Agreed. Our resident clown is deeper than we think.
The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

Indeed. If a deity exists, they've done nothing to indicate their displeasure with me so far.

Chance of Sassy Response - 50%

Chance of Humorous Response - 25%

If we're right, people lose homes. People lose jobs. People lose retirement savings, people lose pensions. You know what I hate about f*cking banking? It reduces people to numbers. Here's a number - every 1% unemployment goes up, 40,000 people die, did you know that? - The Big Short

i hope I don't have to cross post this.


Last time I was around here, I took a stab at writing an issue. I remember there being more macros than the ones I found in the official guide, Especially I remember different macros for either male random names and female random names, and a macro for making a random name backwards. The latter I also saw in some issue regarding aliens.

Where did these macros go?
