTA VI.

I laughed out loud when I finally realized what band was saying this.

Humorously, the lead singer is named Jim (Adkins), but the band’s name comes from the backing vocalist/guitarist Tom’s brother, also named Jim.

The band’s name came from a crayon drawing made after an incident between [Tom] Linton’s younger brothers, Jim and Ed Linton, who fought frequently. Jim usually won, but Ed sought revenge by drawing a picture of Jim shoving the Earth into his mouth; Ed captioned the picture “Jimmy eat world”.

I love that there’s always a new crop of suckers.

We look for people who are like Olympian athletes, with characteristics of, you know, obsession, infinite ambition.

“It’s people who want to do incredible things and have a lot of fun while doing so,” he says.

They must be building something really important!

The website belongs to Rilla, a New York-based tech business which sells AI-based systems that allow employers to monitor sales representatives when they are out and about, interacting with clients.

🤣 so fucking embarrassing! Are you “disrupting” sales, douchebag? What year is this?

You know you’re on the wrong side when Creed quietly drops your festival.

Ludacris (who “wasn’t even supposed to be on there”), Shinedown, Morgan Wade, and Carter Faith all dropped out once they realized how big of a tool Kid Rock is.

Wyoming always sends their “best”

Also gross!

Oh gross!

Do they also sell 50 caliber armor piercing bullets everywhere? They had those too

Tangentially related, the military has been “losing” ammunition and weapons for a shockingly long time, and in the 80s Fort Bragg (the largest military base) was remarkably easy to rob.

In 1986, investigators for the United States Congress and Department of Defense reported growing concern in the U.S. Armed Forces over missing weapons. Hundreds of millions of dollars in military arms, ammunition, and explosives had disappeared.

A congressional report on Fort Bragg cited a large amount of missing ordnance recovered around the post, including 148 pounds of plastic explosives, 142 pounds of TNT, 1,080 feet of detonating cord, 13 hand grenades, and 35 antipersonnel land mines. Some of the weapons and explosives turned up in private homes.

From Bring the War Home: The White Power Movement and Paramilitary America.

And that was just at Fort Bragg, in the 80s when post-Vietnam violent white supremacy was taking shape.

The Branch Davidians also had a 50 caliber in 1995. No one is sure how they acquired it.

I have to imagine desperate soldiers might take to selling it instead.

He told Business Insider. “They were pressured to see the movie. Your military superior, that’s not your shift manager at Taco Bell or Starbucks. They have complete and total control over you.”

No shit. Why do you think most people don’t join the cult? It’s been awful for literally generations.

I’m sorry, you’re saying the developers themselves guzzle urine? Seems a little harsh.

This was literally the guy who started his entire political career in earnest by calling in to Fox News and talking about how Obama wasn’t “American” because he’s black. Trump found his political fame because he advocated the “birther” conspiracy.

It’s honestly crazy that anyone could be surprised. He’s been up front about his racism for fifteen years now.

I believe that most of the knowledge worth having is found in books, and book critics have a vital function in introducing the public to important books

I agree with the first part, but I have never once read a book review by a newspaper critic. I never find them of value, I’d rather read almost anyone else’s review.

I read a lot of books, but this type of book critic is not as valuable as the author claims.

I find the wording of the article to be remarkable. “At the opposite end of the supply chain.”

Eric (not his real name) was no longer just a consumer of China’s spy-cam porn industry, but a victim.

A “consumer” who has admittedly been watching this type of “spy cam” footage for twenty years (since he was a teen, according to the article) and never once thought “wait, what if that was me?”

Then when he grows a conscience in his thirties he contacts the BBC.

This is of course the same game he’s been playing since 2016. His fans are just legitimately too blinded by their cult to realize it.

Literally every time. Now that he’s not running, he’ll just keep repeating it for every election because it works for his idiot base of Christian nationalists.

This is the original source the podcast cites if anyone wants the information faster.

I thought it was really obvious I was talking about the movie. He plays the main character of the movie.

Sorry, let me match your tone.

You… thought I was talking about the game and not the movie? It seems clear to me that the YouTube celebrity wouldn’t also be in the game, but I’ll clarify.

They certainly seem like the people to know who is wanting to move somewhere with less climate chaos!

A two-hour movie based on a thirty-minute game where the only person on screen (in the movie) is a YouTube celebrity.

It’s really hard to get excited.

The thing in the numbers that we’ve been experiencing is the shift among some of the folks who voted for him — his voting coalition — not necessarily the governing support he has, but his voting coalition," said Lee Miringoff, director of the Marist Institute for Public Opinion.

That coalition included younger people, Latinos and independents, all of whom Trump is struggling with in this survey.

The non-Republican dumbshits that voted for Trump are already regretting it? You don’t say.
