He'll be able to work some sort of grift off of it for sure but I feel like this definitely gives some Republicans an "out."

Now they just have to take it.

Yeah a lot of people might not be aware just how heinous Japans actions were in The Second Sino-Japanese War (the Chinese War of Resistance) in the lead-up to Asias involvement in WWII.

The Rape of Ninjing and Unit 731 are just two of the atrocities we know of.

Implying that Japan is now "back for more" and with frens this time is indeed pretty dark.

I've shucked probably 100s of those WD essentials and they just had a little SATA -> USB adapter on it. It's been a few years but it doesn't seem like they'd make a whole new PCB just to include USB.

It's kind of a bummer. Aliens and Bilderbergers and Government Mind Control used to be fun little thought experiments to smoke a J and play what-if with your friends; but you can't even bring that stuff up anymore without someone thinking you're serious and bringing up adrenochrome or (((Globalists)))

This timeline sucks, I want to go back to when everyone knew the X-Files was a TV show and fascists kept their brainrot on AM radio.

I feel like like the QAnon stuff swept up huge swaths of otherwise unconnected conspiracy theorists. Flat earth, chemtrails, aliens, all the "classic" conspiracies just kind of got co-opted and folded into the big crazy tent of insane people.

What about the animated spinoff about the 3rd backup targeting officer on a non-capital Empire refueling ship?

Yeah a lot of us stopped caring a long time ago. The market has been saturated with Star Wars.

Red Lobster has been going downhill for decades. It's probably better to put it out of its misery than let it limp along for 20 more years.

I don't see any "corporate theft" here at all. It's not like a mom & pop was bought and then closed. It's just another shitty corporate owned business unable to operate as if it's still 1970 closing their doors. Nothing of value was lost.
