I mean, yeah? In general the larger the audience, the more people are watching who dislike, used to like, feel tepid about the show, or otherwise are only interested in watching for pop culture/water cooler talk reasons. The smaller the audience, the more likely to just be diehard fans or those generally pleased with the show every week.

It's hard to have a positive attitude when the show you've loved for nearly two decades keeps shifting and making changes to cater to idiots on Facebook who only care about flashy strategy and big moves and idols every round, and can't handle basic human drama anymore without getting bored.


You know this is one thing I did like about this season is that edge of extinction forced them to give us some real human scenes. Like, I don't think Chris being sad about not being perfect was the ideal scenario but it was certainly real and true emotion.

Was really rooting for Victoria, and as much as Chris was meh for me I have to say he played as good of a game as he could have coming back at that point and I give him props for it. Sucks that Devens is the only returnee we will get from this season. I don't think this season was as bad as some of you guys, but it definitely could have been a lot better. I might just be a filthy casual at this point but I think having Rob and Sandra will be fun next season.

I think the Davis situation is more unique than just tanking. If they just sat him for no reason then yes its absolutely tanking. But sitting a player who says he wants to be traded and has massive trade value isn't tanking, it's being sensible as an injury would potentially massively reduce his value.

Tanking teams are the teams that basically roll out their G-league teams and sit all their best players for no reason. Pelicans do not sit Davis if he doesn't ask for a trade / says he won't resign


Okay so who tanked?

Biden had some announcement bonus going on, and if you look back, basically everyone had one. It's dying down a little bit now. He is still in the lead but at this time last year Clinton was like a 50 point favorite, so it definitely is far from over. And honestly I think the polls are undersampling young people, they just don't answer phones and their percentage of the vote increased in the last two elections.


True but Bernie was an unknown quantity at that point. He isnt now.

Which means youre basically hoping for Warren/Harris/Mayor Pete to similarly catch fire and I dont think any of them have Bernies magnetism


I think Bernie is the best shot besides Biden, though still less likely. His biggest strengths are fundraising, the fact he is the second choice of most Biden voters, and his strength being greater in the early voting states than in general polling. So if he does well early, kills it in debate and wins over some Biden voters and continues being able to engage massive enthusiasm he definitely has a shot and it's more likely than it was in 2016.

joe biden is not an absolute moron and absolutely knows that is a farce, he just thinks we are total rubes.

he is just saying campaign trail "we gotta work together folks we are all americans this is not normal" shit because his platform is 'a return to normalcy'. he wants to trick us stupid people with the memory of a goldfish who now love george w bush into thinking donald trump is an aberration and not just the natural continuation of republican politics that he is. he wants us to think if we just do obama part 2 we can rest easy and stop being concerned about the world.

do you guys remember the awful daily show 'rally to restore sanity' stunt from back in the day? his entire campaign is basically that. or to put it into better terms:

I agree. This episode showed both Jamie and Dany making the wrong but more entertaining choice over their good points and caring about folks.

I find it hard to believe that Jon will be able to rally anyone behind him, they were too scared of Ramsay much less Dany. Why didnt you just marry her, Jon. Its the absolute least you could have done to secure peace and its something that girls are trained from girlhood to do- have sex with someone they dont want to secure peace. And you got off lucky compared to them. They dont get the choice.

If we are gonna keep fttp it is absolutely imperative that we have ranked choice voting. And the Senate should be abolished along with the electoral college. Voting days should be a holiday, everyone should automatically be registered to vote at 18, civics classes should be taught in all public schools, and the voting age should be lowered to 16. We should try actually being a democracy.

The fact that the US is not homogeneous is not the issue. the fact that the government is consistently and by design more conservative than the population is. Even if the public opinion never reached as left that of a less homogeneous place, it isn't reaching where we actually are either. Because we have a
oligarchy. And I don't buy that the lack of a homogeneous society will be as impactful in the future, gen z is the most diverse, left wing generation so far. And it isn't because they are young, studies show that the myth people grow more conservative as they age is not true, it is that more wealthy people are more conservative and poorer people die younger.

You don't think there's a reason the meme isn't phrasing the top row as "replace private insurance with a Medicare-like program for everyone"?

So let me get this right...you want the meme to identify Biden as supporting Medicare for all in case the voters are confused by the Democrats like Biden lying about what Medicare for all means, but think it's dishonest of it to say Bernie supports Medicare for all because of the theoretical possibility that voters might not understand what Medicare for all means?

And about tax loopholes, are you suggesting the meme is wrong or just mad that it isn't cited? Like, do you think Biden generally or specifically supports closing any tax loopholes? Has he ever proposed doing so or talked about it? Do you think he would vote for a bill doing so? What sort of loopholes do you think he would support closing? I've certainly never heard him mention any.

The next episode opens on a giant celebration, drogon roasting various meats in the background and the four remaining prostitutes of king's landing awkwardly hitting on the unsullied. Dany is visibly wasted and regalling an absolutely obliterated Tyrion with stories of how funny the looks of the faces of the deadly enemy combatant bakers and smithies where when they realized they were about to die as Jon Snow patrols the party to make sure no raper's are about. Someone asks Bran to do a keg stand. It's the only scene everyone agrees was extremely well written.

The issue with Dany is that she wants to be a queen, and inherently unjust and cruel position thats only real path to being 'heroic' and seem good is through proving your own self worth and earning the admiration of your people. This is ultimately what Stannis goes through when he realizes that he can insist the law says he is king all day, but if he wants his claim to be recognized he has to prove he deserves to be king by doing his duty to save the realm from the white walkers. Dany earns admiration and power in Essos...Dany has wanted to be queen of WESTEROS, and grown up being told stories of how she and her brother are the last dragons, and when they come to Westeros they will be greeted as heroes. She finds out not only is she not the last dragon, but there is one with a better claim, and the people actually love him and do not care for her. When she ultimately realizes that she cannot earn the right to being Queen through admiration, and ALSO does not even have the legal birthright claim, she decides that the power and her dream of reclaiming the throne is more important and chooses to rule through fear and show of power. Much like how I said earlier that Jaime DOES actually care about people besides Cersei, Dany cared about being a good person too. She just cares about being Queen more than any of that, those values come second. The characters keep being faced with choices that force them to decide what is most important to them, and I don't think anyone has made a choice that was out of character so far.
